I've been trying for about an hour to get these blasted drivers working.

I'm stick with this right now http://i.imgur.com/yMmQ9dt.png?1

I can't get the port to use the NV writer.

USB debugging is disabled, diag port is enabled, Drivers installed from moto website, rebooted, uninstalled, rebooted, and still I can't get the port. Any ideas?

PS: My avatar is a cartoon of CDR Riker!
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Follow my instructions in Post#3 to FORCE the driver installation ;)

I predicted people would have issues with that, hence the [extremely] detailed instructions. (AND PICTURES) -- in fact a picture of EXACTLY what you linked...
[Moto X General] Rayz321:
You sir, are certainly on top of things.

So I got it working and right now there's no sim error when a H20(ATT MVNO) Sim is inserted.

Also, I have figured out how to add the H20 APN settings in the menu. (Basically I used an app called APNsBU (root) and I restored some APNs from a different phone. After that it let me add any APNs with any MNC without error.)

Right now when it searches for the H20 network it finds it, but cannot register. My sim doesn't have service right now so that may be the issue. But I doubt that because it should still be able to get signal even with no service.

I'm busy tomorrow but sometime this week I'll try to get a friend with a active nanosim to let me borrow it.

Note: I've attached the file I restored with APNsBU that let me change the APNs freely.

I know this all won't help you much since you don't have the phone but it's all I got.

For the past few days a pawn shop in my area has had a sprint moto x for only $99 plus tax (total $107).

I'd almost be tempted to get it and send it to you but I'm leaving for college in a few weeks and cash is too tight right now.

Is there anything else I can do to help?

Edit: I may take the phone to my local metropcs(t-mobile bought them) and ask them to try to get the phone to work since they'll have live nanosims and I know a few of the guys there are tech savvy.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
See the red above -- I'm not sure that is true. My friend owns an AT&T Moto X, and I set it up for him....also on H20 (they have GREAT plans).

It showed NO signal until the PORT completed. Once his old phone stopped working, we rebooted the phone, at which time it DID register service and actually showed signal bars. Prior to that, the signal indicator was blank....looked like an empty trapezoid.

Hmmm... you might try to convince some of the others to donate and raise the cash to send to me an XT1056 ($99 is a VERY fair price)....people haven't been very kind. My thread has gotten over 5,000 views, and I couldn't imagine how many have unlocked with my method already, but I've received a total of $50 for all my efforts :/

Given the current reluctance of almost everyone (excluding those who DID donate) to contribute to my work, I honestly don't know how much more of my time I can devote to any of this.... 9 out of 10 of those who PLEDGED bounties haven't made good on their promise. I'm somewhat irritated, to be totally honest with you. I completely understand that not everyone can support, hence the reason I made it freely available to everyone....but the fact that almost all of those who pledged haven't followed through....pretty discouraging. They don't even bother to hit the "THANKS" button to my posts (24 THANKS for 5000+ views?).

Maybe (hopefully) I'm just getting ahead of myself, and they just haven't had a chance yet....so we will see if anything changes. It HAS only been 5 days since I discovered and posted the SIM-CRACK...

Again, anyone else is more than welcome to continue the effort to extend this to U.S. users, but I -HAVE- to do things that actually pay the bills....I'm

SURE

everyone understands that. I really do appreciate your offer to help. Keep me apprised of any new discoveries you make, and I'll probably continue to work on this in some of my free time...I'll also check out the APNsBU app, when time permits.

unlocking

You are the man did the changes and loaded right up and locked onto the network that was the key.....
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Freakin' awesome! Thanks for being the tester, and for testing so quickly!

NOW, I would appreciate it if all the PLEDGERS would make good on their promise now!!!! Seriously.... ;)

Not only is the XT1056 SIM-CRACKED, but it is now unlocked for Domestic U.S. carriers as well!!!

[Q]: How much should I donate to you for all the time (weeks) you spent working on this?

[A]: Please donate what you feel it is worth to you. The XT1056 can be found far cheaper than any other Moto X Variant, and now that we can SIM-UNLOCK it, it will become much more popular. If I have saved you money, or added value to the phone you already own, I would appreciate being compensated accordingly. I realize that some are not able to donate, and I understand. Do what you can / what you feel is fair. I spent countless hours on this, and would appreciate being somewhat-compensated for my efforts. This, of course, is not a requirement, since I have posted the solution and made it freely available to everyone. Keep in mind that the China Taobao-seller was charging $80 for EACH unlock...and HIS sim-crack didn't even unlock for Domestic U.S users!!!

