[Q] Motorola Droid Bootlader

OK guys so I just got my OG Droid in the mail the other day. I rooted it with SOC, installed my ROM Manager Premium,installed CWM Recovery, did a factory data reset,then installed the newest CyanogenMod 7.1. I have been searching the threads and doing homework and I know the Motorola Milestone bootloader is still locked but is the Droid bootloader still locked? I just wanted to ask the question since I could not find a specific thread about this(hence me starting a new one). Can the Droid bootloader be unlocked? I'm also looking to update my radio and PRL. I have the newest SDK, I have QPST, QXDM, and CDMA Workshop on my computer so I know how to change the PRL already but would like some more insight into this from somebody more experienced with the OG Droid than myself. Any help from anybody is GREATLY appreciated! I may have posted in a wrong place but I could not find a specific thread about the "Droid Bootlader" Thanks in advance!

Yes, the bootloader is unlocked. We wouldn't have proper CyanogenMod support if it wasn't. What do you specifically need to know about flashing?

You can flash a different ROM without the bootloader being unlocked just to let you know but if you have any info on how to unlock the bootloader for S-OFF I would greatly appreciate it!

T-Mode, AKA "Diagnostic Mode" for flashing the radio - hold T while powering on your Droid.
I don't claim to be an expert, or even knowledgeable - this just looked obvious to me.

I have read that thread and I do appreciate your help but I'm looking for how to unlock the bootloader for S-OFF. I had S-OFF on my older Sprint HTC Hero200. Once again,help from anybody is greatly appreciated!

D1 does not have unlocked bootloader
So I've been searching literally all day on how to unlock a Droid1 bootloader and have come to find out that the Droid1 bootloader is locked just as well along with the rest of the Droids in the Droid Line. This is very unfortunate but hopefully Motorola will unlock their bootloader's pretty soon and the rest of the information will take place in this thread.
Here is what I do know:
To access bootloader on Droid1: Hold D-Pad Up while you press the power button.
My bootloader version is 2C.7C
Thanks for help from anybody who participated in this!

When the D1 came out it was meant to be a direct competitor to the iphone of the time. One of its biggest selling points was it's "hackability"...but I do believe it's one of the only, if not the only phone in the "Droid" lineup that has come with a unlocked bootloader stock...some others have been unlocked rather quickly and some not at all.

Just randomly checking out this section and came across this thread. The Droid Charge also has an unlocked bootloader. Those are probably the only two phones in the Droid line to be unlocked. However, the LG Revolution also is unlocked.
As far as S-On/Off, I've only seen that on HTC phones. I'm no expert, so don't quote me on that.

no the first droid incredbile is unlocked too but the droid one was probably the last phone that motorola made that was unlocked

Motorola would sell alot more phones if they had left their bootloader unlocked and an option to turn blur on/off , xoom bootloader was unlocked im pretty sure but xoom 2 will probably have a locked bootloader and honeyblur

i think motorola and google should be the only ones to make an android phone... if any other maker wants an android phone then they have to use asop and have stick update polices and that each device gets upgraded for atleast 2 or three years to the newest asop code base.

That would be like having 5 Nexus phones a month.
I don't think all the manufacturers should ship with AOSP, but they should make it easy for people to put AOSP on it, as some people like Sense/Touchwiz etc, while some people don't.
And of course, they should definitely make AOSP updates available.
(Why would you want Motorola?! They've locked most of their bootloaders and haven't provided an option to unlock them.)

S-ON and S-OFF is only for HTC Devices

No bootloader unlock yet?

besides the chinese connection which may or may not be working , I dont need the spam nor do I need links having access to PP accounts . I guess my Moto X will continue to be a paperweight , My Note OG will continue to be my DD , since it has never failed me . Too bad Android is going the way of the proprietory scams (apple,windows ) and I dont blame the Devs like some people in here , , ya gotta figure if Microsoft, Google, Apple or HP ,Oracle see's what these guys are doing and says "I want that kid " , "yore hred kid , but you cant release anymore code to the public, trust me you'll be compensated well" , why wouldnt they take that offer ?
Just wish there was something else we could do ?

Get the Dev Edition

It's AT&T that refuses to allow Motorola to unlock their model ...

