I couldn't get it to work. Bootloader is locked tight.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mrbracht:
Thank you for this. I kind of figured it would be. Damn Verizon
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] xxspark89xx:
I also tried - just for the hell of it - obtaining an unlock code from Motorola. As expected, I received the message that my bootloader is not authorized to be unlocked.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] onodontbescurred:
For what it's worth. This device passed all the tests in sunshine, but couldn't get root or temproot to actually unlock. If we could get temproot I think it may be the way in.

I have the Moto Z Force Idk if it's rootable
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] callmechewy:
If it doesn't look like this phone could be rooted, I'll just return it and get the newest Galaxy Note. Here's hoping.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
It really doesn't need to be rooted.... It's an awesome device
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rejectedjs:
You're going to return it for a .2" bigger GS7 Edge with a stylus...Not to mention Samsung phones are the LEAST rootable devices on Verizon.

Plus, it still seems like the Moto Z Force is still the most powerful android device available, especially with the Antutu score I got on it:
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
So nothing like Temproot, King root, or one click root doesn't work on this phone?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Metfanant:
Not yet
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
That. Sucks cuz this phone is bad a$$ and with root, even better... Off topic, is the stock camera good enough or are there better ones out there?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Metfanant:
Stock camera seems pretty good so far
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rejectedjs:
I got excited for no reason, I started playing around in settings and unlocked developer options and saw an option called OEM Unlock which apparently allows the bootloader to be unlocked. But according to some other threads, for Verizon devices it just doesn't work...lame. Maybe anyone could make some use of it just incase it does change ANYTHING? I dunno
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Metfanant:
No, it does nothing at all and never will...it's going to take a developer like the Sunshine guys to crack the bootloader with an exploit
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
Oh no I wonder how long it will it take
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Metfanant:
In all honesty it's most likely the bootloader of this phone will never be unlocked..

But I have hope that it will
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
Well see, the phone really doesn't need it but it's always good to have it
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Ace2cool:
I highly doubt the overall most powerful phone on the market will go forever without an exploit of some sort. It's still a new device. Have patience.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] callmechewy:
The Note 4 was the most powerful phone on the market for months, but it never truly got rooted.

I'm hoping this one does, but there's no reason to expect it at this point.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bignazpwns:
Why root and a bootloader unlock would be nice it's really not needed. This is the first phone I can say that about. Thing is way faster then every other phone on the market. Went from a s7 edge and 6p to this and the x force is just all around smoother and faster. I would love root for add blocking it's not a deal breaker for me.

The root won't come from this just being fast. Moto mods will drive the root so people can do homebrew. So that needs to take off and it won't until this phone gets liberated from Verizon this fail. Just sit back and wait.

Lenovo did an amazing job on this phone.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] micmatt:
Would quadrooter exploits work on this phone? This phone is running the snapdragon chip set and has the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2016-2503, CVE-2016-2504 and CVE-2016-5204

Y'all should be able to check your phones as well using the quadrooter scanner app from play s. Maybe this method can be adapted to exploit this?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Ace2cool:
Ran the scanner. Got 2503, 2504, and 5340. Not sure what all that means. Always been either HTC oem unlock or nexus with the root toolkit. Never been involved in the "cracking" portion of the bootloader.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] brentsalinas714:
Lol note 7 is gonna be Fort Knox no root more than likely like 95% sure no root
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] callmechewy:
Well obviously. I'm already used to how their phones and OS work though, and I know what I'm paying for.

This phone was a gamble for me, and bought based purely on the specs. If there's not much chance of being able to play around with different android flavors, I might as well stick with the monster that I know with Samsung.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Metfanant:
But......TouchWiz......
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] callmechewy:
I hear you. It's not a great alternative.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
TouchWiz is not as bad as before
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bignazpwns:
I had a s7 edge and i can say for a fact. Deff not as smooth as a z force. Hell the z force is smoother then my 6p i had. Touchwiz is much better then the past but its still crap. I like how moto added some stuff but its not to overpowering.

Also the motos active display is way better.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
Yea I have both... I love the Moto Z... Very smooth
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] BladeRunner:
Are there actually stock flashable files for the Z Force?? Mine bricked trying to install the latest soak test build and it would be nice to be able to restore it someway.