PayPal Donation address: samwathegreat@gmail.com

If you can't / won't donate, the LEAST you can do is hit the THANKS button to all my posts...
[Moto X General] ezeuba:
You never do quit do you? :) Congrats again... You totally 'pwned' the Sprint MOTO X...:good:

Next task(?): BL unlock for all MOTO X...
[Moto X General] reds28heem:
Great work dude. Nice find. People really should live up to their promise with their bounties offered, because the only way we would have been Sim unlocked for U.S was in 2015 when Sprint was going to start unlocking phones for U.S all U.S carriers. More than likely you would probably have to be a Sprint customer with a account to get it unlocked. And has in my case I brought my phone for the sole purpose of flashing to Page Plus without even know the phone even had a Sim slot. So I will definitely try to donate soon cause I know it wasn't easy and very time consuming. This also adds resell value to the Sprint models which know people will definitely will take advantage of now, so why not contribute a few dollars to the person that made it possible. It also might have helped with other Sprint phones that have a Sim slot that was stuck with only international Sim unlock only. Thanks a lot for all your again.

Now trying to decide do I stick with page plus or go back to straight talk.[emoji2]
[Moto X General] :
Awesome work!!!!!!! ?

I think the problem with some pledges is for 2 reasons. The pledge threads are closed...and if they missed the last post....the threads will be buried now in their favorites...and they may have no idea about this threads existence.

Also, some of them may have moved on to other devices....tho they REALLY should have withdrew their pledge in the thread.

I'd gather all the pledgers names and "@" mention them....or pm them directly. ;)

They made the pledges....didn't withdrawal them....so they should pay up. ?
[Moto X General] cellzealot:
Congrats guys! Really excellent work! Just a word in defense of myself regarding the NV Item 8322 on xt1056.

I don't have one of these myself so I had to rely on someone else who had one to check it for me. I only have an xt1053 and xt 1060 so I couldn't verify the values myself on xt1056.

The lesson learned is to never listen to anyone, even someone with experience like myself, and always double check and confirm for yourself.

Sorry to have been misinformed and delayed any progress as a result.

Congratulations once again!
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
Congratulations again to OP for brilliance and perseverance in discovering the full international and domestic SIM unlock!

On my Republic Wireless XT1049 after flashing latest Carbon ROM and GApps I performed the SIM unlock and now have full service with T-Mobile USA. I'm getting HSPA (in a refarmed area).

The only slight annoyance is I have a fake roaming indicator and fake no bars signal, with fake -120dB, but good phone reception and data throughput. I'm going to cross post in the Carbon ROM thread regarding this. With the LG G2 (LS980) the fix was in the build.prop, to change the carrier to lower case "spr".

Thanks again to OP for marvelous work. I've already donated, and I encourage anyone who finds this unlock of use to do so as well.
[Moto X General] anasananass:
so many thanks bro.. it unlocked my moto x to run with outside us carrier

but somehow my moto x cannot connect to the internet and cant get 3G :crying:

any idea whats wrong with that ??

i did exactly like your instruction
[Moto X General] cellzealot:
Another interesting note is that it appears that the NV Item 8378 is only set on firmware of SIM locked models.

It is unreadable on my XT1060 and XT1053, both of which come SIM unlocked from the factory.

There maybe a different NV Item that controls this behavior or another flag somewhere in the NV for this function.

It is probably well worth doing a full dump of the readable NV of all models available to isolate any other potentially valuable differences.
[Moto X General] martinz_a:
NO SIGNAL

Thank you for all your help really appreciate it. I am experiencing some issues. I unlocked the sprint moto x using your instructions and it worked. I can now access the contacts and messages on the sim. I can also see the sim toolkit for my carrier. BUT i have no signal bars.so i cant make calls or do anything on the phone. if i try to call it says mobile network not available. Please help as i dont know what to do. Attached is a screen shot.

My guess is that the radio is off.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
DId you go to Settings > More > Mobile Networks , and change it to GSM/UTMS ?
[Moto X General] :
well.. it was sim card.. what i think as it started working now. but before testing new sim card i did hundreds of other steps :P..

like i used cdma workshop to write nv items. then i downloaded DFS tools and wrote nv items.. but all the times nv items for ruim only was reverting back.

then i did following also.:

changed SPC code to 000000

there were other options under unlock codes in DFS tools like sim lock, user lock.. i reset and wrote them, then uncheck all of them and wrote to NV.

i also changed default mode to LTE_GSM from DFS.. and wrote.

disabled PRL

disabled user lock code 0000

and a long list.

but thing is it is now working even ruim-only value is not written :P and firmware is 4.4.4

and finally i want to say thank you.. you gave me SPC.. the main thing.. i was so stuck on that step.. thanks.. :)
[Moto X General] tigerbolt:
Glad it worked man, greetings and enjoy your phone :)
[Moto X General] mk1129:
Appreciate it! It's just annoying to get the Sprint Activation screen and have to skip it every time after I reboot my XT1049...
[Moto X General] Sultan339:
Sir I have also this reason and I am not understand these lines plz help me
[Moto X General] M4dis:
Dude I friggin love you! I gave away my moto x to my mom when i bought LG G4 (By the way I loved moto X more, even tho lg g4 is a great phone). But when it had android update to 4.4.4 it had sim card error. So night before Christmas I fixed the phone because of you all, who have helped in this topic. Thank you all and have the best of holidays!
[Moto X General] Durhill:
hi everyone, anybody could make it work in 4g LTE?

