Hi everyone. I currently maintain the bounty thread for the Moto X. As I am unsure of its future I have ordered a Moto X Pure Edition. I am currently an unlimited VZW customer, however, I am wondering if what you guys think I should do.
I could keep the unrooted VZW Moto X or use the Pure Ed. with only VZW LTE coverage. What are your thoughts?
Come on really?

Oh my
Pure edition will only work with TMO or ATT

And why would you order the pure and not know if you were going to use it anyway. Maybe ask this before placing the order.

Upon bootup it shows LTE and then briefly afterwards it shows no network. Guess the decision has been made for me.

I guess since it's allowed on the iphone, people don't really care, so they thought why not do it for all the phones. ATT does it will all their phones.

I left Verizon for crap like this. Even the Verizon Version doesn't do this.

Going from verizon to att isn't much of a difference. I guess you should have gone with tmobile if you didn't want carrier branding or bloatware. The tmo moto x has nothing.

Their Network is crap in my area. I wanted the Dev edition, But it wasn't part of the $150 off deal.

Well you could have bought the tmobile moto x and used it on ATT. It comes sim unlocked. Anyway, I'll try not to make you feel worse

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the verizon moto x factory Sim unlocked? Shouldn't I be able to use att, straight talk, or T-Mobile Sim?
Yes...I have one that I use with Straight Talk

Im about to order a Straight Talk AT&T sim + first month.. for SURE this works fine on a verizon moto x?
Do you have to manually input APN settings, or does it just work after you pop the SIM card?
Thank you.

I just bought a Verizon Moto X through Moto Maker and am wondering if I can activate it on Page Plus?
Thanks!

There is a tutorial on how to flash the Sprint variant to PP. Not sure if the same applies to the VZW edition, but probably.
There are a couple of caveats, however. First, you need a USED 4g sim card - otherwise the phone will constantly notify you that its missing SIM or not activated....
And second, you will not get 4G on PP. Limited to 3G EVDO only.
Good Luck. Let us know if you are successful.

@micahman did it work out for you?
Needed a used 4G sim card?
What steps did you take?

I haven't tried yet because I don't have a 4G sim card I'm not using. Also I'm waiting for a response from this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...int-moto-x-to-page-plus-t2732342/post53445822
I'm going to try and track down a used 4G sim card this week and I'll try and let you know.
And why does it take so long?

When, I cannot say for sure. Likely very soon. As to why, this gizmodo article gives an excellent explaination:

The part you are interested in is called "The Big Hold-up".
I asked motorola and at&t and they don't know when either when 4.4.3 will be released

That's the retail version. Not AT&T. Those are update by Motorola.

it depends. The updates for the X seem to be rotating as to which carrier gets it first. The one Update, Verizon was first. Another Sprint was first. This one T-Mobile/GSM Unlocked is first.
But there is no "set amount of time"
Since they sell these phone for free with contact... We might not ever get an update from att...

every single provider, besides for verizon is getting 7.0 on the n6. verizon decided they dont want 7.0 on their towers, so no 7.0 for verizon, ever.

That's not true. 7.0 for the N6 us not out yet for ANY carrier. That being said, the preview 5 is available. It runs fine on VZW.

If i were to bet, it would be VZW distributes it last.

I wouldn't.
Has anyone on VZW had any Nougat update pushed to them? I haven't - still MOB31K
Honestly, if you're waiting for an OTA update, you're doing it wrong. Google has a page where they host not only the ROM images for flashing using Fastboot, but also complete OTA zips for sideloading using the stock recovery.