I've seen nothing but happy customers from the Chinese code seller...the phones he could unlock anyway.
So a bit of spam, or an unlocked bootloader..... Seems most go for the unlock.
As said, dev edition is your only other choice. Sell the one you have and you'll be most of the way to the DE cost.

I don't know of anyone on here who has gotten any spam using the PayPal method with the Chinese guy. If you don't have an unlockable version or a dev version, it will likely be the only possibility ever. Motorola have locked these things down tight.

Well, you could start by buying phones that actually suit your needs. Some versions of the X were bootloader-locked. This was known from the outset. So whose fault is it that you own a "paperweight"? It's not the developers, or Google, or Microsoft, or anyone else.
You could have bought a dev edition. You could have bought from a carrier who allowed unlocking. You could have skipped the X altogether... so, why?
I'd like it if Big Red offered more unlockable phones, but I go into any phone purchase with eyes wide open. I decided the Moto X suited my needs even bootloader-locked. So you won't hear any complaints from me: it's my own fault if I don't like it. I don't hear a lot of Ford F350 owners complaining about their gas mileage, and there aren't a lot of Prius drivers that think their car is a paperweight because it can't haul a boat.

I used the Chinese PayPal method and haven't received any spam what so ever, only a single email with my code. Would highly recommend that option to anyone.

wasnt referring to spam from the chinese guy and that would be the option Id take , as for the paperweight , should have stayed with stuff I know like Samsung and HTC anyway , theyve never let me down , there isnt some are some arent!

No disrespect intended.....but you didn't like the X three months ago even, why haven't you just sold it????
Just curious.

I used the chinese MM method. Sent the payment via paypal as instructed and received the code less than 24 hrs later.
Unlocked BL, rooted phone, and installed GravityBox today. Noticed literally no extra lag so far and the increase in functionality, customization, and my satisfaction of the phone has increased exponentially.
If you're worried about spam, can't you just make a temporary email account?

Semi off topic:
If I rooted my phone to 4.4.2. and I have a bootloader locked, doing a factory reset will entitle me to keep my root? Or will I lose it?
And what if I do a factory reset on my rooted moto x on 4.4.2 when my bootloader is unlocked. Will I be able to keep my root when doing factory reset? I am trying to get rid of this "com.motorola.process.system" because I've tried wiping cache and dalvik and safemode and date and time method doesn't work.

See my reply to this same question you asked in another thread. You're out-of-luck.
Please follow my instructions in the other thread. You'll have to re-flash the stock 4.4.2 rom, and you will NOT be getting root back without BL unlock.
Sorry...its posted all over this forum that you cannot take the 4.4.2 OTA - it patches the BL exploits we used.

Alright. Just bought the unlock bootloader service.

If you want a bootloader unlock for AT&T Moto X, you could just get the Rogers Moto X.
They are both XT1058 and the Rogers one is bootloader unlockable on the Motorola website. I unlocked 3 there myself.

locked BL no root?

New Samsung S6 Edge owner here (Verizon), Ive only had Motorola phones since about 2004 (and non-smartphone), so this is a new experience for me with the Samsung. With my RAZR HD MAXX you could have root without unlocking the bootloader, but this is weird that you cannot root the Samsung with a locked BL?
Looks like I am going to have to forget everything I know about Moto and Ill be learning some new things...

Rooting just allows you access to secure system partitions (system/app and data/app) that we are normally locked out of,,,a unlocked BL is different in that is gives you access to the whole system to include recovery. I am sure this phone will get root at some point. Unlocked BL now thats a different story all together.

Thanks for the reply. I read somewhere (still looking for it and will post link when I find it) that said this Verizon phone cannot be rooted because the BL is locked. Thats why I was questioning it. That information is very different from anything I know about Android. Ive had an OG Droid, Droid 3, and RAZR HD MAXX all rooted, and the HD unlocked BL.

Unless something has changed, you can root without unlocking the BL. There may be some confusion with tripping the Knox counter for Samsung pay but thats all I know.

Getting used VZW Moto-X - want root - What to look for?

