Put TWRP back on. Go into recovery. Keep connected to PC. Transfer a sense ROM and flash it. Assuming you're S-ON: flash MeanBean. Or flash a different sense ROM that has an S-ON installer. Or fastboot flash boot boot.img when you install.

Unlock the bootloader again, first of all.
Delete your current recovery.img.
Re-download your recovery.
fastboot erase cache
install your recovery again
fastboot erase cache
boot into recovery
when connected you should be able to transfer files from PC to phone.
Otherwise you might need to use USB-OTG I think.
wipe data, cache, delvik/cache, system
Install the ROM.
reboot to bootloader
pull boot.img out of your ROM download
fastboot flash boot boot.img
reboot to system.

Problem solved. Thanks to everyone that responded. I really do appreciate it!!!!
What exactly did you flash? The Mainver error only relates to the kernel IIRC.
The only thing I tried to flash was the custom recovery after I accidentally ran the ota update with the custom recovery still on my phone. When I should've flashed back to the stock recovery before accepting the update. And now I can't get into custom recovery. When I try to reflash armon ra it won't take. I've lost root access even though I have superuser still on my phone.

how are you trying to reflash Amon Ra ? , what recovery do you boot into ? As long as your still unlocked you should be able to flash Amon Ra through Hboot it has nothing to do with root access at that point. Even odder that the OTA flashed through the custom recovery, thought it would error out and not take if it wasn't the stock recovery. Unless you ran Con's Stock rooted, but then you wouldn't have an issue with superuser or root access.
Should be able to flash stock recovery through fastboot relock and RUU then if you really are stuck. Otherwise , no reason you shouldn't be able to reflash Amon Ra and reroot through recovery.

I take it the phone can't boot up at all? Have your tried fastboot flashing the stock kernel?

I'm trying to flash it in hboot as ph98img. And when I go to recovery it seems to go to the stock recovery with the little phone and a green circle but shortly after it turns into the red triangle and phone symbol.
Try flashing the recovery in fastboot. Download the latest version of AmonRa here and extract the recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img. Take that file and place it in the same file directory you place the tools to unlock your bootloader (needs to be in the same directory as fastboot.exe).
Put your phone into bootloader and connect to PC and flash the recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img in fastboot using the command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-ra-vigor-3.13-gnm.img

Nice! Glad to help
So I flashed cm 10.1 before achieving S-Off. Bootloader unlocked, rooted with TWRP installed. It sits on "quietly brilliant". I can get into fastboot and recovery, but cannot get any files onto my sd card. Can someone help me get back to a stock rooted rom so I can achieve S-Off properly? Or if it's easier, I'll go all the way to complete stock and start over. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You most likely need to fastboot flash the kernel (boot.img) so the ROM will boot. Just another reason to get S-off

Would it work to flash the stock kernel and then stock RUU? Also, twrp cannot mount my sd card.

You have to install the stock recovery first as I recall, then you can RUU.

i tried flashing stock recovery from fastboot and i got a "not allowed" message.
Why can't you take out your sd card plug in the pc and place meanbean rom on there. Flash meanbean which will flash the kernel. Then flash stock rooted rom.

Would be better help if I knew more of what is going on. Were you trying to S-OFF with CM10.1 installed? Did you just flash CM10.1 while S-ON and can't get the phone to boot? But anywho... with what I know now:
If you still have the CM10.1 ROM on your phone:
take the boot.img out of the .zip and
fastboot flash boot boot.img
that will install the boot.img / kernel and should allow your phone to boot.
Then you can go back in TWRP and flash a stock ROM.
To flash a ROM in fastboot:
fastboot -w
to wipe you device
fastboot update ROM.zip
that will install your ROM in fastboot mode.
fastboot flash boot boot.img after too I assume.
Or you can even do so by using adb in TWRP:
adb shell
mount data
adb push d:\custom_rom.zip /data/
Wait until the push finishes and restart your device to recovery again with "adb reboot-bootloader"
mount data
mount /data /sdcard (mount the data folder into your sdcard folder)
find your ROM.zip
Confirm the flash by following the on-screen instructions
if no errors then reboot the device
Also, in TWRP with your phone plugged into the computer you should be able to mount the phone to get access to your storage on your computer. Not 100% sure why that would matter or why you need to get to your storage though. I'm pretty sure that's called USB-OTG.

