Install ROOT then the button will unlock.

Nothing you said makes any sense at all.
To the op, the toggle alone is useless. If you want to unlock your bootloader you have to connect the phone to a pc. Google how to unlock bootloader for Motorola devices. It's posted in numerous places on the forum too.

Can someone please verify if this information is correct?
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/87215/action/auth
I contacted their customer support and they said it is true (VZW unlockable via that site)
I don't necessarily trust their customer support and want to buy a moto x

Think you need the DE.
It was my understanding that the standard VZW X didn't have an unlockable bootloader, and only the Developer Edition X for Verizon was unlockable.
i.e. the Developer Edition X for Verizon ships with a locked boot loader, and you go to the moto site to unlock it. Once you get that code, the's phone warranty is void.
Yes, but notice how all of the other vzw devices there explicitly state "dev edition"
Is there anyone with a moto x on vzw that can just verify for certain?
Even the customer support agent says it's "correct" -- So I'd like to hear empirical evidence.
Oops, repost -- how do I delete...
I just tried my phone, and it said I can't unlock my phone.
Oh, and for that matter, I assume a developer edition should just be unlockable by doing fastboot oem unlock, just like the Nexus devices.

Unfortunately the X is not a Nexus... or like the Moto Xoom for that matter.. See -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sxgz7jxRMw which is someone going through the process of unlocking the bootloader on his X. It does require sending moto data from your phone as part of the process to get the unlock key.

No problem brother, or sister, not sure what you are.
It doesn't void the warranty until you actually unlock the phone, so no harm in trying. Plus it's a work phone and they don't do insurance, but will buy me a new phone I think. So no worries.

Yeah; I ended up ordering a Moto X and getting it this weekend. I tried it too and no go; I hope some day, Moto or VZW will reverse their policy and allow bootloader unlocks
Currently the motomaker version of the tmobile moto x doesn't allow bootloader unlocking.
Does anyone know if this is set to change in the future?

Have they specifically said its not allowed or have they just not added them to the unlockable database yet? I was told it can take some time for them to add them to the database. Also, the unlocking website had problems yesterday and wouldn't unlock any phones period.

The support people I talked to both said that they aren't supported. They didn't know when or if they would be supported. TMobile support was just clueless.

The Motorola website says its supported so I'd post on the official Motorola forum and ask for them to look into it.
I just got my motomaker T-Mobile device and I can't unlock the bootloader. That is the only reason I bought the t-mobile version. I think motorola wants us to be stuck with the stupid black and white device.
Ok I thought it was just me but after reading this thread I know it's not. I just got my motomaker tmobile moto x today and no dice on the bootloader unlock. Got on the phone with Motorola support and they are clueless when it comes to the bootloader. I don't get what the difference would be between a colored one and black/white one that would cause any sort of differentiation on the bootloaders.

They will likely be in two different categories so I'm thinking they just haven't got around to confirming that but I would like to find out before the end of my return window. Support does seem pretty clueless.
different model number?
Can anyone confirm the model number for the T-Mobile MotoMaker version and the Dev Edition version? I thought they were one and the same which is why I went with the MotoMaker version...
T-mobile before motomaker was XT1053 - same as dev edition - and had unlockable bootloader. Is it different now?
Reading the forums at the motorola website it appears the they need to enter each phone into the system manually. I hope it is only a matter of a few days and then I can unlock.

If you haven't done so already, go post on the Motorola forums.
I, for one, will be returning my T-Mobile Moto Maker if I can't unlock the bootloader by the time my return period is up.

Need help!!
My friend gave me an AT&T SIM locked Moto X. I tried to buy an unlock code at internet and did not work. Tried another online service and they provide me the same unlock code.
I think it is hardlocked and I am not going to be able to unlock it!
Do you guys have any possible idea to unlock it? Or do I have a useless phone forerver?
Thx
I unlocked mine in unlockunit (they never gave me the 50% back for posting ther youtuve video tho...)
It's so sad to have a Moto X in my hands and not being able to use it.
I think it is really hard locked. I don't know if it is worse to buy another unlock code. Two companies failed with me trying to unlock it. At least they gave the money back.

Why don't he ask ATT directly.

You can try a few more unlock places but there does seem to be the odd AT&T Moto X that nobody has an unlock code for. Other people have reported the same problem. You don't get too many tries to input the unlock code, even if you run out the phone can still be used on AT&T, but then it can never be unlocked.

Really? Didn't know about this. I have never had any problem unlocking phones.
I'm going to send an email to AT&T.
Thanks for replying.

Try the app from Google Play - "Unlock your Moto X", I got unlocked from AT&T within like 20 minutes for the 10 euro or so (everybody else asking 15-25)

that is the app by "unlockunit"
The app failed to charge me using paypal (dunno why), but i went to their site and all was dandy.
I have to say again tho, they say they give you 50% back if you make a youtuve video, which i did, and they never gave it back.

How did you enter the code? Have you put in the allien SIM or just typed in #073887*? And what happens after you enter it?
Does the phone work with AT&T SIM at all? If not - yes, it may be blocked by IMEI or something. In this case it is impossible to use it with any US carrier.
I put in the sim card of my provider, then it asked for the code, and it accepted the one provided by unlockunit.
I bought my Moto X contract free on the moto maker... i could have chosen Tmobile, but somehow chose ATT... There is no LTE here in Argentina, so it is the same, and i could have gotten an unlocked phone with unlockable bootloader... but i had to make just another mistake.
Unlock code from unlockunity didn't work.
It is definitely hardlocked!
I'm not gonna die, but this is still sad.

Try swiftunlock I just used their services and got my code after three others failed. I don't know if it works yet, but it should.

Are you taking about www.swiftunlocks.com or http://www.swiftunlock.com (without 's')?
On swiftunlock, I can't find a way to request an unlock code. On swiftunlocks, they charge $12.99.
I could give one last shot.
AT&T most likely won't unlock your phone because it's been subsidized. They now require you to wait until the 2 year contract is over which sucks.
I've just bought an unlockcode at swiftunlocks.
Starting to pray....

The code provided by Swiftunlocks was the same code provided by Unlock Unity. So, it didn't work!

can i ask you if you actived at&t sim before unlock?
I'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my X4 from Best Buy. I've enabled the OEM unlock option in dev options but the Moto unlock site says the device is not available for bootloader unlocking. It's on OPW28.2. I've tried turning the option off and on but it doesn't work. I'd love to finally get root on this
if Moto site is not giving you the code then you are out of luck. I would return to Best Buy and get a replacement, or contact Moto support.

turning the option on and off has nothing to do with the site generating the code or not.

I work in cell phone repairs and get asked quite a lot about this. It used to be that the lock was on the phone but now it's on the carriers server so it's pretty hard to bypass.
