I currently just got a Verizon version moto x and using it on my at&t network.I'm new to the Verizon moto x and just want to know if 4.4.2 is rootable and unlock boot loader on the Verizon version? If so will it cause me not to be able to get connection using at&t or does it not matter?
Short answer. No. Sorry.
If it was on a version lower than 4.4.2 you could root it. But its on 4.4.2, so no can do.
However, go to general thread and see the China unlock thread. For $45 you can unlock the bootloader..IF your phone is on his list. Then you are golden!
That's the only hope you have. ?

Is there not a custom recovery available on 4.4.2 yet?
Is there a root option on 4.4.2?
I have a unlocked moto x
You say your unlocked. Your reference is to the boot loader right?

Recovery is separate from whatever the base OS version you're running. You can root 4.4.2 if you have non-stock recovery, but that's it. Given your post though, you should just leave the phone stock.

I want to at least root it I need my xposed framework
I posted this on the other thread you opened, which was basically the same thread.
Toss the toolkit and see this guide. Has everything you need to know. Use fastboot and learn more about this stuff...versus clicking in a toolkit.

Also, the dev section definitely has kit kat recoveries. 3 of them.
So I unlocked my moto x bootloader and installed 4.4 stock rom. I'm a ting user, so my phone uses Sprint towers. Now I need to update. Like a dummy I tried to take the ota and my phone boot looped. So I went into titanium backup and froze the update. But I would like to get the latest stock rom.....what do I need to do?
Do you have a custom recovery? Xposed? Removed any system apps?
Ota won't work if you answered yes to any of those.

See this guide...the section on how to take OTA on rooted device.

Hi,
I checked the sbf.droid-developers site but the Rogers stock FW for 4.4.4 is nowhere to be found. Anyone know where I can grab a copy?
Thanks.
It likely has not been leaked yet. You will probably have to wait. ?

Sorry about the forum - I thought I was in Q&A. My bad..
KJ, I think I may have found it: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/dd05c058d3ff8dbe/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=100&page=1
I also filed a ticket at Motorola Support but don't think they'll be of any help.
No Rogers there other than 4.2.2. So that's very outdated.
The file is listed under "RCI"...

I'd want to be 1000% sure first. Ota was less than a month ago.

You're risking a lot if you try it.
Um... I was looking for 4.4.4 for my 1st gen Moto X... Which is a XT1058. The 2nd gen X is on Telus so I wouldn't have asked for a Rogers flash...
Perhaps you've confused me with someone else?
Sent from my Moto X
I did... Notice the edited post. ?
Well, the version numbers match; I'll extract the build.prop and see which model it really is for.
Sent from my Moto X
Well, the xml file does confirm that it's for the Rogers XT1058.

Again, I just find it odd that it's a month old.
I'd proceed with caution anyway.
Hi, first time posting. Please be kind. Happy Holidays for whatever you may be celebrating or not.
I treated myself to an AT&T D950 for $200 new. I unlocked it, used ioroot to unlock easily, and removed some painful bloatware.
I'm now trying to get Lollipop OTA through Software Update but I'm just getting an error message that the phone is not registered.
Can anyone shed some light as to how to deal with this?
I know the TMo model is D959 but from research here it seemed to nbe worthwhile to go this route.
Thank you.
Yeah even though it's unlocked you're getting that era because it wants to try to go to t mobile towers and get the a_t_&_t software because it's an a_t_&_t mobile phone is the best way I can explain it to you and there also is no way to my knowledge lollipop for any lg flex period
---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 PM ----------
So my only guess in order to you for you to get the most resent version of software for the AT&T phone would be flashing it using LG flash tools and the most recent .To T file
---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 PM ----------
And I could be wrong someone correct me if I if so
Very good. But is there any way to remove all the AT&T system and install the T-Mobile system? It would be very weird to have the system connect with AT&T but all other functions through T-Mobile. Plus, I do not have an AT&T account.
Please advise. Thank you in advance.

Will this work on any carrier phone such att branded s9 will this allow us to get Hotspot working
Does this require unlock bootloader first?
What are the benefits of installing this over my T-mobile software? No root yet, right? Does it at least unlock the Sim?

No as you are flashing between different Samsung official firmware.

None, it doesn't unlock the sim or allow root. Most people use this to remove carrier bloatware or as a stepping stone to convert from one carrier firmware to another.
I had auto update off and it did a auto update to June 1 will this no longer work? I've been waiting to hear back about the Hotspot I asked about and yesterday it did a auto update

I believe the latest U1 firmware and Latest AT&T firmware match(both end in ARF4) so you should be able to still do this.
Would you by chance have a link to latest
