Obtaing newest update 3.70 help or guidance

I am rooted with unrevoked with with sprint stock rom on 3.29.651.5 pri version 1.77 003
I tried to unroot using unrevoked forever and flashing the pc36image file therefore I could recieve the ota and reroot: Well it didnt work because I am still rooted and got the error code.I want to flash the stock sprint rom with root and the newest ota,which I'm pretty sure I should go with Sprint Lovers?Problem thought is while messing with the unrevoked forever it put the S-on back on but obviously I am still rooted,so how should I go about this basically obtaining the rom with the ota with super user powers and everything.Is it still possible for me to just flash the rom to my phone as I have a 6 month old who is a major distraction if I have do it manually meaning typing in codes thru cmd prompt . Easiest way is needed { thanks

Do you have full root access? If so, start the phone in recovery and you can flash the ROM zip image through there.

You can do the backup in recovery and yes, it's a good idea to backup before flashing a new rom.

Edit: I'd also back up your wimax keys b4 flashing. Also which recovery are you using?

Problem thought is while messing with the unrevoked forever it put the S-on back on but obviously I am still rooted
I just read that you have S = ON.

"Hello" You are NOT rooted. All subsequent posts are moot cause you ain't root.

If I were you, I would run the 3.7/1.90 RUU found at HTC and get up to date. Then run Unrevoked.
