I'm betting people will be replacing their moto x's long before the boot loader ever gets cracked. Not trying to be negative, just realistic.

I'd let it go....sell the phones, get whatever....that can be unlocked.

That's the best thing to do if having a locked boot loader isn't what you want.

Does this Chinese guy still unlock the boatloaders... I have read about this.. ??? I want to use This RW moto X on Reliance CDMA India.. N so far I'm having problems rooting this handset because of IP mismatch for telnet connection error.. Guys need help I'm new to it.. ??

So far I have managed to change Min/mid/PRL & so far its in Reliance CDMA network on NV mode.. But some application is stopping me from connecting to network..it takes me to activation screen.. I have tried Ruim only mode but again some or one particular software is restricting handset to connect with network N move further... I need to root this handset n find or make a custom rom for making this handset work for either by NV or Ruim mode.. Help guys need thanks, for the information till date, Love xda ❤

No, the Chinese fellow is done.

You should be able to root as long as you are on 4.4 or 4.2.2.

Check the instructions on the ROMs that achieve this in dev section.

If you're already on 4.4.2, you're out of luck unfortunately.

No I'm still on 4.2.2 ? but not able to connect to telnet cos if IP mismatch... Tried 10times even tried fixing IP but dnt know Whr I'm goin wrong ??

Is there any chance to downgrade 4.4.2 back to 4.2.2 ?
[Moto X General] :
No, not without a very good possibility of bricking.
[Moto X General] glarepate:
Both your PC and the phone need to be on the same network (not the same as having the same address, only one device can have a specific address.) For instance if your PC has the address 192.168.44.12 and your phone has 92.168.44.13 then they are on the same Class C network. If the phone is 92.168.45.13 then they are on different networks because Class C networks only have 252 addresses (the last part of the xxx.xxx.xx.xx number). The "45" network and the "44" network would have to have a router between them in order for them to talk to each other but that isn't good enough for Cydia. It needs to have them both on the same network.

Do you know how to find the addresses of both the phone and the PC? If so, what is the address for each one?

I'm guessing that your PC is getting its address from a different place than your phone. The phone will get an address from your WiFi router. If your PC doesn't get its address from the same router then you will have to find a way to get them both onto the same network. It is also possible that your PC could be on a different network even if it is connected to the same router though. You may need to get someone who knows networking to set it up for you. But we can sure try to get it done without calling someone in to do it.
[Moto X General] LARBIFY:
Not sure if you know this but apparently RW's 2nd tier plan dosen't allow users to use data but this is controlled in the rom (if the people who told me this know what they are talking about) and if thats true I'm sure someone with root and the right know how could get around that but unlocking the bootloader and getting a custom rom would of course remove this thing blocking those people from getting data and then suddenly hey presto they have the tier 3 or 4 plan at the price of the tier 2 plan.

Now assuming all of that information is correct and someone found a way to unlock the bootloader with out RW's approval I'm assuming they would consider that exploiting their service which would let them stop your phone from using their service as said in their terms of service, also that being said at least one or two people unlocked their RW moto x with the Indochinese middleman and it seems like they haven't had anything happen to them.

Well anyways just a friendly heads up, not saying you should try to unlock it because I would love to use custom roms and be able to root (I'm on a tier 3 plan btw) but you might want to think it over or release it through something not associated to you if you manage to do it.
[Moto X General] Cyphir:
I am one of those rare few who have an unlocked bootloader. However, I have never built or disassembled a ROM. I do want to point out though that the portion that controls the mobile data is not tied to the ROM itself, but to the Republic Wireless App that is baked into the ROM and probably a company database.

Modifying your app in itself probably wouldn't work as they would most likely know that you are accessing the wrong type of data or unusually large amounts of data when it is being restricted, IE: being on the $10 plan but having full 3g, since the $10 grants access to 3g data for the OS and this app only.

Vsync Excessive Delay?

I'm curious if anyone is getting a particular error. I noticed that KitKat seemed to actually run slower/less smooth than JB. I checked logcat and found an insane amount of warnings for the following error:

W/qdhwcomposer( 216): Excessive delay reading vsync: took 63 ms

The warning is pretty much constant (with different time for each delay).

Does anyone else have this warning?

