Longer story short... I bought what was supposed to be an XT1095 off of Amazon - one of the $300 deals (though this was black leather, 16gb). Amazon (and their sellers) had run out of the first batch when Moto first came out with the deal a couple of weeks back. They began sending out XT1092's and XT1097's, and stated the XT1095 for $300 wouldn't be available again for a couple of months. People got frustrated, Amazon put it on hold, then it suddenly came back up this week, including the 16gb black leather option for the same price.
When I got it I was suspicious. The IMEI checks I did returned results evident of AT&T's XT1097 rather than the pure XT1095. Without going into great detail, I believe now it's an AT&T XT1097 converted to Pure. It received all the updates out of the box (from 4.4.4 to 5.1), like a pure edition should.
We're on Cricket now, so if it has AT&T hardware, we're fine. But if we ever want to switch over to T-Mobile, I'm assuming that will be a problem for T-Mobile's LTE bands? Is the hardware between XT1097 and XT1095 different? Or are they just different at the software/baseband level - meaning what I'm holding should be precisely like having a pure edition XT1095 going forward?
It's not an AT&T xt1097. Those cannot be converted to xt1095 because their bootloader can't be unlocked.

Thanks for that. There are other variants of the XT1097 that are convertible though - so possibly it's one of those? I guess the main potential problem is band support between 1097 and 1095...

Supposedly the 1097 has 1 extra band than 1095. Other than that they are identical, so there will be no issues if it really is a 1097, it will work with tmobile with no problems.
In fastboot is your bootloader locked, unlocked, or relocked?
If it's locked, then it's a 1095 for sure! If it's unlocked or relocked it could have been converted. If you unlocked it... then we will never know, lol.

Sorry to disagree with you, but that means that your phone is locked, could be any model like 1097 or 1092 because there are retails of those models and they are receiving the update to 5.1 as fast as the pure edition. The only certain way to now what version you have is by checking the numbers that are printed next to the USB port (very tinny BTW) or download CPU-Z and check your system information. Regards

You are right. Here is what you have to do:
in bootloader mode just type: fastboot getvar all
and you will see the info of your hardware, for example, my phone is converted and here you can see that the original version is XT1097.
PS you dont need to unlock your device or root.

In settings on your phone does it say tmo in version like this photo I attached? If so it is 1095. That is the 1095 software, and since the bootloader is locked it is not converted. Tmo is tmobile by the way.

Yes that's what it says.
So the bottom line here is if it's been converted it can't say "Locked" b/c it has to be unlocked to be converted... so at best it would say "unlocked" or "re-locked" then - correct?

Correct, once you unlock it, it will never say "locked" again. Either unlocked or relocked.
So since it is "locked" it is 100% sure that it is 1095. Ignore the imei thing because that is from a 3rd party, not motorola, they made a mistake in the database, the phone is 1095.

Yes, dhackers version http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/MotoX/
The ability to bootloader unlock is set generally set by the provider and not the model number of the phone. In North America the AT&T XT1058 can't be bootloader unlocked but several other providers who do sell the XT1058 do allow the bootloader to be unlocked.
I haven't see any official information from Motorola regarding European Moto X's but it is possible they can't all be bootloader unlocked.

They ALL -come- locked. Even the Developer editions come locked from the factory. You must request the code from Motorola to unlock.
If you have issues, re-read the instructions, and TRY A DIFFERENT BROWSER. People have reported success after doing these two things:
1. Copy the "unlock data" from the command prompt/terminal into NOTEPAD, remove the spaces, and then copy the entire string from Notepad into the browser (on Moto's unlock website).
2. Use a different browser! I don't know how many posts I've seen where the user didn't have success on ABC browser, but it worked immediately when using XYZ browser.
Good Luck :good:

Do you have a copy of the the most recent version system.img (fxz) for the XT1097? That is what is required to begin the process.
Is 5.0 the most recent version for the XT1097? Idk.
There are likely less people who have the XT1097 b/c you had the Pure Edition available for GSM carriers. But the starting place is for someone to get the system.img (fxz) for the phone.
I found mine for the XT1060 on my computer where MDM stores the firmware

XT1097 root is a available since day one. This version is identical to 1095 and you don't need anything else because the boot loader is available to unlock. Depends the version but Mexican, Canadian, Brazilian and European are good to root. I think that only AT&T is hard locked.

