Hi,
I was trying to flash my HTC ONE M8s but was unsuccessful. I wasn't aware that only a certain ROM could be used.
I am not exactly sure what I did but even the recovery partition is gone. Anytime I try to go into recovery or boot the phone it just goes to the htc logo screen. I have tried to flash a new recovery (TWRP) and (CWM). Fastboot tells me it has gone across ok but when I try to boot into recovery again I just get the htc logo screen.
I have tried to use ADB but it will not pick up my device. I don't think I enabled developer mode correctly before I started fooling around with the phone.
I unlocked the bootloader but still have S-ON. I have tried using RUU file for my model id but still nothing.
Is there any tools out there that I can use to totally wipe the phone clear and start fresh without having to send it back to HTC.
The reason I tried to flash it in the first place was that my camera stopped working after the update for Marshmallow came out. I asked HTC about it and they just wanted me to send it to them.
Their support is not very good!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also if this post is not in the right place feel free to move me on, this is my first time.
Heres my phone details:

Hey guys!
I wanted to root my HTC One M8 and ran into a little problem doing so.
This is what I have done:
Unlock bootloader through HTC Dev
Flashing the unlock.bin
Bootloader is now unlocked
Flash TWRP
Erase cache
Boot into Recovery
However, instead of seeing the familiar TWRP screen like on my previous phones, the phone shuts down completely after shortly showing the HTC logo. This is my getvar output:
version: 0.5

I have tried multiple versions of both TWRP and CWM, but neither do anything. It should also be noted, that when the cable is still plugged in, the orange low-battery indicator LED starts blinking, together with my screen flickering on and off (intervals of 5 seconds) with big battery charging sign on it. Could this be a battery problem? The phone boots normally into the Stock ROM.
Your device is not a HTC M8 ! Get your hardware facts right and you would have known its a HTC M8-S !
And now you know that you can stick to this thread, it has pretty much all info you need !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3114245
And please read up on what you want to do and why you are doing it ! And PLEASE make a NANDROID BACKUP before attempting anything

Damn I feel so stupid right now! Thanks for pointing it out, totally thought I had an M8, my memory is pretty bad :/
Hi guys and gals,
New to the forum so if I'm breaking any rules let me know. Also, I'm also totally new to the android modding world, but I studied a few things on the site, which has helped tremendously. But I am at my wit's end.
I got an encrypted Verizon M8 from a buddy that is boot looping. It seems like it might have failed an OTA, because whenever I put in the password to unencrypt, a little android robot shows up and then it goes back to the main HTC boot screen to boot again.
I've tried to factory reset in the Hboot screen but it does nothing and starts a loop. The recovery screen can't mount /data (invalid arguement) and the factory reset there fails to work too.
I tried to flash 5.0.1 RUU zip from my sd card from here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one-m8/general/official-ruu1-55-605-2-t2883845, and that seems to go ok, yet I still get taken back to the encryption password screen, which then sends me to a bootloop again.
If there's any hope to save this phone please let me know. I am S-On, not rooted, bootloader says locked, and software status is official. Thanks for any help!
Here is the fastboot getvar all since that seems to be important for troubleshooting.

HTC One M8 Sense 7 Android 6 rooting process.
Hi, I am keen to know the whole process how did you do root your HTC One M8?
I have successfully unlocked the boot loader and status now shows "Unlocked" but unable to root it or flash TWRP.
After I successfully flashed the the customer recovery TWRP and when select HBOOT -> Recovery -> The device will reboot into the stock ROM.
Cleared caches but no go. Repeated the steps very carefully but no success.
My HTC One M8 running on latest Marshmallow HTC Sense 7 and it is international variant.

go to your own forum ffs... this is the m8s forum, it is not the m8 forum
Hi I am on a carrier based phone, the OTA update on the second part of marshmallow android update was not installing and giving me an error in the cache, a clear cache and factory reset did not work and none of my play store apps would update (im not sure if this was due to only part 1 of 2 of the update installed and has corrupted something somewhere) and so I decided to unlock my bootloader and after a lot of reading managed to install TWRP, after a lot more reading I decided that due to play store and certain apps not working on rooted phones I would like to return it to stock, I have not installed SuperSU as yet and was trying to find out if there are any firmware files or RUU or even a stock recovery to install the second part of the ota update out there that will work on my h3g tied phone as I have read that the HTC_Europe RUU would not be compatible due to me having the h3g firmware on my phone. If anyone could help me it would really be appreciated. My details of the model are below. The build number is missing for some reason but the phones settings say it is: 1.21.771.3 CL718283 release-keys.

hi, everybody.
I wanted to flash a custom ROM on my a51_dtul device with KitKat android. but it didn't work. so I wiped cache, Dalvik and internal storage as well. in fact, nothing is in internal storage now, and won't boot any os. my device is unlocked and below is the information.

I also downloaded the firmware from the gsmdevelopers(i can't provide the link), but the zip file is corrupted.
but you can reach the link here on number 5
but I flashed a firmware in Hboot mode and successfully done it. but still don't boot any os and any time I reset or reboot it stucks in boot loop and gets back to TWRP recovery mode. I really don't know what should I do.
I wanted to flash cm12 with a higher android version, but I loosed what I had .
if anybody has the backup for a51_dtul can upload for me? at least I can use my phone if I restore it.
