HTC ONE M8S locked bootloaded but recovery not working - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
So I tried flashing a TWRP v2.7.0.2 to a HTC One M8s which on command line said was successful but when opening recovery the phone just powers off and does not load any recovery.
I then, stupidly relocked the bootloader (fastboot oem lock) and now have a bootloader saying ***RELOCKED***
I have tried a new unlockcode bin file but it wont matter as the recovery will not load when i select unlock bootloader.
Is there any other way to unlock the bootloader without having the recovery to run?
Please help!!!

Hi,
I had a similiar problem and used 'Squabbi's HTC One M8 Toolkit 2 2.5.0' to Re-flash TWRP twrp-3.2.3-0-m8.
Regards
Rob

I'm also having a similar issue when flashing twrp image successfully (bootloader unlocked) recovery loads the HTC white screen until the battery drains! I'm using Linux mint terminal. Could you point me towards squabbis toolkit to reflash? Tia

HTC Desire 626s Unlocked Bootloader,now to get S-OFF?

I'm a complete noob at this but all I am trying to get at this point is my HTC Desire 626s.
I have unlocked the Bootloader for now but S-ON is still on. My phone is fine and at this point I'm trying to complete a TWRP recovery .img I got from this thread (that didn't tell anything about twrp recovery,only cyanogen recovery method update and download)
So could someone help me out with what I need to do?
Note:
-Bootloader is unlocked
-I'm a noob,so some terms won't work on me.
-adb reboot bootloader gives me a "ADB Server out of date. Killing" message.
-The reason I need S-OFF is because thats the error message I got "FAILED (remote: cannot flash this partition in s-on state)"
after trying to flash in bootloader mode.
And if anyone has time,why does everyone mention this "fastboot mode" when I only see three different modes,as you can "reboot" to them.
Download,Bootloader,and Recovery Mode.
Thank you for anyone who replies,I'm a complete noob that just needs help,I'm a bit worried I unlocked my bootloader for nothing.
This is a forum for the HTC Desire Bravo A8181.
See with your own eyes.

You don't need to unlock the bootloader. You can flash anything with SP Flash Tool

Sprint HTC 10 no recovery, s-off bootloader relocked

So I used the htcdev site to unlock my bootloader, then I sucessfully flashed twrp-3.0.3-0_UNOFFICIAL-pme.img. then before I was going to reboot the phone I thought I needed to relock the bootloader, but when I did and restarted the phone it goes to upgrading android for a couple seconds before it pops up a screen saying my phone is encrypted and I need to input the passcode. I put that in and it says" even though I put in the right code my data is corrupted and I need to do a factory reset, which it starts then immediately goes into download mode. I can put it into bootloader but if I try recovery it fails and kicks me back to download mode. So no recovery, and until just recently I could do fastboot commands but not adb. the computer does not recognise the phone, neither does htc sync. Is there a way to unlock the bootloader with the original unlock bin code? I have also tried to send zips of the original ruu hoping I could get into recovery but it wont let me flash recovery with the s-on. Please help me.....

Have you tried the RUU on SD card method to restore the phone?
