Check the twrp recovery install video it should have the root in it. Once the bootloader is unlocked just install twrp then flash supersu.zip in recovery to get root. It's pretty easy.

So what if you want to move from 4.4 to 4.4.2 from an ATT, rooted, non Dev, non custom recovery moto x? I was under the impression using this boot loader unlock method only worked for Dev editions..

You are correct. Bootloader unlock method only works for Dev Editions, and phones from T-Mobile, Sprint and other carriers where Moto gives out bootloader unlock codes. If you have an ATT or Verizon retail or Moto Maker X, and were not lucky enough to buy an unlock code from the Chinese seller (before it got shut down), you can not unlock your bootloader and use TWRP to root.
If you have a LOCKED (and not unlockable) bootloader, like ATT/Verizon, and you are on rooted 4.4 using SlapMyMoto and disabled write protection by using MotoWpNoMo, taking the 4.4.2 OTA update will revert the effects of MotoWpNoMo, patch the exploit used, and write protection will become re-enabled. You will likely keep root, but with write protection enabled, any changes you make to /system or the other protected folders will be lost at power off/on, making root less useful. Since 4.4.2 also patches the exploit used to gain root, if you hadn't rooted before taking 4.4.2, you wont be able to root it once its on your phone.
HOWEVER... If you are rooted & write protection disabled with 4.4, you could consider using SafeStrap with 4.4.2. I don't know how well it works (I have a Dev Edition, so I haven't tried it), but it is an option for using 4.4.2

Here's the info from the .zip file:
Code:
***WARNING*** ALL YOUR DATA *MAY* BE WIPED ! ***WARNING***
We are going to run the "OEM UNLOCK" command on your device. If your device was not previously unlocked, this will wipe all your data !
After the unlock, CF-Auto-Root will boot. You should see a big red Android on your device's screen
You don't need to be unlocked prior, but if you're not, you will be unlocked after the process completes, in addition to having all of your data wiped.

Have you personally tried this with a locked BL? In that zip I found the file and fastboot BOOT ( FILE NAME)

Are you sure that its a UNIVERSAL method to unlock any phone compatible? I know that is what it says, but it seems to good to be true.

I don't have a locked boot loader Moto X to try it with, but I agree with you, it seems "too" easy since we had to jump through hoops to unlock out boot loader using the traditional method. I just went by the message in the batch file, not doubting the wisdom of Chainfire

I am about to purchase the Moto X Pure Edition for T Mobile. It is very important for me to maintain root on the latest stock OS for this phone. Do any of you perceive this as an issue? If am understanding this root proceedure, it is just modifying the current LOLLIPOP stock OS that is installed on the Moto X in order to achieve root? If so, then can the phone continue to receive OTA updates from T Mobile and still maintain root? That would be awesome if that is the case!

I don't have my phone yet, but I highly doubt that it will retain root after an OTA update.

XT1096 Marshmallow ?
Wondering if any devs will port Marshmallow to our VZW model ? Is it possible to fastboot flash all files except modems from another MM firmware like the XT1092 orXT1097 ?

Only if you don't use Verizon service. When you flash the files from xt1092, xt1097, or xt1095 it loses CDMA, which means it won't work with Verizon's service. But if you don't use Verizon, then yes that will work fine, just don't flash the radio files and you can have marshmallow on the xt1096.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
Thanks for the reply, unfortunately I am on verizon and was hoping that just leaving out the radio files would work to get MM on the phone. I was just assuming that if CDMA was working on the CM roms that it would be possible for it to work on a MM rom also.
Guess I will be satisfied with having u/l bootloader, root, and TWRP installed which is way more than I ever thought would happen to this phone so its all GOOD !

Anyone have any idea why I am receiving a "bootloader cannot be unlocked" message ("Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking") on the Motorola site. I have an XT1096. I previously had the same model and was able to successfully unlock. Had to replace phone with the same model from Asurion and am now receiving this message when I attempt to unlock. I have run the process several times and have even used the Data Scrub Tool to ensure that my unlock codes are formatted properly. No luck...

