I guess you didn't see this thread in the GENERAL Section -> [One Stop Shop] How do I root my Moto X - Let's end the confusion
Your phone falls under the first point.. Unlocked bootloaders. (Maybe it should be titled "unlockable bootloaders")... so in particular see this post -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54671918&postcount=70

Read the original thread this QA thread is about, and you'll see PwnMyMoto was patched a very long time ago. It worked with 4.2.2.
I suggest you see this thread in the GENERAL Section -> [One Stop Shop] How do I root my Moto X - Let's end the confusion And read under the section titled... Locked bootloaders on Android 4.4.4 Or you can read just this particular post in that thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54671918&postcount=70
Yes, those are the same links I put in Post #4 here, but the info you need is contained in them too.
Failure to install
I tried installing the root app however I wasn't able to. The following is the command I gave and the response it gave.

What ROM or Android Version is on your phone?
The vulnerability that PwnMyMoto exploited was PATCHED/FIXED in the first OTA update to 4.2.2 w/Camera Patch (october/november 2013). So unless you're using the initial 4.2.2 ROM that shipped on the X back when it was launched in September 2013, PwnMyMoto wont work!!!
In other words....
Please be advised that.... PwnMyMoto only works on the initial shipping 4.2.2 rom from Sept 2013. If you have taken any updates, you can NO LONGER USE PwnMyMoto!!
This Q&A thread was started by a BOT on these forums, not a person. The initial thread it points to discussing PwnMyMoto is from September 2013 and Jcase even posted in the first post of that thread that the "latest OTAs patch this exploit" on Nov 3, 2013... i.e. it wont work with newer roms/updates on the phone.
Will this work on Moto X 2nd Gen AT&T Lollipop?

No. The vulnerability which was exploited by this process has long since been patched.

1. This is an old Exploit that has been patched a while ago.
2. The Xt1052 can be boot loader unlocked, so you don't need an exploit like this... You can root by unlocking the bootloader, flashing twrp and installing SuperSu.
When i go to use the PwnMyMoto and click install it says App not installed
please help

What phone and what ROM?
As I stated earlier in this thread, The vulnerability which was exploited by this process has long since been patched.
So unless you have a 2013 X with 4.2.2, you can't use this.

Why do people post in a forum with a phone that isn't even the subject for the mod!?!?
Can someone please take the time to tell me how to Install xposed on moto g 2014 1068...im on CM12.1... I really get confused in the xposed thread and have failed several times..
Hi everyone. As the title says, I'm new to the moto x 2013 (xt1058). I have experience flashing roms and kernels with another device, so I'm not new to this kind of stuff.
I wonder whats the differecen between the two forum branches: "moto x 2013 android development" and "orgininal moto x 2013 android development".
My stock android is 4.4.2
Do you guys recommend me some roms, or should stay on stock?
I'm not a big fan of bleeding edge soft, but I'm VERY insterested on stability, smoothness, non-bug, non-lag sistems. (If you know MiniCM7 by nobodyatall, you'll get the idea).
So, with all that said, again...Do you guys recommend me some roms, or should stay on stock?
Thank you very much!
Somebody plz help. I'm not asking a difficult question
http://www.xda-developers.com/introducing-original-development-forums-for-more-devices/
Whether you stick with stock or a custom ROM is your personal choice. Both have their own pros and cons, and there are plenty of roms to compare 'em all.
Ok, thanks! So, where can I find more stable and bugs-free roms ? (no matter if it is KK or LL)
What I understand from the link you gave, is that original forum has developers own work, and that make me think this is the forum for me. Am I right?

I see almost everything is experimental. Nothing to do here, I guess...
I use Verizon and have a XT1096 that I unlocked the bootloader on and installed CM 13. I really miss the Moto specific features so I'm looking to go back to a Moto ROM. Are there any Moto Marshmallow ROMs that will run on my XT1096 and still connect to Verizon radios?
Thanks!

Awesome, thank you. This is exactly what I'm looking for, not sure how I missed it. Though it seems like it is still a bit too unstable for my liking. I will definitely be keeping an eye on the thread to see how it progresses and I'll probably make the jump soon.
Thanks!
I am kind of new to rooting after a long gap. Can someone point me to root moto x4 project Fi varient from scratch. I would really appreciate it.
