I don't see it happening. The developer edition is the same price as the 32GB version, and even then you can get one for around 370 on Swappa. I mean I'm not saying it is impossible, but its unlikely unless some great developer winds up getting a Moto X on contract and decides to try.

This is why I am having my friend from China handle the transaction. Cut the BS and have a local do it. I'm not trying to get scammed and he will act as a Paypall middleman for me. I think he only checks facebook once a day (and is 13 or 14 hours ahead of me, so thats why this is taking time).
[Moto X Q&A] xXKebobXx:
Just thought I would let you all know that the service worked great. The price changed because he wanted to attract more people to it. If you need help or want a middleman to take care of the service let me know. When I get home I will post some pics.

I sent her an email! I didn't send her my imei yet, figuring she'll ask when she responds..right right?
[Moto X Q&A] hackercity:
You will send that when she sends you an email that includes her Google wallet info.

FYI... If you include your confirmation purchase number in the email she may reply sooner. I purchased the 1.99 on Friday afternoon. Sent her an email including my confirmation number from eBay and she responses rather quickly. Then I got the info to send her the 42 for the code. I received it this morning!!

She was in here earlier a few pages back. She us pretty prompt and very professional.
[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
That number is just the item number right? Or should I just include both to maybe get a quicker response?
[Moto X Q&A] hackercity:
Not just the item number but the confirmation number that you paid.

The more information the better.
[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:

[Moto X Q&A] hackercity:

[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Haha makes me VERY anxious!

So I'm rooted on 4.4 right now... I will just have to flash a stock 4.4 right? And that flashing will include the right recovery correct?
[Moto X Q&A] hackercity:
I was running Eclipse 3.2. Through Safestrap.

I reverted back to 4.2.2, unlocked, flashed eclipse 3.2 and then Kryptonite's kernal flasher up date to 4.4.2. (If you don't you will stay stuck at the unlock screen)

I don't know if that was the correct way to do it but it worked for me.

[Moto X Q&A] NWKENT:
Sir..when you run the Unlock process..the process will erase your device..and you will be on what ever OS you stated with..but NO Root..you then must flash TWRP ( this overwrites the stock recovery).. and then install SuperUser..Reboot..and you will then have Root..that was my crude explaination..bit more complicated than that..but that's the general process..BACKUP your precious files to another source before you start..

BTW..I have custom FXZ's that installs TWRP for you..if I don't have one posted for your device..PM..and I'll do what I can to get a custom one uploaded for you..

I suggest..NEVER OTA..to many things can go wrong..even the download could be corrupt..I always wait for the official FXZ which is usually with Motorola within a few weeks..but the great thing about unlocked..a bootlooped device is much easier to fix..

Btw..the 4.4.2 FXZ is available now..I have a custom TWRP version for your Moto X posted on my pages..go to Moto XDEV page to download if you wish..

[Moto X Q&A] byrdmang2:
Okay meow, I think I got it... Haha sorry for sounding like such a noob... I just wanna have my facts straight. The unlocking process will unlock (duh) and bring my phone to stock 4.4 (in my case). Then I can flash, NOT OTA, 4.4.2 via recovery (which I also flash), correctomundo?
[Moto X Q&A] johnfranckiv:
Sorry if I am misunderstanding anything.. but I have a stock unrooted vzw moto x with 4.4.2... Once I get my unlock code and unlock can I use one of your FXZ's from the Dev edition moto x and flash in fastboot mode to erase and apply TWRP?
[Moto X Q&A] GandalfTehGray:
I've got a code to test soon.
[Moto X Q&A] NWKENT:
Well Sir..you would flash my FXZ with RSDLite or adb..I prefer RSDLite because it's only a few clicks of the mouse..but an experienced adb user would / could flash the same FXZ..TWRP will be your new Recovery..the stock Recovery is overwritten by TWRP..the stock Recovery will not allow Root..this is why you'd need TWRP..my FXZ just takes the hassle out of flashing TWRP separately..certainly one can use a (stock) FXZ and then flash TWRP..Also to revert back to JB 4.2.2 one must use a modified FXZ..

BUT in your case..if you are already on 4.4.2 then you will just need to install TWRP manually.. But..I have found..if one is gonna stay on the OS when started the unlock process..its much easier to use my FXZ and flash..then you will have TWRP preinstalled..that's just me thow..

I usually don't like to post a long post in the thread..rather PM..but this may help others also..with insight..

As far as I know..the OS cannot be flash from Recovery.. Because Recovery is part of the flashing process..RSDLite or adb is the way..

Unlock boot loader with fastboot. Flash recovery. Go right into recovery after flash. Reboot. And get superuser however you want. After I rebooted I downloaded superuser, put it on SD and flashed in recovery. There's a good post that explains what you need. I'll find it .

[Moto X Q&A] NWKENT:
Yes..you certainly can..once your device is unlocked..then its the same as a DEV model..without the white cover and logo on the back..well..and a better price..lol

Or as I mentioned..you can use RSDLite..which to me, is an easier, faster method..with adb..one can pick/choose exactly which file to flash..but in most cases..all need flashed..unless your a Dev..more to it than that..but I want bore the thread more..

