I can get back into recovery but ever since I've attempted to flash a costum rom such as Viper or Revolution it gets stuck in the splash screen.
I'm not sure whats going on but I can boot into AOKP. If someone can help me out with the appropriate steps to take to flash one of those roms OR to flash back to stock I'd really appreciate because I've been at this for a couple of hours now and my head is starting to hurt :/
You need to update your firmware to run a Sense 2.22 based ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54408500&postcount=9592
From the linked post:
The issues you will see without the new firmware include long boot times with no boot animations and some users on 9.1 reported wifi and bluetooth issues.

I see you helping a lot people here redpoint so first of all thanks.
I just used the RUU.exe to return to at&t stock software number 1.58.502.1
I've read exactly what you said about being on Sense 2.22 but that's where I'm not sure what to do since AT&T hasn't release 4.4.3 yet and theres nothing for me to update to.
Do I have to S-off to obtain Sense 2.22? And also how difficult is it to S-ON? Again thanks so much.

Kind of did things the hard way, although you are back up and running. Now you will need to unlock the bootloader and install custom recovery again, to get back to where you were.
All you really needed to do was either restore your nandroid (you should always make one before flashing anything) or get a different ROM (Sense 1.xxx base) onto the phone and flash it.
Also, the phone was likely not really "stuck", just taking a REALLY LONG time to boot, like 10 minutes.

The post I linked previously includes the specific firmware package for US users, and a link to detailed instructions. 2.22.1540 is what you want to use, its pulled from the US Dev Edition OTA. While its not the "official AT&T" firmware, the DE is identical to the AT&T version in everything except AT&T branding (band support, etc.) and designed specifically for use on AT&T. Users here (including myself) can confirm it works seamlessly on the AT&T version.
2.22.1540 is also specifically advocated for use on the AT&T version in the following ROM post, along with great instruction (this is personally the one I used). Although you have to download the whole ROM, as the firmware is packed with it:

To update the firmware as I've described, yes. Reason being, the partitions that need to be updated by the firmware (radio, hboot, etc.) can't be modified without either S-off, or "official" update meant for your version.
The other option is to remain S-on and wait until AT&T releases the OTA. But who knows when that will be . . .

S-on isn't really necessary. As long as you understand the implications of s-off, its usually better to be s-off. More freedom, and more options to recover if you have issues.
Also, AT&T doesn't care about s-off in terms of warranty service. They only care about physical damage or water damage.

No problem at all. I've benefited a lot from XDA, and its my way of contributing.
I have an HTC One M8 AT&T Branded but it has 4.4.2 on it and i wanna flash viperrom 3.2.1 but it requires androids 4.4.4 software. im S-ON, 3.16 Bootloader with 1.58.502.1 Software number. Baseband Version is 1.16.21331931.LA11G_20.31A.4145.02L. im just looking to Update from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 but i cant seem to find out how. Any help would be great.
Perfect.
Unlock your bootlooader if you haven't already, fastboot flash recovery (TWRP/PHILZ),root using the chosen custom recovery,make a backup before or after root.
Go here http://theroot.ninja/ for Sunshine
S-OFF cause that's what your going to need to update as far as 4.4.4
Orrrr just wait a few days for the ATT 4.4.4 build to be released (ETA 29th) and then youll have 4.4.4 without having to do anything.

That's a better idea for sure.
I haven't noticed if Sunshine has an update that works with 4.4.4 yet.
Are you S-OFF ?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of S-OFF so the OP knows what he might be missing.
Do you know when the Sunshine update will be?
Yup,no [email protected],[email protected],there are plenty of posts about advantages and disadvantages...my point of view is simple,it is not needed for the novice,ive seen too many mess things due to lack of knowledge. My usage of it is for switching between att and developer ROM's to get latest updates. Outside of that I dont mess with conversions,to risky for a 6-700 device. My advice is stick to htc dev unlocked bootloader and wait for official update.

I didn't Google for to long but I haven't found concrete links that state the exact date .how many times have we been promised a date and watch it pass by anyways.
May I ask if you've modified any other device before this one?
I'm not trying to push,but S-OFF might be in your future and will not halt an OTA from installing.
The version your on is easily exploitable using "Sunshine" unless you take the soon to be 4.4.4 update.
Nobody knows when Sunshine will have an update even with the team working on it as we speak.
Wont be much on Google @date,came from somewhere else. And nothing is ever "concrete" with software,especially with carrier branded software.

