First of all you have to be totally stock (stock recovery, stock ROM(unrooted) and re-locked bootloader) if you want to get OTA update. And the most important info:
You can't get OTA update from different region
You can't change your CID or get super CID without S-OFF

Flash Unlocked/Developer ROM WWE_6.12.1540.4

I got a M8 currently installed is stock 5.0.1 - 4.16.401.13 / Bootloader unlocked with HTC Dev / S-ON / HBOOT-3.19.0.0000 (using custom Kernel and Xposed)
I would like to update to WWE_6.12.1540.4 using this downloaded RUU here http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/
to have newest firmware, use the ROM or use a custom ROM based on the Android M builds with ahving the new firmware.
Can I flash this Unlocked/Developer ROM WWE_6.12.1540.4 (and flash TWRP again) or would I have to wait for the official RUU, relock my BL and flash and then unlock the BL again?
Thanks to HTC for making things so complicated btw.
All this HBOOT CID S-ON S-OFF Firmware BL - Chaos... meh.

No need for ruu, you can restore stock nand and recovery for your cid/mid and get 6.0 MM OTA update from H E R E

And what about firmware (Radio)? I thought flashing or upgrading the firmware is only possible with locked bootloader or unlocked + S-OFF.

Radio is in firmware.zip(which is part of all bigger ota's) along with other stuff(adsp,wcnss,recovery etc).. I've never relocked my bootloader(I have S-on). For ota's, you need non-rooted stock rom or nandroid and stock recovery. For RUU on the other side, if you have S-on, you'll need to relock your bootloader.

Done all the steps and downloading the OTA via device as I am typing.
Thank you very much for your input, Sir.

Bricked?

Please help!! I tried to install a 3.x.x firmware ROM via TWPR 2.8.6.1 while my phone was still have 2.x.x firmware. The installation itself was succesful but when i tried to boot system it kept booting into bootloader screen. My phone is still S-ON and software is 2.11.425.7.

MM roms won't run on LP firmware. You need to roll back or upgrade your firmware to 6.0.

Ruu
Can you boot in bootloader ? Flash Ruu or Rom for 2.11.425.7 firmware in TWRP. Probably if firmware and rom version 2.11.425.7 is the same you can normal boot phone (if u see white screen with HTC logo you must WAAAAAAAAIT), or install RUU and update phone official to newest firmware and sofrware if u have Son. Next if u want, unlock bootloader and make SOFF and flash any rom if u want Sorry for my ENG

Bajdaspl: Yes i can boot into bootloader and can you please tell me how i can update its firmware? I've been told that to upgrade firmware my phone needs to be
S-OFF but my phone is still S-ON. I can't even find any RUU for my firmware version anywhere on the Internet. Would relocking helps????
