I don't think you even read these articles, because none of them mention any hardware changes, upgrades or enhancements other than the in-ear headphones.
OTA (Harman) 1.54.654.13 just came in on my phone

It sure would have been nice to have the option to buy this model when making my m8 purchase

This seems to be the stance of Sprint on the Regular M8. I pulled this from Sprint's forums:
"I just received some more specific details about the Harman Kardon edition HTC One M8.
The Clari-Fi and LiveStage software does not exist in the original M8 ROM.
There is no MR coming for the original M8 (at least not at this time that we know of) to add HK features to the original M8. Because...
The speakers are NOT the same on the original M8 as the HK M8. Harman engineers spent time with the device and hardware during production. The Harman-Kardon website specifically mentions the speakers as Harman tuned on the M8 HK.
I hope this helps answer your questions about the HTC One (M8) devices.

Lies lies lies.....all lies.
First rule....don't believe Sprint employees 99.9% time.... That's likely some PR stint to push back on customers complaining which is smart as 99% of customers won't of listened to Jason Dunn saying they were identical...

Well my original M8 sounds awesome with the h/k software installed. In my opinion, we have the hardware already.
We will need someone to compare the two phones side by side for the real answer. ?

Even better would be a tear-down of both editions.
Just simply listening for differences might not be enough as there could be manufacturing oddities. Similar to how the same phone produced in different factories have different LCDs.
Anyone want to tear a few of these bad boys down? :silly:
Is there a way to get a working stock recovery without flashing the RUU? I tried flashing multiple recoveries, but I guess there is a specific harman one because I couldnt boot into any of the files I found

Unfortunately for me, the stock recovery takes me to an error screen. Not sure whats up with that

That is the stock recovery. Not exactly sure what you were expecting to see. If you press Power+Volume Up you'll see the recovery menu.
Or compare the your M8 with the opposite version in a Sprint store. Of course, an early visit will be the best, since you will have the least audible interference.

What I'm trying to say is that there is no menu. All i see is a red exclamation point

I did. :/ However I just tried installing the OTA and runs just fine... Sorry for the confusion lol
Captain what app are you using to show your signal strength on your M8. In your screenshot it shows -95LTE

And those 3 would be flat out wrong....per Jason Dunn there is zero hardware difference between the regular M8 and HK one aside from color combo....

Uploading now.
Should be available here in a few minutes (I'll only keep it up there for a couple days).

I don't understand your question.
This is an update to the HK RUU, which obviously already has HK enabled. The giveaway is the 654, which signifies this update is for the SPCS_004, i.e. HK edition device.
The standard Sprint M8 updates are 651, for CID SPCS_001.2
No.
I ran the RUU first, which wipes internal and installs stock recovery. Then I booted into stock recovery and installed the OTA file that I downloaded from this thread. It went quite smoothly.