I was able to fix it by disabling vsync through the build.prop by setting the following

debug.sf.no_hw_vsync = 1

Make sure that the change sticks after a reboot.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
Ok, having a heck of a time with this

Details:

Republic wireless Moto X 4.2.2 (no OTAs), never been on anything but 4.2.2

RSD'ed back completely to stock

Rooted using Jcase Rockmymoto

All firewalls and AVs off

No AP isolation

ADB and fastboot both confirmed working

Tried two different PCs, one win8, the other win8.1

superSU works just fine outside this process, and i have confirmed im rooted with Root Checker

This is the best progress ive managed to get so far

It seems to process through, but never successfully goes to 0. Also, doesnt seem to clobber twice, not sure if thats necessary

I get a eu.chainfire.supersu force close somewhere in the middle of the process randomly sometimes (and sometimes not). Ive tried updating the su binary (which required a complete rsd back to stock and rerun of rockmymoto), ive tried running superuser from CWM rather than SuperSU, etc etc. Note that superSU works just fine outside this process, and i have confirmed im rooted with Root Checker

What version of SU, and SuperSU is everyone using that doesnt crash? And alternatively, has anyone had it get through the process, but still be 1?
[Moto X General] Rashed97:
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised. Republic's coding sucks.
[Moto X General] malcolmputer:
I think I would hunt down the WPnoMo dev and ask him. Both of my phones with just fine using the same method you did.

As far as superSu version, I think just whatever was in the market at the time of my post. Nothing exotic or anything.
[Moto X General] glarepate:
I'll start with the last item first. (-; This may make more sense once you see it, but for now just follow along, OK?

Yes, the first time I ran wpbegone it came through with wp still set to one. I just re-ran it and this time I watched the phone with the screen unlocked.

Turns out that during the wpbegone run a dialog box will come up and the OS will ask for permission to do something, I forget now what it was, and it recommends against doing it. I said OK to doing it. Subsequently the wpbegone process ran to completion, i.e., clobber (1) and clobber (2) executed, which they hadn't the first time, and I got lots of little green hash marks on my screen instead of red asterisks. And after that wp was set to zero.

So, watch your screen with it unlocked and click on OK or whatever it wants. It does take awhile for it to complete so be patient. But the positive indicators are as indicated above, not having it just stop after complaining about how cold it is in there. :p

My SuperSU is ver. 1.94

Next, but still in reverse: I saw SuperSU force close during the wpbegone scripting process too. At first I was mildly panicked. Then I realized that the script was probably shutting it down since it installs its own su suite of programs/tools as part of the process. At least it includes its own collection of su-tools including Superuser.apk, su and something called 99SuperSUDaemonwhich, based on the 99 in the name would appear to an init script. It looks like this:

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &

Stuff must be there for some reason ... :cyclops:

Stepping back once more --

If it doesn't clobber twice then there is a problem. The SafeStrap bootloader was so diferent from what I am used to that it threw me for a bit but I muddled through and with only one misstep, not watching the phone for a cue to approve a discommended action/installation, it did work for me. So I'm hoping that there isn't some step missing in your SS install process that is causing the WPNoMo issue.

Now, assault through that enemy position, soldier/marine! And report back here with his head in a basket! :highfive:
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
hrmm, ok. Well let me get back to a "stock" position again, ill start from scratch and RSDlite all over again. I was watching the screen, kept it alive the whole time, and didnt get any weird os prompts. I did get one supersu request for adb. granted it and never saw another popup.
[Moto X General] glarepate:
Sorry. Looks like my suggestions didn't really hit the mark.

There appears to be more than the normal level of variation in this process though. Kind of unusual in computer work.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
And the same "oddity" occurs on two differnet PCs, which makes me think its an issue on the phone, not on the pc. All the PC needs to do is push ADB and fastboot commands, and its successfully doing that, its just an interface.

Wish the dev of this wasnt so..... difficult. I dont get the need for the auth server, and hiding commands and stuff, unless maybe he's a Moto employee.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
.... do i have to wipe anything before or after RSDing? IE, is there anything that RSD doesnt wipe out?

This phone is "dirtier" for lack of a better word than the other one that worked, and i figured RSD would give me a completely clean slate, but i wonder if some sort of residuals are left over or something
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
going to try something new tonight.

gonna put adbd unsecure on the phone first

should ensure that adb commands from wpnomore.exe get executed properly with the right perms. I really wish this exe spit out a log someplace so i could see if it was getting errors and then trouble shoot those errors.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
on the other side of that... what fastboot/adb package is everyone running, the full one out of the SDK, or one of the many varying ones?

Although it seems it shouldnt matter with wpnomore.exe, as that seems to not rely on anything external at all and has the adb and fastboot capability inbuilt to the exe.

