I found out that tere are idonee apps that do it but now they cost 35 $ and im highscooler so i dont have money.I heard of ssu and that crashed on my phone..There is also windows tool z3x samsug that dos it but i tried to find crack and everyone just scams and there is no tool to be found. i lost like 3h on that ...i dont know what to do next.I tried flashing custom rom to se if it would go away and no sucess again.Where i live there are not a lot of people that know this stuff and i asked in multiple stores if they could fix it but they didnt even understood what that was soo...

If you know how i can fix it it would mean a lot to me,thank you.

Motorola X4 Models :

-XT1900-01 USA Carrier Friendly / Project Fi Model

-XT1900-07 Amazon Alexa Model

I spoke to Motorola to find out model numbers and if the 01 Model is Bootloader Unlockable, and unfortunately it is not.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] blowingoff:
what? then how come is root only tested and working allegedly on xt1900-1? I'm getting so confused haha. I only know mine is xt1900-6.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] johnjingle:
The bootloader is unlockable on the XT1900-01
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] bamaredwingsfan:
I want to get this phone, but I'm afraid of getting the wrong phone for Verizon and getting stuck with a locked bootloader phone.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Amanpreetsingh:
Is there unlocking issue with regular version too ???
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] blowingoff:
no. that's motorola usual unlocking process, completely safe unless YOU do something wrong, of course.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Amanpreetsingh:
Do you think this device get good development as off now no twrp and unlocking bootloader is of no use.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] bombaglad:
twrp will be ready soon, then the fun will start ;)
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Amanpreetsingh:
Yes hope for the best.:)
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] DiDGR8:
From what we've been able to discern from testing is just the opposite of what the CS agent told you. The Amazon version is the one you can't unlock the bootloader (probably because they are afraid you can disable the lock screen ads that way). Nobody's paid Amazon yet to remove them (apparently you can pay the difference between the "with ads" version and the regular retail price if you want Amazon to remove them), so we don't know if that enables bootloader unlock or not.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
I'm pretty certain there is no Verizon version of the X4.

AFAIK, in the US there are three versions:

Amazon Prime Ads

Android One

Unlocked for all major carriers
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] bamaredwingsfan:
I thought the Google project fi would work on Verizon's network
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
I didn't mean to imply that any version of the X4 would not work on Verizon. My wife has the US Unlocked X4 and we use Verizon.

I mean to say that Verizon does not sell the X4. There is no Verizon branded X4, that I know of.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] gatomdl:
I have the Amazon version with ads and Alexa but my model# is :XT1900-1

Will I be able to unlock the bootloader?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] michael28056:
Follow the instructions on this website (to see if it can be unlocked) - You don't have to actually unlock the device.

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

Report back here and let us know. I have the XT1900-1 and I unlocked the bootloader.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] gatomdl:
I did what you said and sadly :( it said it is UNLOCKABLE.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
Why is that news saddening?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] forbidden8:
You didn't have to be sad bcoz of that. Will be sad if it's not unlockable. So it's ok with your.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] gatomdl:
Lol sorry guys I meant to say it is NOT unlockable
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] bamaredwingsfan:
So let me get this straight, I could buy the Google Fi version and pop my Moto x pure Sim card in and activate the phone on Verizon's network correct?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] pizza_pablo:
I am unsure if the Android One version will work on Verizon.

The unlocked US version works on Verizon.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] dirtfoot:
I bought the Android one version for Google's project fi and I'm using it on Verizon. Only been about one day but no issues that I've noticed.

I guess I'm the exception. XT1900-1, not Amazon, not One, but the fscking fastboot command will not work after hours of trying everything but standing on my head. CentOS7.4 and I've put in the latest SDK.

Power off, power and down-volume and get "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (Secure)"

The cable that comes with it isn't for charging only since I can get the device ID. WTLF?

This phone is brand new straight out of the box. I have another new one from Worst Buy, and it's failing exactly the same way. I had no problem doing this with my old Moto X.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
Motorola Support tells me emphatically that the phone is not unlockable. They refer me here:

https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solution/MS87215

If this is the case, it is going back.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
That's what I thought too, my G4 Plus is on that list. I have asked this question on their forums, but no answer yet.

