I'm afraid of being able to return my phone to exactly where it was....

Once it's unlocked you can load any ROMs on it whether it's the StockSprintHerman or custom/cooked posted by other members. You can hard reset after you load the ROMs but you don't need to do it before you load.
You only wanna relock if you are returning the phone to sprint because if they see it is unlocked then it could void your warranty. But relock it only after you load StockSprintHerman back to it.
The StockSprintHerman is the stock OE.
