I'm assuming u mean gingerbread, in which there are already threads about this.
U need to be s=off and a locked or relocked bootloader. Flash gingerbread ruu in bootloader and you're done.
Please search before posting

If you're s-off then don't HAVE to lock the bootloader, it still works with an unlocked bootlader as well.

I know, i know i am a noob, but i have a question. If i root my Motorola Atrix, did that unlock the bootloader. I want to install the ROM Aura and in the Requirements: it said you need an unlocked bootloader, and i know i am rooted but not sure if i have an unlocked bootloader. Any help?
Rooting does NOT unlock the bootloader. What you need is use the IHOP (AKA Pudding) method.
Info about that is in the Dev section. Just search for IHOP and that will give you the info about how to unlock the BL...

I was wanting to unroot this EVO 3d. Just making sure that its ok to take an OTA update on HTC unlock method once the update comes through. I couldn't find anything regarding if its ok to proceed once released.

If you are wanting to root:
Rule #1 - Do not take OTA updates. Always let a Dev check it out and post it up on the Dev Forum before updating. More times than not, you will lose root and receive an updated HBoot.
Wanting to unroot. I used HTC method to unlock bootloader wondering if this will cause an issue technically receiving an OTA update will unroot and set to stock OTA firmware, radio, data, Wimax, and hboot also stuff I missed but what will happen to an unlocked bootloader through HTC methods.

Reading comprehension this morning is not up to par yet. Sorry.
You may have to re-lock it to get OTA updates, "fastboot oem lock"
I was thinking that since the boot loader was the only thing effected by the HTC method it may not read the signature correctly for the OTA. I know the RUU has to have a lock signature for the hboot to ID the update or maybe nothin will happen and it will update fine.

Yesterday I Relocked and ran RUU to take the OTA. It used to say Locked before I originally unlocked to root and now it says Relocked in bootloader. Does this matter?

No

So there is no 100% way to unlock and Relock and not tell because it now says Relocked.

if your s-off u can get rid of that.. mine says locked s-on.. but im really unlocked s-off.. that bootloader custimizer will fix that
It is correct what everyone is saying....once you unlock there is no physical/official way to lock it. It will always say relocked unless you do the mod to have it say locked. Its still relocked just doesn't "look" relocked....if that makes sense. Hope that clarifies it for you.

HELLO,
FIRST I UNLOCKED MY BOOTLOADER WITH THE T-MOBILE OPTION IN HTCDEV.COM.
I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY GOT S-OFF BUT AFTER GETTING S-OFF ,
I NOTICED THAT IN MY BOOTLOADER MENU SHOWING THAT MY BOOTLOADER IS LOKED NOW.
BUT I HAD UNLOCKED IT BEFORE PERFORMING S-OFF.
CAN ANY ONE TELL ME IS IT OK OR NOT ??
SHOULD I UNLOCK IT AGAIN BEFORE FLASHING ICS RUU ??

It's a part of the s-off process it's normal use hasoons aio kit and unlock it again with your previous unlock.bin file and yea your safe to run the ruu but you can't flash the recovery without unlocking the bootloader

Thank you sir,
So I will unlock it again and then flash ics ruu ..

You've come a long way, but s off is weird, it re locks it. So you'd have to unlock it again then flash the ics ruu or firmware IN BOOTLOADER NOT RECOVERY. :thumbup:
