    You can get a stock rom but still with root from here.

    I've never done it before mind. Just reboot the phone into recovery mode and wipe the phone data and then install zip from SD card. You just need to put the new rom.zip onto the root of your SD card first.

    Normally you have to install the Radio first and then the ROM 2nd. The radio controllers things like the 3G, WiFI, Bluetooth, GPS etc (i think) and you normally have a recommended radio to use with a rom. There is a rom with a radio built in but i've never seen that before so i'd go for the one with the separate raidio and rom.

    Remember you want to install zip from sdcard and not apply sdcard:update.zip - you shouldn't need to rename it.