Broken 4.2.2 system image

Hi everyone. I have a rooted 4.2.2 that I was trying to restore to the factory 4.2.2 image. I downloaded the image from sbf.droid-developers.org and extracted (encountered a checksum error with system.img and stupidly ignored it). Anyway, long story short, my phone is temporarily bricked until I find a clean system.img from 4.2.2.

Does anyone have this? Ideally I'd like the whole Blur_Version.139.4.17.ghost_row.RepublicWireless.en.US but with a proper checksum. Thanks for your help!

So I unlocked via the Chinese middleman the 2nd time around and I flash paranoid android. It thought I was on sprint (idk what I expected). Is there a way to make it work with RW? besides flashing the stock rom I mean.
[Moto X General] jong31:
As far as I know, there is currently no custom ROM that will work with RW because of all the system level changes that allow us to do Wi-Fi calling and texting and whatnot. So if you want calling and texting functionality, you will need to restore to stock.
[Moto X General] LARBIFY:
not even regular calling and texting? is there a way to connect to their network at all is what I am asking
[Moto X General] The Mexinerd:
Nope
[Moto X General] bstevens23:
As far as I know, they've baked all of their software into the ROM and until someone can figure out how to duplicate that (unlikely) we're stuck. I'm currently waiting for my reply from the China man so I can unlock. Can't wait to get Xposed back.

What exactly do you want from PA? I know Xposed can do a lot these days but I'm not too familiar with PA anymore.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
as a headsup, anyone who hasnt already, get in one the second round of chinese middleman. Got my code within 12 hours and now i have an unlocked bootloader

[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
rashed had pulled the repub wireless secret sauce.
[Moto X General] LARBIFY:
What does this mean? is this person planing to make a rom?
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
For my RW Moto XT1049, I obtained the bootloader unlock code from the China middleman. It arrived in less than 12 hours. I used it to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP 2.7 recovery and unlocked/rooted RW 4.42 ROM (thanks to LARBIFY for kind and patient assistance).

My whole family is migrating to a T-Mobile USA postpaid family plan. I would like to try to keep my XT1049 to use with T-Mobile, with the understanding that I won't get LTE.

Any thoughts on how I might use a US GSM carrier with this unlocked device? Might it be as simple as using Radio Switcher with an activated T-Mobile SIM card, or alternatively flashing CM11 or a T-Mobile stock ROM, or editing carrier settings in build.prop? I don't mind experimenting but I would hate to brick this thing.
[Moto X General] jbrukardt:
Your repub wireless phone is a CDMA device. It wont work on GSM networks like tmobile.
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
My understanding is the radio bands are there for service on GSM carriers, except for LTE. Just need to be properly enabled/unlocked, whether by a different ROM, different carrier settings, or both... Is that not the case?
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
unlocked device? From what you typed, you bootloader unlocked it, but is it also SIM Unlocked?

I don't know enough about the XT1049 to know exactly which, if any, GSM frequencies it supports. I don't know what hardware or software limits their might be.

IF you go by Wikipedia entry for the X, it contains inaccuracies. For the XT1053, it says the Dev Edition is not SIM locked, but neither version of the XT1053 is. It mentions in the notes for the XT1049 that the GSM functions are disabled in software and sim locked but links to the FCC Documents for the XT1056 (Sprint X) rather than the XT1049 FCC docs.

I have a Verizon X (XT1060), I could tell you things about getting it to work on T-Mobile.
[Moto X General] bstevens23:
Coming from a Nexus 5 and HTC One I can tell you one thing we don't have that will make a Tmo SIM almost impossible to use right now: the inability to adjust mobile network settings.

I think our device has the capability to get GSM signal if we SIM unlocked and could get access to those settings to change the APN. But the Republic ROM is currently blocking that. Maybe the guy who made a stock 4.4.2 ROM for us has an idea of how to get to that info?
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
I have not taken any steps to specifically SIM unlock the device; I don't know if it is actually locked at all. Republic Wireless is a Sprint MVNO and AFAIK uses the same towers and frequencies for voice and data. So it is likely but not not guaranteed that the hardware will be very similar if not identical, with different firmware and provisioning by the carrier.

I would be very interested in any suggestions you might have in getting my XT1049 to work with T-Mobile USA.

Thanks in advance.

At least on the unlocked RW 4.4.2 ROM, I can get into some radio and APN settings using Radio Switcher and HiAPN from the Play Store. There are also probably dialer codes. The MSL is now readily available via http://xdaforums.com/moto...-code-t2681816
[Moto X General] androiddoglover6969:
Are we able to do this on a Mac? Or Windows only?
[Moto X General] androiddoglover6969:
Also on this step, how do I have a back up? What kind of back up are they talking about? Like contacts? Or the whole stock rom?