I have Rooted, and flashed multiple ROMS to my old M7 before. Nothing crazy.
I as well have the same build, unlocked bootloader, flashed custom recovery. Will I have to return to stock recovery using 1.58.502.1 RUU and to get the OTA update to 4.4.4??
I'm trying to get the latest Android Revolution ROM for 4.4.4 but realized I was in a bit of a pickle. I'd like to take the path of least resistance on this one - any advice would be super appreciated. Thanks!

I'd say wait till tomorrow to see if an OTA update will roll out.
Or if you just can't wait for the ability to flash what you desire than I would go S-OFF and flash a non At&t firmware that you need to allow a smooth function of mentioned ROM.
Im restoring back to default AT&T ROM and such and will post weather the update has been pushed or not. i sure hope it has
**Update** Still no update, i got the " Current Software is up to date, You may check again in 23 Hours 59 Mintues.

You can check as many times as you like by setting your time manually ahead and your phone/device won't know the difference.
Check as many times as you like but it will remain the same,you should get a notification when it's time
So if you don't have s-off you can't update to 4.44 Sense ROMS with AT&T? I'm on Slim Rom and sound quality stinks. I want the new Android Revolution but i've read wi-fi and such doesn't work. Clarification plz?

Correct .
S-OFF allows you to change your CID witch will allow you to ruu Dev Edition 4.4.4 so everything runs smoothly
I've not looked on this thread in a while. I am S-off and unlocked and my cid is 11111111 but I have never updated firmware so that I can run a 4.4.4 rom. Is it correct that I flash a RUU (guess it's not called flashing when it comes to a RUU). How do I know which RUU to post - I found this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2757462 (http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.31A.4145.02L_release_368350_signed_2.exe)
Will I loose root or anything (other than wiping my data) when running the ruu.

I'll just say that if it's a stock ruu than it's most likely without root and it will wipe as if it came out of the box.if its a full ruu than it will come with the updated firmware as well witch should allow you to flash 4.4.4 Roms and still run smoothly.
What I did around 5:00am this morning was restore my Dev edition backup I had along with the stock recovery so I could take the Dev edition lollipop official update and now I have lollipop firmware to use with my stock GPE 5.0.1 lollipop ROM/backup .

Yes, running/flashing the 4.4.4 Dev Edition RUU will update you to that appropriate firmware. But, what you linked is not Dev Edition, its a stock AT&T RUU. And its not 4.4.4 either, its 4.4.2, which is probably where you already are.
What you want is the 3.28.1540 RUU linked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/ruu-m8-developer-edition-sense-1-54-t2884777
RUU will wipe the phone, install stock ROM (meaning root will be lost) and stock recovery.
But I also think its overkill to run an RUU just to update firmware, if that is the intent. My suggestion is to just run the firmware linked in the following post (which also has great instructions for doing so): http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365
The above method shouldn't overwrite the current ROM and user data. But backup anything important before flashing firmware, just in case.
Side note, "flash" is a fairly generic term, and as the RUU flashes stock ROM among other things, the term "flash" is appropriate IMO.
So can I just load the firmware file and flash thru fastboot? Is it This one?

Could you please guide me through a return to 100% stock of my August - HTC M9 version
I am hoping an amateur like me could get my phone fixed too through the help of the group here. I recently bought a swappa phone didnt realize the ATT HTC M9 phone was an unlocked international Custom ROM, it worked the first day smooth with my ATT SIM. But from day two I couldnt receive any incoming call. I was told that by the seller to switch back to stock ROM ... Thus I started this exploration, completed an S-OFF using the sunshine $25 apk, Enabled developer version and USB debugging, but am not very clear with the next steps.
Especially 1. Which ROM version to download ? Should I know the original stock firmware version, if so how to ?
2. By SD card is it meant Micro SD inserted in the phone ? Can it be done by USB cord with out SD card ?
3. The OS in the system info says 2.6.502.18 ROM HTC so should I use the same RUU ?
Sorry if the questions sound so amateurish can't help it.
With s-off then you should be able to flash any att ruu. As long as you haven't messed with your modelid (don't remember what it's called). I would recommend running any att m9 ruu to clean up your device then do a full conversion to the dev edition. That will give you a clean ROM to mess with and coming from my m8 I expierenced less issues while on a dev ruu while flashing roms. Also if you're running a ruu through your computer then you don't need a SD card .

