moto.
The carrier only updates its branded phones.
All updates come from Motorola. Carrier branded phones just require carrier approval before the firmware is released.

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.
I read on the general forum that the Verizon X owners that registered on the Motorola website for the Soak program got invites. I registered a dew days ago and haven't received any notification yet. Anyone else register get an invite yet?
I am hopeful that with no branding on the T Mobile variant we will see a relatively prompt update without having to wait for T Mobile to push the update.

T Mobile has nothing to do with Moto X, they don't sell it. There's no carrier bloat or branding. It is GSM unlocked. I don't foresee T Mobile having anything to do with it. My IMEI doesn't show what kind of phone I am using on their network because it doesn't exist in their system.

I agree. I don't think T-Mobile will do a soak test. Pretty sure only ATT and Verizon did soak tests for the first OTA. T-Mobile got it way ahead of either of them.

Just because you registered on the MFN doesn't mean you'll get an ivite for a soak test.
Also, as said, soaks are carrier dependent. But they are also device dependent.
Just because a Soak is announced for the Verizon Moto X XT1060, doesn't mean that a soak is also happening on the XT1060 that might be available from another carrier, or a soak is also happening on another variant of the Moto X, like the XT1053 or XT1058.
So I'm thinking about buying an unlocked moto x originally through Verizon but was used on t-mobile, my question is can anyone guarantee me that it'll work on att if I put my apn settings and will i get LTE ... any answer is appreciated

Ok... So you're thinking about buying an unlocked phone that was originally a Verizon phone but was used on T-Mobile that you want to use on AT&T? That is a bit convoluted, each vendor uses different bits of spectrum and a Verizon phone isn't a pure GSM phone such as AT&T or T-Mobile might have, I would be cautious, why not just get an unlocked AT&T device?
That being said, if it can be used on a GSM network like T-Mobile it should work on AT&T, the problem being that - as I said - each carrier uses different bits of the spectrum.
Save yourself the potential hassle and buy the proper AT&T model.
Yeah i am being cautious I'm passing on it thanks for the responses

Trying to learn as much as possible about the Moto X before I buy. I am on at&t, and am deciding between the dev edition and the at&t.
Has anyone gotten OTA updates on their GSM dev, and if so was it Moto Google or at&t? In another words, you use an unbranded X on at&t and they update, do you also get all the bloat?
TIA
I've gotten updates on both att and aio wireless with my developer Edition. No bloatware at all. Updates come in same way as with a non developer version

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...
