AT&T Moto X User query on latest build

Hey folks I recently purchased an AT&T Moto X used and I'm trying to figure out if my phone is on the latest build. I have noticed that all the other Moto X variants have different update dates and such. So for any AT&T Moto X users out there please tell me what's the latest build number for the device. (I am on 129.12.54.ghost) thanks in advance!
* I couldn't find an AT&T specific forum so I posted it in the moto x. Sorry if post is not in right spot.

I have 139.12.54 on my Moto X
Info for root:
**QUOTE**
If it is 139.12.54.ghost_att.ATT.en.US then it is the updated firmware with the camera fix and the exploit won't work.
If it is 139.9.51.ghost_att.ATT.en.US then you are on the firmware that the phone was shipped with upon release and the exploit will work.

can i flash this ?

Well first of all i would like to say hello to this wonderful community, I've been following threads and news on XDA for many years, since I got my Galaxy Spica, and I wanted to learn a bit more and become more active, especially in this "new world" that Motorola means to me, since the Moto X is the first device I own that is different from the Galaxy series... but well, nowdays I own an Latinamerican variant of the X, the XT1058 that came with the America Movil 4.2.2 ROM, and yesterday I just spend like 5 hours trying to flash the AT&T 4.4 Kitkat variant into it... until I Succeded, but i just has TOO MANY BLOAT , so I was wondering if it is posible to flash through RSDLite the T-Mobile 4.4 without Bricking the X... I have seen ppl XT053 ROMS on their XT1058, but I dont know what path should I follow...
1) Go back to 4.2.2 downgrading the bootloader and flashing a 4.2.2 rom and then upgrade to 4.4
2) Just flash over the AT&T ROM the TMO 4.4 one though RSDLite ?
I'm sorry if im asking things that may sound a bit noobish, but in Samsung phones everything was way too easy compared to this... it just took me hours to discove how to use the emulator in order to get the ID for the locked bootloader...
btw... also sorry for my english
thanks and greetings from Chile !!
Option number 2 - flash over the AT&T 4.4 with the tmobile 4.4 and it will work fine.

(Q) Solved

Hi everyone i have a situation with my moto x, a few months ago i updated the X with the retail 4.4.4 of verizon (i was on t-mobile 4.4.3) after i updated my moto x model change from XT1053 to XT1060 (i saw that when i used antutu) , now i wanna install the 4.4.4 retail from T-mobile but i don't know if there will be a problem because of that.

The Australian version is XT1092 (the same as EU I think). I think you can unlock the bootloader and root it.
Just follow this guide, it will help you further. :good:

Just to confirm for anyone else who is reading this thread and wondering,
the Australian Motox 2014 can be bootloader unlocked using the Motorola website.
I didn't end up getting one, I got a nexus 6, however my friend got a Moto X 2014 from The Good Guys,
and I went through the procedure on their phone and it will unlock.
Thanks to X96 for your advice in this thread too.

[Q] Need help with this riddle. Any advise would be appreciated.

Is the Moto XT1097 with the android version 5.1 able to he downgraded. Thanks for any kind of answers at all. Been looking at different sites and all kind of tutorials. Still haven't found any answer to my questions. Thanks in advanced.
Here is my riddle?
I got a moto XT1097 bought from at&T in America with the 5.1 android version. How do I root it? Is it worth to even downgrade to try and root it that way . I know for a fact the boot loader cannot be unlocked. OEM Is one that can not be unlocked. Thanks for any advice, help, anthing at all. Been wracking and researching away to root it and all of my roads lead to a headache.
The AT&T xt1097 cannot be unlocked. You can root with MOFO if an updated 5.1 image has been made for your device. Since your device cannot be unlocked, you cannot downgrade.

Thanks. I do not have the 5.1 image for my device at all. When I bought the phone it was updated on the spot. I know for sure right now these versions are not rootable. Guess I am going to have to wait or root. Thanks for the help.