So, I'm almost there - I'm unlocked (using HTCDEV site), TWRP Recovery installed, Rooted, and (FINALLY!!) S-OFF!! (not sure why, but that last one made me really nervous). Also changed CID to CWS_001 ........ so now I'm ready to flash the Developer ROM - but there are a bunch of them and I'm not sure which one I should use. My main goal is to get to Android 6.0 - can I use a RUU file to go directly to the Marshmallow firmware or is this something I have to do in steps? Will I lose OTA? Thanks again!

I am now officially a "convert" - i figured it out. I started with 1.32.502.31 and have been updating all afternoon. I'm finally on the last update - 3.35.617.2 and I'll have Marshmallow. Goodbye AT&T - I was really tired of waiting for them to get their act together.
Heres what i have noticed on verizon htc 10 with us unlocked firmware.pacrom,validus,aokp and rr roms will not flash.cm and beanstalk do.just some info for those wondering what roms work and what roms dont.
UPDATE!!! The 9/4 build of RR boots.no home button and same bugs as other cm.switch to global mode let it connect signal reboot let it connect again then switch back to cdma/lte/evdo and it will reconect with lte and stay connected.at least it did for me.

Here's the thing, I'm using the phone in Canada on a non-Verizon network. So for me, everything works on the phone but I wouldn't be able to tell you about Verizon network services like Volte/advanced calling/etc. I'm guessing those wouldn't work, but the phone it itself is running well.
The RUU I used is directly from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-10/news/
Does installing CM require anything other than a simple flash?

Heres what i have noticed on verizon htc 10 with us unlocked firmware.pacrom,validus,aokp and rr roms will not flash.cm and beanstalk do.just some info for those wondering what roms work and what roms dont.
UPDATE!!! The 9/4 build of RR boots.no home button and same bugs as other cm.switch to global mode let it connect signal reboot let it connect again then switch back to cdma/lte/evdo and it will reconect with lte and stay connected.at least it did for me.

Did you modify the firmware.zip? or did you just flash the firmware?
US unlocked is getting an update right now I believe and will be interested in flashing the new firmware and ROM.
Appreciate you making a thread on this as many as very confused and have this question about can we flash the firmware from other carriers, etc.
Have you tried flashing the verizon firmware back and seeing if verizon ROM will now flash, as you said Validius doesn't flash on the US unlocked firmware.
Curious if an RUU will be needed to be flashed to get fully back to Verizon.

Here's the thing, I'm using the phone in Canada on a non-Verizon network. So for me, everything works on the phone but I wouldn't be able to tell you about Verizon network services like Volte/advanced calling/etc. I'm guessing those wouldn't work, but the phone it itself is running well.
The RUU I used is directly from HTC:

Does installing CM require anything other than a simple flash?

First post already explains about CM and if it works.
So you ran the full RUU and stayed on the stock RUU ROM?

I changed my cid to 22222222 and ran the latest Unlocked RUU and stayed on stock.
As additional info, I previously tried to flash the same modified (recovery/radio removed, android-info.txt edited to add VZW cid) firmware zip as the OP but could not get the Verizon stock or any other ROM to boot. It was suggested that a full data formatting be necessary first, but I didn't try that and you probably know more about that process than me anyway. After each unsuccessful attempt however I was able to revert by flashing a VZW no-wipe RUU and restore my backed up VZW ROM without problems.

Latest firmware from who? U.S. Unlocked? W.W.E?

I would guess whatever FW is the latest and greatest. I have a VZW 10...When you converted what was the process like? After converting you still get VZW full 4G LTE and advanced calling/video/WiFi calling? I'm running the VZW 1.82 FW right now but my ROM (LeeDroid) is based off of the 1.95 I believe. I'd like my FW to match the FW my ROM was based off of. Thanks!

Do you mind posting the edited firmware, or is it posted and I'm blind?
I think the firmware will be found in the main threads before I am able to acquire it, but once ibdo get it I'll check in here.
I may have actually jumped the gun on much of any firmware changes, as I saw that there is an update coming in Santods ROM thread, so once the update comes we will see, hopefully if there's changes they are of use to us.

Please take a look at one of my previous posts I'm not able to tell you about VZW features since I'm using the phone on a different network. I would guess advanced calling /Volte/etc wouldn't work, else people with the Unlocked phone wouldn't need to do a Verizon conversion.
The conversion process was simple, changed CID and ran the RUU exe from my PC.

After flashing go into recovery then wipe then select format data then reboot recovery wipe everything again reboot recovery and then flash the the best way it worked for me
