[How-To] Flash a leaked RUU

NVM I figured out how to relock. Is it normal to see a Security warning below relocked?

I renamed the file, put it on my card but as soon as the bootloader screen comes up it starts installing the ph98img.zip right away. and I choose yes to update then? When it restarts and goes right back and does the same thing. I let it do this again, when the phone reboots after this time i should remove the battery quick and take the sd card out and delete the file so it doesnt try to run it again a 3rd time? I didnt actually need to use the command prompt at all? Does that mean I didnt do this right, or the way I did it is ok also?

Yes it's normal to see relocked...and since I'm so late to the party I'm sure you've already figured out that you ran the RUU successfully.
 
MrSmith... you are a genius and might have just saved me money.

While I did have my phone rooted before (from a guide on this site), I never installed a non-verizon OS. I tried doing the OTA update and my phone turned into a glorified paperweight. Verizon wouldn't help me because of a crack on my screen from months ago. Thanks to this thread, I was able to get an OS to load.

You are my hero.