Thanks to all
[Moto X General] tigerbolt:
It dependes on the frecuency of your carrier; If it has the same frecuencies as sprint it will work, if not, you will have to accept 3g

[Moto X General] waqar747:
Guys my moto x was updated to 5.1 before I attempted to unlock the sim. I couldn't make any calls or send texts. Had sim error. Now it won't go back to 4.4.4 because of the new bootloader which doesn't allow downgrading. Can I flash any rom, even a custom 5.1 rom that will work or is sim unlock only done by the process in this thread.
[Moto X General] afox27:
Flash the system and radios and recovery. Unlock the sim then ota back to 5.1. ATM I have my Moto x 1st gen on 4.0 with. The 5.1 bootloader
[Moto X General] stanucc:
I'm in the same situation, my sprint moto x is on 5.1 with no network. If I flash only the radio, will this work?

[Moto X General] Yedite:
Hi buddies! this device is gonna be stuck on 4.4.4? The update screen is simple annoying and, after checking what 5.1 is offering, it's sad to see how we can't get the advantages on our phones. I'd appreciate is someone is willing to do something regarding this

Cheers

How to read / get MSL on lollipop ? i try find google but badly not found ,

if any one know how to please guide

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------

When itry with out SPC i get error

Writing NV-items from a file:

Unsuccessfully written NV-items:

08378 (0x20BA) - Access denied

Done.
[Moto X General] phaker:
Unable to get SPC/MSL code

[MENTION=2026715]ezeuba[/MENTION] [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION]

So..

This phone was working with any carrier until an update has been made (from 4.4.4 to 4.4.4)

I tried to redo the steps in the forum but I was unable to (re) get the SPC code.

Then I downgrade it to 4.4.2, the application is working, but the code is not coming any more (see the image below)

Also I tried with other apps to get the SPC code, and other forums, and other steps, but still, I'm unable to get it.

The questions are:

* Is there a method to re unlock my phone?

* (maybe a dumb question) If someone make a full backup on his/her phone, and I install it, will it unlock my phone?

Thanks!

Later Edit:

The phone is rooted

It has TWRP installed

Any help would be appreciated (with more than a thanks)

PS: I read about 40 pages of this thread, but no answer.

Later Later Edit:

I just had to go 40 pages more, to find the answer.

I followed this link to go to 4.4.4 (although it was 4.4.2, but no luck in pushing some nv files or get that cursed code) YouTUbe

I pushed the nv files (without SP code and stuff)

Changed the network mode (settings -> networks)

And voila. Phone unlocked.

Thanks dudes/gals!

Cheers from RO!
[Moto X General] Rose Autumn:
Hello

I wish to sim unlock my Sprint Motor X, first Gen but I also want the legitimate lollipop update it is telling me I can do. My phone is rooted with the boot loader unlocked from Motorola. I was just wondering how to unroot it, then I can take the update, then I want to do this. Will it work? Thank you in advance! (And I apologize for not knowing better if this is something easy. I just look at how they say to unroot and it gets confusing.)

SPC Utility displays a blank code but SPC calculator seems to work

I bought a phone from BestBuy and turns it is a TextNow version, with their own ROM and a Sprint SIM card. The steps would not work even though the ROM was the same, so I flashed the stock ROM from this link:

161.44.32.ghost_sprint.Sprint.en.US.odex.zip

from(add the dots): drive google com /file/d/0B3gPYUZ4nRLwZ1FVc0NBT0hoMTQ/view?pli=1

(since the other links are broken)

Leaving the reason why I bought this phone aside, I intend to unlock it to work on GSM.

When I install the SPC Reader / MSL utility, it says "SPC Succesfully read! To enable diag, dial ##DIAG# in the dialer. Enter when prompted". and the blank rectangle remains empty / blank.

I still tried entering ##DIAG# mode, when I select "Edit", if I place the code that I get from the MSL SPC calculator here:

whiterabbit org /android/

The phone reboots and the diag port changes its status and my PC recognizes it, so it seems like the SPC calculator works.

EDIT: I just pushed the nv-unlick files and unlock-domestic and it worked! The SPC code did not work when I tried to push the ruim file, but it was not necessary. I just went to settings and changed to GSM.

Thanks so much for all the hard work!!
[Moto X General] dasblick:
has this worked?

Hi, [MENTION=7041148]ameraze[/MENTION], did this work?

