As you can see, my CID is "HTC_332" and my version-main: 1.57.599.1. I installed a custom recovery (TWRP) and I forgot to backup my stock recovery now I can't receive OTA updates (doubting that I receive something as my phone is from Latin America...).
The thing is I have download a 1.54.401.10 nandroid backup and also the 1.54.401.10 stock recovery (both from Europe), my phone has bootloader unlock and S-ON. I was able to do a restored from a nandroid backup and also flash the stock recovery (also both from Europe). After this my phone is working just fine, still on my bootloader shows "TAMPERED" and "Unlocked".
Well my question is this, after doing this am I going to be able to receive OTA's updates even if my phone has CID from Latin America (htc_332) ?
It is going to affect something because I flashed an Europe Firmware and stock recovery on my phone?
What is the difference between Firmware 1.57.599.1 and 1.54.401.10? (which one is better or which one you guys recommend?)
Thanks in advance for any info.

You will receive OTA but it will fail the verification and you won't be able to install it.
What you have now is same as you flash a custom ROM. No working OTA for your device.
You can only do OTA with your own stock ROM and stock Recovery.

Thank you for the Quick respond, is there a way to get the stock recovery for my version-main: 1.57.599.1?
What about if I change my CID to SuperCID will be able to receive OTA updates with the European Stock ROM?

I don't see anywhere stock recovery 1.57.599.1, only see one backup.
You can only change to SuperCID when your device is S-Off.
To receive and install European OTA, you need S-Off then change to any EU CID (a few of them) or SuperCID and change your MID currently 0P6B16000 to 0P6B10000

Thank you for your answer, well I was trying to make my phone S-OFF but Firewater is not working on my phone, error message ("Remember the golden rule, never take OTA"...) for some reason is not taking it, any Ideas?

Hi Folks,
I just S-OFF my HTC One M8, Change my MID to 0P6B10000 install a stock rom (1.54.401.10) and also its Stock Recovery. After that I remove the tampered and the unlock notification, I ran the "Check Update"and SCORE!!! I receive an OTA Update. Now my question is this: If I change my MID to the Unlocked one (0P6B12000) Do I will receive OTAS anyways? (even if my bootloader is unlocked and my phone is rooted)
Thanks again.

IMEI is personal information, and you do NOT want it posted on the internet. You really should delete it from the first post.

I didn't knew it, thanks for advice me... as you guys might see, my English is not really good,IMEI Deleted.!
So, can I switch to the Unlocked MID version from European MID version and still receive OTA's? (rememeber, my bootloader is Unlocked and My phone is rooted)
Thanks again.

You will be, as long as MID, CID and stock ROM (as well as FW of course) you installed all match each other, as those things are what the OTA server is going to check and match.

Your MID don't has to be changed, as it is the HTC WWE MID. and with superCID you definitely will receive OTA.
HTC WWE is in fact the best MID you could have, as far as I can imagine

Is that the Sprint H/K model? Your getvar only shows what you have now, not what you had before. But I believe your MID is H/K?

Change your MID to WWE to run that RUU, 0P6B10000.
[how to] change your MID without an eng bootloader In the section "HTC Europe MID" . Copy and paste commands, make sure you have no extra spaces either before or after command. Putting it in manually and you do it wrong might give you more problems.
Change CID to HTC__001
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001

had errors but fixed, now to try the RUU out.
EDIT:
RUU was successful, i now have wifi, anything else i need to do to be back on stock or is that it? will i be able to upgrade to Android L?
do i need to lock my bootlocker?
does RUU install a stock recovery?

So it updates successfully, however when I go into Google Play Movies, only the rent option is available, I buy movies a lot as I own Chromecast, anyone know why buy option would be gone? Checked other android phones in house and they all still have buy options.

If you give more info on which M8 version you own, we can help you determine which RUU. The RUU needs to match your CID and MID.

Any specific reason you want LP? MM is the current, and has been since Dec 2015.
MM RUU for your version M8 is here (its a zip format RUU, so follow the instructions in the post): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
Also, be sure to delete the IMEI and serial number from your previous post. These are personal info that should never be posted online.

The getvar all which I posted is an older version. I have the latest RUU installed, with MM and latest bootloader. The thing is that, I am feeling like the charge is finishing faster while playing games. Moreover, I have another problem. I don't get cellular connectivity. The sim works fine on other phones. The sim is also detected by M8, but no signal. It worked before. I tried every fix on the internet (as far as I could find by searching Google). Can you please help me with that? I don't really want to change to lollipop btw. Please, could you solve the problem? Please?

You can't downgrade (such as MM to LP) by RUU with s-on.

I bought my phone from a Canadian provider known as Wind Mobile (now rebranded as Freedom Mobile). As you can see there's no firmware listed, and the bootloader is a strange 3.19.0.0000 which I can't seem to find anything on. The lack of firmware listing seems to be a common problem, but it leaves me with a few blanks that leave me unsure on how to proceed.
I've found threads that have RUUs for the same CID & MID, but never for the same bootloader version. I'm not really too sure how to proceed from here as I can't seem to find stock files anywhere for my provider. I'm currently using CRDroid 7.1.1.
I'd like to go back to as stock as possible and receive OTA updates. Can anyone give me some advice on what to use? I've been searching for a few hours now and can't seem to find anything for my specific phone. The one thing I did find was a European based RUU which would probably screw up my radios as I'm located in Canada.
Thank you.

Go to my backup thread linked in my signature and restore stock 6.13.1500.7 backup.
If you want the firmware to be shown on bootloader then flash fw_6.13.1500.7 firmware
How-to is explained there.
First thing .. use correct TWRP version 3.0.x not your current one which I believe is 2.7.x

The above info indicates the phone is the US Developer's Edition.
The Marshmallow (last official version released) RUU is here: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_6.12.1540.4.exe
To install RUU, you will need to lock the bootloader with command: fastboot oem lock
If you still get any errors running the RUU, let me know. For some (most) US versions of the M8, you need to flash the Marshmallow firmware (radio, hboot, etc.) in order to upgrade to Marshmallow RUU. Don't remember if this requirement applied to the Dev Ed.

You sure the boot splash screen doesn't say HTC? Although the HTC logo pretty clearly says HTC, so I believe you when you say it reads "PTCi" but just want to confirm. If you are seeing PTCi, it seems your phone has a different ROM installed (than the stock HTC Dev Edition ROM). Which would agree with the fact the bootloader has been unlocked. I'm not famililar with PTCi, so I can't be sure what the ROM differences are. But flashing the RUU should at least not have any affect on network connectivity (as ROM does not affect the network baseband). And the stock Dev Ed ROM (which will be installed by the RUU) is a pretty good one.
