Exclamation [Q] Re-Locking my bootloader

I am wanting to relock my bootloader. I have unlocked bootloader with CWM alien rom. I am returning my phone thus the need for relocking. Or is there a rom I can flash that will not have unlocked on motorola screen while it is booting.

In the same place you found the unlock .sbf, you can find a file called "nopuddingforu.rar." This is the bootloader locker, follow the instructions EXACTLY on that page as to locking the phone again. Also, you can flash the MR5 .sbf if you want 100% stock. Be sure to do a factory reset before flashing back to stock.

That should fix your problem. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but when you flash things with RSDLite you are flashing an actual partition image. The phone internal memory is broken up into multiple partitions, such as /system, /data, etc. When you flash the full MR5.sbf file, I believe it actually flashes all the partitions in the phone with the stock images.

Now that I realize it, I was actually seeing the full MR5.sbf WITH unlock... I can't seem to find one that is locked. Here is the one to the unlock though: http://mophoforum.com/the2dcour/pudding_stock.rar I imagine you could flash that and then flash the nopudding4u to relock it.

EDIT

Here is the nopudding4u file: http://diamantephoto.com/photon_nopudding4u.rar

It consists of only the locked bootloader. So flashing the full MR5.sbf (unlocked) will return your phone back to stock but with an unlocked bootloader. After you have flashed the full MR5, flash the nopudding4u file I linked so that it relocks the bootloader.

It's here in the developer forum. Look for the post from 8/11 about the "Final" sbf. Can't miss it. Good luck!

I was thinking I could flash the unlock again and then flash the lock....
