Need stock details of my m8.

[worgamerx]

Hi there, recently i bought used m8 and its android version is 4.4.3, it is made in ireland as htc said. It is s-off and has supercid 11111, It means previous owner customized this device. I need to know its orignal Cid and Mid so i will update it to marshmallow( since i am not receving ota updates), so please help me out what should i do...I also dont know it has stock rom/ recovery. Bootloader is locked. I guess it has stock recovery. I want any stock upgrade because this rom has many bugs like delaying messeges e.t.c. Thanks in advance

Power off your phone, then boot it up by holding both the power button + vol down. This will take you to the bootloader. Post here what it says there. To navigate in the bootloader, use the vol keys to change selections, and the power button to select. You'll need to know that to select reboot.

Already mentioned:
CID:111111
S-Off
Bootloader is locked and i guess it have stock recovery.
Software number is: 2.11.708.2
I think rom is stock because it matchs with stock software number. But i want to upgrade so suggest me what should i do.

Already mentioned where? Certainly not here. That CID means absolutely nothing.
And the ROM is stock because it matches with what? You have matched the OS version in bootloader, or the version-main number in you getvar with the software version in settings > about you mean?
If that is your software number, then you probably are stock, since I don't know of any ROMs that use 708 as a base.
Do you have TWRP recovery still installed? You can tell if you boot to bootloader and then boot to recovery (you need to select hboot to get the recovery option in bootloader). If the TWRP logo comes up, then you do, and this will be an easy fix by going to this thread to find a stock ROM backup and stock recovery for you to flash back to stock so that you can get OTA updates on your device.

Twrp is not installed.....its still on stock recovery....i matched the software number from the settings in about section with other device running this OS.
The main prob is its supercid is changed so i dont know which rom is compatible with it.

Well, almost any new ROM isn't compatible because your firmware is too old. You need to update that first. That's what I'm trying to help you with here.
Also, that phone isn't Irish. None of them are. UK yes, Ireland no. It's an Asian model. Specifically, from Hong Kong.
The only way I could offer help is if you were to unlock the bootloader again. Instead I will mention @ckpv5 here (he'll get a notification because of the mention) because I'm pretty sure he has a link to the RUU you need to update.
He's a really helpful guy, and will respond here when he sees the notification. He's not logged in now, so just be patient.
Good luck!

Your device has Hong Kong firmware but the MID is EU.
You won't get OTA with this combination.

I suggest to install EU RUU as this is easier, no need to change MID to Hong Kong.

You can follow this, direct update to the latest Marshmallow