[Moto X Q&A] mschumacher69:
It is always recommended to go back to 100% stock by flashing a stock SBF before or after unlocking your bootloader if you had previously rooted with Pwn/Rock/Slap.

Unlocking the bootloader only erases the cache and userdata partitions but it does not modify the system partition, so the root and modifications that were done with Pwn/Rock/Slap will stay, that's why it's better to flash a stock SBF to return to 100% stock before installing TWRP and rooting with SuperSU.
[Moto X Q&A] NWKENT:
I agree with you 100%..My FXZ's (aka) SBF does exactly that..and installs TWRP..I had forgotten to mention your facts in a couple posts..

Can we talk drivers? I am in need of assistance. I'm preparing my computer and device (didn't have any of the tools or anything installed previous, just the Motorola device manager). So I downloaded and installed minimal adb and fastboot, my debugging is checked and I am able to enter adb commands like reboot bootloader. Then when my x boots to bootloader Windows attempts to and fails to install 'fastboot ghost s' drivers and I can't enter any commands on my computer, example reboot will just hang at waiting for device. Any advice for someone who only kind of know what they're doing?

Download and unzip this to your C:\ (main directory) not in a folder..

When you mention ghost..I'm assuming you have a Moto X..?

Reboot your computer to refresh the drivers..if you need RSDLite and Motorola Device Manager..install those which are included..And run from this folder..it will look like this >> c:\adb >> then type in >> adb >> then hit enter..this will prove out that adb functions..

OR..do it simply with RSDLite..

I probably have an FXZ for your device on my pages if you need..my FXZ will also flash TWRP in the same flash process..

[Moto X Q&A] droydr:
Does this Chinese guy's unlock code make it impossible for ATT/VZW to know that you've unlocked your bootloader on your retail version of the Moto X, thus not voiding your warranty?

If his code still voids your warranty, what's the point in buying it when you could just get a free unlock code from the Motorola site?
[Moto X Q&A] mschumacher69:
You cannot get one from the Motorola site, the VZW (non-dev)/ATT can't have their bootloader unlocked officially through moto...
[Moto X Q&A] droydr:
Gotcha. I thought Moto will still give you a free code for the 16GB retail versions except it will warn you that doing so will void your warranty. Whereas the codes for the DE models won't void your warranty.

So will ATT/VZW be able to tell if you've unlocked your retail version with a code from this Chinese guy? If so, I assume that voids your warranty?
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:
They will not know unless you send your phone in for repair or replacement. Since it is not done through official channels Moto and Verizon/AT&T don't know you have the unlock code. However, if they go to the bootloader screen they will see that the phone was unlocked. If you try to relock it there will be a status showing that the phone was unlocked at some point.
[Moto X Q&A] mschumacher69:
Nope... That's true for other carriers but not for VZW, ATT and RW.

They will be able to tell once they check it when you attempt to claim the warranty...

Also what is the recommended version of TWRP and supersu to use with the X1060,
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:

You can be on any rom to unlock. No need to flash anything.

This has been said many times. Thanks for repeating it!!

Also, needs repeating that...

Unlocking your bootloader will factory reset your phone, so backup your data first, and plan on re-installing all your apps, etc.

Once your bootloader is unlocked, your phone will be just like any other Dev Edition, Sprint, T-mobile or other X with an Unlocked bootloader, except that you got the code from a 3rd party. The same processes/proceedures/roms/etc can be used.

[Moto X Q&A] EvanVanVan:
A couple of questions, I've read about how to fix Unlocked Bootloader warning logo...but I'm guessing that flashing the stock logo.bin from the SBF file is what checks the bootloader. So I actually HAVE to use a custom logo.bin from the logo thread if I want it gone, the stock one will keep checking the bootloader?

I'm guessing the days of Moto Boot Services, changing my logo screen to the custom one I made on motomaker.com are over? I mean like when they changed my custom logo to the winter themed one in Decemeber. I realize clogo.bmp is for locked bootloaders, so if I want to use that clogo, I've got to convert it to a bin manually with the instructions in one of KidJoe's posts (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49179887&postcount=150)?

Staying sounds good, it's a solid piece that I think will survive a teenager much better. This thread is a mile long. Is there a cliff notes version of where to buy and then how to root? Searching the chinesesilk seller reveals no listings. Will future OTA updates effect this in any way?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
On the X, the boot logo is displayed via one of two different files. Clogo.bmp and Logo.bin.

When your device is in the original Bootloader Locked state, the Clogo.bmp is used. Its just a typical 1280x720 bmp file. Once the bootloader has been put in the UNLocked or RELocked state, the logo.bin is used. Its a file that contains 3 images (moto logo, unlocked warning, and battery 0-3% graphic) and is compressed such in a particular way.

If you have a custom Clogo.bmp, you should be able to back it up at any point, then use carock's script to convert it to a Logo.bin for use when your bootloader is unlocked.

At winter, I don't recall the logo changing, but the boot animation did. This happens even if your bootloader is unlocked. So for example THIS -> http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...-festive-wintry-boot-animation-to-the-moto-g/ still works on an unlocked bootloader.