1. Download the 4.2.2 zip for your Moto X.

A. Go to Here. http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0

B. Download Android 4.2.2 Blur_Version.139.4.17.ghost_row.RepublicWireless.e n.US

C. Extract it.

D. Flash the files with fastboot. Flash them all. Including bootloader and recovery.

E. This will restore your phone to STOCK 4.2.2, hope you had backups.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Yes, Contacts (if you use google account this is not necessary), and any downloads or pictures, etc. that you want to keep. It will completely wipe your phone. It will be necessary to re-install any apps you have installed, re-sync your contacts, restore your pictures to device, etc.

If there isn't anything important on it, don't worry about backup...
[Moto X General] androiddoglover6969:
Also a quick question. I installed safestrap. And I booted into recovery. I now see a screen for Rom Slot -1-4 and Stock Rom.

Does this safestrap automatically create my stock rom copy? Or how do I create a copy of it for a backup just incase or do I use another program like rom manager to do that? Or I shouldn't worry about creating a stock rom backup/copy for 4.2.2. or should I wait until I root and get to 4.4.2 to do that backup ? Or both? So I have many questions in there can someone answer to all of them without confusing me?
[Moto X General] FrostyNipple:
If possible, could anyone make a tut video? I really don't want to brick my phone and I'm confused by all this =/
[Moto X General] BlakePHanson:
By now most Moto X users have received the 4.4.2 update, unless you have not been accepting it OTA (over the air). All RW and Moto Maker phones have been shipped with the update for the past 2 months. Check your version out first before proceeding because you cannot roll back to 4.2.2 for this method or you will brick your phone.

Any way to make it read CDMA RUIM sim for CDMA network ????

Sent from Pav$ HTC One by Tapatalk
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
No. The only method we have now is to flash it to a CDMA carrier with no sim.

This will ONLY work on a Republic Wireless model if you are able to unlock the bootloader (china middleman is only way), and flash the ENTIRE Sprint 4.4.2 SBF File FIRST. It will NOT work with the Republic Wireless firmware.

See the "Flash Sprint Moto X to PagePlus" thread for more details. You can't use a CDMA RUIM, and you cannot use a GSM SIM. Of course, none of this matters if you can't get BL unlocked to flash the SPRINT ROM.

Good Luck

xt1049 and TowelPieRoot

Hey guys,

Anyone try the method here?: http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/themes-apps/root-towelpieroot-motorola-devices-t2825059

Seems to have rooted successfully, but I can't remount /system as r/w, so xposed and most other useful root tools are fairly useless for the time being.

Any way to force remount of /system as r/w?
[Moto X General] brainwash1:
Only if you unlock your bootloader. Towelpie root set to reroot after reboot and xposed works for me.
[Moto X General] jc4gavejc:
Is your bootloader unlocked then? Why not just flash supersu?
[Moto X General] zrex:
Searched the Thread Couldn't Find It.

I know the first rule is to search, but I can't find details about already updating to the RW OTA 4.4.2. I have already updated to 4.4.2 and never rooted when I was on the 4.2.

I have been rooting for some time, but the Moto X on RW has me stumped as it seems like the most intensive root I have seen (compared to G1, Galaxy, or HTC Sensation).

Thanks everyone.
[Moto X General] :
See the "how do I root my Moto x" sticky in general.

If your bootloader is locked, at this time, you can pay the China middleman (see thread on that in general) and unlock it... If he has your code. Or towelpieroot is your only other option.

[Moto X General] jc4gavejc:
As I understand it, there's a new BL unlock for the Moto X, not sure if/when it will be released, but until then I guess your only option is to experiment with TowelPieRoot. A couple root apps work, but in my experience nothing can get r/w access to the /system partition.

I'm new here so please bear with me

So, I come from an exhibit II 4g that I rooted and have been using for 2 years now, a phone that I had custom fitted for me thanks to all the work you people from XDA put up.

Now, I bought a RW phone unlocked with the promo so I could use it here in Venezuela (the place where I'm from and currently live in) and, right now without anything my phone works just great with the gsm Provider I'm subscribed on, calls, data, text. But I want to root to be able to use the XPOSED framework and install gravity box, which, according to what I've read, will allow all the customization I had on my very very old exhibit 4g.

So, I was wondering if there was any other method that could allow me to root AND unlock the bootloader or do I have to use the method described here?

I don't know how this dual-boot thing works, I just want to save as much space as I can since my phone is just 16Gb...
