I don't know why flashify wouldn't work.. That's how I installed this recovery.

You might want to update the link in the OP. Was able to get the latest from your main thread (after noticing that it said you had a unified recovery now instead of parallel versions).
UPDATE: Flashed this, did a Nandroid, rebooted, access to my exFAT formatted sdcard was hinky, and then my Verizon M8 rebooted while attempting to read the sdcard in Root Explorer. Upon further multiple reformats, appears to be a bad card.

Flashify is the way to go for flashing the .img file. But @andybones has some empty .zips in the themes section.

Shutdown boots to recovery instead of shutting down
Every time I chose to shut down the phone using this recovery (6.41.6), The system starts the shutdown process but then reboots into recovery/hboot. I've tried the shutdown command from within the recovery and it just reboots to the hboot screen. I originally came from CWM's touch recovery but tried Philz so I could install a few other roms that require that version. With CWM, the system behaves as it should. With Philz CWM, the reboot issue shows its ugly head....every time. Any thoughts? HTC One M8 tried with stock, Cyanogen and Viper
Philz Touch 6.41.6
Ckockworkmod 6.0.4.8
Bump....anybody got suggestions?

When I boot into recovery 6.27..5-m8vzw I have the error E:could not mount /data to setup /data/media path!
I have reflashed the recovery, I have redownloaded it and then reflashed it. If I try and mount /data I get Error mounting /data! Formatting it gives the same error and it skips the format.
I am trying to restore my stock nandroid so I can get a GPS lock and then go back to CM11.

It sounds like your /data partition is corrupt just like mine is. Take a look at this thread and let me know if you have had any of these problems if you don't mind.

I'm on Philz now and I'm getting the same error. Has nothing to do with Philz. I'm going to try what dottat suggests in the last post when I get time.
I switched to twrp as there is an option in it to repair /data was able to flash a stock ROM for gps. Thanks for that thread I'll check it out so I can hopefully switch back to philz.

Found it, will see if it works. I'm going to reflash Philz and see if I'm getting the same error.

Unfortunately for me it didn't fix my issue. I thought that sounded way too simple. It's going to take a modified RUU or something like that to truly repair a corrupted data partition. There's a guide here somewhere but it's only for GSM M8's....which suks.

I take that back??? WTH?? I just shut my phone down and entered Philz from the key combo (Hboot screen) and I'm not getting the error any more. I'm going to try and flash a sense based ROM. If this is all it took to fix my data partition I'm gonna be pissed lol! Ive spent a long time dealing with this issue.

Well, I knew it was too good to be true. I still cant install a GPE ROM. DH's ROM appeared to install correctly but it just sat there afterward and spun the nice little GPE balls around forever. Back to my nandroid of KingKang. So frustrated.
Wait for our firmware to update then try installing again, I bet it'll work then.

Man I hope so. Are we about to get an update in the near future? I saw the hybrid thread but I'm not up on whats going on really
Thanks,
I "Repaired" (lol) my data partition with TWRP and Philz stopped giving me that error but I noticed last night it took quite a while to boot into Philz and sure enough it was giving me the same error again. I tried to choose a file from the sdcard and it wouldnt mount. So, until I get my data partition fixed i'm very limited on what I can flash.
I just got this phone and am Looking for a copy of phils recovery for HTC one M8 verizon:

As far as xda goes, everybody seems to be using twrp. I would recommend using either the latest official or whatever the latest version is by captain throwback. His versions always seem to be one step ahead of official twrp.
