I bought my htc one m8 2 months ago.The selfie camera used to work,now it doesn't.I can't even click on the selfie button,when i go into dual mode the front camera appears black in colour and i can't take any photos using the dual camera anymore. so i don't know if the system updates affected the mode.My phone is updated to the newest system update after installing a custom rom ( skydragron v10)

How exactly was that update accomplished?
I have installed the skydragon custom rom
Is returning to a stock rom could be the solution?

@wahab97
You haven't really answered this question. How did you update - via OTA, via RUU or did you just install a MM backup and never updated your device's firmware? Or were you just flashing a ROM? Could you please post your getvar all? Remove imei and serial no. and post this here.
I flashed the custom rom by unloking the bootloader and installing TWRP the phone was in 4.4.2 androud version the rom contains android 5.0 lolipop this is how i have uptaded my htc

So you never updated firmware of your device. Can you please post getvar all as mentioned?
No. I don't know about getvar can you tell me how to do?

fastboot getvar all
adb, drivers etc should be installed already

That's what we'll get as well if you post the results. But getvar gives more information which is needed to help you.
I will post the results but can you tell me what do you search? what 's the relation about this and the selfie camera problem?

According to your posts you never updated firmware, you just installed a MM ROM. So your firmware seems outdated. We need you to go back on stock (with right firmware as well in case you want to install other ROMs and most posted here need at least MM firmware) to determine if your phone works correctly on stock or you have a hardware issue

No wonder you have issues. Your phone is a sprint one and you use a newer ROM with old firmware.
To update your firmware etc follow this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
PS: edit your Post and remove imei and serial no.

The HK is a variant of the sprint m8. For your phone you need the non hk. Follow instructions in the thread (firmware first, ruu second). If you run into issues post in the linked thread.
i will lose the root access after flashing this ? and another question i have to unistall the snapdragon ROM before flashing this or no?

Of course you will lose root. But that's not an issue to get root back. But your main priority should be hardware and whether your phone works correctly or not.
Your installed rom is not an issue as well.
Last question can i flash the firmware only and let the skydragon rom?

You surely got TWRP installed. It's a known bug that those entries are empty after flashing some of the last TWRP versions.

Yeah it displays the software number of the installed (custom) rom. So it might not be the actual devices specific main software number ! This only applies when you are running your own stock rom.
Custom rom can be 2.22.401 while the true original is 1.56.720 (EXAMPLE) The last number is/should be embedded in the fastboot getvar info while the software number shows 2.22.401.
Long story short......software number on a custom rom doesn't mean anything !

This could not possibly solve the OP's problem. If he was trying to get his stock rom later (if he is on a custom rom, which is nowhere written if he's on stock or custom) without the additional given information he would be searching for the entire wrong stock backup/rom and would be sent into the woods. So there is no way you could "knew" this solved his problem.

Ok, well seeing as he didn't specify that he had a custom ROM it seemed very likely that he could find his version main that way. You were right, but I'm not sure why you're arguing with me.

Sorry, sow that now.
so just to make sure i get the steps right;
1. flash 4.19.707.2 firmware
2. flash any 4.19.707.2 based rom?
do i need to flash recovery? (currently cwm)
thanks and sorry for the confusion here. i rarely do this stuff so i'm kinda walking in fog.
Recovery is part of the FW package
So:
1. Flash FW
2. Flash custom recovery
3. Flash Lollipop ROM
thanks M8! will try it immediately!
Thank you!!! worked perfectly! back to lollipop with wifi working and all !

OK, that confirms you're on the old HBOOT (3.16.0000) and is pretty much the issue as to why it's not working as Lollipop ideally needs HBOOT 3.19.0000 to go with the new FW. Was your device a branded phone when you bought it brand new or was it a SIM-free version (e.g. was it on x.xx.401.x first)?

Its not the OS software that is being referred to here. The "firmware" (admittedly, a crappy name as "firmware" can mean a great many things really) is the hboot, radio, media, WiFi and other modules. If your firmware doesn't match the ROM, WiFi being broken is the common result.

Just get back to the stock ROM that matches your current firmware (your hboot indicates that would be Android 4.4.2) and WiFi will work again.
Restore stock ROM and stock recovery for your CID, and it should enable OTA, which yes, that will update your firmware. You'll have to work through a few OTAs, as you are now a couple versions behind.
Was it T-Mobile US or EU? If the former, the RUU is online

Its not just hboot, but all the modules in the firmware "package" that are the issue. Meaning, just updating hboot alone won't fix your WiFi issue.
Hboot is just one of the ways you can (usually) tell what firmware you are on. You can look at the radio number as well.