It was wi-fi and not VoLTE, sorry for the confusion.
I've been having trouble activating my device with Boost since flashing custom ROMs. I'd like to temporarily flash the Stock image, then return to a custom ROM. Specifically the stock image here - firmware.center/ firmware/Motorola/ Moto%20E4/Stock/XT1766/ . I found one already that was recently made in another thread, but TWRP refuses saying my device is perry not sperry. Which is fine, as I think it's for the Sprint-specific variant anyway. So if we can avoid that error somehow, awesome (as I see the ROM name has "sperry" in the title). But yes, I'm certain my phone and that model are the same.
Before anyone says "Why didn't you-", I tried RSDLite and it doesn't recognize the device no matter the USB slot or cable. I tried fastboot, but I get "Not enough space" errors on the phone and FAIL's in the prompt. So I've come to the conclusion that the easiest way would be a TWRP ROM. And yeah, I feel dumb already for forgetting to activate the SIM before flashing.
Anyway, I hate being long-winded. I just want to verify that I've done everything I can on my end before anyone makes it.
Thanks in advance!
Hi
You Can Flash XT1766_SPERRY_SPRINT_7.1.1_NCQ26.69-56_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
with the utility that was made by rootjunky you can convert the servicefile.xml to a batch service.bat file , you need this RSD_Lite_Motorola_XML_To_Batch_Script.zip
but you have to know that you will loose the ability to add new apn and htospot wont work anymore with this upgrade , and its the only one for the phone around . look to my thread here in the same section GUIDES where is posted this thread look for "How To Get Working Apn + Hotspot After Upgrade to NCQ26.69-56 With SPerry XT1766".
extract the firmware ZIP file , in the same dir put adb fastboot plataform-tools lite and the RDS_lite Xml To Batch script , convert the servicefile.xml and run servicefile.bat with the phone on fastboot bootloader mode connected to computer with windows 10 and run servicefile.bat wait to flash and that is.
Keep it simple...
Just flash stock firmware with RSDLite or fastboot.
https://firmware.center/firmware/
Oops... Just finished reading the full OP.
Try flashing the US Retail version and see what happens.
Side Note: If you flashed a custom ROM before activating the device, it will cause issues. I did the same with a 2013 Moto G and I could never activate it with Boost, the signal read 'Chameleon', could never get it fixed. I had to buy a new phone.
I just did a thread yesterday with ROMs for all the E4 Plus models, including a TWRP flashable OTA for Boost. I'm working on the E4 now. I'll post the Boost ones first shortly.

Right on dude. Virgin Mobile here
From all my past experiences with the Moto E series of smartphones, the past few years at least, the Sprint, Boost Mobile & Virgin Mobile variants all use the same stock Android build. The carrier specific apps, unique to each provider, are typically downloaded at the time of activation. This was especially true with the Moto E LTE Surnia and the Moto G3 Osprey. If there are any significant differences with the xt1766, someone please let me know. For now I'm assuming the same stock Android 7.1.1 ROM will work for Sprint, Virgin & Boost.

Your only chance (a very slight chance) would be to go here: https://www.xda-developers.com/contact/ and contact the web master. If your account was deleted, they might not be able to help you. If it was temporarily closed, you might get lucky. It's pretty much up to Mike Channon I believe, he's the man in charge.
Edit: and don't forget to hit the thanks button when someone helps you.

I didn't mean to step on your toes, I didn't see this post until now, but I posted ROMs for Sprint E4 and E4 Plus a little while ago. Sry bro.

No you didn't didn't step on my toes. I'm very glad you made some stock ROMs available for the xt1766. That has me started on another project, which is using the telephony configurations from the stock firmware to create an Aroma installer which will fix 4G/LTE data connectivity on the xt1766 on LineageOS & other custom ROMs. Data connectivity appears to be a huge problem on the Sprint, Boost & Virgin Mobile variants when running custom ROMs. Thank you for your work & contributions.

Hello old friend. Good to see you here too. The Perry has been my latest interest. Yes, I'll definitely be in touch. I could use a little of your feedback on LTE data connectivity on the xt1766 Sprint compatible Perry.