First you need to unlock the bootloader by using a code provided by Motorola/Lenovo.

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
As I say above, I've gone through their procedure scores of times. The phone responds that it can not understand the "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" command, as above.

Moto second-level support told me though that third parties can unlock it. And I suspect that "fastboot flash bootloader {file}" would do it too, if the right file.

I bought it because ppl here said it is unlockable.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
Did you enter the developer mode in the phone's menu (by tapping 7 times on the Build Number) and set the OEM unlocking switch to "Allow"?

Or we might need a fastboot cable to get into a different factory mode?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
I had not set the OEM unlocking switch to "Allow", but now I have and still

...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.000s

Volume up takes me to a "Factory Mode", but that just does a regular boot.

Yeah this phone goes back tomorrow. Not being able to get root is unacceptable.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
Wait, you have two retail devices that won't unlock??

Generally, the restriction on unlock is at the IMEI level, not the device level... as in the web site won't generate the unlock key for your device if it is a variant that was restricted (Like several of the x4 are).

But the US Retail variants should all be unlockable.

Just to be clear, the unlock site is saying the IMEI is not unlockable??
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
No. Please look carefully at my posts about this. I am talking about unlocking the bootloader.

The phones are not recognizing the command given at the Motorola site. Neither phone is.. Both respond exactly the same to:

# fastboot oem get_unlock_data

They are seen respectively by;

# fastboot devices

But do not understand

# fastboot oem get_unlock_data

I can't even get to the point where the motorola site qualifies whether they are unlockable or not.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
Right. What I am saying is the odds of ending up with two retail devices that are not functioning correctly are pretty slim... highly unlikely.

I would try a different abd/fastboot version and/or driver first...then different USB port and/or cable. The problem is more likely on the computer end than the phone end.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] dimdom1919:
I also have the XT1900-7. This is the German Free Model.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
I've tried everything; Motorola's software on Linux, Windows 10, on every selection in the fastboot menu, upside-down and sideways.

Looks to me like it's more likely the new XT1900s are not unlockable, like it says on the Motorola page.

I give up on the XT1900.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
Strange. Motorola has never restricted unlock on a full-device basis... only on subsidized models. Not sure why they would start with a US retail model three months after its release.

I am guessing this will turn out to be an isolated incident. If not, that would pretty much signal the end of development for Moto devices.

On devices that are not unlockable, you would simply get "command not found" on fastboot unlock command... not wonky/strange behavior. Really still sounds like a cable/port/driver issue to me.

I don't see where the Motorola website says the device is not unlockable... it just isn't updated..

Anyhow, we wait and see...
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
As I said in 25, it's here.

And as I said in 29, after I enabled the Developer mode OEM unlocking switch to "Allow", I've since gotten

...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.000s

Both phones bought new last week, one from BestBuy, and the other on eBay from a guy in Chicago. (I'm in Seattle)

I'm getting the Z2 Force (even though it's too big for a jeans back pocket). It's crashed in price from $800 to under $300 because there's a texting bug for 3rd party apps like Signal. (and other fixable reasons, thanks to it being rootable) It's not waterproof, which is big for me, but at least splashproof, and I'm not buying anything but Motorola which I've used since cell phones began.. The Z2 has a smaller battery than the Z, but it's still good for a day, and I can clip on a big honking add-on battery when needed. (Caution: Heed the Must-Dos in that forum, or you'll be sorry)
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
Don't go by the Motorola website... the X4 US retail IS unlockable.

Like the X4 (and just about every other Moto device), there are variants of the Z2 that are not unlockable, so be careful purchasing.

