You need to flash RUU. go back to 100% stock,because your S-On it has to be the RUU that matches your CID
**Software Status: Official*** = OTA

Because of problems in the past where people who were not stock tried to take OTAs and got bricked (happened to many people on the M7), HTC has changed things so that you have to be 100% stock including recovery, bootloader locked, to take an OTA. Even having /system mounted r/w will cause it to stop.
As noted, the only safe way to do this when you're s-on is to run/flash a RUU file. Alternatively, you could go s-off and update manually (which is simpler), but this is a route only for experienced users.

one time i coud root and s-off my phone, then i wanted to setup new official RUU WWE 1.72 but i couldnt because my phone has asian RUU and get error.

sorry for my bad english!!!! :-"
Please post what is on your phone now? Kernel version? build number? Software number? Hboot version? Radio? No one here can help untill you give as much info as possible. And Im not quite sure I understand what you said about root, did you have s-off before and now you have s-on, or have you always had s-on? What did you do to " formated to factory" exactly? What did you flash, RUU???
More Info Please.

Again if you were already rooted with S-off , and you say you did a factory reset , what exactly did you do to "factory reset"?????? In your first post you said you had perm root before, so this means you would have had S-off, meaning in order to get S-on you would have had to unroot your phone. How did you root your phone the first time??? What did you do to unroot your phone now???????? Doing a factory reset would not unroot your phone. So my guess is you never rooted the first time. So that means you must be doing something wrong in the rooting process, as far as I know your version is rootable, what methods have you tried and exactly what steps have you done in the processes.
I wonder if the 1.74 RUU worked at least enough to change the phone back to S-ON, and as has been discussed the 1.74 stuff can't be rooted using normal methods.
I might suggest this for help:

Hi guys...
i desperately in need of help. i am in stock rom and i wanted to root my HTC and i did unlocked using HTC dev method. and installed CWM recovery. it worked fine for about 6 months (plz note i never flashed any custom rom, just unlocked with the stock rom)
but now suddenly my sim card is not detected. when i go to settings the flight mode says 'turning off' and it never turns off...and hence my sim not working. so i decided to reinstall stock RUU but it says wrong RUU and failed.
Info:

Hboot 1.18.0000
Radio-3831.19.00.120
eMMC-boot
CID : HTC_038
i tried flashing stock recovery and relock the mobile and then RUU but it fails.now when i searched in internet i came to know that i need to down grade hboot 1.18 since no RUU is available for this version and for doing so i need to do S-OFF. i tried rum runner but it ended up in failed to update error. so plz help me. :crying:
I want to know why the radio is not working and also how to revert back to stock RUU.?
P.S :i have a doubt on how it happened-last week i updated SuperSU and on recovery menu in Hboot it showed me warning that " Rom will flash stock recovery, proceed to fix.? " i gave no...i am not sure but i thing it may be the reason because i havent done anything new since i rooted my mobile.
take a backup with CWM recovery
bro before doing anything to stock rom pls backup through CWM recovery
1st of all, to find a compatible RUU for your phone the hboot is irelevant, you need to figure out what's your CID. There is a CID application on play store that will tell you what you need: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.tritonsoft.cidgetter&hl=ro
2nd from what i understood in your post you are still able to use the ROM somewhat, try to activate ADB in developer settings and reboot the phone through adb command. you will need to install android SDK and update your envoirnment variables in windows. you can lookup a tutorial on google about how to do that or if you can't find it you can PM me and i can give you some instructions.
it's very important to find a way to reboot your phone in bootloader because in order to reflash a RUU you need to relock your bootloader and to flash back the stock recovery.
it does not sound to me like your phone will be hard to fix (i had a lot worse and still managed to fix it ^^)
good luck with these steps, see if you can get any results and update here, we'll figure something out
cheers
Hey all,
I'm from India & i'm totally unaware of how to root or unlock android phones(HTC ONE M8) but recently my collegeue got my phone unlocked and rooted, I did not receive OTA for lollipop till date, I want to relock and unroot my device to get proper OTA updates, please help!
My phone was unlocked using Hasoon's toolkit and tried to unroot my device with the same toolkit but i couldnt find my version main number, i'm strucked since i'm a beginner, kindly help me get back my device back to stock form, by the way how to find whether my device has custom recovery or stock recovery??
Current status when i open bootloader :
*** Software status: modified ***
***Relocked***
M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
Please someone help me on this, please adjust that i dont know anything on this.
Thanks in advance
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.