[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
F**k Verizon... Why they gotta make it hard to unlock the bl?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] vanemburghj:
Is locked boot loader apply to all verzion phones? I want to make the jump from t-mobile to verizon, but with locked boot loader just can't do it. Of the phones verizon has, the force is the one i want. The wife has S7 edge, but all she does is complain about it, so not going with that. The note 7 has issues they will never overcome, and the who wants the iphone (outside of the brain dead)? My note 4 is still trucking along, and love the fact I can root it, so not going to give up till it dies...or someone figures out to unlock the BL.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] apedersonaf:
So if a locked bootloader is the issue with Verizon why do I have the option to OEM Unlock the bootloader in my developer settings menu? Unless I'm reading wrong wouldn't this allow us root access?

EDIT: I know an unlocked bootloader isn't the only thing to get root but it seems like this would bypass the lock on our bootloader's to allow us to start the process. I clicked the option to enable this and got a security warning. I'm not quite savy enough to figure out what to do but figured maybe someone out there that knows what they are doing could enable and start to tinker. Hope this leads to root I can only imagine a stock android build on this beast!
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] apedersonaf:
Nevermind guess I missed a page and this does nothing...
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PantsFullOfGuns:
Why are we so focused on unlocking the bootloader when we haven't even obtained getting root access? I understand that with the rooting method listed on the op's post that it is necessary to have a custom recovery in order to root but I have rooted my Verizon s4 without ever getting the bootloader unlocked, and was just grateful to at least have root. And to add I purchased the phone long after things like the loki exploit was ever out to unlock it.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
So should we try different programs?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PiousInquisitor:
With an unlocked bootloader you don't have to worry about the next update plugging the exploit that gained you root in the first place.

With an unlocked bootloader you can flash a custom recovery and make real backups. You can then make riskier changes to your phone and not be worried about a permanent brick.

With an unlocked bootloader you can flash a custom kernel.

There are other reasons but those are probably the most common ones.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PantsFullOfGuns:
I'm thinking put the phone into download mode then hooking it up to a pc running odin then trying to downgrade the moto z with a previous similar phone model of somewhat the same hardware specs as possible (not sure of the best candidate this is my 1st moto) then when its downgraded it will be susceptible to hopefully a few of the programs we have been using then in odin again flash the update, however the updated version that we flash back on might have to be modified by some savvy developers to not remove root. But this being said it sounds like a move that also might brick a few phones but fortune favors the bull.

I know this that is why I said I was just happy with having root, I have dodged 3 updates on my s4 because I would rather be downgraded than without root, and as I look at it, this is a step in the right direction to actually get development started for this phone rather than be one of the dozens of other new phone development forums that are abandoned and have simply given up.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
But isn't Odin only for Samsung devices?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PantsFullOfGuns:
Wow, you have blew my mind that its only for Samsung, well hopefully Odin leaves something to aspire to for future programs though I would be interested to see what happens if you just run the moto through it with some updated drivers for Motorola.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Lmax579:
I may be wrong I don't know, but from what I known, I never heard of another device using Odin other than Samsung
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] trav473:
Yes, Odin is Samsung only, Motorola uses RSD lite. You can't flash any software to any Motorola phone with a locked bootloader that does not have signed security keys. And almost every upgrade of software locks the phone to that version or newer, i.e.you can't even flash an older version that is signed.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PantsFullOfGuns:
It was similar with Samsung but I believe and exploit was found, it is only the matter of time.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] The Analog Kid:
Great. No Z Force Droid for me. Will wait for international version...

