Im planning on downgrading the phone back to near stock, i say near stock because there is no offical USCC rom

Yes i read that in several threads about it not being safe after i got stuck in the locked bootloader, but i did find a way out of it and now have a system set that i can go back to the stock radio just fine and back up!

i have done it to 5 of these just fine and never once had to have the phone replaced

downgrading is a good idea for the following reasons,
#1 in case of warrenty work
#2 in case USCC releases an offical rom with GPS enabled
#3 in case you want to go back to the stock settings taking out GPS and getting all the OE files and programs back
#4 to start over incase you let the sprint customizations run that change everything on your phone even how you access certain features like the ##000000 and so on. its easier to go back than it is to fix a ton of differences

and im sure there are other reasons that im not thinking of.

Im making this guide to hopefully help some USCC people with this phone since it took me a few solid days to track down the information and try out different things as well as some of my own and get them to work right the first time! and over the course of this i had to downgrade my phone several times to start over!

any other questions? because i feel like your making a statment that it cant be done when it can be done for i have done it. and im sure others have as well, its just not all assembled into and easy to use blueprint (guide)

This Down Grade Guide would be very helpful now.......

For some reason after I got done with everything All the stock stuff works great................BUT any thing NOT stock gives me an error that the .exe file is either bad or unsigned or untrusted and will not start after I install it.\

Any Ideas?.....

I retried the steps and the RUU will not let me re-upgrade this radio.

Kinda Clueless on what to do next.....

To reassure that I am not stuck on Bootloader or a bricked phone. Build os does what it needs to if I run it. Just a bricked head from trying to figure this out.
