So as of today the HTC One M8 is on the drop-down menu for bootloader unlocking.
Running fastboot DOES produce the identifier token BUT
Plugging it into HTC's site produces the following error:
We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: 160.
Error Reason: MID Not Allowed

I'm guessing the Verizon M8 has some extra level of protection (or those SN's are premarked for exclusion).
Sucks.
It's the MID. Each variant has a different MID and Verizon has requested HTC not provide unlock codes for ours.

Hey, I have been coming to XDA for almost 2 years now and have always been able to find an answer to my question until now... So this is my first post.
I am attempting to unlock my HTC Rezound using the HTCDEV.com bootloader unlock. I have downloaded and installed all the resources they requested but when I paste the key and hit submit this is what I get...

You may want to do a bit more research before attempting these types of things in the future.
1. HTCDev is for unlocking your bootloader, which if you have AT&T, doesn't work.
2. A root method is available in another thread in the development section.
3. The development section is not here to post questions to developers. It is here for developers to communicate with one another and to post their work. There is a specific forum for questions called the Q&A forum.
Hope this helps.
This belongs in Q & A but if you have the att version, you cannot use htcdev to unlock your bootloader. It is being blocked by att.

and dont post here right? ...post in Q&A for future ref
Thanks
As stated already, the AT&T version is locked out and cant be unlocked by HTCDEV. There are already several threads with ongoing discussions about this and attempts to get around it.
Also, moved to Q&A...
when I copy my string and paste it to get the unlock token I get this everytime