Whatever the roms I try, however stock or not, none of them boots well.
At best with the Stock roms of the mobile operator Orange France that get flashed with success, I am stuck at the HTC logo and nothing more... Whatever the stock rom I try...
With non stock roms, the best result is given by the latest cyanogenmod rom nightly that flashes conveniently then gets also stuck on the Cyanogen boot screen.
Of course, I perform factory reset with twrp prior to any flash.
That's where I am now.
Short of idea.
Do you have any that may help me, please ?
Have you tried flashing through fastboot?

Nothing wrong with your specs, you can flash the latest roms in the development section. Probably a user error. Wiped all before installing a new rom. What rom did you try, which TWRP are you using, what steps did you take EXACTLY !

There is no 4.16.401.13 RUU, you need a stock backup to restore !
1 - stock software, use a 4.16.401.13 or .10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086860
2 - no need to unroot because these backups are NOT rooted
2.1 - if you want future OTA you also need to flash back the stock recovery

Your firmware (hboot, radio, etc.) is old. You need to update it to run Lollipop ROMs. Sense Lollipop ROMs won't run properly with your KitKat firmware. CM12 won't work without hboot 3.19.
Easiest way to do so is restore the stock ROM for your current firmware, restore corresponding stock recovery, then OTA up to current Lollipop (which will also update firmware).
After that, you can install TWRP again, and flash the desired custom ROM, if you want.

So your issue is in fact not even remotely close to the OP's problem.
I hate it when folks say "I have the same problem", as from what I've seen, its almost never true. Even if the problem is similar, you should always provide as much detail as possible. Too many variables (numerous CIDs, firmware numbers, ROMs tried, exact steps that go you to this point, and much much more) to just say "I have the same problem".
Hello Redpoint73,
Thank you very much for your suggestion.
I did as you said.
And it sorted out the matter !!!
I am very happy.
Nevertheless, I found it a bit harder indeed cause I did not know the firmware originally installed on the phone (OS line blank), so I managed to find all the stock roms officially posted by the French phone operator Orange (correspunding to my CID), I extracted the recovery.img of each one and I flashed them one after another, flashing its correspunding recovery afterwards. Everytime I needed to install TWRP before a new stock rom flash. 3d trial was the right one and the phone was flashed like a charm. I went for official OTAs after that and now the phone runs great with the latest firmaware and rom.
Thnaks a lot every one !!!!
I have to say I found better help and attention here than anywhere else.
Thumbs up !

This is a known (and common) bug caused by older TWRP builds.
Nice work figuring it out yourself!

There's a button for that.
So I really need some help.. last time I updated my phone it was somewhere 2015 so I am totally lost.
In the picture you can see my settings. I am on viper 4.6.1 and I really would like to update to Android 6.0.
Because I am on viper I need to do a official ota.. I can't find y cid number anywhere. So I hope someone can point me in the correct destination. Or is it possible to do a clean wipe and install Android Revolution HD with already a Android 6.0 (or another rom with 6.0) then do a clean wipe and install the new viper 6.0 Android.?
I really hope someone can help me.

you're still with LP firmware. post a fastboot getvar all without serial and imei to choose a firmware or ruu wich matches to your device.

I will post it tomorrow, just can home from Paris.
It's not possible to just clear all and flash a other rom with Android 6.0?

No it isn't, as your device is still on Android 5 firmware. ROMs based on Android 6 need the appropriate firmware to be installed first. To update your firmware you need to perform a backup or use a RUU according to your fastboot getvar all command (more precise to your current firmware, CID and MID), as you are still S-ON. Once done this you can take all available OTA to update ROM and firmware. Only after this you could flash TWRP and an actual Android 6 based Custom ROM. Only way to update your firmware to the latest one, and flash a Custom ROM right after it, would need S-OFF.

you have to go to latest firmware through OTA. as your device is a rare one. can't find a mm ruu for it (6.12.114.4). but you can update step by step through OTA. later you can install a custom rom.
1) restore 4.19.114.2 TWRP backup.
2) flash 4.19.114.2 stock recovery.
3) check update & install.

I haven't seen any issues posted about running MM ROMs with LP firmware, and in fact I've been doing it for over 9 months now. In fact, MM ROMs will likely work fine on the OPs phone.
Its not like when folks were trying to run LP ROMs on KK firmware (or MM ROMs with KK firmware, for that matter) which would result in broken WiFi and/or extreme slow boot/no boot. It seems not much was changed in the MM firmware.
But you are correct, in that having the most up to date firmware is best for ROM compatibility.

Yeah it was referring to my experiences an the M8 and M9 having long boot up times cause by some little issues between ROM base and firmware. To avoid such problems I always flashed the latest firmware, so I won't run into such kind of problems, just to make sure. Thanks for the heads up.
