I decided today to read a few guides and watch some videos on how to root my HTC One M8 w/ Harman audio. So I successfully rooted it, and installed Carbon Rom. At first things went well, and to make a long story short, I would REALLY like to revert back to my original firmware. All bloatware included, I dont care. I really have no idea what I'm doing with any of this, and the internet keeps bringing me here to find solutions so I figured I would post my question. Currently I'm downloading an RUU with hopes that it will magically fix everything (file name: RUU_M8_WHL_K444_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_Harman_3.30.654.2_R_Radio_1.08.20.0916_NV_SPCS_1.52_003_release_395175_signed_2 (1).exe)

If anyone could please just give me some sort of direction on reverting back to the normal firmware, I would be IMMENSELY appreciative.

There are instructions on how to get into recovery and download the stock firmware, based on the results returned from running certain fastboot commands.

Please keep in mind that I don't have the M8, nor have I tried the steps mentioned, so this is entirely at your own risk.

Good luck!
