Hey there,
I am really courios why can't we root xt1096 while it is on stock 5.1
That sounds wierd to me because this is my 4th android phone already and I rooted all the priors without any problem.
I understood there was mofo and kingroot working on 5.0 , what happend with the 5.1 update?
Also, is there someone trying to make root possible for 5.1 stock?
I would like to get some answers if you guys don't mind
Thanks in advance.

The vulnerability that was used to root it in 5.0 and 4.4.4 was fixed by motorola.

If you were that concerned about root, there are options (ie: Pure Edition) that will ALWAYS have root.

Yea, but at first I didn't know that I can't root my phone. It seems to me really obvious that we can root any android phone because it is open source...
Moreover, the pure version has bigger screen than the normal xt1096 and that's the reason I didn't take pure edition.

He means the pure 2014 xt1095. The 2014 pure has the same screen size. The pure 2015 has a bigger screen.

Oh.. well, I didn't know that.
Looks like I'm screwed up because I bought the phone only 2 months ago because Motorola promises upgrades and now they just abandoned the xt1096..
Does anybody know if there is a progress trying to achieve root for 5.1 stock xt1096?
First, sorry for the double comment. Hope it's fine...
Kingroot has updated and they say they can root 5.1
I tried but with no success. Well, it failed at 23% which maybe brings hope to xt1096 users because this is the first time it lets you try to root with the app.
We currently have 832 people waiting for a root strategy but we need more people to ask them so we can be more noticable to them.
Please guys with xt1096, use kingroot and then it will fail to you. Then, choose the option that put us in the queue.
Thanks guys.
Hope soon we can get root to our abandoned phone..

Im getting my new ATT 32GB Moto X on Monday and after flashing my Samsung Galaxy S3 into the ground I thought I would leave the Moto X running the stock ROM for a while but rooted.
My question is, in reading some of the threads it looks like I will have to re-root after every Kit Kat update pushed out from Motorola, is this the case? Is there a method that will add root privileges back after the phone reboots from the update? Lastly, any suggestion on what root procedure is working the best?

Can we assume you bought the consumer version ? If so, looks like your SOL. Root method only works up to 4.4.
If you bought the DE veraion ? Root is straight forward as unlocking your bootloader , flashing recovery

Yes I did purchase the consumer version so it does look like I am SOL. Thanks for the quick reply.

ATM but you never know jcase might just have something up Hus sleeve, if you are still on 4.4 you can still root with slapmymoto and pawnmymoto which might break yourmoto

Is the Moto XT1097 with the android version 5.1 able to he downgraded. Thanks for any kind of answers at all. Been looking at different sites and all kind of tutorials. Still haven't found any answer to my questions. Thanks in advanced.
Here is my riddle?
I got a moto XT1097 bought from at&T in America with the 5.1 android version. How do I root it? Is it worth to even downgrade to try and root it that way . I know for a fact the boot loader cannot be unlocked. OEM Is one that can not be unlocked. Thanks for any advice, help, anthing at all. Been wracking and researching away to root it and all of my roads lead to a headache.
The AT&T xt1097 cannot be unlocked. You can root with MOFO if an updated 5.1 image has been made for your device. Since your device cannot be unlocked, you cannot downgrade.

Thanks. I do not have the 5.1 image for my device at all. When I bought the phone it was updated on the spot. I know for sure right now these versions are not rootable. Guess I am going to have to wait or root. Thanks for the help.
Hey everyone, I'm sorry if this sounds stupid, but I'm very new to the whole rom-switching and phone-rooting world.
I have a Verizon Moto X (I believe it's XT1060) with stock everything. I am absolutely sick of waiting for Verizon to release the update to 5.1.1. So, I want to do it myself, but I still want it to be Motorola's version of Android. Can someone please give me a step by step guide on how to do so? Thanks!
Are you in 4.4.4? If so, your are SOL.

Is Verizon cdma? If it is, then I don't think there's another rom available that you can flash
It's here you should get ota

Hey does anyone have a one click root method for the moto x 2014 (XT1092)? Don't wanna manually root it coz I'd probably stuff something up, thanks.
Currently, there is no one click root method for moto x 2014, and as I can see, there won't be any.
The ONLY way for us to root is by unlocking the bootloader, installing twrp and root using supersu or something like that.
Kingroot brags about that they can root android 5.1 but when you try with our phone, you get failed/there is no strategy method available.
As far as I know, you have xt1092 so you are able to unlock your bootloader. I have verizon's xt1096 and I can't do that , and probably won't be at all.

Have you tried getting Motorola to unlock your xt1096? It seems there have been quite a few people successfully unlocking their carrier branded Moto X 2014. I can't comment on whether or not it is true since I have XT1095, but I'm just saying......

Well, I've done that already a year ago... Motorola made it available to unlock the xt1096 bootloader.
I moved to Galaxy s7 already so it's not relevant for me but thanks!

Edit:
OK sorry I was a noob. I unlocked bootloader and then I flashed TWRP.
So, I always been a root user with my former Nexus 4 and 5 and now that I have the Moto X 2014 I started search how to root but then I found that if I unlock my bootloader I'm gonna lose my warranty and there's no going back. Do you guys think that losing warranty is a big deal? I have almost 9 months left of warranty and I was wondering when you guys rooted your phones...

I rooted my moto X 2014 after a couple of months. First test and use the phone, see if there are no factory faults.
After that rooted. Rooting your Moto X 2014 makes it more phone! Think of Xposed, Adaware, Xprivacy, and now also substratum (layers).
Since a month of two i replaced my moto X 2014 for the Moto X Pure, rooted this one the same month. I can't without the benefits of rooting.
Good luck with you choice!

De developers are maby building at the moment with substratum.

Search for BrokenROM, is a great ROM.
Also you can use substratum on Stock instead.
