[Q] Changing MotoMaker Greeting?

Is it possible to change the custom boot greeting you chose when building the phone on MotoMaker? Or are you stuck with the one you chose for eternity? Thanks
Hopefully there's a root workaround in the near future.

When you factory reset the phone you have the option of wiping out the greeting. So not exactly what you wanted, but it is possible to get rid of it.

Is it possible to add a power on welcome text to my Moto X Style?
Long story short; I live in Malaysia and I have to pick one of the standard colours for the Moto X Style, and I can't create one in MotoMaker because it's only available in the US.
So, is it possible? Reply immideately.

You can probably just pull the apk and put it on the X... Probably will work.

[Q] UK moto x rooting

hi,
I can't post in the developer sections, so a question here:
Has anyone rooted their UK moto X yet? Comes with 4.4.2
the motorola chat said they expect we'll be able to unlock the bootloader but I'm not holding my breath.
But rooting? Yes please!

as of right now there is no root for 4.4.2 so you have to wait and see if someone finds a way to get root
or wait and see if you can unlock your bootloader.

Did you paste the numbers in one line correctly? I've heard others getting invalid responses when the numbers aren't in correctly.
Otherwise, I just followed the instructions here:

Moto X Root 4.4.2 Verizon

Hey guys, I have a non-dev Verizon Moto x, and I was wondering if there's a way to root my phone. I am on 4.4.2 and CANNOT unlock the bootloader
Thanks guys!

Sorry to say but the answer is no. There is no known root path or exploit available to the public at this time for 4.4.2. The only option is an unlocked boot loader.
no downgrade to 4.4 possible?
no... bootloader in 4.4.2 is different from 4.4. check the threads... there's been many failures of bricked devices because of it.
unlock the bootloader. go pay that chinese guy the $40'ish bucks for the unlock code. got my code overnight. straight up and legit.
aldouse's info is correct.
I would just add one thing... paying ~$40 on the Chinese site selling unlock codes appears to no longer be an option. Seller is not responding. And rumor is that Moto caught up to the person.
Aw man I wish I knew about that seller while it worked. I would of loved to have done that. Looks like were SOL now OP

Yup. Unless you can sell your X on swappa, craigslist, ebay, etc... and use the money towards buying a Developer Edition X for Verizon.
Well, thanks for the help guys. If anything does come up please let me know. Thanks!!

No root ain't so bad on the x.
I think I have an idea for obtaining root on it...kind of use the stock recovery as the exploit

Oh, @Trpik4 btw, the Chinese Website/Middleman is back. See -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/china-middleman-t2751177
Honestly I haven't found a reason to root this device, it runs amazing. Probably the only thing I would end up doing it blocking ads and that doesn't support the content creators

Not straight up and legit. Stolen codes from moto! You want unlocked and root buy a ****ing developer edition. If everyone bought developer editions maybe carriers would be more likely to offer unlocked.

[Q] Root Moto X 4.4.4 Verizon!???

Method to root Moto X Android 4.4.4 Verizon.?
1. Did you bother searching? You might not be the first person to ask.
2. Buy a developer edition and sell your phone or take a chance with the middleman in China to unlock your bootloader.

Boot into recovery and flash one of the su zips that corresponds to the root app of your choice. If you don't have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery, then you can't root.

That "thing" is just an Urban Legend. We all know it doesn't -really- exist.

It's like Google, only contained within the forum.
But why search when you can just scroll down a couple lines to find your answer? Better yet, why scroll down when you can just click the "post new thread" button?

I don't think Verizon is pushing it to every one yet, so if you are not part of the Soak, that is why your phone says its up to date.
You can grab the OTA zip being sent as SOAK and manually flash it. (see HERE and HERE) BUT know that if you have a locked bootlaoder, you can't root it.

The China middleman works for the time I used it, but it's so much easier and convenient to just buy a developer edition now that they've gone on sale.

There is a sticky that has all the info and links needed on this subject. No, Another informational thread is not necessary and only adds clutter to the forum... And often more misinformation. ?

Just reading the stickies on XDA can solve allot of time and headaches.
