I had purchased a moto x, it unfortunately came with 4.4.2 so I could not do any sort of rooting. Camera stopped working and att ended up sending me another one. the phone came with 4.4 system version 140.44.5. so i am hoping I am able to root this one. I am just super confused by the number of threads, because of all the different versions. could someone please point me in the direction where i can unlock my device, and root it. thank you, appreciate all the help.

You are right @kj2112 . Anything help about my moto x i did found here.. Just question and get answer.. thanks
I know this is not the Q&A thread. Don't shoot me. But i figured this was a dev question. Does anybody think or have tried flashing the stock droid ultra ROM to the moto x since they are VERY SIMILAR phones? Is it possible? Can it be done? Has anybody tried? If not and I was to try it do you think I can flash stock moto x IMG files back to normal? Or will i fubar my bootloader. Running Moto x Dev edit Verizon. These are questions that have been running through my head. Just thought I might ask. And is anybody willing to help me look into it? Thank you for taking the time to read and reply.

Very similar is never close enough. Any ROM for a different phone will not work for a different device. Some exploit methods work on multiple devices but never Roms and kernals.

I only asked cause if cm11 pac-rom etc could do it maybe we could. Thanks for answering though. It was worth a shot. I just miss my droid ultra?
They are the same phone in almost every way and yes the builds are compatible, or at least the 4.2.2 and 4.4 builds were last year. When the leaked T-Mobile 4.4 build came out, I was running it perfect on my vzw moto x DE and at least one other person was running it on their droid ultra/maxx with no issues.
So your question for the devs was just answered by non devs. If you KNEW you were posting in the wrong thread, but wanted to make sure you got noticed please follow the rules next time. It's not like you didn't know this does not belong here.
Only try this if you have an unlocked boot loader. If you are locked then you are out of luck. Still recommend finding a build for your phone.

i posted here thinking maybe devs have already tried it and/or have a workaround for it. i'm not going to start a fight with you over the internet cause thats just petty.
Moved here as this does not belong in the Development Section, OP please read the Forum Rules on posting.
Ok I have a rooted verizon DE moto x. It just popped up to update to 4.4.4. I was wondering if anyone has just updated there's while rooted and how it went. I don't won't to let it update and soft brick my phone bc I'm not where I can do anything about it for a few days. I would think it would be ok seeing it's a DE unlocked boot loader. Any help is gr8 thanks

First, questions belong in Q&A - not General - please post to the correct forums.
Additionally, please search. You can find all the information you are requesting in any one of these threads of the same exact topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/4-4-2-4-4-4-vrzn-rooted-t2831132
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/vzw-ota-4-4-4-problem-t2834435
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/getting-error-updating-moto-x-dev-t2835144
Good Luck :good:
If you're on stock recovery, with no stock apps disabled by titanium, and without xposed installed (or at least disabled), it will work. I was stock rooted on my dev edition vzw with stock recovery and the ota installed no problem.
That said... Just wait until you get home. The update is very small stuff and isn't worth being phoneless for days over.
As mentioned above questions should be posted in Q&A not general and there is already threads which this question has been asked and answered. Please use them instead of creating a new thread. Thanks

Hey everyone,
First, yes I have searched for this
This thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/one-stop-shop-how-root-moto-x-confusion-t2826159 as well as everything else I find still tells me that there is currently no way to root a 4.4.4 Moto X
Doing some searching on google I found this method that claims to work and it was just published about a month ago...
http://www.igadgetsworld.com/moto-x...unning-on-android-4-4-4-step-by-step-process/
I am however a little weary about the fact that still nobody on here seems to have a solution? Is this a method that will work or is it just going to brick my phone?
Sorry I am not the most knowledgeable about this stuff but have you guys seen this?
Mine is a VZW version that I am trying to root.

Those on 444 with the old X & Ultras are waiting for jcase & others to come up with some way to get Dan Rosenberg's exploit to work. Jcase said so far root is needed.
So root alone or temporary root to unlock the boot are yet to be found.

Thanks for pointing me to that thread I will keep an eye on it. However I still don't fully understand what is this method I have linked to then?
In short this will not work? Sorry I feel a little ignorant asking these questions...
wrong place
Well I have to admit my mistake. I've just realized this was supposed to be posted in the original moto x section as opposed to the moto x 2014.
Can somebody please move this for me? Sorry for any confusion this may have caused...

The method you linked is enabled by an unlocked boot! All unlocked bootloaders have easy root.
I use Verizon and have a XT1096 that I unlocked the bootloader on and installed CM 13. I really miss the Moto specific features so I'm looking to go back to a Moto ROM. Are there any Moto Marshmallow ROMs that will run on my XT1096 and still connect to Verizon radios?
Thanks!

Awesome, thank you. This is exactly what I'm looking for, not sure how I missed it. Though it seems like it is still a bit too unstable for my liking. I will definitely be keeping an eye on the thread to see how it progresses and I'll probably make the jump soon.
Thanks!
