what network is it on cause as far as i know only certain m8s can be rooted with out bootloader unlock and if the bootloader says locked it means its bootloader cant have been unlocked as it says s-on

it's not a locked phone just a euro version cid is htc_001, cannot be that relocked bootloader and back to s on without removing root?

The unlock could be spoofed and tampered could be removed with S-off and then s-on could be set.

Just install a root app like greenify or titanium backup and see if it asks for root.

it never ask for permission, but i tried root explorer and i can see all the folder, greenify didn't ask for anything but seem to work
