[Completed] Can't install RUU on bricked HTC One M8s - XDA Assist

Hey guys,
So... I've got a little problem. I've got a bricked HTC One M8s and I'm trying to install a RUU which gives me the error 171: "Waiting for Bootloader" (It does restart my phone into fastboot USB). There is currently no OS installed. Fastboot is recognizing my M8s but ADB can't see my phone anymore and most of the time I get the message "Waiting for Device" (used to work). Because I tried to install the RUU I relocked my phone (fastboot oem lock) so TWRP recovery can't load atm.
When I boot into Bootloader I get this information:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** RELOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***

Thanks!

Hi !
Find the official RUU for your device download website and try again , it should exactly match your device variant

Can you help me what RUU i need to use?
The reason for all this is that i upgraded OTA to android 4.0.3 then 4.0.4 and now my wifi has "Error" on it.
So i was hoping to reflash via RUU to resolve it, I have a nand backup TeamWin TWRP, even flashing those backups doesnt fix the wifi "Error" issue.
If anyone can shed some light on what to do, i'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Darren.
WiFi "error" fixed, but ...
Just to follow up here folks, if anyone has/had similar issue...
Since i couldn't use my WiFi connection to try look for another OTA update, I used the "Internet pass-through" -to- USB cable to my PC as my internet connection on the phone. I downloaded the OTA update from 4.0.3 to Android 4.0.4. WiFi "error" fixed, but now i have the common WiFi authentication bug that seems to be common on the HTC One S. I can connect to my WiFi network when WPA is off, and the network is open, as soon as i try connect, WPA on, i always get authentication failed, invalid pass. Pass is 100% correct as other devices connect to it no problem.
Seems many people have this issue.
Anyway, i may journey on with this issue, and hope JellyBean 4.1 (due for release now) comes to my network on O2.
Thanks,
Darren.

[Q] HTC One S soft bricked. Solavei Service CID htc__017

While installing the VenomOneS 2.0.1 Rom the other day I got stuck in a boot loop..
I, being new to all of this (a whopping 24 hours deep), decided to just run through the list of fixes, first attempting to load my stock backup which ended up just loading a whole lot of nothing leaving me ROMless and then attempting all the possible fixes on this website I could.
I fear I just dug myself into the hole that is wonderland to where have no rom, cannot get any kind of recovery to work through fastboot and believe my usb debugging somehow became disabled..
I resorted to re-locking and attempting to run the stock T-mobile 1.53 RUU because the Solavei service is just a branch off of T-mobile and it seems there aren't any stock Solavei roms available.
Originally 1.84.1135.17 710rd. My CID is htc__017
Ant help with my predicament would be killer and a donation would be involved :/
Apologies for the noob that is me!

[Q] Can't update HBoot or roms

I have a T-Mobile HTC One and I am trying to get it updated to something other than stock. Right now I have CM 10.0.0 running but none of the gapps will work (all crashing and play store won't load - just says retry). I can't get any other roms to work. I think my main problem is that HBOOT is showing 1.14.005 and I have S-ON. I can't get any RUU program to work. They are all failing. I can ADB push and fastboot flash but nothing seems to work. I can't seem to find what I am missing. I just would like to get a complete working rom without the HTC stuff on it.
1. How do I get S-off?
2. how do I update Hboot?
3. are there any rims that will work with the old hboot that I can just flash right now that will work with all of the Google apps?
I just need this phone to last my daughter another 4 months. I thought I could just put a clean rom on this one and get her up and running. 2 days and 100 flashes and pushes and I am worse off than I was! I don't care what version of Android it is running as long as it is JB or higher.

First you need to flash stock recovery, the you have to relock the bootloader. Once done you can flash the latest RUU or HBoot update. With updated HBoot you can unlock the bootloader again, flash TWRP and a custom rom.
Here you can find the stock recovery
and the latest RUUs (2nd post) --> LINK

[Q] Unbrick/back to stock HTC One S, HTC__y13 model.

Ok so my HTC One S went to boot loop during Friday night. I some how managed to get it back to factory setting even though I don't know how because every time I tried to go to factory reset from bootloader phone just went back to bootloop. Well once I got to factory state I of course had lost all my photos which I wanted to recover. So I used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427 to root my phone in order to recover photos. Well I could not recover photos and my phone went back to bootloop.
At the moment I can't access recovery or factory reset. When I try to access them phone gets stuck on the HTC screen with red text "This build is for development...". I can access bootloader and fastboot/fastboot usb but don't know how to proceed. Any advises?
