1. You should be able to as mentioned in thread.

2. Its hardware restrictions, if you unlocked Sprint or Republic Moto XT1056 device, then it supports LTE only on 1900 MHz, while AT&T uses bands 2 (1900), 4 (1700), 5 (850) and 17 (700). Band 17 is AT&T's primary LTE band. Bands 2, 4 and 5 are used in areas where AT&T doesn't own any band .

So you won't be able to use LTE on AT&T.

flashing stock firmware on sprint

plzz developer tel me tht if i flash stock formware on sprint then this unlock will be locked after flashing stock firmware >>>?????m using custom recovery with cm 12 and i want to go back revert to stock recovery and firmware to get lollipop ota updates plzz reply me asap thanx
[Moto X General] afox27:
When u flash the phone it wipes it. That means it deletes everything an writes the files in the firmware you flashed that means it won't stay. So no you can't flash to sprint then flash back after the unlock. It overwrites the unlock
[Moto X General] Probaholic1:
I believe you can just flash the simunlock files after flashing back to stock

Maybe but it won't work for the us cellular version. Its sim locked in another part of the phone

[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Thanks. Here it is (attached)

I had a quick look at the .db files inside.... It lists mobile network codes for every provider I know of. I couldn't figure out if there was a blacklist, or how to decipher it. Anyone is welcome to look and advise. If someone finds a solution, I'll post it and give them credit.

[MENTION=4959296]ecs87[/MENTION] :

EDIT: Upon further consideration, I don't believe this is the key. If it were, we could simply flash another ROM, such as the XT1053 T-Mobile ROM, and we would gain domestic SIM-UNLOCK. (Due to the difference in the com.android.providers.telephony 'apps')

AFAIK, that's not possible, and its much deeper than that.
[Moto X General] ecs87:
As far as I know those MNC and MCC codes were the networks in the US, no? I didn't take a look at the zip yet as I've been sending these replies by phone lol. I'll be at my laptop tomorrow morning where I can pick apart the files some more.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Some yes, but many, no. They are from all over the world. I noticed several Brazilian MCCs in there, and some European as well (I think...)

I might've pointed to the wrong package. I recently switched to CM11 from stock L720 NAE stock software. It wasn't a entire list of providers but ONLY ATT T-Mobile and vodaphone.

Thanks for your help:good:, you are very kind. I Followed again all the steps from the post 2 again and again I don't have service, only appears the message "Emergency calls only". At this point I want to know if was necessary that the stock firmware don't erase modemst1/modemst2 partitions, because I used the "ghost_sprint-user-4.4.2-KXA20.16-1.32-37-release-keys-cid9.xml" without any modification or maybe I pass something in the procedure.

Please I need your help, all suggestions are welcome
[Moto X General] fastover:
moto x

mine still shows no signal but random things come threw here and there
[Moto X General] ecs87:
For the guys with no signal. Are you sure you're not on the blacklist?
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
OK, first, it is only important not to erase the modemst partitions after you complete the sim-crack. It doesn't hurt anything, it just removes the sim-crack and you have to repeat the procedure from the beginning to unlock it again.

Second, (assuming you are absolutely certain that you followed the steps correctly and completely) before I can even think about assisting you further, I need you to call your provider and:

1. Ask them which frequency bands they use. Keep in mind the xt1056 does not support some bands (at least one UMTS band) that the other X's do.

2. Give them your IMEI and ask them to check if it is on a blacklist.

And confirm with me that you are not in the USA.

Let me know and I may be able to help assist further.
[Moto X General] ensedese:
:good:Thank you so much for your answer. Yes, I'm not in USA, I'm in Lima- Peru, the carriers here are Claro, Movistar (Telefonica), Nextel and Viettel. The two first carriers use band 850 mhz in 3G, UTMS I think the problem is not there.

Well, to have clear all the procedure:

1. Use a stock firmware modified to don't erase the modems partitions (I suppose is only delete the 2 lines with partition="modemst1" and partition="modemst2" on xml) or it's necessary use the firmware uploaded by [MENTION=2026715]ezeuba[/MENTION] in the old thread.

2. follow the steps in post #2

3. End

I wait for your answer.

Thanks again for your kindness and patience with me.