I have an SPC code that works with the DIAG password but is not accepted by the NV items reader. Also the SPC utility returns a blank square.

[Moto X General] sunehahameed:
Soo heyy,

I have a xt1056 too, running android 5.1. I recently got this on eBay and it was running jellybean then and it worked fine and then I updated it to lollypop and oops. Every time I switch my phone on, it tries to activate sprint for a very long time and it says SIM card error.

And I have gone through this whole thread and tried to do all things possible.

I, of course could't get my SPC code since I am running 5.1 ( I am not quite sure if to downgrade to 4.2 or not), but people here posted telling that it is possible to fiz the phone without SPC,

So I follow the mentioned steps, but as soooon as I write "nv-unlock.txt" it says

access denied

. If anybody could please help me out with this?

And even after that, I tried to write the other files and were successful, but it didn't fix my phone. :crying:
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
You need to flash 4.4 modem and unlocking process will be work.

But, when im using 5.1 rom after unlock i got calling problem. Switching phone speaker will result with a mute both speaker and mic.

[MENTION=1536775]dasblick[/MENTION] do you use 4.4 rom or 5.1?

Im using 5.1 and there is a problem with calling. Do you have this problem? Or solution for this problem?
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
file was not found on remote server !

MSL UTILITY .. ERROR :

IT SHOWING file was not found on remote server ! .. INSTEAD OF SHOWING SPC CODE !
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
you dont need spc code to unlock it.

just use 3 nv-unlock, nv-unlock2 and domestic unlock.

if the log said access denied, then you need to downgrade your modem to 4.4.
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
i have done :)
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
So what is going on?

Everything work properly? Switching earphone to loudspeaker while calling is work? Its muted on my device, if i switch to loudspeaker from earphone while calling.

So unlock is working on 5.1 modem? I cant make it work if modem 5.1 installed, it force me to flash 4.4.2 modem to make it work.
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
I checked again & sorry to say .. Speaker phone is not working while calling !

when switching from earphone to Speaker .. it muted !

When i was on 30.b7 bootloader (kitkat) ear phone was not working .. now i updated lollipop boot loader so speaker not working while calling !

got call & immediatly open speaker will work

but got call with earphone then switching speaker will not enable speaker !

i dont what to do .. but i m getting this error on AICP MM rom .. yesterday i flashed 5.1 aicp rom .. that was okay & both earphone & speaker were working at same time !
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
So, on aicp 5.1 rom, both earphone and speaker are working properly?

I've installed stock official 5.1. It behave the same way, speaker and earphone problem.

Maybe the problem is on Lolipop factory image, since maybe cm13or any other latest rom build base on moto x lolipop factory image. If aicp 5.1 work then maybe it using 4.4 image as it base to build the rom. That explain why both speaker and earphone are working properly.
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
earphone is working properly but getting speaker bug !

i think we just need a modem of lollpop with unlocked sim .. flashing srpint xt1056 lollipop modem made my sim lock

i had to return on 4.4 modem then i unlocked sim via nv item reader software !

i am hoping some developers here .. can help us !
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
Have you ever tried cm12.1. It is said almost bugless. Maybe everything work properly there?

I dont have the ROM and im gonna try it soon. Or can you try it and report it here?
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
cm12.1 rom & 5.1 AICP rom 08/03 build - i tried both & they have no bug .. no earphone bug nor speaker ..

i have backup of that rom & i m thinking to go back to LP ROM & wait until i get stable & bug free Marshmallow Rom ..

i was reading that soon CM13 official will be released so may be that would be solution !
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
Okay, im surely going back to LP and wait for more stable cm13. Thanks.??
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
Even i am thinking to go back most stable (SnapShot) of CM12 official.

but MM fever dont let me go from AICP MM .. just Surviving without speaker phone for calls !
[Moto X General] Fahadroid:
By the way .. did you find any solution ??

its irritating me now .. some time speaker not working / some time earphone ..

its to hard to receive call !
[Moto X General] riyosakura:
I've tried CM12.1 Snapshot and latest CM12.1. And the bad news is, it behave the same with CM13. Even though earphone is always working. But when earphone working, speaker is always not working. Im already tried it twice. Dont know, maybe it just the same with CM13.

Since we updated our bootloader to 30.BE I think this bug will stuck with us until latest modem is capable to be unlock. or someone figure it a workaround for our problem.

My friend said, flashing 4.4.4 stock firmware will resolve the problem. But I dont think i'll revert back to Kitkat.

I hope someone will figure it out what is the problem with our phone. :(

Yet to Unlock

Hi Team,

I am attempting to unlock the Moto X Sprint XT1056, the moment I am using the SPC Utility as mentioned in the 1st page of this thread, I get following message, can any one please help here :

Are there other ways to make the phone usable in India and for the purpose of making incoming and outgoing calls etc. I mean a typical android phone.

Kindly suggest in details
