I was able to unlock the bootloader and root on Moto X XT1052 - Moto X General

Hey guys,
So I didn't actually know that Motorola had unlocked this version of Moto X 1st Gen. I'm happy. I think I will be installing some custom ROMs.

You mean they allow unlocking on their website for non-dev versions? I'm on xt1060 and just tried to unlock to no avail.

Yes. I'm on xt 1052 and I thought I'd give it a try and it gave me an unlock code. Non Dev version.

Maxx and Moto x are different software and hardware
don t try
So how does one attempt to flash something to the turbo? I see people saying it will brick the phone - is this an automatic assumption that its possible to fully flash a firmware to the droid turbo (brick or not)

its not an automatic assumption. However, i gotta admit, id be tempted to flash xt1250, not xt1225, on my turbo. im trying to make things easier, though. #unlockthedroids

New to Systemless Root. Question.

I have been rooting devices for years, most of them Samsung before my move to the Moto X Pure.
I have achieved systemless root. So far I've only used it to enable Sprint tethering, a simple build.prop edit.
What do I need to know before flashing roms? Can I flash roms as I normally would after my wiping protocols?
Thanks for any help in advance.

Rooting the Moto X PURE Edition 2015
Hi how would I go about rooting the Moto X PURE Edition 2015 without UNLOCKING the BOOTLOADER? I tried using Kingroot but it did not work. What worked for you?

Yes you can normally flash ROMs. As far as I know rooting dont have any effect on flashing ROM.

Root? without bootloader unlock?

Any developers interested in creating a root for the Moto G4 Play? Especially the Verizon variant due to the fact it seems that the bootloader can't be unlocked?

There won't be one. They're considering it the same as the moto g4 Amazon prime exclusive version and neither Amazon nor moto will be releasing a bootloader unlock for the 1607.
As for the 1609, though, you could call their support line and request a bootloader unlock code, since the chart says nothing about the Verizon variant, so it's assumed that it counts as any other non-plus 4th generation moto g.

Yea I tried calling moto but they were not helpful and said they did not help with bootloader unlocks. Which is just absurd. I'm really at a loss cause I've tried everything available but I can't get the 1609 rooted or bootloader unlocked.:crying:

Yep, I went the same route too and thought I was getting somewhere. After 5 or 6 emails with support, they told me to call and ask for a bootloader unlock. I thought that meant it was going to happen, when really it was just them passing the buck and letting the phone support people tell me no.

May need the help of a some one experienced in cracking bootloader's and or rooting. I'll keep digging for a root solution and as soon as I get success I'll post here. If anyone else can help in the search or actually crack the code (as I like to say) and post it here, that would be great.

RESOLVED: Root for Moto G5 Plus Amazon Edition

Question: Can I root the Moto G5 Plus Amazon Edition?
Answer: The Moto G5 Plus Amazon Edition is rootable via initroot so long as you have not updated the firmware. Development of initroot for various phones is happening in the Moto G4 Play forums.Here is the thread for the research and scripts for initroot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3639316

Are you sure about that? I only ask because I read through a lot of that thread and nowhere in there did I get the impression that this worked for the G5 Plus Amazon. In fact, it seemed like they specifically said it didn't work.

A bump here... I have the same question. Have things changed since November?
Bump again... Just wondering where this device stands as my mom needs a new device and I was looking at getting this one as none of the new / current Moto devices from Verizon have root methods... She uses the unlimited hotspot on her old droid turbo at the moment...
Bump..I would surely like to know also...
The answer is the same... No, it cannot be rooted EXCEPT if you happen to have an old one that was never updated, so December 2016 (?) security patch... I don't remember the exact date but it was late 2016 or really early 2017, then it was rootable by initroot.
Any update after that, or one that shipped after about May 2017, does not have an old enough version to root with initroot.
The bootloader is still not, and never will be, unlockable... Even if you purchased the ad removal, or later got your ads removed for free, this will not change.
I have unlocked the bootloader and successfully rooted this phone and am currently running ViperOS.

That's what I heard too. Since a few days the Amazon edition is unlockable via the Motorola website and after that you root it as any Moto G5+.

It seems to be only a short while when it was possible to unlock amz locked devices. I think it was some kind of glitch because the server was down for maintenance after that.

Just got this phone today and didn't realize the model, cannot get unlock code, so they still have them locked down? I'm gonna hate going through a return and wait process again.

If you've got the Amazon edition with ads there's no way to unlock and root the device.