Hi All,
I currently have an XT1053 on Lycamobile (T-Mobile MVNO). I rooted it when I got it, have a custom recovery, ROM, xposed framework, XPrivacy, titanium backup. It's been 1.5 years so I'm rusty on how I did it before.
I'd like to move to Verizon pre-paid so I'm looking to buy a used phone. I want to end up with the same capabilities - root, custom ROM, etc.
I'm thinking I should get a Dev edition Verizon Moto-X so that I can get the unlock code from Motorola. In order to reduce chances of issues/bricking, is there are particular version of Android the phone should already have? Anything else I should be looking for?
Thanks,
Mark

From what I have been able to find by looking at a bunch of threads, it looks like I need to look for a Developer phone with Android 4.4.2.
What else am I maybe missing?
Thanks,
Mark

For the Dev Edition it doesn't matter what version you're on, you can root no matter what.

The only reason you would need 4.4.2 for easy unlocking is if you were on a non-developer edition phone and were using Sunshine. Dev editions can be unlocked, flashed, and rooted quite easily. Non-developer editions though, you want to be on an earlier release of Android, although there is a root method for 4.4.4 now, so you may still be able to unlock the bootloader.

Unlocking the bootloader is needed to run a custom rom, custom recovery, etc. and to ensure the ability to root no matter what ROM is on your phone.
Stick with a Developer Edition XT11060 for Verizon. You can get the bootloader unlock code directly from Motorola, for free.
If you get a RETAIL or Moto Maker variant, so long as the phone was never updated to 4.4.4 or higher, you can use Sunshine to unlock its bootloader. BUT Sunshine relies on exploiting a vulnerability to unlock the bootloader. There has been some question on if the vulnerability will be patched in Lollipop and could that pose any issues for those who used Sunshine to unlock. Will it re-lock them or will the unlocked status survive, etc? I have not seen a definitive answer.
While there is a ROOT method for a certain 4.4.4 build for non-Dev Verizon XT1060, that wont allow you to flash a custom rom or recovery, and it doesn't turn off write protection so there are some limits.

Thanks Gents, very helpful.
Is there any downside to getting a Moto X Developer that is already rooted? I'd still be able to contact Motorola for the unlock if I needed it again, right?
Thanks,
Mark

Thanks for bringing this up OP. I have a Verizon Note 4 and quite frankly I'm tired of the size and it's the longest I've been without root. Not to mention the lag with the TouchWiz lollipop build is driving me crazy. I now want a smaller (sorry Nexus 6) bootloader unlocked rootable android phone. After getting a pre-paid moto g to play around with I'm digging the smaller size and the resolution is more than acceptable. The Moto G should be even better.
I initially looked at the 2014 X but Verizon never released a developer model. My only hesitation to the 2013 is Android M. Is that coming to the 2013 X? And do people here have experience buying refurbished 2013 developer Xs from ebay. Pretty cheap around $110 to $150.

To clarify - if I get phone that's already unlocked because the previous owner got the code from Motorola, would I be able to contact Motorola in the future for the unlock code if I needed to re-unlock the phone or do they only give that out once?

People often get SIM unlocked (aka carrier unlocked) confused with bootloader unlocked when someone just says "unlocked"
The Verizon XT1060, Developer Edition or Retail/Moto Maker are SIM Unlocked (aka carrier unlocked) out of the box due to FCC 700 C-Block rules.
All 2013 X's ship as bootloader locked. The ATT XT1058, Republic Wireless XT1049 and Verizon Retail/Moto Maker XT1060 editions can not get the bootloader unlock code from Moto. The rest, including the Developer Edition XT1060 for Verizon, CAN.
Once bootloader unlocked using the code from Moto, the phone will stay that way unless you re-lock it. However, keep in mind there are 3 states of the 2013 X bootloader Locked Status 0 (as it ships from factory), Unlocked Status 3 (after you unlock via the code), and LOCKED Status 2 (aka relocked). We as users can not toggle it back to Status 0. Because we can't get back to Status 0, there is no real reason to try and relock. The "bootloader unlocked" warning message shows when status is NOT 0. *IF* you buy a used XT1060 Dev Edition where the previous owner as re-locked the bootloader, you will need the code to unlock it. The codes are unique to each phone.
I have no experience requesting the bootloader unlock code from moto for a USED phone, so I can't be of any help answering that question.

I purchased a used xt1060 dev that the previous owner had relocked the bootloader....not sure why. I was able to get a unlock code from Motorola no problem.

How to find firmware Compatibility - Moto G6.

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.

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

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.