Good day all,
I am unable to get into my TWRP recovery, have read through the forum and tried a couple of methods but still not able to get into recovery.
Below the series of events that led to this happening.
27/5/15
-wanted to install CM12.1 but needed to update my TWRP as it prompted me to have an updated version.
[backup my rom into my ext_sd card
-went to TWRP web site ( https://twrp.me/devices/htconem8gsm.html ) via computer and used the dd install method.
-believe it to be successful thus went for a recovery reboot but learnt that I was unable to get into recovery mode after waiting 30+ mins at the 'enter recovery mode' screen.
-tried to factory reset but was unable to factory reset as was unable to enter recovery.
28/5/15
-googled more and tried a few more methods.
-Tried to use a toolkit to get my CID and version number but saw I did not have the version number which was blank and read that countless others are also facing the same problem.
CID = HTC__004
-wanted to unroot and revert to stock rom but unable to get into recovery to flash the stock rom i downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376&highlight=version-main
-Tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727831 (RUU to install twrp) --> the bootloader just seems to hang at the loading of the RUU file and can't get to phrasing it after 30mins of waiting.
-force to reboot phone via pressing power button and now my phone has a error saying 'system uids inconsistent', which i pressed feeling lucky to continue using.
Tried updating twrp via playstore app which still made me unable to enter recovery.
29/5/15
-nearly giving up hope

Managed to clear cache and install 2.7.2 twrp and now able to go into recovery.
However, believe I woulkd require twrp 2.8.0 and above to flash cm12.1 and the gapps as I am getting an error when trying to flash cm12.1 nightly in my current 2.7.2 twrp that says that I am unsuccessful.
Tried to update twrp via their app this time and seems to be unable to get into recovery again.
Had cleared cache and installed twrp 2.7.2 again and now awaiting your further assistance in updating my twrp.
Thanks!

Your hboot is the original that came with the phone/4.4.2
You definitely need to update. I would recommend not just your hboot but the whole firmware package. And what you listed as firmware isn't firmware, it's your ROM.
Boot into bootloader, and post the readout from it here. I, or someone else here, will be able to direct you on how to update it with that information.

Another Canadian, eh?
Bell doesn't have any RUUs, unfortunately. You will need to use Sunshine to gain S-Off and switch to superCID to flash firmware, or go back to stock and take the OTAs that Bell provides.

I was guessing from your radio version. Y
Your OS was blank, which would have gave me the proper firmware/model you were on.
Good luck with Sunshine!

That's the wrong RUU. You need this one.
1. But my HTC One M8 is AT&T, don't I need one for that?
2. Will it be all right if I do this? Will I brick my phone or damage the software in any way?

You have the Developers Edition model of the M8, which was sold by AT&T. You can tell that from your firmware version (OS) in your bootloader readout.
Regular AT&T models will show the firmware version being x.xx.502.x
Dev Ed model will show x.xx.1540.x
You won't damage your phone, but you might have to flash the firmware first before running the RUU if it fails. I'm not sure where to find a signed firmware (you need signed if S-On) but you could search for it.
Try running the RUU first to see if it works. You won't brick, you'll just get an error and the installation will abort if it won't work (if you need to flash the firmware first).
You could also try out the methods in this thread to return to stock ROM and recovery, and update via the official OTA.
Okay, thank you very much.
I'll try the RUU first and see what happens. Thanks again.

Crap! I forgot to tell you that since you are S-On you will need to relock your bootloader first
In fastboot: fastboot oem lock then run the RUU again

Did it. says 'bootloader already locked". Sorry for not including this info in the previous reply.
i guess, this has made s-on after flashing wrong firmware. (MID has changed or has flashed modified firmware; you or someone else). you have to s-off again to flash ruu.
post a fastboot getvar all without S/N & IMEI to see exactly what has happened.

This is for the M9 and devices made after (M10). This doesn't apply to the M8.
The RUU linked by xunholyx is the right one.
Did you try to flash the stock firmware (6.12.1540.4) then the RUU, as already advised?

How do you know its the AT&T version? Does it have the AT&T "globe" logo on back cover?
If so, it was probably s-off at one time, than had its CID changed, and RUU flashed to "convert" it to US Developer's Edition software.
You need to flash the RUU that matches the current CID, it doesn't matter what it was "originally". And most folks won't want the AT&T bloat and limitations, anyway.
After getting the error, I flashed the firmware mentioned here.
After that the RUU ran flawlessly.
