Can anyone see any issues with flashing an ATT kitkat variant atop a Rogers device?
Thanks in advance!
Yes I can see an issue: You're having a rogers device. Never flash anything on your phone that isnt specifically made for it.
You can usually flash a custom rom no matter which carrier you have. But never use roms that are made for different devices/carriers.

I am using T-Mobile kitkat on my Rogers motox with unlocked bootloader. I don't have any issue so far, but keep in mind, you must understand the risk of flashing other carrier rom

Unlock the boot loader and flash the AT&T 4.4 rom, it will work just fine. It is possible you could lose band 7(2600mhz) LTE as it may not be enabled in the AT&T firmware. You can easily go back to Rogers firmware if you decide it isn't for you.
I'm using the AT&T 4.4 on a Rogers Moto X, using it with Koodo, works great!
Thanks a lot guys! I'll give it a shot.
at&t kitkat 4 on rogers works!

Same here flash the 4.4 kitkat on my rogers version of moto x using koodo and rogers sim card. both works with no issue. Of course once the rogers version comes out I will flash back again.
Want to clear the air and my curiosity, has anyone with a Rogers 1058 with a unlocked bootloader, rsdlite to TMO kitkat?

Yes, it works just fine. I have it running on my spare Moto X.
No provider name in the upper left. If you flash the entire bundle it will most likely disable band 7 LTE, I have no way to verify that right now though. For some reason I find the AT&T 4.4 works better and gives better battery life. It could just be my imagination though, or it may be because the modem file matches the hardware perfectly.

OK so you rsdlite the tmo retail version? I would rather not use the AT&T leak. I did flash a tmo flashable ROM and did receive LTE

Yes, I've done the full flash using the retail file with rsdlite. You will get LTE with that firmware, but it may only work on the AWS band. You would need to do some testing to see if it used Band 7 LTE (2600 mhz). I don't have a Rogers account so I can't check. I know the original 4.4 leak from AT&T had 2600 mhz disabled, so I figure other versions may as well.

Unlock your bootloader and then follow the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446515
You can use the dev edition/retail/tmobile edition firmware or even the AT&T 4.4 firmware. I recommend the dev edition though, no branding or bloatware at all.
I am using the dev edition firmware on my Rogers XT1058, using it with Koodo.

No specific instructions but you must have a unlocked boot loader. Here's a good thread in how to use rsdlite http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2446515 . You can use either the at&t or T-Mobile sbf firmware, the at&t firmware has more bloat than the T-Mobile version

Has anyone confirmed that flashing a Rogers phone with XT1060 (retail/dev/tmo) doesn't screw up the radio?

Thanks for everyones help thus far. I was able to flash the Dev edition without issue.
However now I'm getting a force close on my security settings. Any thoughts?

After installing cyanogenmod right after unlocking I get no sim message. Others are running cm no problem with their Verizon moto x. So idk what's wrong. Tried both the latest nightlies 8/16 8/19 same issue. It's no work. Came from mofo 5.1 so 5.0 BL
Any ideas?
The nightlies have issues, which is why they're nightlies, for me the wifi for the nightlies doesn't work. I had to install the Snapshot first, and do a data wipe.

There have been some people that have CM working on there xt1096s but others that don't
Most likely the people that have it working are using a verizon GSM chip. Just a guess though.

You may have to flash the verizon moto x radio and modem for 5.1 from mikeoswego's xt1096 thread and try clean flashing cm again

In addition to the above, you could try this http://buzzmobile.us/verizon-apn-settings-verizon-mms-settings-android-phones/. im currently not in a place where i can install roms so once i am able to, i will install nexus experience and try to get the network to work(although from a lot of these other comments, it doesnt seem likely to work) and give more feedback.

Yes I did install CM over the mofo 5.1. I tried flashing the 5.1 modem from mikeoswego's thread and that didn't work. I tried flashing a modem that was shared through the 5.1 CM 12.1 official thread and that didn't work as well. I tried updating TWRP to see if that would do anything but it didn't change anything. The result is still the same. I tried backing up the EFS in TWRP and then restoring that EFS backup when I had CM installed and that didn't work either. I've done a lot of googling and have come up with nothing else
did you try the apn thing i just suggested cause i heard you have to manually add the verizon apn

Oh yeah, my moto x has a sim card too but I'm pretty sure the phone still uses cdma from what i see in network carrier settings. I got the phone from verizon so i think all verizon moto x 2014 have 4g lte sim cards.
CDMA is default, but when CDMA does not work I think it falls back to GSM right?

No, Verizon does not use GSM at all (aside from whatever similarities there are between their LTE data and other vendors GSM type services.) When using voice, it will either be CDMA or VoLTE (on a capable device.)
This is a legacy issue due to their past acquisitions of so many old time analog networks that were then upgraded to CDMA back when that was the latest and greatest.

If it's "legacy", then why do they have lte gsm chips?

Because their voice traffic (except in VoLTE areas on enabled phones) is on CDMA while their LTE data traffic is a gsm variant. They've basically tacked the LTE data network onto their existing CDMA network. So, yes there is a sim for the LTE data part of their service but that doesn't change that they are still primarily CDMA for voice.
Ok so now that some people have unlocked the bootloaders im sure people have questions like which roms are safe and what recovery can we use that are safe for our beloved device , so can anyone direct me on where to go?
I installed twrp on my phone and flashed stock 6.0 xt1095 firmware (I don't need cdma, only gsm matters to me so I don't care).
Stock 6.0 is really smoother, faster and I believe that battery life is better either because of doze.
You can also flash cm 13 but it's not that stable right now.

CM13 nightly works just fine on my XT1096 (Google Fi Data SIM)
Running CM13 Nightly Builds on my xt1096 and data is working fine though it does says my signal is T-CDMA 64 instead of verizon.
Just be extra sure, when you say CM 12.1 or 13 is safe with the XT1096 you mean it's compatible with Verizon's CDMA network?
Everything is fine here , just had to change a few apn settings I have a straight talk sim inserted

Yes, if you flash a GSM rom such as the xt1095, it will work for GSM companies. But you will lose CDMA which means it won't work with verizon's service.

I'll second this, latest CM nightly has full CDMA LTE support. Been 3 or so hours haven't seen any major bugs, or anything that would be considered experience breaking.
Only thing your really lose is Moto Voice, as ambient display works basically the same as Active Display albeit without the slower co-processor.
i think the chop for flash light and twist for camera works better then moto tbh and no real bugs yet either but havent played with it much
I'd love a stock rooted 6.0 rom. I'm stock rooted on 5.1 right now and everything is working great. Anyone have an update on CM now that it's been a couple days? Has anyone attempted to add Xposed to 5.1?
I'm not that experienced with this but I have an xt1096 and unlocked the boot loader and flashed twrp on it then did a clean install of cyanpop 5.0(runs android 6.0.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3277786) it runs nicely in my opinion other than a couple bugs that need squashing
