Just enable MTP in twrp(enabled by default), transfer any rom.zip in phone and flash.

I had a custom rom.zip but everytime I flash it, I reboot my HTC and it still doesn't have an OS. Is there a stock firmware I can download?

That's firmware only, not OS, won't boot
I think this is easier for you. Restore nandroid backup.

Fastboot doesn't read my device, only on TWRP recovery

you need to be in Fastboot mode to read fastboot getvar all, you do that by turning off the phone, then turning on keeping pressed Vol- and Power until it goes to the white screen, then select Fastboot, and then you get on CMD "fastboot getvar all" then paste it here to see what is the problem

Flash boot.img hoooooow!???

hello so am trying to flash ARHD 6.0.0 to my one x, i did unlock the bootloader and flashew CMW touch into my handset.
the only thing i dont know how is how do i flash the boot.img?
everybody saying dont flash it using CMW then how the hell can i flash it?
pls super noob here and i dont know what to do
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Instructions are provided in most rom and kernel threads.
You need to use fastboot commands from your pc, for example:
fastboot flash boot what_ever_your_file_is_named.img

sorry but still i dont understand!?
i have this boot.img file sitting on my desktop. what should i do with it?
"fastboot commands from your pc"
exactly, how should i do this?
sorry for my ignorance but i dont have any experience in these matters.
cant i just flash the boot.img through CMW?

put the boot.img in the same folder your fastboot files are on your pc, then boot into your bootloader on your phone.
pick fastboot, connect your usb so it becomes fastboot usb
in the cmd prompt on your pc type fastboot flash boot boot.img
or download this program http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634786 (courtesy of team hex)
put your boot.img in the boot.img folder
put your phone into fastboot usb
then run the program and pick flash boot.img
If you don't get it then you shouldn't have unlocked the phone in the first plce until you read up on adb/fastboot

This.
I wish more people would actually read and understand what they're doing before they start doing it. If you unlock/root your phone you NEED to know how to restore any changes you make, this usually means you need to know how to use ADB, the Recovery console and the Bootloader (the bare minimum of things you need to know).
If you don't know how to use any of these things stop whatever it is you're doing. It most likely wont end well.
You should really read up on things. Until we get soff you won't be able to flash kernels etc through cwm. Regarding adb and fastboot try reading this http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/what-is-adb-and-how-to-install-it-android/.

Using batch files to make flashing IMG faster is all well and good but learning to do it yourself is the only way to really be safe with what you're doing.

In order to unlock via HTCDev you need to flash the .bin file via fastboot so he must have some idea of how to use it!

To the OP,
Did you root the phone yourself? If so, why have you rooted your phone when you have NO idea on how to get back to stock? Did you not think it wise to learn all this before you get stuck?
It's starting to get ridiculous how many threads regarding the same thing are posted up over and over again...

[Q] No OS installed on HTC ONE M8! Plz HELP!

Hi everyone! I installed the stock google edition on my HTC ONE M8 last night using adb command. Then I get in TWRP recovery try to restore my previous backup that I made using TWRP. Then I got an "restore failed". So, I get in wipe, but I chose the advanced wipe instead of factory reset because my old defy+ is this. I'm so stupid.... I deleted the system. Now I have no OS installed on my phone. I googled earlier that people were saying that using ADB sideload will work. I get in recovery and pressed the sideload but the progress bar just keep going for like 8 hours straight !!! What should I do?
Also, my phone has unlocked boot loader and S-OFF. I rooted my phone before I did the wipe.

Okay. But when I connect my phone to my PC. It makes the notification sound but did not recognize it. And when I typed in "adb devices" there is no devices attached.
It'll only show when booted into TWRP (so flash that in fastboot if you have to), and that's when you push the file

I believe it was RUU.
If it was the RUU then you'll have to flash the firmware package in post 2 of the RUU thread before flashing a Sense-based ROM but if you want the GPe ROM back just flash the RUU again as per the original thread...

Okay. When I tried to use TWRP install the zip file. It told me failed. Is that wrong or should I use adb?
Your backup probably failed because it didn't backup correctly. It's happened to me a couple of times wirh TWRP. You should always check your backup works before deleting anything. There are stock backups available on this forum.
The RUU has to be flashed in fastboot using the fastboot commands, so if you're trying to flash it in TWRP it will fail. To flash the RUU, you have to:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <nameofzip>.zip
First time WILL fail, so then run the same command again - fastboot flash zip <nameofzip>.zip
fastboot reboot
This is ONLY for the RUU ZIP file and not a normal TWRP-flashable ZIP

If you did want sense all you need to do is restore a stock backup and then flash firmware.
If you restore gpe ruu, just download a stock sense backup, the copy and paste the extracted folder it in the twrp folder and restore, then flash the firmware_splash.zip in RUU mode

I would advise using older or newer releases of twrp until you find one that does work.
EDIT: Didn't even notice you have a One M8S, that's not the same phone as the M8. Make sure you're using the One M8S version of twrp.

You're lucky wrong recovery don't totally brick your device.
How can you expect recovery made for M8 to work on non M8 device ?
You're posting your problem in M8 section which is totally wrong place for your device variant.
Everything that you need is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245
Never try anything made for M8 (recovery or ROM) on your device ... your device is not M8. M8 is 32 bit, yours is 64 bit
hint : your second screenshot says you don't have htc_fastboot.exe in your folder as in screenshot 1, you have only generic fastboot.exe in that folder

i see in your screenshot wrong command you tried to flash recovery with command
fastboot boot recovery nameofrecovery.img
the right command
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
and you don't need HTC_fastboot to flash recovery
BTW :- i don't see HTC_fastboot in your folder

That is true for M8 but not for M8s
M8 - 32 bit
M8s - 64 bit

Then he will need to download htc_fastboot from the thread you linked and use it with command
htc_fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
