Default Unlocked bootloader, 2.3.6, want to relock and go to stock, sbf?

I just wanted to know, I unlocked the bootloader on my atrix 4G on 2.3.6 but I'm having random restarts and I just wanna revert back to stock and see if that will fix it. Do I just find and flash the 2.3.6 sbf via rsd? Any help is greatly appreciated, I've spent hours looking for an answer but no one seems to know or want to help.

Flash a fruit cake if you can find a link for it since they are all dead and that will get you to stock but you will still be unlocked.

That's another problem, with all the links dead I can't find anything. Idc about being unlocked forever, as long as I can hopefully flash something to make this phone stop restarting by itself.

That's basically just flashing 2.3.6 sbf through rsd, if someone else can confirm that this works then I will give it a whirl.

there's no known way to "relock" the bootloader,the only thing available is that you won't see the "unlocked" at the top,but bootloader still will be unlocked.

You could have just spent a couple of minutes and looked through the threads.

Here a few threads regarding using RSD, two of them from just a couple days ago:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1549599

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1552145

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1552843


I have commented in all of them because I have used RSD in the past. But PLEASE, read/research as much as possible before attempting anything.

Also, "Search" does work:

Well, I can help you out finding things if links are broken. I was mainly commenting on the discussion of using RSD but if you are having issues with dead-end links I can look around as well. Can you be more specific in what you're needing? Did you want "Factory"-stock or stock as in just back to Blur? Have you tried a fruitcake?
