They are sending me a new one for free because i had the 3g problem after having it for twelve days. No fixes worked including refreshing my plan. My problem is its rooted and has a custom rom. They want the old phone back lol. I got 5 days to decide what to do ;b.

In the stickied thread at the top there is a link to a page that tells you how to return "mostly" to stock.
Just use that and it will suffice for getting your phone sent back to VM.
I assume, in telling you this, that you hadn't done a nandroid of your stock rom before messing with it?
If so you can just flash that back and then put the stock recovery back on your phone.

See I am still being the newb. I did the nandroid backup on my phone. So basically all i have to do is boot into recovery wipe everything then go to backup/restore and click restore? *facepalm* assuming this is right.

The nandroid backup was apparently made after i added some programs like super user , titanium backup ,etc .. what is the best way to wipe these. Can i do setting factory reset now that i am back on the main program to just delete all the new apps and then format my sd card?

NO

Never do the factory reset within the phone when u have a custom recovery. I think there is a thread to unroot. Haven't used it myself so I can't help much there.

I used the mostly stock way to sent 2 OV's back to VM so it does work
