Here is a thread that has all the information you may need. Once you gain S-Off you can certainly unbrand the phone and you may be able to SuperCID it to Sim unlock it too (no really sure about that as my Bell IncS was already unlocked when I bought it off EBay).

hmm check the bands rogers uses. I'm using one on telus, and before this I was using a rogers x10 on telus so I would say it should be fine
oh ok so rooting it will allow me to use it on other carriers? Revolutionary supports 2.28.666.3 right?
no you still have to sim unlock it..
rooting alone won't do that

Hi
On ebay one excellent condition moto x is listed.its xt1058 model.I am from india and planning to buy this.But can i unlock it?if i can, will all the functions work after unlocking?also will i receive all moto x updates on this?Or if there are any other problem i can face after unlocking a phone,please elaborate.?
One more question in my mind why mint conditions carrier locked phone are available in larger quantitites in usa.Is something fishy about these phones?
Seller has large quantities like 30 phones to sell all mint conditions xt1058 at and t models.From where such phones come in large quantities?
If its an ATT XT1058 it can be SIM unlocked, but not Bootloader unlocked (unless you can use the Chinese Website/MiddleMan).
The other questions, I can't answer.
[Q] huh? Belongs in "Q & A" section. Sorry, not trying to be an ass. Rules are rules...that's one of the simplest.

I have no first-hand experience buying sim-unlock codes, so I can't recommend one personally. If you search the Moto X forums, there are a few different ones mentioned that users claim to work.

While SIM locked, you can only use ATT SIMs in the phone. After you SIM unlock you can use the SIM from other GSM carriers. I do no know what GSM and LTE bands your carrier uses, so I can't speak to how well the ATT XT1058 will work on your carrier once SIM unlocked.
I don't know if you will receive updates with the ATT XT1058 when using it on a different carrier.
There are many sources on the internet selling the SIM unlock code for ATT Moto X (XT1058).
Bootloader unlocking allows you to easily root and disable write protection, as well as flash 3rd party or "after market" recoveries and roms. There is only one source for Bootloader unlock code for the ATT XT1058, and that is in the Chinese Website/Middleman threads in the general section here.

By "country locked" do you mean "sim locked" or "Carrier locked" where you can only use a Sprint SIM (since its a sprint branded phone)?

Thanks!
Can you share your imei in pvt, dont know where did you confirm it that its xy1060.. Because i dont think its xt1060, kindly reboot too bootloader and check the barcode option, there might be written your model name, also i need some extra information about ur phone, is it working fine i mean call 3/g etc? What have you done lastly that your phone stopped accepting sim as bootloader is unlocked you can convert your phone too any model..

Hello, you should check the ACTUAL model of your Moto X. Reboot into bootloader and enter into the barcodes section.

Make sure that you have a Moto X XT1060 by going into bootloader and scanning the barcode from there.
I am saying this because i had the same issue but when i entered in bootloader and scanned the barcode the model of my Moto X was XT1056 not 1060.

Hello guys !
Been searching around for a solution and got here. I have a Moto XT 1060 with locked bootloader and running 5.1. Can anybody help me unlock the bootloader and/or root the phone 'safely'?
So far ive found one method to root it but its unsafe and there is virtually no way to unlock the bootloader. Any solutions will be appreciated.
I am also from Karachi and can come to Sadar if required.
Thanks

Am also facing the same problem. I upgrade my moto x to lollipop and since then my sim is not working.
Did you flash the "modem" and the new boot sectors too? In the manual flash it's "optional". I remember I had to do it manually from 4.4.4
Hello everyone , I have no idea if this thread is closed or not but please help me,
I have moto x in which I had CM 13 ( nightly) then I decided to flash stock rom, then after flashing stock rom , my phone stopped detecting my sim card... please help
