In fact, you can restore at any time.
But if not on stock kernel, after restore, the phone will get soft-brick.
So it's better to restore after flashing the stock rom.

Can't really find a recovery matching my current software number, the closest one is recovery 2.24.401.1.img - can i flash it over 2.24.111.3 software?
Thanks

I think you can. I don't know about 2.24.111.3, but for example, 2.24.401.2 has the same recovery as 2.24.401.1. Anyway, trying it shouldn't hurt, you can always flash another stock or custom recovery anyway.
One thing though (don't know if that was a mistake on my part or intentional), when I flashed a stock recovery and rebooted into it (I was trying something on my phone), it wiped my sdcard.

You can lock your bootloader by restoring the TA partition (assuming you made a backup) but you must go back to stock first, otherwise you'll get problems.
To get back to stock, download the correct ftf from here and flash it using flashtool.

thanks

What SW version are you on, i you are S-ON you cannot flash a lower version than the one already installed on your phone, it has to be a similar or higher version, plus it has to be precisely for your Model or it will fail.
The only option is to restore stock ROM Backup through TWRP and flash stock recovery...
