I have googled, searched XDA and moto's website but can't seem to find details on transferring warranty to somebody who purchases your moto x. Apparently on swappa they are saying you can but I can't find any info and would rather not call moto as I am at work and can't extended calls. Anybody have a link or know the exact procedure? And how or if it's possible with unlocked boot loader. I have read some accounts of moto still hooking it up with unlocked boot loader phones or giving discount on repairs of phones with unlocked booloader.

Googled "moto x transfer warranty"....this was result number one.
No, you can't. Officially anyway.

Actually.... I can't find what the Google preview showed. Lol
Also, it is only saying phones bought from moto site.
See....from the Google search preview....bit can't find it on the page.
Dunno.

I believe the warranty goes with the imei #. I bought my dev edition used and when I went to get the unlock code I checked warranty status and it was covered.

Yes, you can.
I sold my AT&T Moto X (not unlocked, not rooted or modified) on Swappa, and the buyer asked for the following info:
Name, email address, order number & Date
I sent him that info, and he simply called motorola, gave them MY info, and then HIS info, and they happily transferred the remaining warranty to him. All you have to do is ask....
See this thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/MotoX/comments/29a5q6/used_moto_x_from_swappa/
I bought a DE on Swappa used and used the warranty without a problem.
I think what I posted is just phones off the moto site. They obviously know you're info if you order from there...and maybe another person couldn't claim warranty in that case.
But yeah...carrier sold phones are probably fine.
The Moto warranty information included with my Dev Edition for Verizon X says the warranty is NOT transferrable.
I have seen posts of Moto denying warranty claims on Moto Maker phones made by individuals who were not the original purchaser.
That being said..
If you are going through a carrier for replacement, their rules may be different, and they might just accept the warranty claim as long as it is one year from device launch (since they may not be able to verify the original purchase date), and the IMEI isn't reported lost/stolen.

Sorry guys, I didn't mean to insinuate that your info was incorrect. Yes, it does appear that Moto's "official stance" is that warranty is non-transferable, but they appear to be allowing it anyways.
The phone I sold was ordered from MotoMaker, and after the buyer requested the original sale info to transfer the warranty, it obviously worked because I received this reply:
"Thought I commented earlier. You rock, thank you, it's been transferred. "
Several others with MotoMaker editions on Swappa have also reported that they successfully had the remaining warranty transferred to them. Apparently, Moto requires that you verify the original order info (name, address, email, order #, etc), then the new owner gives them their info.
As of now, they do appear to be transferring the warranty. This could change at any time, given moto's "official stance" on the warranty being non-transferrable.

Maybe I'm missing something, but there are literally thousands of websites selling unlock codes, none of them have any relation whatsoever to Motorola, or to the providers. This tells me that it must be very easy to generate these codes, and yet it seems very difficult to find out how by searching online (any legitimate information is drowned out in the sea of people grabbing at your wallet)
If you're not paying your carrier for an unlock code, why should you pay some random person on the net when theoretically it should be easily enough done yourself.
That rant over with... does anyone know how to calculate the unlock codes for a milestone? (other than the thousands of people who want money for it)
I was thinking the exact same thing a couple days ago... If there's so many sites that can unlock your device for you, there must be a simple tool out there somewhere that can generate the unlock code...
How to unlock a Verizon phone. (motorola Droid and etc)

I like the way you think. In fact i was thinking the same damn thing. Im looking at the phone now and trying to figure out how someone can generate a code through the internet.
Now there are unique serial identifiers, which in the history of coding (cd-keys and the like) is either a static, time or defined variable based scheme.
The question of "how do these companies(most small private types) know about this..." while I cannot find any definitive answer through google, is interesting. So lets eliminate the impossible. Whats left, however improbable, must be the truth.
Through the internet... unique identifiers... small companies(legit?)... secretive process... hmm...
*thinks*
---------- Post added at 09:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------
BOOM! I just figured out how those ***holes do it. The websites you see for unlocking (and services therein) is what i like to call an "Ignorance Exploit" Following the logic: Phone is locked - to what?= A cellular provider. But! the phone is owned by YOU so you should be able to do whatever you want with it, right? Yes. The unlocking is done by motorola themselves via an intermediary. (a slight roundabout for security reasons i imagine) Like... Verizon. You have to somehow contact motorola and get the unlock code. But motorola may ask "why are you unlocking it? is it stolen?" at least i think maybe. So the phone can be unlocked by the provider... Call your provider or contact Motorola directly and you can unlock your phone. The specific information however, i do not have.
Oh yeah and those people who run those sites know this, do it themselves and charge a nice overhead for the "service" Muahahaha exploitation of ignorance DENIED
I used to think this, however these people manage to get the unlock codes cheaper than the providers sell them, so there's something else going on...
Subscribed. I would love to know what is happening with all these.
If you look at the iPhone, there are methods of unlocking through hacking and exploits. So similar might be happening.

Except that these people do it cheaper than the provider does. Something else is going on... somehow tons of people are making money at this illigitamite business. And we have the choice of supporting it, or paying even more to the carriers. I want the third option. Do it myself however the parasites do it.

