Please see -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/MotoX-Unlock1.htm as it does address that. Its a slightly updated version of what I posted HERE in the older thread about 3rd party Chinese site selling bootloader unlock codes.

But the short version is.. Yes, if you put stock recovery back on, depending on how much you mod your phone.

I already had sent money before everyone said 2014 only. But this morning, he mailed me a code anyways!!!! I just unlocked it. It worked!!!!!!!

I am going to let him know my date is November 2013 and it still worked :) :) :)

The date in fastboot is not the build date. I bought mine on launch day (Aug 20, 2013), and my date in fastboot also says November.

Edit: you can select barcodes in fastboot and the last barcode is the build date for your phone

[Moto X Q&A] trentonmc24:
How hard would it be to setup a program that continuously generates random codes in fastboot until it randomly generates the correct code? It seems like that may work, however with millions of possible combos may take days or weeks.... Anyone got any insight into this?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Assuming you could guess 1 key per second, it would take many, many, many CENTURIES ;)
[Moto X Q&A] tu3218:
Well it seems some late 2013 phones have worked. My is from Dec 2013, so wondering if it's worth a shot.
[Moto X Q&A] trentonmc24:
Do you know the exact odds of a correct guess? I'm not really good with math, but if it's a 20 digit code, and each digit can be either a number or uppercase letter, that's 35 possible combos per digit correct? So what would I have to do to calculate the number of possible outcomes?
[Moto X Q&A] superkeest:
35^20

or

7609583501588058567047119140625 combos.

if we assume for arguments sake they made 1 million phones that's a 1 in 7609583501588058567047119 chance of you guessing one actual code. since the codes bound to each phone the chances of you guessing yours is 1/7609583501588058567047119140625

This type of post is not helpful. Please, if you are going to post on this thread try to post something helpful, not degrading to those that don't have developer editions. We've been bombarded enough.

All unlocked X's are the same. There's nothing at all a Dev edition can do that any unlocked X can't do....except keep its warranty. That is it. ;)
[Moto X Q&A] underdog1799:
Well if you have read this thread like most of the people that have unlocked or are looking to unlock through this method have, you will notice that what you have said has been said all too often and is not helpful. I am glad you have a dev edition and that you can unlock it, but some of us don't have the extra $200 or more it would cost to purchase a dev edition and would appreciate some alternate (albeit cheaper) method of unlocking

Not paying for a dev edition... Ever... No matter how many times the cool kids keep telling me otherwise.

As for Towel Root, I did indeed change the 0 to a 1 without success of reaching root. I'm on 4.4.2. If anybody can direct me as to what I'm doing wrong I'd love to know. SuperSU can't seem to be able to grant any apps root access. It seems to get "close", but no dice.

[Moto X Q&A] :
It should show rooted without busy box. You have to run pie root just once. After that you can install busybox and root without ever using a PC.
[Moto X Q&A] Vivjen:
Try SuperUser instead of SuperSU...

Better yet someone give us a walk through for towel root.
[Moto X Q&A] Alex210:

Click "welcome to towelroot v3" 3 times and enter text.

It will show a text box with the values already entered, just change the last one.
[Moto X Q&A] crashtheface:
***EDIT***

lol wow thanks dude. So from what I have gathered; is that you run jcase pie root the first time; install busy box; then for re-rooting you can use towelroot with the corresponding mod string.

[this method works CONFIRMED]

Just want to confirm this not just for myself but others waiting for codes, etc.

btw thanks to everyone who has recently been keeping people up to date with middleman and temp root solutions.

[Moto X Q&A] crashtheface:
No just the IMEI, the reason a few of us are posting dates is to try to keep people updated as to what dates are currently being unlocked. Those with early to mid 2013 [September] are unable to get codes; a few LATE 2014[December] models have reported some success in this thread. Extremely recent [mid to late June 2014 models] are reporting that they are too new to unlock.

[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Based on the Middle Man's replies (shared by users in this thread) in the past, it would appear he gets a dump of the database about once a month or so. As such, I would consider waiingt at least three or 4 weeks between attempts.

Also keep in mind that if enough people who couldn't get codes on their first attempt take this approach, it could slow him down over all.

So you sent it as "Gift"? It is well documented here to not use the gift option. It is also documented that the first time the middleman offered his service, those who sent payment as "gift" did not get refunded when he stopped.

[Moto X Q&A] crashtheface:
You guys seriously need to read this thread before making the purchase.

Mid-Late May and all June 2014 models are too new to unlock; wait another few weeks.

2013 models from Late November through December have reported some success; however that rate may dwindle.

NEVER SEND PAYMENT AS A GIFT.

Have patience when submitting an order; It has taken some users upwards of 72 hours to receive a refund [Took myself about 80 hours]

This guy is busy, it seems to be a very small group providing this service for us, having patience will only help ease the process.

This information is repeated throughout the thread, almost on every page. If you are unsure about making the purchase even after reading this thread feel free to ask.

For a temporary root solution [in the event that your phone is either too new or too old for bootloader unlocking] Use Towel Root. Some users have been successful getting Xposed to work with hot reboots; busybox is confirmed working, as with Titanium Backup [which will help you to FREEZE the added bloatware from your service provider]

***EDIT***

If you are successful in receiving an unlock code please consider posting your build date.

Update to the curious.

I purchased the unlock code through the chinese website (new user, can't link it) on 6/30/14.

Put my IMEI and email in the comments on the sale, haven't anything back yet.

I did chat with him using the blue smile icon on the site asking about when he'd get to me and all I got was:

"no code Pause"

Which I assume means something along the lines of "no codes available, wait"

Will report back if he ever gets to me, if not I'm assuming I threw $46 into the void.

Better luck to you guys.

[Moto X Q&A] crashtheface:
Just wanted to bump this info for anyone who is new to the thread. Also wanted to add this tidbit

***HOW TO CHECK MFG DATE***

To better help confirm if your device is unlockable [ie your unlock code is in the recent database] You need to check your MFG Date.

You can do so by following these directions.

1. Power off your phone

2. Simultaneously hold POWER and VOLUME DOWN keys for about 5-10 seconds.

3. Upon release of said buttons you will be presented with the Fastboot screen.

4. Use your VOLUME DOWN button to Navigate to "BAR CODES"

5. Use VOLUME UP to select "BAR CODES"

6. Your MFG Date is the LAST bar code on the Bar Codes Screen.

7. You can also view your IMEI from this screen [bar codes are labelled accordingly]

8. Press any button to exit the "BAR CODES" screen

9. Navigate [using Volume Down] to "NORMAL REBOOT" to restart your phone normally"

Friendly reminder to update your transaction outcome in this thread [ie. "I received a code for my April 2014 device" or "My device was unable to be unlocked at this time, it is a late June 2014 build"] If you guys have any other questions or need help with temp unlocks feel free to ask.

That means you cannot obtain the unlock code thru the Motorola site, once you have the unlock code, then you go back to the Motorola unlock page and use the code..

I'm no longer keeping up with this thread..but I do believe that one or two users have posted the exact procedures (with links) in this thread..read back in this thread..

There is also an "official" Motorola page with a list of eligible device for unlock codes thru the Motorola procedures..obviously.. your device doesn't qualify..but..you can obtain the code for your device..IF the build date qualifies..