No and no. The pure edition is only the XT1095 and is only for sale in the USA. although if you buy your phone directly from Motorola in other country like México, Brazil or Canada your phone is consider as well a "pure edition" BUT model XT1097 and you can unlock the bootloader or install all the things are designed for the 1095. The only differences between both models are the bands that supports. For example, here in Mexico the 1097 is for sale with Motorola, Nextel and Telcel and all three companies allow to unlock the bootloader, but in US the 1097 AT&T version is hard locked. I think that you should let us know what version are you planning to buy and where to see if is good for root and all other things. I have a post to convert any model to pure edition as well.
The XT1097 is the AT&T variant with the locked bootloader. The xt1095 is the PE.

Ok well then you need the latest version of the system.img (fxz) file for it to begin the process. It is possible that you could use the fxz for the pure edition, idk, but if the hardware is the same then yes. Most importantly, you need the system partitions to be the same size if you want to go that route.
Is there a reason you don't want to buy the pure edition?

I wouldn't - anyone who wants to root buys the pure edition. You can use your subsidized upgrade to flip an iPhone and then buy the PE with the profits when it goes on sales.
The only reason there is this much interest in the Verizon model is b/c there was no Verizon pure edition so we had no choice if we wanted a Moto X 2014.

Well like said before you need a copy of the system.img for your device. Nothing will happen until you find one. I posted this on the MoFo thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60440593&postcount=422
The starting point for all of this is the system.img from the 5.0 fxz for the XT1097. If you have Motorola Device Manager installed on your PC and used it to upgrade your device, it will be in C:\programdata\motorola\sue\firmwares.
If you can get me that file, I can try to use the processes in these posts to create a pre-rooted image for your device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60332412&postcount=22
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60389310&postcount=177
If no one used MDM to update to 5.0 or this file cannot be found for you device, I suggest when the 5.1 update rolls out that you NOT take the OTA. Disable the app MotorolaOTA if you can. Wait to see if those of us with the XT1096 who update to 5.1 are still able to get root using MoFo.
If so, make sure you have MDM installed on your PC and that it sees your device when you connect it. Then when the 5.1 OTA rolls out, do not take it. Instead use MDM to update. Then you will have the 5.1 system.img for the XT1097 on your PC.

There was no "T-Mobile version" at least not a T-Mobile Branded version.
There was a "GSM Unlocked (Ships with T-Mobile SIM)" version available via MotoMaker. Or you could use an XT1058 after sim unlocking it.
You need to look at the very FINE print on the back, at the bottom of the phone to see the model. OR if you have a Developer Edition, it will say in "big" letters on its back.

Thanks, I got the bootloader unlocked
So I think I'm finally going to need to get a new phone soon. But I can't afford anything high end ATM. So I'm thinking about gting a 64gb tubro that can be unlocked, but I'm wondering if there is any reason I should settle for 32gb and gt a moto maxx instead. I think I read U can't unlock relock and unlock again with the xt1254 but I dnt see needing to do that anyway. Anything else I should know about hacked turbo vs officially unlocked maxx?
1) Be best if you keep using model numbers like in your title, instead of names like "Turbo", "Moto Maxx". There's two Turbos (Droid Turbo XT1254, Moto Turbo XT1225), there's two Moto Maxx even (XT1250, XT1225). Using model numbers keeps it straight.
2) If you get an XT1254 64GB, you are looking at Amazon, eBay, Swappa? Be aware some people have sneakily locked their bootloaders back before selling. I don't know why. If I were buying, I would pay more money for an unlocked bootloader -- the hard work and cost has already been done. You will need to see proof of bootloader status. If the bootloader has been locked back, it's worthless for you.
Also, you would need to see proof the phone has not already been upgraded to the OTA update pushed out by Verizon in May -- SU4TL-49, unless the seller can show you the bootloader is indeed unlocked. A lot of people who took the OTA before unlocking their bootloaders are now selling them due to their screwup.
Sunshine bootloader unlock exploit ($25) only works with SU4TL-44 (Lollipop 5.1) . If the phone has not been upgraded to Lollipop 5.1 and is still on 4.4.4 Kitkat, you can update it to SU4TL-44 using a file in this forum. But you would have to be careful not to take OTA updating it to SU4TL-49.
3) An XT1250 (U.S. Moto Maxx) doesn't have any conditions like that, but comes in 32GB only.
K I gotcha. either way I want something new and I have no problem doing the work myself. I found one on the bay and it's on su4tl44, I'll have to have him show me the boot loader. What is it if it's relocked status code 3?

