Issue resolved.
------------
I believe I "bricked" my =Atrix 4G MB860, AT&T, Unlocked, UNROOTED/STOCK= phone while trying to get it to connect to 3G service in SE Asia.

I inadvertantly entered the "US band" option found via the *#*#3646#*#* pathway. (it's a select radio band option that looked like I could specify a non-us band.) I googled the symptoms and from what I can tell, reinstalling the SBF using RSD-Lite is the way to go. I've tried to locate a how-to that I feel comfortable following but can't quite find it.

I have downloaded:

1FF-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P012.sbf
&
RSDLite 5.7

I'm running Windows 7 on an Asus i3core computer. I have all the USB cables etc. that came with the phone. If someone can point me to the thread/website that clearly explains the process for reinstalling the sbf, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
