Hi Guys,
So basically I keep trying to put twrp recovery on my HTC One M8 and when I go for a new version of twrp and flash it on to my HTC it appears with "FAILED (remote:image error! (BootMagic check fail))", however when I put on an older version of twrp it works fine until I load up recovery where it stays on the boot up screen and won't go past that forcing me to force power off the phone. I have a standard HTC One M8 with Android 6.0.1 and the phone is "Unlocked" with S-ON, HBoot version is 3.19.0.0000.
Thank you for reading and I hope someone can help

start by going over the FAQ sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711073
Q5 has a link to some nice information about HTCs
and you should do a "fastboot getvar all", it shows you all the information you should know about your phone.
for example:

Hi guys,
I consider myself an experienced flasher - though I've been away from the XDA scene for a good year. I need a stock ROM to flash to my HTC One M8. It's in Demo Mode and I can't remove it. I've just been made aware that RRU's are very hard to come across these days, as back in the day that was the easiest way to fix it.
Please could someone help me guide through this, I don't really want to root the handset.

As ridiculous as it sounds it's been a long time since I did this, could you send me a link to a thread that shows me how to get Fastboot set up? I really really appreciate it.

looks like their has been an update since the RUU so you won't be able to flash it without s-off
RUU_3.28.401.6_M8_WWE_Stock.exe
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001609293
Zip
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4sLrKlVs0CPY29yV09MQURsd0k/view
You will have to try these
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655046058
+ stock recovery >> http://d-h.st/vTl
you'll have to unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP to use it
and the Thread with all those files and instructions is here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376
The 3.28.401.9 ZIP is available here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B17smFr95pleRk9VNjE2MTZMT1U/view?usp=sharing
Guide to flash it is also in the OP that link is taken from:

Post your fastboot getvar all command output. Delete the serial and imei before posting !
The ruu above might work but if you are on a higher firmware and s-on the ruu will definitely fail because you can't downgrade firmwares on a s-on device !

Do you have TWRP installed, and decided to use it to wipe everything (or at least wipe "system") in Advanced wipe options?
So, I got an HTC One M8 of a friend of mine. I tried to repair the phone as it was in a bootloop. However, even after installing several different roms it wouldn't start. I noticed another strange thing; Whenever I want to go from the bootloader to recovery, it takes absolutely ages (read: 10-15 minutes) to actually get to this. I tried it with a custom recovery as well as the stock recovery. This makes me think it has something to do with the CPU?
So far I've tried different ROMs, a nandroid backup, updating my firmware and (unsuccesfully) finding a RUU file for my HTC M8. I have included the getvar information for further possible details:

I posted the getvar in another thread in which other people also posted theirs, so I accidentally copied someone else's info!
And I was afraid of that as I have been looking for it as well... Is there maybe a generic RUU file that works for most m8 devices?

no every device variant have it's own RUU ( available or not )
your best solution ( i'm afraid it's the only ) is to restore a stock backup then flash the signed firmware

yea, just tried this again, didn't work, was stuck again on the o1ne screen after the vodafone logo. after installing a custom rom (android revolution HD 53.1) it was also stuck on the same screen. the last time it was stuck on this screen, it didn't get any further after a full 8+ hours of waiting. I waited for an hour on both flashings, but nothing at all...
Thanks for assisting me so far anyway
bump!
I really would want to use this phone...
