Try fastboot erase cache after install TWRP ...

Can you post your fastboot getvar all without serial & imei no. ?

Usually this error is related to partition problem .. maybe flashing the firmware, then TWRP follow by fastboot erase cache command can fix this.

First - a stupid question (because it happened before) - you do flash a correct version TWRP meant for HTC M8, right ? The one that you downloaded from https://dl.twrp.me/m8/

If the answer is yes for the above, try flashing firmware.

Get the firmware fw_6.16.708.1.zip and read how-to in my thread here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60218734&postcount=5

Then unlock the bootloader with the unlock_code.bin .. when successfully unlocked, the system will reboot but it will fail .. press both power + volume up button .. when the screen goes black, release both buttons but press and hold volume down button. This will get you to hboot, press power once to get to bootloader/fastboot ... flash TWRP then try to restore backup.

Bro, thanks a lot for you help, I really really appreciate it. I fixed my problem with flashing the nandroid 4.16.708.1 with TWRP 2.8.7.0 but I have the same error that it makes me to flash my cellphone, I dont have signal and the cellphone doesnt show to me the imei, do you think if I put the imei in fastboot can it works? (Sorry for my english) and one more time thank you for all your support .

So .. that's your actual problem. If it is not hardware problem, you can fix this by flashing firmware as I mentioned above. A few people succeed to fix the same problem by flashing firmware.

Man, you are amazing, thanks for your support , I did all your instructions and it works, my cellphone now has signal and all its correct, only one thing, the backup 6.16.708.1_ckpv5 maybe its wrong, I couldn't flash it, but it doesn't matter, I installed nandroid 4.xxx, thank you one more time , greetings!

Maybe the 6.x download is bad..
You can install stock recovery then check OTA to update from current 4.x
