Root need setup help

[topchoice617]

Please HELP... I've read a bunch of ways to do things but I don't know witch way is the best way for my setup because some say if you're fully rooted do this if you're this then do that, it driving me crazy!
I would just like to go back to factory setting because I need to return the phone do to blown speakers. I'm a NEWBEE to all this so I don't know much. All I know is that I rooted my phone using unrevoked (I think it was unrevoked3) I was surprised I did it. Anyhow I only rooted the phone to use the free wireless tethering. Now I want to remove root but I don't know how, I tried it but didn't work, after reboot I was still rooted. I was thinking of just bringing it in like that, but the Superuser Permission widget is a dead giveaway I CAN'T find any way to remove it. So if anyone can be so kind to help me in ANYWAY it would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks a bunch in advanced!

Here I give you all the info I think you might need to direct me in the right way.

PS: I did the mistake and never backed up anything before rooting. Just backed up using Rom Manager and Super Manager after the fact.

I used this link to unroot mine. Very simple there is just an application that you download and does it all for you. It says when you are doing it it should only take like 10min but mine took like an hour. it had me scared for a little bit.

S=ON means you are NOT rooted. Are you sure it says S=ON as your post says? Not sure why you can't uninstall SuperUser. It may just come down to you flashing the Stock ROM. Sorry I don't have a link handy right now. I'm sure someone will jump in here and help you out with that link. I've got to head out right now.

i guess I should add using the link above will erase all your apps and info so make sure you back up your contacts and such. This will get you to true stock ROM.

There are two steps to unrooting (when you've rooted with unrevoked, that is). You did the s-on part, which is good, but whatever method you used to undo the rest must not have worked. For one, it would have replaced recovery with the stock one, plus it would have wiped out your ROM, uninstalling all user apps, and changing settings to default. It sounds like that second part didn't work for you. What file did you use? There are two ways to do it. One is a RUU, which is an executable you would run from a PC with your phone connected via USB. A much better options is a PC36IMG.zip file. These files are basically automated ways of flashing to all internal partitions on the phone. You'd want one with the contents of a RUU, that matches your hboot version. In your case, you want this one:

MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Rename that file to PC36IMG.zip, exactly. Copy it to the top level of your sdcard (not under any folders). Turn the phone off, then turn it back on while pressing and holding volume down to get to hboot. It should scan for the file and as you to flash it.

That being said, I've heard reports that a lot of people can't seem to flash this one file. I *think* it might be due to bad certs. If it seems like it's scanning for the file, but just doesn't work, open the file while booted up (do *not* unzip it), and delete the META-INF directory, then try again.
