Why isn't it possible to flash the development rom on the stock Verizon phone?
Will this ever be a possibility?
I am thinking they are exactly the same hardware and carrier so I would think that it would work.

The development build is for T-Mobile.

I am talking about the software that the Development Verizon phone uses on the Verizon non-dev phone.

The software is the same. It is the phones unique Device ID that allows the bootloader to be unlocked.

How the heck do you remove it? Or can you?

You can't without rooting.

I guess since it's allowed on the iphone, people don't really care, so they thought why not do it for all the phones. ATT does it will all their phones.

I left Verizon for crap like this. Even the Verizon Version doesn't do this.

Going from verizon to att isn't much of a difference. I guess you should have gone with tmobile if you didn't want carrier branding or bloatware. The tmo moto x has nothing.

Their Network is crap in my area. I wanted the Dev edition, But it wasn't part of the $150 off deal.

Well you could have bought the tmobile moto x and used it on ATT. It comes sim unlocked. Anyway, I'll try not to make you feel worse

I remember on my two last Samsung phones the would automatically connect to ATTWiFi hotspots.
Now that I am on a Moto Dev ED with ATT service is there a way to be able to use that same function with this phone?

Only the XT1058 AT&T variant has that functionality built-in.

Could that app be used on the XT1053 by chance?
Don't want to change my build prop tho.

hardware, it physically cannot support those frequencies.
Not true it does support all Verizon bands however Verizon will not authorize those meids for the pure additions to be activated on their network

It supports all LTE and (3/4?) UMTS bands, but not the CDMA ones. Therefore it depends on the distribution of infrastructure in your area is and which towers your phone can see.
But...just left a Verizon store being told the system said no to the MEID. Debating spend a couple hours on the phone trying to escalate tech support levels until someone might whitelist my MEID in some way. Then again, I got this phone because both Verizon and Motorola refused to unlock the bootloader of a phone I had purchased outright...
I'm thinking about switching to tmobile from verizon as I'm tired of them locking all there devices and you can't do what you want. Just wondering what tmobiles policy about this is. Do they also locked there devices?

Main reason I just made that switch.
Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk
Same here, got tired of ATT locking my phone up so i made the switch and haven't been more happy. Tmo at best doesn't even mind the phone being unlocked and rooted, have read comments from people that have exchanged phones using warranty and didn't even bother to restore stock firmware.
So I'm a newb here, but I'm wondering if it's possible to take my locked Verizon Moto X 1st generation phone, and convert it so that it will a) be GSM unlocked, and b) will pick up LTE bands in the UK.
GSM unlocked out the box and only if it's the same bands of att lte

UK uses different bands. Doesn't this thread suggest it's possible to add different bands? http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
That is a phone with an entirely different chipset,

Sure, but according to that thread, it should work on any Qualcomm device, and someone had success doing that process on a Moto G, so I thought it might also work on Moto X.

My main concern is a custom ROM and kernel, is your bootloader unlocked?

I have done none of the steps, yet. Mostly I'm trying to gauge if it will be possible on a Verizon device since I didn't order an unlocked phone initially.
Verizon LTE device are sim free out the box so that is taken care of next step is rooting and roming
