As far as I know, the only way to install true unrooted stock roms are either by the RUU or by flashing a zip file in the bootloader. Either way, you will have to get into bootloader. Anything else will be custom roms. You can install a custom stock rom and try uninstalling superuser, but it will reflect custom software in software information. Going about it this way, may apear to be unrooted/purely stock initially, but anyone with general android knowledge will be able to tell that its been fooled with. Especially if they try to perform an OTA software update from AT&T and it won't work because it's been rooted. And then, of course, you can't forget about your phone being s-off.

I went into recovery and restored a backup I did right before I installed a custom rom which I remember I always do in case stuff like this happens. I then installed root explorer and removed super user and rom manager then removed root explorer itself. I went and try to do an OTA update and it did allow me to but I didn't do it. Right now S is off but my phone is looking as stock as it can be for now. At least I tried...

Your water indicator is on the side of the battery, pink indicates water damage which can only be replaced through insurance. What I did when I took a spill into a pond while fishing with my phone in my pocket was remove the battery, both covers, sim card & memory card. Took the phone & submerged it in a bowl of rice overnight. Put the battery, sim card & memory card in it's own bowl of rice over night. Next day I was able to use the hack kit to get s-on then plugged it into the pc & run the stock ruu before I sent it back to the insurance company. If you send it & they discover that it's still s-off they will charge you full price for the phone.

Yea i'm pretty much screwed because I can't run the RUU or the hack kit, if it's anything dealing with the phone having to reboot, I can't do it. If i restart my phone, I have to take the battery out for about 30 minutes before It will boot again. If I can get S-On somehow either through boot loader or anything that doesn't require reboot then I will be fine....
