Pure edition does not lose warranty when you unlock it's bootloader. If you plan to flash custom roms or root the system, you won't lose the warranty with the pure edition.

Requirements for flashing a custom ROM on a locked VzW Moto X

Hi, I an debating buying a consumer Moto X on Verizon.
My question is this:
Is it possible to flash a custom ROM with a locked Moto X?
If so, what is required/which ROMs are compatible?
I am familiar with safestrap (coming from the droid RAZR), as well as flashing ROMs in general.
Thanks!

Don't buy a consumer version , there's no safestrap ROMs , also gaining root on 4.4.2 may never happen. I suggest you buy a developer edition and unlock the bootloader.
Unlocking the DE will not void the warranty.

Unfortunately, that is not within my budget. Is it possible to downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2 and go from there?

No, you can't downgrade from 4.4.2 to any earlier firmware, try swapa for a slightly used one . if root and flashing ROMs and your budget won't allow you to pick up a DE , then maybe the moto x is not for you

Yes, you can. But first you have to root your Moto X (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MzKvXkq44o) then flash a Rom with 4.4.3 like this one.

There is a little more to it than just rooting. You will need to unlock your bootloader and install a custom recovery. Rooting has nothing to do with flashing Roms unless using safestrap which does not currently work on 4.4.2.

Just wait.
Flashing a rom not intended for your model X can result in issues/problems. Flashing a modified update which only flashes PARTS of a rom on your phone will give you miss matched files which will also cause issues.
It is safer to wait for the Update for your phone to be released.

[Q] Pure Edition's bootloader unlocked ?

Hello, I wish to know if the Pure Edition has an unlocked bootloader ? The Moto Voice and others Motorola features are they presents in the Pure Edition ? Someone know if in Europe the MotoMaker version is only a Pure Edition ?
No it doesn't have an unlocked bootloader, I will never buy a phone with a bootloader already unlocked when shipped, which is insecure.
It, however, does have an unlockable bootloader which you can manually unlock through Motorola website: https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth
Whatever default Moto X features should be included in all the variants. The Pure version for US will not have LTE bands support for Europe and you will only get 3G.
Yeah I mean unlockable sorry for the mistake. Thanks for your answer !

Eligible to unlock and root ?

EDIT sorry only confused myself I have the "pure " moto x I thought this was a special edition moto x with pure stock android instead of moto "pure" which means no bloatware from carriers and unlocked which mine is so I have the pure edition and it qualifies for unlockings
Mods can close this if you like
Hi just got my EU moto x 2014 (xt1092)and I'm going to unlock my bootloader but I only see it for for pure edition and only KitKat 4.4.4 I'm on 5.0 can someone point me in the right direction please?
I'm not a noob either lol I can use fastboot etc etc

If your device is XT1092 then it's NOT pure edition, it's retail.You can unlock your boot loader on Motorola website,but if your device is XT1092,your warranty will be void.
