It depends on which xt1058 it is. If it's the at&t variant, u cannot unlock the bootloader. If it's any other non-us carrier, u can unlock the bootloader...

For the Developer Editions Moto X, and some carrier editions (Like T-Mobile, Sprint and others), Motorola freely gives away the BootLoader Unlock codes when requested On Motorola's Web SIte. In the case of the Non-Developer Editions, it voids their warranty to request the code.
I'm not going to go into the reasons why, but Moto does NOT give out the bootloader unlock code for the Retail and Moto Maker X for Verizon, ATT and a few other carriers.
That is why you will see people ask what carrier.
One last note...
IF you get a 2013 X for ATT or Verizon, AND the phone is still on 4.4.2 or lower AND the bootloader is NOT 30.B7, you can use Sunshine to unlock the bootloader.
NOTE: once the phone has 4.4.2, 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 on it, you can NOT Safely downgrade it!!! And there is no way to downgrade the bootloader (even on Dev Edition models).
thanks i got the XT1058 ATT model but i am having bootloader BO.4 which is a good sign and i have android 4.4.2 so i can unlock with sunshine root. thanks for replying
Raj
you saved me form lots of regret my friend, i will keep cancelling updates until i can pay for sunshine. i have boot loader 30.b4 thanks a lot for your suggestion
Is there no other way to unlocked BL XT1058 ?
My previous phone is dead, but the data was backup via TitaniumBackup.
Without unlocked bl, i can not root... Without root, i can't restore my data via TitaniumBackup
*sigh* I guess i bought the wrong phone?

Correct. If you have an ATT XT1058, Sunshine was the only option to unlock the bootloader. And to use it, you needed to be on 4.4.2 or lower, and never had 4.4.4 or higher on your phone.
IF you have a Rogers Canada XT1058 or other non-ATT XT1058, you should be able to get your bootloader unlock code directly from Moto's web site.

My ATT XT1058 is on lollypop.
And i read its dangerous to downgrade my os.
Hmm... dead end for me, so far...
Hi guys i have the dev edition moto x. I rooted it and unlocked the bootlaoder, because i wanted to try out custom roms. i amtr now trying to put the phone back to stock. I followed the guide and i got the stock image back on the phone, but for some odd reason the bootloader wont get locked. I get sst lock failure in the command window. I need to send this phone back. any advice?
It's impossible to lock it again. If you have the pure edition you didn't lose your warranty anyway so don't worry.

You can relock your bootloader.

Always read and read some more before you take someone's word.

Actually that does NOT put it back to locked. There are 3 bootloader states:
Locked
Unlocked
Relocked
Once you unlock it, it is impossible to go back to locked. He can only change it to "relocked" which anyone can see that it has been unlocked before. Try searching the forums more and you will see what I mean.

Relocked would be re-(LOCKED)
hence it is locked. Meaning that you can only flash signed images. You are right in the fact that people can see that it has be unlocked before. But when its relocked the bootloader is still locked.

... For warranty purposes "relocked" does not help. With relocked they WILL know that he unlocked it.

For warranty purposes it does not matter when you have the pure edition. They have already said that its still covered under warranty.
In the first post he says he wants to lock it to send it back, but the point is that it does not matter and that they will know anyway.

Even if he never unlocked they would assume it has been unlocked anyway and if unlocking a Pure Edition would void the warranty (which it apparently doesn't) his warranty would already be void. When you put your ID string into the website to get the unlock code it very clearly tells you that once you click continue they update the device as unlocked in their records whether you actually unlock it or not because you asked them for the unlock code.
Well if he has dev edition moto x instead of pure edition then he probably needs to search OG moto x thread not the 2014 moto x
This is all irrelevant. Unlocking the bootloader on an XT1095 will not void the warranty per Motorola's website. Also per their website....requesting and have the unlock code for your device sent to you is the same as actually unlocking the device. In other words, they know what devices they sent out unlock codes for and as soon as they send that code they then assume that it was used and the device was unlocked. It does not matter if you decide not to use the code, if they sent it, then they consider it used on the device. They caution about that in the verbage that they want you to read before requesting the code. That of course does not apply to the Pure Edition (XT1095) since they consider that model a developers edition. So unless you have somehow damaged the device and it will no longer work properly, it really does not matter if the bootloader is unlocked or locked.
I just get my moto X 2014, when I try to unlock the bootloader it says your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking.
My CID is 0x001
On motorola forum they said that AT&T devices are not unlockable
Then I just don't understand why there are so many mod, flashable ZIP on XDA for ATT XT1097
It is unlockable, how to you flash a TWRP to flash them

Only the 1097 from AT&T cannot be unlocked. All the other 1097 models can be unlocked which is why there is mods, roms and twrp for those.
Sorry, but you can't unlock, flash twrp, nor use custom roms on the AT&T model.

OK. Thanks for the explaination. I just bought MoFo and hopefully it works
I received a 2014 Moto X xt1095 as an RMA replacement from Motorola for my old 2013 Moto X. It's the T-Mobile model, xt1095 which is supposed to be unlockable. For whatever reason there appears to be something funky I about the bootloader where despite an all zero CID, unlock token requests to the bootloader return "(bootloader) Could not get unlock data!"
I've been told that probably have to re-return this to Motorola, which would be a giant pain in the butt. Is there anything to either brute force the unlock code or root it without unlocking the bootloader?

You can try rooting without unlocking bootloader.

Well, sad News first, I think you won't be able to unlock the bootloader.
Now the good News, You can definatly try rooting your device without a bootloader unlocked. Try applications like Kingroot. Infact, as far as I know, you don't even Need a Computer(Desktop/Laptop) to root.
I was able to root my motoX2014 sucessfully without boot unlocked. Let us know if it works for you:fingers-crossed:.
I would call Motorola. An XT1095 should be unlockable right out of the box. The bad news is you'll probably have to swap it out. If they sent you a bad one, make them ship the new one to you first so you won't be without a phone.
Thanks to both of you. I'll look at king root, and even try bullying Motorola into getting me fixed up properly without leaving me to use my Moto g again. I appreciate the help and the morale boost.

If I buy the XT1095 model is it guaranteed that Motorola will allow me to unlock the bootloader?
I know how to check once I buy the phone, but I don't know if I should buy it. There is no developer version for the Moto X 2014 as far as I can tell.
P.S. I just learned the hard way that the XT1097 (ATT) bootloader cannot be unlocked. Motorola won't unlock it. Third party tools (Kingroot + Sunshine) don't work with the August firmware update, and the phone cannot be downgraded to older stock firmware without an unlocked bootloader (from what I can tell).
If no, is there comparable device I should buy?
I buy before 4 mounths a xt 1097 ftpm china shop and everything was ok.
I unlock bootloader and everything is ok until now.
I dont know something else.
I have xt1095 and just unlocked the bootloader 3 days ago. So yeah
