First off, if you don't understand how to root the phone, you shouldn't have a rooted phone. I firmly believe this. Rooting the phone isn't that hard, and if you aren't willing to put in the time and effort to learn about how to root it, its probably dangerous for you to have the phone rooted.
You are unfortunately now in the spot where you will have to learn a lot just to get the phone back to a stock condition.
Do you know what version of the phone you have (carrier or region?)? What hboot number?
If you select recovery in bootloader, and a red triangle (or green circle if an update is loading, but likely red triangle) with exclamation point is shown, that is stock recovery. Anything else is custom recovery.
Hey Thanks for the reply,
I'm from India & i use Indian version of M8.
i couldnt find my version main number :/
My HBOOT is 3.19.0.0000
Radio 1.22.2133114741.29G

Phone Relocked & S-ON now!
When i clicked recovery on bootloader it showed "Security Warning" so i did not proceeed further.
What to do next, please help

You can skip step 2 (on How-To) since yours is already relocked.

Looks like you're trying to run an Android 6 rom, but you still have Android firmware. You need to update your firmware either by going s-off and flashing marshmallow firmware, or by returning to stock by using an RUU and taking an OTA update (OTA update is only an option if you're phone is a dev edition OR if your carrier has a marshmallow update available). Alternatively, you can flash a lollipop rom in TWRP. Most of the custom Sense roms should have lollipop versions available.

HTC one M9, stuck at bootloader mode after flashing custom rom

Bootloader info:
*** software status: Modified ***

hi, i used to have custom rom viperone m9 but since i want to sell my phone im trying to go back to original htc one m9 stock, after trying many things including making my phone S-OFF, trying to flash RUU files, locking bootloader, and finally flashing a stock rom according to a tutorial on xda developers, using android revolution HD to go back to stock rom.
my phone is now not booting up, it was just getting stuck on the htc logo, i tried changing from s-off back to s-on and locking bootloader (which may turn out to be a very big mistake) and now it just boots directly to bootloader and i cant get past the bootloader screen, ive tried doing factory resets and wiping cache in recovery and download mode but nothing is working, im not sure what to do so if anyone can help it would be appreciated!!! i just want to get back to original stock rom where i can get OTA updates and an unrooted phone.
thank you
pleaseeee can anyone help I cant use my phone
Have you tried installing a ruu according to your M9 model? Bootloader SOn or SOFF??
If you still have the unlock Token use it again, if not try for another. If it does not give you one, sorry you are in trouble. It took me at least two weeks trying different stuff, original roms and back-ups, you maybe lucky. In the end I had to send mine back to HTC, the forums on XDA developers did not help.
