Need help going back to stock rom -won't relock and now stuck on boot loader -

I have been trying to go back to a stock rom so I can sell my mogul.
I'm trying to follow the directions here.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanStockHome
I got to relocking part and to the point where it tells you to disconnect and reconnect the usb.
I did this but couldn't get the phone to activesync again. I tried going through the rest of steps but ended up getting stuck at the bootloaded screen.
I'm on XP trying to go back to Sprint's 3.35.651.2 (Radio 3.35.04).
I'm currently on one of No2chem's rom.
I have no idea where to go from this point. Any help would be great. Thanks
PLease supply you current radio, rom, and bootloader version
Thanks for your help.
However, I have no idea how to get that information for you.
I'm guessing there's a exit bootloader I need to run???
When the phone first turns on does it go straight to bootloader? What version does the bootloader say?
Yes straight to bootloader.

at the white part it says Serial then USB when I plug the usb in.
I think you need the 2.xx boot loader for the GPS radio. Try this Relocker:

Sorry, I'm pretty noob. I need specific steps. lol
Right now, I'm still stuck in the bootloader screen.
What do I do to get out?
Where do I get the 2.xxx bootloader and how do I run it? I'm totally lost now.
Ok, so your stuck in boot loader with a pre-gps boot loader. Download this rom/radio and flash:
ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/ImCoKeMaN/roms/Sprint_2.16_OS.nbh
That will bring you back to stock pre-gps rom. Then you should be able to go straight into flashing the official upgrades from Sprint, if you wanted to.
Thanks. I'll try it now.
I'll ya know it it works.
I tried flashing to that rom/gps you gave me. Here are the steps I took:
-Placed file in to RUU folder
-Ran RUU
-Went through the steps and clicked "Update"
-It says it will update to: "Image Verision: Sprint_2.16OS.O
At the updating screen with the % bar it stays at 0. After 1-2 mins it gives me the "ERROR [262]:Update error" then ask for me to go through the steps to recover. I go through the recovery steps and try to flash again and get the same problem.
Error 262 means it is having problems connecting, not sure why. Instead of trying to relock, lets try unlock for now and then go back to relock.
Here is a GPS ROM unlocker. Give this a try and should bring you back to where you started. DO NOT use the relocker you used.
I'll try that out.
After I get back to where I started.. I read somewhere i can just download the exe. file from htc and upgrade without relocking? is that true?
I have flashed the stock Sprint rom with the phone unlocked. The only reason I can see to relock is for warranty reasons. I have shipped phones back to verizon with custom roms, nothing was ever said
You should try to flash this rom. ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/ImCoKeMaN/roms/Sprint_2.17_OS_RUU_signed.rar
You can try putting in ruu but I suggest you flash by sd card. Name .nbh to TITAIMG.nbh. then place on 2gb or smaller sd card and turn on phone. Once bootloader reads card it should say loading start the process.

I made an assumtion here, just wanted to check, you are in bootloader when you try to run ruu, right?
If you still cant't drew is right, but the rom (non-gps) on sd card and it will load.
Yes, I'm in bootloader (the tri-colored screen). I'm still stuck in it.
I tried flashing through SD card as well. Here's what I did just incase.
-Used 1GB card
-Formated FAT32
-Renamed the file here ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/Im...RUU_signed.rar to TITAIMG.nbh.
-Moved the file to the card and is the ONLY thing on the card
-Inserted in the phone
NOTHING HAPPENS
The only time I can get it out the bootloader screen is when I'm flashing with the RUU. It goes to the white screen with the % bar but then gets frozen there.
I tried using that Relocker but it wouldn't run.
Please provide your bootloader, rom, and radio version

I don't know what my rom and radio is...
All I know is that I was on one of no2chem's roms. And tried using that "back to stock" wiki guide.
Well I assume you have a gps rom with a nongps bootloader. You need a bootloader version of 2.xx. Please list your carrier. Also radio and rom versions are listed on bottom right of screen when you turn it on.
It goes straight to bootloader when i turn it on so I can't tell whar rom it is.
I was using sprint but I have cancelled my service.

