[Q] How can I update my X1072 bootloader? - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Moto G 2nd Gen 4G LTE is a X1072 model and I want to update it but I can't find I place to anywhere. Please help! Being an X1072 owner is so suffering..:crying:

I'm curious, but why do you think you need to update your bootloader? What version do you have now?

Hi buddy,
But in the towel root xda link, they have mentioned that it would work only for those moto devices that are prior Jun 2014.
Does it work on Moto G second gen Indian version.
Anyone tried? I am yet to receive my phone. BTW how to check when the device is manufactured?

This is not a surprise. The exploit used was fixed in the kernel on June 3. Any kernel built later than that will (or should) have this issue fixed. The Moto G (2nd Gen) kernel info shows it's been built on July 17, so quite a bit later. The exploit used by Towelroot will be patched.

[Q] sunshine app

Has anyone tried the sunshine app on the new moto x? Mainly asking Verizon users. Thinking about trying it because it does clearly say it will work on some 4.4.4 devices.

Not yet, they just recently added Moto G, supposedly they are currently working on Moto X 2014
There is support for first gen moto x but the website and the thread you directed me to makes no mention of the 2gen. moto x.
It says it MAY work on some 4.4.4 devices and to go ahead and try but I don't want to break anything. I'll let someone else be the guinea pig.

I just tried the app to see the error message. Answer is no..you have to at least be rooted for the app to have a chance. Right now there is no root method for this device :/

It doesn't work on 2014 X. The "some 4.4.4 devices" it worked on previously had root and lost it (that I can tell).

[Q] Ineligble to unlock bootloader?

Just picked up my Moto X 2014 on AT&T today and the motorola website won't get me my key. What's the deal?
Did you get the AT&T variant? You can't unlock the bootloader on it. You would have to get the Pure Edition from Motorola.

So there's no way to get a custom rom and root? Stuck with this bloatware? That's seriously disappointing.
There is root using Mofo. Check it out here http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/noob-guide-rooting-verizon-moto-x-2014-t3097375. It won't unlock the bootloader but will give root. It also doesn't disable write protection do you will lose any changes made to /system after a reboot. But it's all the carrier versions have right now.

[Root]How To Root Moto G 1st Gen

Hi Everyone I'm New In Xda Forums So Plz Forgive If Ask Anything Stupid,
I Have Motorola G 1st Gen xt1033 Asia retail Version, With Updated Android to Lollipop 5.0.2.
I've Been Trying for a year to root My Phone But I Cant root it I really need help, main thing is I can't unlock bootloader When I Use Fastboot OEM unlock It GivesbMe A Five Lines Code That I Copy and Paste To Official Motorola Website in which it has a button saying "can I unlock my device" but then the websites sends a msg "your device does not qualify to unlock bootloader" And that's it in stuck here ,I can't get the unlock code to unlock it so I also used kingroot ,frameroot, kingo root, iroot, rootmaster, and many more apps that says you can root without PC , but non of them worked , Plz I really want to root my phone.
Thanks And Sorry For My Bad English Skills
Your going to want to look in the Moto g 1st Gen forums. This Is for the 2014 version. It's just Moto g. Also you just unlock the bootloader then flash twrp. After that push super su to your internal storage and reboot into twrp. Then flash super su (with twrp) and your good to go

Hey I Saw A thread today, there is a tool for xt1033 to downgrade or update the bootloader. If I downgrade my bootloader or upgrade it. Maybe I'll be able to unlock the bootloader , am I right?
Sent from my XT1033 using XDA Forums
Idk I'm not a developer. More of a technology enthusiast. I wouldn't risk it. If it doesn't work your phone won't even boot into fastboot mode. It would become a paper weight. Unless you don't really care about losing your phone, then I'd go for it

Moto X XT1050

How can I find out about updates for an unlocked Moto X? Motorola said contact the carrier but why? It's not carrier branded. @sd_shadow can u explain?

Ok soo my phone hasn't got any updates past Android 4.4.2, all the other 1st gen Moto X's got 2 after that. Motorola keeps telling me to contact my carrier but there's a slight problem with that. Alltel was my carrier but they got bought out by at&t so I switched to h2o. My Moto X is carrier unlocked tho, how would that affect system updates?

No update has been push out for my version of the X tho. It makes no since why they tell me to contact my carrier, because mine doesn't, have a carrier logo on the back nor does one come up when you turn it on. The system version says something about acg. I looked at a chart on Motorola's website, under acg regional carriers it says 4.4.4 "coming soon" its really confusing

System version: 161.44.31.ghost_row.
