CF root with ATT branded XT1097
Does anyone know if the new CF root method that came out today will work with ATT branded XT 1097? Since we are not able to unlock bootloader directly from Motorola?
Thanks!

Moto X BL discrepancy
I have a Mot X (2014) and after multiple attempts to unlock the BL, I'm stumped. It's a VZW and everytime I input the code string on Moto's site they inform me that the phone is ineligible for BL unlocking.

Do not think that VZW allows the BL unlock same with ATT.

What to use for Verizon xt1096? Is it safe to try both 95 and 97 and see what doesn't fail?
Root for Moto X 2014 XT1096
Does anyone know if there has been an update for rooting the xt1096? I know that the 1095s and the 1097s both have roots available for them but does the 1096? If so where would it be found?
In response to #8, Verizon doesn't let us unlock our bootloaders, and both of the methods (for the 1095 and 1097) require an unlocked bootloader. That means we will need another way to gain root. (Just incase you're wondering, I double checked that those methods won't work by trying to use them on my 1096. Both failed, thus resulting in nothing changing...)
Works on my brazilian xt1097?
if I have a XT1095 rooted on Lollipop, I will get updates? or a I need to reflash the stock boot.img?

rooted on 5.0.1 with cf root + stock recovery. would a factory reset through stock recory be a problem? would I loose root privileges in the process? thanks

You will still get updates, but when you try to flash the update it will fail due to modifications made to the system. If you modded the boot.IMG then you will need to reflash the stock boot.IMG. You will also need to flash the stock system.IMG since it was modified with root access. Once you are completely stock again you can take the update without any issues.
locked hell
I'm in the same boat. I paid full price for what I hoped would be an unlocked phone, but I still got a fully crap-wared phone for use with Verizon. Bootloader is locked, so I'm not sure where that leaves me. I bought this direct from Moto, so not sure how Verizon is still allowed to lock me down.
thank you!
Guys, I have a xt1097 brazilian version. I would like to know if this cf auto root works for me, I'm running android 5.0 with a locked bootloader. It's better unlock bootloader an then use the cf auto root? Or is it better to use cf auto root with the bootloader locked? Does this work with xt1097 running 5.0?
Thank you!
Bye!

Root without Unlocking
Hi I want to root my Moto X 2014 pure edition (off contract), without unlocking the bootloader. Is there a way or some tool to do it.
Also can i unroot my device if in the future
I have a Verizon Moto X 2014 (XT1096) on latest 5.1 update. I just want root. Nothing seems to hell give me root access. I've tried several root apps. (kingo root, kingroot, etc etc) it would be a dream if I could possibly unlock my bootloader. I do have OEM Unlocking enabled in developer options...but it seems to do nothing. Please help. Thank you.

4.4.4 and 5.0 are Mofo rootable. 5.1 this far isn't.
So I have a bit of a dilemma.
I want to root my Verizon Moto X (XT1060), but I can't find any tools that support it without unlocking my bootloader. Motorolla's Bootloader Unlock System doesn't give me a key, and Verizon doesn't allow unlocks (that I know of),
TL;DR
Is there any way to:
Bypass the restrictions and unlock my bootloader
or
Root my Moto X without unlocking the bootloader
Thank in advance for the help.

Hey.
First of all, you can unlock the bootloader through Motorola website.
You can't root this phone with locked BL.
You cab try kingroot , heard they had a progress but not sure if it works for this model, you can try.
Good luck.
