Help reverting back to stock!

First at all I will apologize if this is covered somewhere but I tried searching and can't find nothing related.

Anyway...I have a Telus DHD which is rooted and with a custom rom (Revolution HD 5.2.3 by Mike1986) and latest CWM.

My question is how can I remove everything custom and root and basically revert to stock.
I also have a gold card which I made when I was downgrading the rom before I rotted the phone.
Thanks!
 
Sorry nobody replied to you! It seems like nobody jumped in because we weren't sure ourselves, and didn't want to give you the wrong information. Would you like to tell us how you fixed it, then we can help anyone else who has the same problem as yourself :)
 
silentdan, apologies no one has responded.

I'd meant to respond when you posted, but until yesterday, I was unsure of the process myself and wanted to make sure what I was saying was correct before giving any info.

In future, rather than suffer in silence, if you don't feel your post is getting the attention it deserves, drop me (or any of the other forum regulars a PM) and we will do what we can to assist.

Hey guys sorry I did not mean to be rude and I understand that everyone else has a life and sometime replies don't come very quick.
Like I said I have a Telus phone which was branded with the Telus logo.
So I followed a guide on rooting and installing custom rom.

I managed to accomplish everything and installed Revolution HD 5.2.4 and was happy with it.
But then a friend of mine wanted to buy my phone badly and offered me a price I could not refused.But the catch was he wanted the phone to be stock everything so that is why I needed help.

I tried running the stock 2.3.3 Telus RUU but it always hanged on the black screen with the HTC logo and never flashed.
So what I did was run the RUU again but this time I did not proceed further and navigated to the temp folder on my pc and copied the rom.zip file there to my desctop and renamed it to PD98IMG.zip then copied it to my micro sd card.
Then reboot the phone and hold volume down and entered the boot loader and installed the zip file from there and I successfully reverted back to stock but still managed to keep radio s-off.

When I sell this phone I will go and buy the same but brand new cause I love this phone especially the screen size.

Sorry again for sounding like a grouch in my previous post,this forum has lots of useful info that nudged me in the right direction.