Need Help With MT3g 1.2!!!Stuck on HTC Magic Boot Logo!!!!

i did all of the steps from the unlockr and my phone never loaded the rom just stuck on htc magic boot logo. someone please help!!!!
which rom are you flashing?
help!!!!
i was trying to root and fastbooted the HTC Dream non tmobile. sappimg.zip file. and my phone wouldnt get past the boot screen
its theunlockr.com instructions
couldnt you just download the right sappimg on your goldcard, go to bootloader mode and let it install?
So, at anytime during the install where you saw the "Dream G1 part," you didn't think, "wait a min.... I have a MyTouch3G...I shouldn't be using this?" Also on those guides there is RED warning messages telling you to be careful. You could brick your phone flashing.
You're going to have to get the RUU ROMS for the MyTouch3G. Then follow the procedure that Adamsville MITM provided.

When you said you did all the steps does that mean you completed the entire process outlined in the unlockr's guide?

[help please] MyTouch 3G issue

I am attempting to root a mytouch 3G 2.1 (w/ the headphone jack)
I followed the directions from theunlockr
got my goldcard working (according to the link on that page that tells you how)
After flashing the sappimg file on that page, I still had touch screen. (the site said I wouldn't)
and when I got to step 7 - the step about flashing through fastboot - I got the error "(remote: not allow)"
I flashed the attached file and got the same error.
I searched some more and found a supposed fix I downloaded the first and tried it, got "model ID incorrect! Update Fail!"
At this point, my phone would not show up in adb, but it would in fastboot, and it would boot to the login to google screen (didnt bother logging in earlier)
Tried the second one, same error.
Reset the device, booted fine. Restarted into fast boot, it is recognized, but still getting error "(remote: not allow)". Still not showing in adb.
My phone currently says:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A SHIP S-ON G
HBOOT-1.33.0013 (SAPP31000)
CPLD-13
RADIO-2.22.23.02
so my phone works, but it is not rooted and I still have the stock recovery. If I could get Amon_ra on it I feel comfortable with doing the updates through recovery.
And if I understand it correctly, this root is like a droid, caused by the ROM and not actually part of the stock ROM, correct?
I've done 4 g-1 and a droid in less than 3 hours each, but I've been at this all day.
Help! What can I try?
I tried to show links, but I'm new to the board and cant.
Ok, So I will document as I go, so either someome can help me at some point or I can help someone else if they have the same problem.
Redownloaded the sapping file (through the cyan wiki)
Reformated my goldcard through phone.
used a sd card adapter and HxD to put goldcard back on sdcard.
transfered new sapping file to sd card
booted in bootloader, got "Model ID Incorrect" Update failed.
I do have the three skating androids though... is that stock?
I will try rebooting my computer, maybe windows is being stupid...
Rebooted, Windows is not seeing the phone. Neither is the HTC sync thing, and neither is adb
Changed USB ports, uninstalled unknown device, changed usb ports again,
ADB recognized it (not in bootloader mode)
ok, found another site with adb commands. forums .tmonews. com /index. php? topic= 10412 .0;wap2
did a google search for "vodaphone sappimg", came up with a forum post on here, downloaded it to my goldcard, still get model ID incorrect.
so I started over from the beginning using cyan instructions. update failed again.
No idea what is going on!

[Q] 32A stuck on RUU, ROM version 3.54, hboot 0007

I have a ChugHwa Magic 32A, which I believe I may have bricked.
I applied Roger's recent Magic RUU (3.54.631.3), which worked fine. I then needed to provide assistance to someone who was trying to root their phone (on 3.03.751.4) , so downgraded my phone using the ChungHwa RUU, which installed the 1.76.0007 SPL (S-ON), but failed to complete the install.
Now I'm stuck in RUU. If I try to use the Rogers RUU to upgrade again, it says the current image version is 3.54.631.3 (even though the SPL and radio are of the earlier versions), when I try to fastboot flash anything, it gives "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)".
Any attempts at using a different RUU freeze with the empty progress bar on the phone, and "Sending ... Updating the ROM image on your Android phone..." on the PC. After four or five minutes, the PC says "ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR".
I've spent the larger part of the day trying to fix this, and I've exhausted the ideas I can think of. Could anyone provide direction?