:laugh:
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
I think you slightly misunderstood me. YOUR Step 1 is un-necessary. You can flash the regular XT1056 SBF with no problem, as long as do YOUR Step 2 (follow the steps in MY POST #2) -afterwards-

The SIM-CRACK persists (doesn't get removed), UNLESS you flash the regular XT1056 SBF (or erase modemst1/modemst2) ---AFTER--- you finish unlocking.

If you get unlocked, and LATER, flash the regular XT1056 SBF, you will be locked once again, and have to REPEAT Step 2.

So if you are SURE your IMEI is not blacklisted, just YOUR Step 2 (follow the steps in MY POST #2).

Try again, and let me know if it works this time. If not, I will try to help further.

Also, did you go to Settings, More, Mobile Networks and select GSM/UMTS, as stated in my instructions?
[Moto X General] ezeuba:
Need help...

I have two Republic Wireless MOTO X for unlocking. The procedure runs ok, but when I try to make calls the phone says I can't call out because the phone has not been activated on RW. Long story short, the RW config is still on the phone. So, how can I flash Sprint sbf on it, and will it clear the RW configs? I tried to use RSD Lite with Sprint 4.4.2 sbf but the flash fails. always at getvar command. Any help please?
[Moto X General] ensedese:

[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Sure! I can clear this up for you:

First, as stated in post # 1:

So you MUST unlock the bootloader first. You can't flash another carriers ROM (CID won't match) unless bootloader is unlocked. The Sprint XT1056 can be unlocked for free via Motorola's official unlock page, BUT Republic Wireless (and Verizon and AT&T) FORBIDS Motorola from giving out unlock codes for their phones. This means the only possibility of unlocking the BL is through the "china middleman". This guy is -selling- bootloader-unlock codes for these phones. He somehow has access to Motorola's database....we have NO IDEA how. It WILL cost you money to do this ($45 per phone).

Once unlocked, you can flash the XT1056 ROM to the phones, and they will essentially -become- XT1056s (instead of XT1049).

You must follow the return-to-stock thread HERE and follow the instructions.

Take special note of STEP 4 in the return-to-stock thread if you are using RSD Lite:

You must edit the XML file in the XT1056 SBF and REMOVE/DELETE the following line:

<step operation="getvar" var="max-download-size" />

So if you unlock the BL, then remove the above line from the XML file, you can flash the XT1056 ROM without issue.

Afterwards, the phone will be identical to the XT1056.
[Moto X General] ezeuba:
The problem now lies in the bootloader unlocking... From what I've read on this forum, it's slow to get a response from him. OK. I'll give it a shot. Thanks again.
[Moto X General] hoangps:

[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Never know! Use the NV tool to read JUST NVITEM 8378 and see if its 00.

Then you might (realizing you are doing it COMPLETELY AT YOUR OWN RISK), attempt to write 01 using the nv-unlock.txt file. If you do, let us know :)

If you read the value and it returns ANYTHING except 00, DO NOT attempt it.
[Moto X General] Rayz321:
Wow this is really awesome!

I read through the whole thread and as far as I can tell nobody has truly confirmed it working or not for US carriers?

I'll try it when I get home with H20 (ATT) and let you know how it works.

Also I have a few tricks for the MCC I read long ago if that ends up being the problem.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Thanks. Actually, it HAS been confirmed to NOT work with U.S. carriers:

I would be THRILLED if you could find a method to extend the SIM-CRACK to those of us in the US (and, of course, give you full credit if you do find a method).

ANy Success on Sprint moto E 2015 ???
[Moto X General] iBowToAndroid:
Does not have GSM
[Moto X General] Outcome:
A few questions for Straight Talk

1. If I want to ever change the CID back to sprint, how do I do that? I think I saw somewhere in here that it's just "sprint"? Is that right?

2. I had to downgrade the firmware using the XML edit method described and go back to 4.4.2 in order to get the SPC code. Can I now just flash any lollipop roms without losing the sim card unlock? I am getting really annoyed by the constant UPGRADE YOUR FIRMWARE message that the Sprint roms tells me with every reboot.

3. It also keeps asking me to activate through the Sprint service with each boot up. I have searched for info about how to disable this in your thread, and I tried the shell commands but they didn't work. Any ideas?