If its been relocked you can still reunlock it as well its just a little bit trickier and there is a chance of bricking your device if not done properly bur as long as you have a computer with fastboot adb installed you should be good. I have never reunlocked myself but have read and helped others in reunlocking there own its in the forum here somewhere. So no matter what as long as you can get that turbo on su4tl44 you should be set.

Then that's new information I haven't kept up with. Earlier some people re-locked for unknown reasons and they were told they were out of luck. It was a one-time only process.
Here's the thread you are talking about:

Seems iffy. Better to not have a re-locked bootloader in the first place.
Thus far everyone that has followed beaups unlock instructions it's worked for. I think the issue is it's not something as simple as adb boot loader unlock

I have a straight talk Moto g6 which is not bootloader unlockable according to the Motorola site for bootloader checking. My question is how do you know which firmware would be potentially compatible? Because I was thinking that if I found one close enough I could possibly "trick" my current firmware which is straight talk branded and possibly flash a new bootloader which might enable to achieve an unlock. If anyone has any knowledge on that or how to achieve it I would appreciate your input. Thank you for reading.

Curious to know your model number? Should be similar to Xt1926-7. Without being unlocked, you can't modify system partition so I believe you might be out of luck. I'd try the command to unlock just to see if you get lucky. It should simply fail with an error message if it doesn't work. It shouldn't brick the device. I do wonder if blankflash might be of use in this case but not sure. If you can also throw in a link to the specs of that specific model, it would help.

The model number is XT1925DL. Build number is OPS27.104-15-15. It is the 3GB ram and 32 GB internel storage. Thats all i could find out for this model. And this is what i got for the unlock command. I believe its the one you were referring to. Im not sure if it was successful because it said it was supposed to erase user data.

The model number is XT1925DL. Build number is OPS27.104-15-15. It is the 3GB ram and 32 GB internel storage. Thats all i could find out for this model. And this is what i got for the unlock command.

I believe it's asking for the unlock code. You have to get that from Motorola's website.

I believe you are correct. Unfortunately they wont give it to me because its says my device is not eligible to be bootloader unlocked. Wish there was another way to bootloader unlock it. Or maybe some other way to get the code. Although im pretty sure that isn't possible. Maybe there is a way maybe not. I will just have to do more research.
Not sure it matters but your command is wrong. Try this: fastboot oem get_unlock_data
Should look like this:
(bootloader) 0A40040192024205#4C4D3556313230
(bootloader) 30373731363031303332323239#BD00
(bootloader) 8A672BA4746C2CE02328A2AC0C39F95
(bootloader) 1A3E5#1F53280002000000000000000
(bootloader) 0000000
The command you are using is to unlock the bootloader not get the unlock code(my fault I wasn't clearer).

Even if you aren't on the list of eligible devices, you can still request it. Only ten percent of the unlockable phones are on that list. Get your unlock info and request an unlock key on Motorola's website anyway. It'll probably work

That's what I was thinking too based on the Moto site.

The e5 play isn't on the list and I unlocked both of the ones I had. Same with the e4 I believe. They only list the developer phones as readily unlockable. But most of them are unless blocked by the carrier. I believe T Mobile had theirs locked down.

To my knowledge Verizon is the only carrier that blocks it. Seems very un T-Mobile like to block it. Times change but when the LG G3 was released T-Mobile variant was the only one that could be unlocked for sure. Verizon was locked, AT&T was mixed results I believe, Sprint variant was locked I believe but who cares about sprint anyways [emoji14]

You're right. I'm thinking of cricket. And that's only what I've read in the forums. T Mobile is unlocked
I've just found out my bootloader is Verizon based. Which means that it's a no go for unlocking it. Unless someone else can think of a way or find an alternative route to generate an Motorola unique key. Which I'm pretty sure it can only be done by them. I may be wrong though.
