[Q] Can OTA downgrade firmware?

Hi,
I unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted my HTC One M8. Unfortunately, earlier I updated device to 2.22.401.5.
If I will restore 1.54.401.5 software, can OTA 1.54.401.5 -> 1.54.401.10 downgrade firmware from 2.22.401.5 to 1.54.401.10?
Refresh
S-On - No
S-Off - Yes
Is it possible to make S-OFF on 2.22.401.5 firmware without Sunshine?

firmware update for MM support

hi, thanks for reading this
phone details:
version-main: 2.10.166.2
mid: 0PJA10000
cid: VODAP120
bootloader relocked
S-ON
i would like to update to firmware 3.35 for MM support,
i got a backup of the phone but no stock recovery hence no OTA updates (since i had to flash twrp to be able to backup in the first place ...).
couldnt find a RUU or stock recovery image that would work with my CID i a tried quiet a few EUROPE and VODAFONE zips
is there any other way than: purchasing sunshine to S-OFF -> change the CID-> flash firmware/custom RUU? if that is the only way to go which RUU should i use after CID change?
please advice, thank you

Request at&t 6.20.502.5 stock recovery.img

Hi i have s-on with unlocked bootloader iam trying to restore back to stock using this guide here https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/guide-restore-european-htc-one-m8-to-t3072235
But iam unable to find stock recovery.img for at&t in order to proceed, Can anyone help out?
To return to "full" stock, just relock the bootloader and flash the 6.20.502.5 RUU (will wipe all user data on the phone). I don't know why that guide is advising to flash the boot.img and recovery.img before flashing the RUU. It isn't necessary.

Will this work even though the device is s-on?

Yes. RUU that is intended for your specific device version (AT&T) will work just fine with s-on. As long as it's equal or greater to version number on the phone (no "downgrading" by RUU is allowed with s-on).
S-off is only needed to run RUU for another version (need s-off to change CID, MID), or to run an older version RUU (downgrade).
