Update error with stock firmware?

I'm Canadian user. I flash stock 4.3 stock Rom, using system update tried to update to 4.4, but got error, do I need to lock the bootloader? or can I just flash 4.4 stock firmware?

Here is your Stock recovery 5.11.401.10
Put this recovery to adb folder and then hit this command from fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

A few questions...is this based off of the stock OTA for the international or developer edition of the M7? And if so, does the AT&T edition (which is what I have) use the same base for their stock ROM? I'm currently on ARHD 71.1 and waiting patiently for an update to 4.4.3, but also am wondering if I should wait for the official OTA from AT&T, so that I can get the firmware meant for my phone, before upgrading to 4.4.3, which is what I did with 4.4.2, before flashing ARHD. Also, do you know if the stock recovery you attached above is the same one that would be on a stock AT&T M7? I've been trying to be careful and only receive the firmwares officially through OTA, before flashing a custom ROM based on a base that's compatible with my M7, but I'm wondering if I'm being too careful. I also have 3 different stock recoveries for my M7, but am not sure which is the most current and for the version of the M7 that I have, in conjunction with the ROM base, or if that matters. Sorry for being so inquisitive.

*is this based off of the stock OTA for the international or developer edition of the M7?
Yes, this is based on Stock WWE firmware.
*And if so, does the AT&T edition (which is what I have) use the same base for their stock ROM?
I am not sure about the base. but yes, AT&T may be using the same base and adding their own features on top of that! or may be HTC make separate software build for that.

What I recommend: wait for the official upgrade from your AT&T carrier so that you don't put yourself in any trap!
Regarding your firmware doubt: No, my attached file was only for new software 6.09.401.5 which is Android 4.4.3
If you want to receive update officially flash the stock recovery from here: HTC One Stock Recoveries

Guys, previously by mistake I posted a recovery for latest firmware: 6.09.401.5, which was latest.
But If you're on Android 4.4.2 then you need recovery for 5.11.401.10(or according to your software version) so that your stock OTA can be flashed.. sorry for inconvenience.
All recoveries are found from here: HTC One Stock Recoveries

Well, OP says "All of these ROMs will get future OTA updates as released by Motorola."

[Q] How to come back to stock RECOVERY?

hi,
I have Lolipop 5.0 in my Moto G + root + TWRP. I received the 5.0.1 OTA but of course I can't apply the update because of TWRP. I read (here) that I need to come back to stock recovery to apply the update. I'll loose root access but that's ok, I'll root again later. My question is: how do I come back to stock recovery?
Thank you.
The same way you flash twrp.

can't find XT1032 Lollipop stock recovery on XDA, I guess I'll have to open a new thread to ask... I flashed 4.4.4 stock recovery (through MotoTool AIO software) but I haven't been able to flash 5.0.1 update then. So I think 5.0 stock recovery is required to update to 5.0.1.
Thanks for your help.
If by chance you have the link to XT1032 5.0 stock recovery, please post it!

no, I'm using stock ROM, with TWRP + root, that's it. So I just need to stock recovery to apply OTA update.
But thanks for the link, I understand how to use it to come back to stock recovery. Except... that this guide is for XT1033. Do you think I can use recovery.img XT1033 image file to flash my XT1032?
