Hey all! I;m trying to decide on the n5 or the moto x, and I have a chance of getting a really good deal on a US cellular one.
But do you know if I can use it on a GSM network? Is it locked to US Cellular?
Thanks!
I've the same question..
HI,
Can someone please confirm whether or not the Motomaker version of the TMobile Moto X is carrier locked or not?
In other words will it work on AT&T out the box like the non-motomaker TMobile Moto X's did?
Also, does this have the correct bands to work on AT&T LTE?
Much appreciated
Its comes unlocked
I purchased the 2014 Moto X on Amazon for $.01 since it was a steal, and now I'm trying to unlock the SIM for when I travel overseas (military). By any chance, has anyone else had luck unlocking this version of the Moto X's SIM? I attempted to purchase a code from Unlock Unit and their attempt at retrieving one via AT&T's database was a failure. They gave me the choice to wait another 1-3 days and see if they can pull one from Motorola's database but I'm expecting that to not work as well. I've even called AT&T and explained that I make frequent travels overseas, but I was told that they couldn't do it. If anyone else has a solution then I'm open all ears. Thanks in advance for you guys/gals support!

I'm trying to help a friend unlock an at&t moto x to use on straighttalk. I have unlock two codes purchased from theunlockingcompany.com but neither will unlock the phone. one code matches the at&t supplied code from the person she bought off of on swappa(which I directed her there and thus I feel responsible). My obvious first question to her was if she activated the sim. She hasn't yet. I don't know if that has to be. This is my first trial at sim unlocking. If this is the case, then i'll get her to do that. I've tried using my home wifi and my hotspot via my moto x 2014. I thank you in advance.
Hi guys.
Could i use xt1093 for gsm networks. I have read about it that it has gsm in specs on (phonearena dot com/phones/Motorola-Moto-X-2014_id8897 - sorry cant post a link) but i saw that guys on ebay write something like 'Will work only in US' and similar things.
I started reading about it and found that moto x (2013) from us cellular has problems with gsm (it didnt support gsm at all - and this is correct because us cellular is cdma) but i havent found anything similar to moto x 2014. It looks like this phone will work with gsm networks in europe, isnt it?
P.s. I am a noob with wp htc hd7, so I dont know anything about locking and i would like to dive into android but first of all i need a Android device Thanks
Bump. Was also wondering the same thing. has anyone here used an XT1093 on GSM outside US or even on T-MO/AT&T?
I used to work at us cell. They have a hybrid network. CDMA for voice, however the SIM card does support gsm for their lte. However on the original moto x they SIM card domestically was locked and was only for data. It would work for gsm out of the country but not in. So no matter what you do would not work on AT&T or T-Mobile. I left in April though and am not sure if they did the same with the new moto x 2014 with all the new carrier laws coming into effect for 2015. Typically us cell paid less money for the phones so they only had the antenna frequencies pertinent to them. Unlike Verizon who loads their phones with like every antenna on the planet. Lol. Hope this helps.
Hey!
It honestly really does help. I live in Asia with 2100 band for UMTS. I think i might just gamble on one
unlocking xt1093
I own this phone. Paid for it outright. Unfortunately it is simlocked, and the unlock code US Cellular provided didn't work. Neither did the several unlock codes I've purchased online. If anyone has any suggestions, my phone is available for abuse.

When you say the code didn't work do you mean the code input you get when you put in a t-mobile or at&t sim? what message do you get after you input the code?
Sim unlock XT1093
Has anyone by any chance got the moto x 2nd gen (US Cellular or Sprint ) working on gsm internationally?
It says "SIM UNLOCK UNSUCCESSFUL". I've unlocked dozens of phones, using numerous methods, but this one is being difficult.
I have just bought the XT1093 and it doesnt work in Europe.
anybody knows if this is being able to breach/unlock???
please help urgently!

the same problem. I bought a different code, but all give me refund because they could not find the code ((
Please let me know if You will find solution.
there I find root metod, but not gsm unlock, maybe this will be helpful for You!
teamuscellular dot com Forum/topic/7567-how-to-root-moto-x-2014-bootloader-unlock-too/
i have already rooted and bootloader unlocked my moto, maybe some one will get lucky and find a exploit for this, most of moto x 2nd is no problem to unlock, i even search for some crack moto x 2nd to buy a mainboard but on ebay there is only a LCD / touch screen notting more
maybe is possible to do that same what with Photon Q 4lte ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929143 )
Good news!
I have called US Cellular they told me that If I update to android 5.0 they will unlock my device.
however I cannot update to android 5.0 since phone says I am most updated.
so I tried to follow youtube manuals and I figured the android 5.0 for out XT1093 isnt out there yet
and installation doesnt accpet XT1095 file update
Nice!! What you sed to them and with part of u.s. cellular you spoke? And why update to lollipop is needed ?.. I have lollipop but i flashed software for xt1095..
Maybe they in official update software put some unlocking line in sources code ..
Give us some more info about your phone conversation plesae
*bump
I have some idea what could help us to unlock xt1093 , regarding to this subject ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/guide-success-sim-unlock-sprint-xt1056-t2825155 ) its about unlocking moto x first gen.
user samwathegreat find solution in one of NV-items edit #8378 from 00 to 01 ( unlocked device from locked has this diffrent amount over that NV ) he campare nv-item and memory dump from this phones.
I do that same ( change this amount in moto x 2nd) but unfortunetly does not work for me , probably simlock request is in other NV value for moto x 2nd.
I have some idea, i have flashed system with software from XT1095 over my xt1093 , if someone can do a backup of NV dump with DFS CDMA tool from unlocked XT1095 we can check diffrences and find the unlock solution ( or even flash whole NV dump to our phone )
***
Im very sorry but i need to ask You @samwathegreat what you think about it ? is there any possiblity to do it ? your experience is probably the bigest. Once again sorry for disturbance , but i dont know better persone to ask.
kindly regards
Bump! Any update for this?