Also another option.
If you're trying to get the .zip for the boot.img just download the version you need from the computer, open the .zip, pull the boot.img out and do the fastboot command to install the boot.img / kernel.
If you need or want to RUU then you should be able to:
fastboot oem lock
that will obviously relock your device
then you can fastboot oem rebootRUU
then fastboot flash zip RUU.zip (assuming you have your proper RUU already) when on the black HTC screen
after that completes fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then you'll be back to stock and should be able to boot the device, root, or whatever you please.
I think I covered every option. Lol.
Personally, I would just RUU again.
I've done this before with CM10 while trying to gain S-OFF and just RUU'd my device to see what would happen.
Keep in mind: anything can happen. I went into the process knowing there would be a possibility of a fail in which case I would smash the phone and pay $150 to asurion to get another device since I had the protection from Sprint.

are you using the recovery you had before you unlocked or you installed a different one after you unlocked?
I used the same recovery but now, i dont know why, cwm recovery has been replaced by LG stock recovery...
you need to flash a new recovery.. the one installed before unlocking isnt official cwm.. check and make sure you still unlock..
and how can I flash a recovery? I cannot boot my phone, and cant use fastboot
you going to need fastboot to flash recovery if its still unlocked.. if its Locked now than you will had to flash stock kdz files onto the phone and re-unlock it..
but when i type "adb reboot bootloader" in order to be able to use fastboot my phone reboot and stay stuck at LG logo and my Bootloader is still unlocked

Perform a

This will wipe everything and restore the radio partition.

Stock DNA Recovery Image
To flash the Recovery:
Place the file in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.
Put the device in fastboot mode:
(Volume down and power until menu appears, select fastboot using power button)
Connect the device to the computer
The image is easily installed via an unlocked bootloader with the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery imagename.img
For example, I provided a recovery img named dnastockrecovery.img
So you would type:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery dnastockrecovery.img
The image must be in your fastboot working directory.
Or you can use Flashify from the Play Store.
I recommend getting used to and familiar with doing it via fastboot though.

when u go to flash your custom rom back to you need to do a dirty clean or can it be a clean flash by wiping cache system sdcard everything.

You'll have to install a custom recovery first. I use TWRP. Install your custom ROM onto the sd card. Boot into recovery, make a nandroid, wipe in recovery> Data, Cache, and Dalvic, then install your ROM and reboot.

I was trying to ruu'ing and my sd card would not mount through the android recovery. So i wiped Dev/cache, cache, and system, thinking that it would fix the problem. Now i can not get into recovery mode and factory reset doesn't work and my phone is not being recognized by my PC. Anything i press in bootloader just reboots my device back to bootloader.

I was trying to ruu'ing and my sd card would not mount through the android recovery. So i wiped Dev/cache, cache, and system, thinking that it would fix the problem. Now i can not get into recovery mode and factory reset doesn't work and my phone is not being recognized by my PC. Anything i press in bootloader just reboots my device back to bootloader.

If you place a Sense ROM PH98IMG on an external microSD card, does it install? Try that.
I cant seem to find an PH98IMG that will work. At this point do i have to flash boot or install an OTA (3.14.605.12)
I can not flash anything from the recovery. I also can not find an PH98IMG that would work at this point. the only think that im able to do is to get into bootloader which is relocked and i have s-on.
Do i need to unlock my bootloader to get into recovery?
How do i reinstall the whole system file?

You are on current OTA firmware, and you said you were S-On so you can't RUU, there isn't one available and you can't go down a version.
You need to unlock your boot loader, get a ROM zip (any stable ROM will do, but I suggest Tachyon or Infection), download TWRP/CWM/PhilZ recovery, and you will need working adb/fastboot on a Win7/XP machine (Win 8/8.1 will not work).
Extract boot.IMG from ROM and recovery.IMG (name might vary) from recovery zip and place them in the directory with fastboot. Now start phone and fastboot and boot recovery with 'fastboot boot recovery.img', now in recovery wipe/format everything except external microSD, then Install/flash ROM zip. Reboot.
If you follow these instructions it should just boot now.
If you want stock, there is a ROM zip that the complete stock image with root applied in the development forum, its a page or two back though.

What are the TWRP/CWM/PhilZ recovery for?
Custom recovery, you need one, not all three... To wipe/format partitions and install custom zips