4. After finally getting Straight Talk to activate the card, everything seems to work, however I'm not seeing HSPA+ speeds like I do with other phones... I thought this should work with ATT HSPA+? Does it ever change the icon to anything other than 3G if so?

If you want to use a Sprint Moto E on a GSM network, such as in France, then, according to their website, you will need a prepaid one.

I have found this thread by [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] that will allow us to sim crack the Sprint phones. Thanks to him!

I want to buy this phone and you might have noticed that it is locked to Sprint.

I want to use it in India and my question is, since the phone doesn't come with a sim or a subscription, will I able to crack it using [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] method and insert an Indian sim and use it on Indian networks?

ie,

1. Does the phone need to be activated with a Sprint sim initiitally and then use the crack to unlock it?

or

2. I simply buy it and crack it using the sim crack method? (ie, no sprint sim; no activation on Sprint network)

Since I am not a US resident I am confused in this regard please guide me. :)
[Moto X General] iBowToAndroid:
What are you confused about? You're in the right place. All the info you need is in the OP
[Moto X General] bstevens23:
1. The phone shouldn't need to be activated at all. Making the crack work doesn't require the phone to be activated.

2. Sounds correct to me. The listing doesn't mention which version of Android the phone is on. I'd ask the seller what version it is. It has to be 4.4.2 or lower as it's near impossible to get the MSL on 4.4.4 without bricking your device.

I just did this with my Republic Wireless phone, which is essentially an even more restricted Sprint Moto X. I unlocked my bootloader last year and had the MSL already. A couple of days ago I did the SIM crack, restored to my carriers ROM and the phone works fine, after a radio reset (you won't need to do this as you don't care about Sprint service.)

Today, I flashed CM11 and tried using a T-Mobile SIM with my 1 day pass. Data and Cell work fine after changing the APN and using Radio Switcher (app) to change to GSM/LTE (auto) and Automatic radio band (this was probably only necessary for me because I reactivated something to get CDMA working again). Did the same with Cricket (ATT MVNO) and service is working correctly as well. I don't see why this would cause any problems with an Indian carrier unless they need your phone's IMEI/MEID to activate it. If you already have an active SIM card for that carrier, you should just be able to do the crack, then put the SIM in the phone, boot it up, change some Mobile Network settings and maybe use Radio Switcher to force the phone to switch to GSM/LTE, and then maybe reboot.

[MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] Not sure if I just got lucky, but I was able to revert to Republic without using the Revert file. Restoring my backup got WiFi calls/texts to work. After realizing I had lost cell functionality outside of WiFi I had a panic attack. After several failed attempts using Radio Switcher, I tried ##72786# and *#*#8647#*#*. I'm not sure which one did the trick, my phone wouldn't activate because I didn't have WiFi but when I got home and it connected to WiFi and I rebooted, BOOM, phone ran through a Cellular Activation screen and then the phone worked fine without WiFi.

I'm guessing ##72786# resets some radio settings and re-activates service upon reboot. Since I had tried it before being in a WiFi area I reset my phone's MIN and MDN to non-existent values... whoops.

I was able to unlock my x1056 before upgrading to 4.4.4 and it works great. If I do a factory reset on it, will I lose the unlock or will it stay unlocked?

[Moto X General] erikivy:
I know it's in poor taste to quote myself, but Sprint and Cricket are driving me nuts and I'm hoping someone here has had a similar issue. I found an appropriate 4.4.2 ROM and successfully unlocked my XT1056. However, the phone is still telling me there is a SIM card error when I try use use it on Cricket. Both Sprint and Cricket are saying the problem lies with the other company and that there is nothing more they can do. If it matters, I bought the phone directly from Motorola, not from Sprint or any other seller. Also, the line in question has been out of contract for months and the ESN is clear.

If ANYONE has any thoughts or guidance, I would very much appreciate it.

Thanks!
[Moto X General] afox27:

[Moto X General] erikivy:
Yes, I did. And it seemed to work as expected. I received all the expected confirmations during the process. I've been on the phone with Sprint, Cricket and Motorola countless times over the last several days and they ALL say the problem lies with one of the other companies. I don't know where else to turn, but if other people are successfully using the XT1056 on Cricket I know I should be able to as well. It's very frustrating. :(