Websites use software to generate network unlock codes (Like SETool for sony devices). Many of these softwares requires credits to generate codes, thats why you are charged.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e using Tapatalk 2
So where do these tools come from? I doubt the providers are supplying them. So someone is still managing to break the unlock codes somehow. So why can't we do the same thing?
I just asked the support guys on an unlocking site (a very cheap one, I might add) and here's how the conversation went:

Not saying that I completely trust that answer, but it did appear to be a live person answering the question, and they offer 24 hour service with a turnaround time of 1-2 hours. I know for a fact that TELUS can't accommodate an unlock request that quickly.
This is worth investigating...
Edit: I posted dumb things here.
Next i feel ambitious im gonna call up motorola directly and ask them the legals.
Some may know I recently purchased a Note 3 N900A from a trusted seller via Ebay. Upon arrival, it worked for a total of 4 days. I received a message from the seller "I'll buy back the device for $100. 1/4 of what I had actually paid for it! Through me off a little bit. Next morning, tried to make a phone call. "This device has been blocked from network use."
Now I'm pretty sure you can put two and two together. First receive a buy back message, ignored it. Next, find your device "blocked."
Consulted with the seller. He has no intentions of unblocking it because I refused to sell it back to him for 1/4 of what I had paid. Claims he tried to unblock it but we all know. "It's blocked under an At&t account. Only the blocker can unblock it."
Now I have receipt, everything. Prove it was an actual legitimate sale. Talk to Ebay and I just bounced around, "transfer here, transfer there." I know the seller doesn't have an At&t account but where he got the phone from. She had an At&t account. Upon time of purchase it was not activated on an account. Yes I've done my IMEI background check before purchase.
What would be the correct procedures handling this case?
Probably best answered from ones who had ran into the same issue.

What I'm thinking but resolution I'm hoping for is. Device gets unblocked because with ordering a refund. Having to wait for it to credit back to my account. Another royal headache! Anyone familiar with disputes on PayPal?
I have from the actual Ebay listing sale to text messages claiming he's not interested in unblocking it.

and with this being a recent purchase "last week." PayPal may be the only bail out. Ebay isn't help. I keep getting "Please hold and that hold will last 30 minutes, sometimes 45." I do know at point of sale. IMEI was clean but once it's ran again. They'll see its not. Which will lead to questioning the seller.
Mentioning the police in your previous reply RErick. Thinking if I called the local police department where the seller is located. Would give him boost on the ass "Hey, you need to fix this or refund" thought?

That dispute status sitting on my Ebay account has been in the state of "in progress" since mid-last week. /:
I'll check out PayPal and do some digging with his local police department. Since At&t was no help! I know I can get it unblocked from the original owner if I had her name/number. Simple if she knew what he was actually doing. 9/10 it would be unblocked.
I bought a Moto X on release day and have drifted astray from Android for most of 2014 and 2015.
I have been hunting for a sealed Rogers Moto X 2013 on Kijiji for 6 months and FINALLY scored one! This is my alltime favorite phone.
It's on release firmware 4.2.2. I'm unlocking the bootloader as we speak but which firmware should I leave it on? I know you can't downgrade.
This is a release day phone, pretty sure. The battery was so malnurished I had to charge it for 30 minutes on 2A charger for it to boot up lol.

Hmmm i see you got lucky lol :good: that is a really nice sealed phone... Leave it to the 4.4.4 firmware as all of the custom roms etc require the 30.B7 bootloader and the most stable bootloader is 30.B7 also if you leave it to 4.4.4 you can take the new 5.1 OTA easily. So I see your phone is from Rogers Canada. If you have unlocked the bootloader properly Go ahead and download http://www.filefactory.com/file/5z0...4.4.4_KXA21.12-L1.26_59_cid14_CFC_1FF.xml.zip and flash through RSD LITE. IF you dont know how to flash through Rsd lite refer to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515 Good luck :good:
No, no, I know how to do all these things lol. I was tweaking my first Moto X on here for six months or so.
I do appreciate the tips and advice however! I will leave it on stock 4.4.4 in anticipation for 5.1 as you said.
Bootloader has been successfully unlocked but I am having issues with sim unlock at cellunlocker.net. They told me my order is complete and sent me an unlock code that says "serial number invalid". I have used their services to unlock two other Moto X that were build the same month as this one. Phone is not blacklisted. I told them if it's not resolved by 6PM EST I am opening a PayPal dispute and going with another unlock service as if this phone is not unlocked by tomorrow, I will lose my job (doing afterhours oncall). Nothing personal.

i feel you man got in a similar trouble some days ago.. I had the exact phone a Black colour XT1058 from rogers canada and just like you i ordered the sim unlock code... and even after 10,12 days i didn't got my code.. After a month the sim unlocking site refunded my payment saying that the moto x's from Rogers Canada XT1058 cant be sim-unlocked.. Because rogers have stopped giving away sim codes... So i suggest you to consider a pre-plan in case you dont get the sim code like me also.. Good luck...

No, I got my code. The following websites provided me with a code: cellunlocker.net, cellphoneunlock.net(quickest) and mobileincanada.com. I got impatient and while cellunlocker.net was taking a long time, I went with the other two services but eventually all three found the same code for me.

