Not sure why it is giving "large image" error. I think this is a common problem on your M8s variant device. But not sure what causes that error, as I am not that knowledgeable with the M8s as I have the "regular" M8.

In any case, that RUU is not expected to work. As mentioned, you can't flash older version RUU ("downgrade"). The RUU number is 1.13.111.2, and the current OS number on your phone is 2.12.111.1 (larger number 1.x, 2.x, etc. means newer OS version). I don't think that there are RUUs available for newer OS versions for the M8s, that I have seen.
