Are you sure you want to unroot? If you're having issues with the rom, why don't you do a complete wipe and reflash

Try going into the device manager and finding your handset in the list. You can try uninstalling the driver and then reinstalling it.
Sometimes "Error 140" is a driver problem. Also, try running the Android 2.1 RUU executable twice in a row and see if that works.

Try booting into recovery and wiping your cache and Dalvik cache. That might clear up the issue.
Unfortunately, themes can sometimes have wacky effects on certain ROMs. I hope that you made a Nandroid backup of your ROM before you applied the theme.

You need an HTC Sense based ROM to activate your Sprint HTC Hero on Sprint. An AOSP ROM will not work because it lacks part of the software to initiate itself with Sprint the first time it is activated.
You can restore your original Nandroid of your stock Android 2.1 ROM from way. You can also just flash an HTC Sense based ROM like Liquid Sense 2.1 and that should work with activating on Sprint as well.

That should be alright. If all else fails, just return your handset to stock via the Android 2.1 RUU.
I hope that all goes well. Good luck.
