I've encountered this problem in my L535 - the problem was that my Settings > language, Settings > region and Settings > speech were not the same. Try setting language and speech to either English (United States) or English (United Kingdom) with the corresponding region (i.e. if language and speech are set to US then region should be US also). Let us know if this works for you.

According to (implied by) this article, quoting:

"it is not clear if the HTC One will get it as well".

Also, if I may quote Daniel Rubino from his comment in this article:

"It seems Hey, Cortana is based on SensorCore + Snapdragon 80x. In theory, HTC One could do it, but it does not have SensorCore in the firmware.

It is not clear what Microsoft's plans are for SensorCore and Hey Cortana if it will be a Lumia-only feature or they will spread it around in a future OS update.
"

This was three months ago. However, still, hey Cortana doesn't seem to be available to HTC One M8 at this point.
