You have to relock the bootloader :
"fastboot oem lock"
Then "fastboot reboot"
and run the RUU as administrator.

Flashing a radio won't wipe your device.

Copy the img to your adb folder, enter your phone in fastboot mode, connect your phone to pc with usb cable, open a command window in your adb folder and type: fastboot flash radio radio.img*

or in this case: radio_firmware.img

and fastboot reboot.

Just rooted/s-off my device and decided to factory reset it to start using it for regular usage. I accidentally clicked erase internal storage in tmrp recovery and deleted the whole os on the phone as well. Is there any way to side load a rom with recovery to get the phone to boot up again or is my phone practically a brick till a RUU is released. Anyway I can sideload you backup? This has never happened to me some I'm nervous as hell

Day 2 with my T-Mobile M8 and I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP, and attempted to S-off with no luck as Firewater doesn't work with all HTC One M8's at the moment. So my bootloader says **Tampered** and **Unlocked** ... Still S-On

It wasn't until after that I noticed I have a defective display and have to take the device back. Read the OP and I'm not 100% clear what I need to do to get my unit back to 100% stock with the bootloader back to normal. Any assistance would be highly appreciated.

In the OP you'll find the stock TWRP nandroid backup and the stock recovery.
Download the nandroid backup,extract it and copy it to the twrp folder in the sdcard then restore it via TWRP recovery.
Download the stock recovery and flash it via fastboot, the command is: fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery".img
Then lock the bootloader via fastboot too. The command is: fastboot oem lock

That's it, should be good to go.
