Root Return to Stock Help! Potentially bricked?

Hi Everyone,

i am stuck trying to return the phone back to stock. I followed these steps that i found on XDA


(1) Download this Package (Which is the HTC RUU in Executable Form) : Here
(2) If you have unlocked your HTC DNA, you must first lock the system again.

First boot into Bootloader
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Once in Bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem lock
(3) Boot back into Bootloader
(4) Run the RUU with Administrative Privledges
(5) Follow the prompts, and Profit

I got my phone into bootlader, and locked the device, it worked fine. Now when i run RUU, i get error 170, which means the device is not recognized. I installed the drivers via PDAnet, also via htc drivers, and android SDK platform tools. Im not totally clueless on what to do, but i think i am stumped here. everything i have tried has gotten me the same error 170. I cant load anything on the device as it is now locked :( any help?
 
You can re-unlock if you need to,with your original token.

RUUs can be finicky. Another way to run it is to extract Rom.zip,then flash that with fastboot.
