After I Unlocked my Bootloader and obtained the root access, I recently S-Offd my M8 (By using Sunshine), and today I finally get the "SuperCid" as you can see in the following strings:

My question is: Is it possible to Downgrade my Marshmallow Rom (Original with Sense7) to an Older version [HTC_M8_UL_K44_SENSE60_SECURITY_HTC_Europe_1.12.401.17_Radio_1.14.2133156.UA24G_20.18h.4096.03L_release_356030_signed] (in my opinion if older it is better!), I tried to flash the 4.4 KK, but both with Ruu.exe and Ruu.zip gave me many errors (Error 41 when .zip and The process is stopped at step 0/7 when .exe), can someone suggest me something please? :'(
P.S.: Sorry because I'm a Noob and not so good at English...
Thanks in Advance Guys!!!
"Older is better" is not really a reason. Missing numerous critical security updates, performance improvement, and a lot of other reasons would say you are incorrect with that statement. Unless you have a very specific reason to install a 2-year old OS version, its most likely a bad idea.
Error 41 is wrong MID. My guess is you got that error flashing an RUU different from the one you stated.
In any case, you need to flash the matching (KK) firmware before you can downgrade by RUU from anything before MM (that goes for LP as well).

So I'm trying to upgrade my phone to the new 4.4.4 firmware so that I can flash the new venom rom 3.x (currently on Paranoid Android Beta 4) but whenever I use fastboot getvar all, the main version is missing as shown below. So I have no clue which stock backup to flash (found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376). I tried flashing 1.54.401.5 based on my CID and boot but TWRP gives me an error every time I flash. Would appreciate some help in regards to which stock backup to flash.

Nvm, misread what you said. I don't know how to fix it, sorry.
Try one of the 1.12 backups too. 3.16 HBoot was for either the 1.12 or the 1.54 both fell in that HBoot. What error does TWRP give you? It doesn't help you saying it gives an error but you don't say what the error is, how do you expect us to help you then? Should we get out our glass ball and look for the answer in there?
I'm using a sprint m8 internationally on a permanent basis so at the very least I need a sim to work with a gsm network on the m8, tried to flash some radios (which failed). So... is there a way to purge everything 'sprint' from a htc one m8 ? Will an RUU do the trick (recommendations)?
Phone is s-off, unlocked, rooted etc. See below for the getvar dump. cid is 1's mid is dev. No luck on installing custom roms - still restricted to sprint variants.

You could convert it to the Developer Edition using the RUU and see if that works. If not, you can flash the Sprint RUU to go back to the beginning
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/ruu-m8-developer-edition-sense-1-54-t2884777 this one?
This one:
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2.exe
It's on that thread, but above is the direct link to HTCs server
" ERROR 155 The ROM Update utility cannot update your android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again" is what it shows....
So it appears something 'sprint' is blocking it. Although I suspected a full ROM,radio might work...
I have a HTC One M8 Unlocked and I haven't been able to use the phone for a couple days because I think I bricked it. First I unlocked my bootloader (successful) and then I rooted my phone (I assume it went successful) and after that I ran the ViperOneM8 4.6.1 rom. I was in a hurry so I did not read that you were supposed to update your firmware before installing the rom. I ****ed up and installed the rom and I was left with a phone that couldn't connect to wifi. I tried to fix the problem but I think I just made it worse and now I don't know what to do. Any help/links would be greatly appreciated thank you!

Check this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727
and update your firmware to at least 4.16.401.10
And no need to root if you are installing a (already rooted) custom rom ! Useless and totally unnecessary.
People should stop thinking that they "root the phone", you are only modding the running OS to give it root access !

I had the same issue. I got the 4.20.531.4 RUU to run no problem. I just took the OTA when I kept getting 155 error.
No clue... has anyone installed via RUU successfully?
Same problem. Any help?

I had the same issue and screwed around with it for hours trying to figure it out. Ended up flashing this firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960686131
then rerunning the RUU. Went through fine. Not saying it will work for you, but it worked for me.
I'm stock 5.0.2 with S-On and have never been rooted or unlocked the bootloader (my mother in laws phone) and I get this same error 155 when trying to use the RUU for Marshmallow that I downloaded from HTC. I think the problem is because the OTA that pops up is to prep for Marshmallow but after it installs and reboots it soft bricks the phone and I have to do a factory reset from the bootloader which causes the OTA to never finish so I'm screwed, any ideas?

Flash signed firmware 6.20.531.5 from here (instruction on how to flash at the bottom of the post), then RUU.
The post before yours has it right. But the unsigned firmware linked in that post will only work with s-off. The signed firmware I linked to will work with s-on.
Thank you so much, I'll try that!

Hboot 3.18
i believe your wifi issue is because you have an outdated firmware ( kitkat ) i think
so you need to flash the latest firmware ( marshmallow ) then flash the latest twrp ( 3.0.2-0 ) and flash your rom or restore stock backup ( 6.12.114.4 )
then you can achieve s-off ( if you need it for something else )
Here is the links
signed firmware 6.12.114.4
https://mega.nz/#!7YxCib7b!DqW43XSROE7ZlpTykZP8mItSe8MyrFCI969TVtkpeIs
stock backup 6.12.114.4

Yep, was thinking bout that too, looked at my gfs firmware and hboot and saw that she had 3.19hboot und 1.29 Firmware. So updated the firmware and it worked!
Thank you
