ok so cleaning my house the other day i came across a old phone of mine the Moto X XT1093 Variant (US Cellular) so as i suspected i had unlocked the BL in the past and installed TWRP and i had the stock 5.1 rom and it was rooted, i guess at some point i also installed Xposed Framework...anyways...according to the US Cellular website, this phone is already sim unlocked...so i was thinking , ok cool i can pop a sim from some random prepaid CDMA carrier and it should work...well i flashed dirty unicorns 6.0 xt1095 rom on it and its stable, the US Cellular sim is still in there and its getting a data signal, obviosuly account is off, but then i started reading and i got worried...is it even possible to flash another rom on this phone and it work? like i mean this is a CDMA phone, but i read that all XT1095 is GSM, so is there some rom i can flash that will support some sorta CDMA prepaid? any help or advice here would be appreciated....

I use it with the At&t prepaid sim. I'll look and see if I have some of the files I used to lock on the cdma networks...

well the 1058 is the AT&T model so i would think you would beable to flash it but the big question is. is the device unlocked for use with claro or is it running different firmware.
have you tried putting in a sim card from a different carrier and see if it accepts it. if it does then it is just unlocked and i will walk you threw how to get to 4.4 and root access if you want it
its not unlocked i put in an att sim card and it ask me for the network unlock
does my boot loader has to be unlock even if i wanna put an official rom like say atts rom
thanks
Well im thinking on converthing this phone to XT1095 and use lollipop or use a custom rom with lollipop.
The question is, if i flash any other rom, will i be able to use on cdma still?
bump
As long as the ROM doesn't contain any modem files you'll be fine. I believe that most custom ROMs are only /system and some /data, which means they'll work fine.

Actually, you'll only be able to activate it on US Cellular, not just any CDMA carrier. Sprint doesn't carry the phone and Verizon won't allow you to use it on their network. US Cellular won't let you use it on any other network either, as evidenced by their inability/unwillingness to provide unlock codes.
Edit: in the US, that is. Globally you'd have to get the carrier to modify the phone for you, which may be possible but I don't know about that stuff.

I think you don't understand im already using this phone (xt1093) on another cdma carrier... i live in dominican republic and switched to tricom, sadly can only use 3G in cdma since 4G LTE is gsm.
Can you write some details how can downgrade from OTA updated system 5.1 to 5.0.2 ?

Flashed custom to my CDMA XT1093 and even after reflashing stock files, I have not gotten my data signal back. Three weeks now with no mobild data or multimedia messages

check it out. That guy got it working. Also, US Cellular isn't supported on XDA, hence why we have our own forum.
So i have a stock rom with a backup. When I try to install any roms I lose my cell carrier, phone service, data, all of it. This carrier does not use Sim cards or APN numbers. I don't know much about this stuff so how do I get the needed missing stuff (efs, Imei, etc) back onto the new Rom so the phone is useable?

Sorry but xt1093 is using CDMA. Most roms are based off xt1095 which does not have nor use CDMA but instead uses GSM. You can ask the person who made the rom to add CDMA support, but there is nothing that you can actually do to fix it, well unless you fix the rom yourself. GSM is for the sim cards, so if you change carriers and use a sim in your xt1093 that would work for the roms.

Can this be done anyone have the link? I have a ATT account but xt 1060 phone not unlocked 5.1 stock. Everything works except my data is being eaten up as the phone is on Global and LTE. Can i flash xt 1058 ATT firmware 5.1 for all to work right?
Short answer: No
Longer answer: No, you can't flash the AT&T firmware to the VZW model and expect it to work properly. As I told you in your other thread, you need an AT&T model if you want it to work properly on AT&T. At the very least, get the XT1053 as that will work better since it has more GSM support.
I have a N920P sprint note 5. It is unlocked and rooted....i want to know if i could install a att rom on it. Im tired of seeing that sprint splash screen and i cant get 4g on it
I have sm-n920p and flashed the darthstalker rom which has several options for device selection during the install. I installed the tmobile version with no issues besides my network not working, it even listed device info under status as sm-n920t. Mine is not network unlocked but is rooted. If yours is unlocked and rooted I wouldnt think youd have any issues as I did not installing a tmobile rom. Maybe try a rom that has several or a few device compatibility. May or may not be a issue but I would feel safer with a rom that supported a few different models rather then a rom that was specific to a device that's not mine.
I understand exactly what you mean. Hmm i may try this later on today.
It didn't work

Didn't work at all or what did you run into? The first bootup took awhile but worked for me. I was on the noble kernel before flashing in twrp and had oem unlock enabled in dev options. I did the sm-920t choice and worked. Here is official pagehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-note5/development/rom-darthstalker-note5-version-1-aroma-t3212091
The sprint note 5 has different radio hardware than the other note 5's so to get phone calls and data to work you need to run sprint roms. Thats just the difference between CDMA radio hardware and the GSM radio hardware. ***SIM UNLOCK HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CELL RADIO NOT WORKING ON A NON SPRINT ROM***You can use gsm service with a sim unlocked sprint note 5 as long as you are running a sprint rom. At&t has no root or roms for the note 5 so just stick to the sprint forum and you will be fine.
Right, my data did not work once I flashed the sm-n920t version but everything else seemed ok. I tried using a tmobile sim card and could not because my phone was is not uicc unlocked. He was saying his is unlocked and was wanting to flash a att rom which shouldnt be a problem from my experience unless 920p and 920t are compatible while the att version is not. I think the note 5 is capable of most networks gsm, hspa, cdma, lte, just need the right sim and the phone unlocked.