---------- Post added at 07:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 AM ----------

But you said it doesn't need to be rooted... Anyway, try Kingoroot or One Click. In my experience (not with this phone) If they fail, they just fail with no harm. However, it's just a matter of time for them to work...
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] lotddragon:
The international version is going to be GSM only, according to reports and won't support the VZW spectrum
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] The Analog Kid:
Yes, that's why I'm waiting. CDMA is not a must for me; bootloader unlocking certainly is... In fact, I'm rather more into Moto X Force right now
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] lotddragon:
I'm just going to wait for the newest Nexus, which will be changed to Pixel and be done with it.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] karendar:
The pixel's here... And I just bought a Z force! haha. F Pixel, too expensive, zero innovation, no micro SD... I'll keep the locked bootloader and stick with stock moto instead of paying that much for a 128GB 5.5" phone.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sydneygriffin62:
So no root is available for the Moto Z Force? Are there any tether options? Maybe tether ?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sydneygriffin62:
yes that's all good but here is what is not being said, most of us need even on a grandfathered unlimited plan we still need tether (native Tether) or a dam good rom or kernel that supports tether. I'm only guessing but i don't see how without root, any ideas???

[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] _sky.captain_:
You can't tether?

I might be misunderstanding what you're saying, but on Verizon, my Moto Z Force Droid has tether available right out of the box. If you are in the US, I thought there was a legal ruling that wireless providers could not prevent us from using tethering - since we bought the bandwidth, we can do what we want with it, including tethering.

That was one of my main reasons for having root in the past. Now that I can tether on the official OTA ROMs, and with this phone being as fast as it is, I'm actually OK without root.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] papampi:

instalation with twrp finish with no error but supersu says need binary
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] lotddragon:
Did you try installing the SuperSU.zip file from TWRP?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] darkcyber20:
I'm just curious...I'm not a dev, but do have a question. Everyone keeps saying the Moto Z Force is locked up tight. When you activate developer options, and enter those options, there is an option called "OEM unlocking (allow the bootloader to be unlocked"). Am I missing something here? Doesn't that allow the bootloader to be unlocked? If so, then why is it so difficult to root it? Again, honest question.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] chromedome00:
because you need a bootloader unlock code that is not available for most Verizon phones. The developer option is there for all phones, but clicking it doesn't finish the process. The GUI option is a safety check. Someone can't steal your phone, and just unlock bootloader and flash it - they must be able to get into developer options and turn that on. But it also means, someone can't revive a dead phone if the GUI option is off.

[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] WhiteRaven96:
Lies!

The Moto Z Force will go down as the best phone in history if its rootable. I miss extended power button menu / Kill app (back button long press) / improved audio & more. And need I mention that any Moto mods in a rooted phone would be epic?

Here's hoping we find a way, Ill brick this guy, which rarely happens with moto. I'm not switching phones.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PiousInquisitor:
Lol. No.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] WhiteRaven96:
Sure it's a stretch. But its the one phone that hasn't had any technical issues out the box, no mass recalls, and the most future forward design to date. What did you have in mind?
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PiousInquisitor:
No, I think it's the best phone out there. I've owned a lot too, including the Pixel. Which is what will be known as the greatest Android phone off all time... Till the next Google phone is released. Why? Because "Google".
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] WhiteRaven96:
Because Google? Oh come on. For everything Google has under their belt, they made a phone equivalent to an android version the iphone. They look like they were made by the same designer. Cellphones need to take a hint from car manufacturers and have a style of their own.

The Nexus models, were a good design. The 6 was the best (I had the 5 and had Bootloop problems) & the 6p. The 6p design was the design of the moto x, further proving that Moto had a great phone designer.

I admire Pixels interior design, not its outside or future forward vision. For that I guess we have to wait another year & $800 to see a better device.
[Moto Z Force ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] PiousInquisitor:
It doesn't matter what you and I think. It's what the media thinks. And the media loves what Google does regardless.

I have a moto z force and my carrier is straighttalk.

My phone ran out of battery while i was using it, and after I charged it, it's stuck on the boot screen. It just boot loops.

I am able to get into the bootloader screen and get to recovery mode. I need a way to pull of my pics, vids, and documents before I try doing a factory reset. Can this tool help me? if so, which step do i need to do?

I tried to learn how to use Android Debug Bridge to pull files off before i do a factory reset, but when i type "adb devices" into command prompt (actually it seems to be called Windows Powershell), the device won't connect. I can't find the right drivers to be able to attach my XT1650 to ADB.

Do I need to flash my stock rom in order to fix this soft brick? will i lose all my pics and vids if i do that?