Excellent. The only other person besides myself in the world with this variant. I have posted the the boot.img,recovery.img, and build.prop in another thread to have a custom recovery made, but havent heard anything back yet.
I too am having an issue finding anything for this phone. Not to tech savvy myself but I'm sure something will come soon. Black Friday at Walmart sold a ton of these phones so I'm sure it won't be long.
+1 person
Me too man bought on Black friday and looking to unlock this for t mobile . Let's see what happen ??
EDIT:- Is someone is using for other network than straightalk ??
I too snagged this phone at Walmart on Black Thursday right after a hearty meal of turkey and all the fixin's lol. So far, all I've been able to really accomplish on this device is to root it with KingRoot, replace KingRoot with SuperSU and enable tethering. We really do need a custom recovery for this variant. A permissive kernel would be nice too.
I bought one of these phones from black Friday online from Wal-mart the Straight Talk model but online it shows S920C instead of S920L.... Does anyone know the difference?
http://www.walmart.com/ip/46716426
I don't have the device in hand yet, should be here by the 4th to verify the model number. I posted the link though.
Update
I have a SM-S920L(As screenshot above) and i bought from Best buy and it is locked to Tracfone. I called to cell representative and he told me that it can be unlock after 1 year of use.

I've read somewhere that in order to update you have to get a new SIM card from Straight talk. I myself haven't test this theory so if anyone is able to update after doing so, please post your results for the rest of us.

If you do find another way let us know. Seems like a pain just to get an update.
So I talked to straight talk and they said that the ota issue don't qualify for a sim replacement. Not to sure how the other people got there's but they refuse to send me one. I will be doing more research to find another way. They also claim that 5.0.2 is the latest version for the phone but the others that have had the sim replaced have 5.1.1
I haven't seen mention of any SM-S920L's on 5.1.1.

This variant is the LTE version. In other words, it's already unlocked. You should be able to put pretty much any SIM in.

Does this mean that LTE phones are unlocked? I always thought it was just a type of 4g just a bit faster
---------- Post added at 12:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------
After further research I have found that 5.0.2 is the latest for the phone so I am assuming that the others that had this and claim it was fixed with new sim was probably just the timing of the update being available and was only to 5.0.2.
After getting the phone in hand it's indeed a S920L and not a S920C as shown on the Wal-Mart website
Is there anyway to change the APN settings on this phone? Just got it today and i am unable to get picture messages from people i was previously getting them from with my old phone/sim. Thanks!

If its a straight talk phone you should be able to go to the Straight Talk website and get the APN APN or VPN whatever you need other than that I don't know
Nope, no way to change it. It's a CDMA/LTE phone on Verizon Wireless.
I have to say this is an awesome phone. I'm using straight talk with TWRP Recovery and Turbos Rom

Only Samsung stuff. No mention of Huawei at all. I think the clue is in the page name - Samsung Custom Blocker/MDM Remove & Unlocking Service.
I messaged them. They say they can supply the code for $35 (wtf?) and guarantee it works 100%. I don't see how they can do it while others cannot.
This joker also says he can do it. And only €4 as well. https://ministryofsolutions.com/huawei-bootloader-unlock-service-all-new-models-new-firmwares

Not sure what the €4 thing is all about but there's another link on his site that says it's €30 and other users from here have said "I've provided serial, IMEI and phone model. They sent me a code by an e-mail. You don't need to use team viewer."
I've seen enough decent posters on the other thread confirm it's legit and if it's the only option then I think I'll do it myself, just as soon as he's got some space.

Maybe you are blind but you need to click on the "P20 pro click here" and then you will get redirected to the 30 euro's page so 4 bucks is not possible for the p20 pro.

Nice guy.
I wouldn't have cared if they'd be giving me €4, it was the Teamviewer part that got me.

But the teamviewer is for people with zero adb skills so its just a service they offer and not everyone has the need for it.
So has anyone here used the ministryofsolutions.com service? Any time I check, its always "closed" for new orders. Changed till "for further notice" today.
If I unlock via ministryofsolutions will I void my warranty?

Ah, nightmare. Maybe he can't get the codes anymore? Hopefully he'll get it sorted as I'm not conviced by the other methods.
The site said open hours was Monday to Friday but I was up early on Saturday and the link was working, got my code within 2 hours.

I used them the other day. Got my unlock code within a couple of hours and worked perfectly.
Isn't it dangerous to give the imei number on these sites?
Confirmed good unlock code from ministryofsolutions.com.
Also had some add problems (on Mac) which he resolved for me.
Anyone can unlock their own bootloaders if you buy the correct Huawei tool dongle. You can buy the Sigma Key dongle for $129 which will unlock as many bootloaders as you want.

no, it says "Currently our service is supported for Huawei phones with Android security patch levels released before June-July 2018." But paying 129 for 1 unlock is a bit to much isn't it since most users here dont own a phone shop.

That's exactly why I didn't buy one. I'm wondering whether the people providing codes now are able to generate then with these kind of tools rather than getting them through Huawei, which would be very unlikely as far as I can see.
