Help!

Hello all,
So here's why I'm posting:
I'm having an issue with my T-Mobile HTC One M8 phone. The phone was working great until I tried to install a new third-party TWRP. I don't know if it was miscommunication or what, but in the process of installing it (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ocvavpttfo...ersion_Fix.img), the phone started having issues.
The initial issue was that the phone would get stuck during boot up. The phone was at the current 2.22 build # but in order to make it at least usable again, I flashed an RUU (1.57 build #) and that seemed to fix everything. But then when I went back from stock recovery to my original TWRP, and flashed a recent backup, the phone froze again during boot up. This process worked many times and as recently as yesterday, but now since trying to install that third-party TWRP, it doesn't. I've tried various things but nothing is working. I know that since I can still reach HBOOT and TWRP that there is hope, but I'm at my wits end as to what to do.
I should also mention that I was using the ViperOne M8 ROM (2.1.0). My phone is unlocked/rooted & S-OFF. There were no issues with it again until I tried to install that new TWRP.
I really love my phone, and hope someone on here can help me. After re-RUUing my phone, I'm going to leave it at 1.57 build # and stock recovery (1.12 #) (and USB Debugging on) until I hear from someone. Basically, I just want my phone to be normal again so I can upgrade back to build # 2.22, flash my custom TWRP recovery, and then flash my most recent backup which included the most recent ViperOne M8 update.

[Q] New with M8, unlocked, trying OTA with no success

There's a new OTA this morning but when I try to run it it brings me to bootloader. (unlocked, rooted, never flashed a custom rom)

From what I read, I need to install the proper recovery, relock and then update. Problem is, I can't find the proper number for my version. I read I can use a lower number but when I tried it told me it failed security signature. Any help would be appriciated.
Should I just go to a custom 4.4.4 like pac or paranoid? Not my first android just never seen this issue but then again, only usually did this after support stopped on my phones.

You need a stock recovery and stock rom to flash the OTA.
Try to flash stock recovery for your CID and retry

You can also grab the stock recovery.img from the OTA that you downloaded. Instead of "installing" it select "install later" and copy the OTA.zip to computer(you can find OTA.zip in downloads folder on internal storage). You can then extract the ota.zip, inside it you'll find the firmware.zip, extract that one and inside the firmware.zip you'll find the stock recovery.img. Sounds like a lot of effort but it's pretty simple...
If you're planning on going to 4.4.4 custom ROM it should probably be an AOSP one and not Sense based. You'll need 4.4.4 firmware to have sense based ROMs work correctly, if you don't have it then y ou'll have issues with radio(bluetooth, wifi, data etc) not working. As far as I know that problem doesn't occur with AOSP but I'm not willing to bet anything on it

Thanks guys. Think I posted too soon. Relocked phone before flashing proper recovery. Working on that now.
Will give both methods a try.
Edit: took the recovery update, relocked and did the ota. All is great Thanks again.

Relocking the bootloader is not necessary to install OTA.

M8 No OS

Hi all, I seem to have wiped my OS. I updated to lollipop and was having issues with the wifi. I read somewhere to do a factory reset in recovery so I did this. Once the phone rebooted, I began to install the some apps and began to have issues with Titanium backup. (Searching for installed apps I think) also Spotify refused to run. Also the phone kept complaining that TV has stopped working.
I went back into recovery and selected advance wipe and wiped all expect the otg something.
Rebooted the phone and was left the phone for about 10 mins and it was still on the White HTC screen. I restarted it and went into recovery and when I selected reboot it said no OS installed.
I have no idea what to do.
This what getvar gives me

What files do i need to download and if someone could point me to an idiots guide for installing it I would be forever grateful.

You're going to have to try and get a backup from the latest o2 UK M8 as that's what you have

Thanks for the reply. What RUU zip do I need
Edit to add I know that the nandroid backup is from this thread
This is the one for my phone CID O2__001 / O2___102
1.54.206.5 - TWRP Thanks to Sensor1 but I'm not sure how to install it
2nd Edit fixed it with the rom in this thread

Tried to install VemonOne and now have a messed up phone with no OS

Ok, i tried to install VenonOne, it installed first time but my wifi didnt work, so i searched around and found out i needed to update my firmware, which needed S-off, which i cant becuase i dont have the money for sunshine. and problem after problem and following half arsed tutoials online solved nothing. i can only go to bootloader and recovery. not sure what to do,
i have twrp installed
Im a D*ck head and didnt make a backup becuae it 'looked easy enough'
any help would be great. would like to be using venomone but atm any os will do

Thanks guys

You probably realize it at this point; but my rule of thumb is always make a backup before flashing anything (or at a minimum, have a known good backup or known good ROM ready to flash). Its got nothing to do with how "easy" a process is. Things can go wrong even with the simplest mods, to the most knowledgeable users, and even if you do nothing wrong.
You don't need s-off to update your firmware.
Either run a Lollipop (or Marshmallow) RUU intended for your CID (relock bootloader in order to RUU). Keeping in mind that this will wipe the phone.
Alternately (such as if there is no RUU for your version), restore a stock ROM that corresponds to your current firmware, restore corresponding stock recovery. Then do OTA update, which will also update your firmware.
After updating the firmware by either of the 2 above methods, just flash TWRP back onto the phone (in case of the RUU method, you'll need to unlock the bootloader again, before you can flash TWRP) and flash your custom ROM of choice.
If you do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial numbers) we can offer some more specific assistance.

thanks for taking your time to help,

Help needed! Stuck on bootloader, can access recovery or rom

Hi!
I was trying to install stock Marshmallow Rom on my device from Lineage os 14.1 but once i installed the Rom in the recovery i got stucked on bootloader on restart. i also try to access the recovery (twrp), the device reboot on hboot. which ever option i try to get in it reboot back to hboot. i dont know which thing i have done wrong and what exactly is problem. i also searched different method to solve this issue (such as flashing RUU on adb but it give error, trying to flash new recovery it still giver error on my on command window, unlocking bootloader but again give error).
I want to bring my phone to its normal condition with any rom (stock or custom)
if any one know this issue and could help me solve this i would be really grateful.
Thanks

I am having almost the exact same issue. I dug in a little deeper and it seems that the $INTERNAL_STORAGE location /sdcard doesn't exist or has become corrupted.