That said, knowing only of Amazon being not-unlockable, it still seems to me like an issue on the PC side. These devices should ALL respond to the oem commands... it is the web app that decides whether the device is allowed to be unlocked. In other words, the restriction is not IN the device. It is in a database on a Motorola server.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] kraatus90:
did you tried running same command 3-4 times again after getting that "failed" massage ? i was having same problem. had to run it 8-9 times to get the code, and another 4-5 times to unlock it.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
Sure, the website will tell you whether the phone is unlockable, BUT ONLY after you provide it the

hash

from the phone. But again, I never get that far. The phone does not understand the command to get the hash. It's the phone that does not understand the command, and therefore will not give up the hash -- which I would then put in the website if only I could get it, just like I did successfully with my old X. But the phone does not understand the command. It's the phone that's the problem.

I bought this Z2 Force. Hopefully it won't be such a sorry story. TMobile Z2 Force can be unlocked; ATT & Verizon can not. (Can Verizon ever?)

I tried 20 times or more, but the problem is the command always hangs on the second try, as I've said. The command HANGS and never comes back with anything. I have to shut off the phone and reboot into fastboot. Examining the real-time log, on the second try the log entry stops at:

"comma"

(in the middle of 'command') It's just stuck. And I tried over 20 times, every which-way and in every fastboot menu that didn't reboot, and in CentOS7.4 and Windows10, with the most current Android SDK, which I assume does the larger 4k blocks since the Moto site points to it specifically.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
What it boils down to is that there was either 1.)an incompatibility in your setup causing failure (USB controller, flaky port, bad cable, etc), OR 2.)you ended up with two separate devices from two different sources that are broken in the same way.

My whole reason for questioning this was to determine if there had been a change by Motorola to not allow unlocking. Fortunately that does not seem to be the case.

Hopefully your Z2 will play well out of the box with your PC setup.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] SoNic67:
Isn't that the Z2 Force phones for TMo don't have CDMA? So they don't work on Verizon network (or their MVNO).
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
Correct. But I care about privacy so would never use Verizon. And I care about internet neutrality so would never use Verizon or AT&T.

Unlocked with the Z2 now and happy. I like to run a virus scanner, and de-fang most of G**gle's snooping toys, and so must have root.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jiggyman:
Did you ever get your Moto X4 unlocked? I just bought one from Best Buy and unlocked it on the first try. My model is XT1900-1.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
No, I never did. Mine was a XT1900-1 too.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jiggyman:
That's wacky. Where did you purchase yours, if you don't mind me asking?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Quantumstate:
I said above.

Now; I don't run Windows like it seems the rest of you do. I tried fastboot.exe in a virtual machine, but that failed too. It just gave . . . and hung forever.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] TheBassDude:
So are you using Linux? I unlocked and rooted my XT1900-1 in Ubuntu just yesterday. Initially ran into some trouble with the commands once the phone was rebooted to fastboot. Turns out all I had to do was use "sudo" for those commands and then it worked like a charm!
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] mightysween:
The US Moto X4 *is* unlockable with the exception of subsidized Amazon models, and the person who has been debating this fact no longer has one anyway. We can probably let this one go now... :)
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Archangel:
Possibly thinking on purchasing a Moto X4 from Best Buy and just wanting to make sure that it is bootloader unlockable since the moto website doesnt list it as one that can be unlocked?

https://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/solution/MS87215
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jiggyman:
Yes it is unlockable. It's the XT1900-1 Retail Edition. I bought it and unlocked it right out of the box. I flashed the Android One stock Oreo firmware and I'm loving it!
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Archangel:
Thank you for answering! Did you unlock using the moto website? I was just wondering about the unlock codes because on the site it doesnt say this model is eligible for unlocking?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jiggyman:
I did. The retail edition is unlockable.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] sfhub:
Could someone answer a simple question.

Project Fi version of Moto X4

Is Bootloader unlockable?

Is the method to use

fastboot oem get_unlock_data

and get the unlock code from moto website

or is it even simpler and I can do

fastboot oem unlock

On the older nexus devices from google you could just do the bootloader unlock from fastboot without need to retrieve an unlock code from manufacturer.

With the different versions of this phone, I was unsure if the bootloader unlock procedure was the same on all variants.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] carloandreaguilar:
Me too. Does anyone think maybe we can flash the retail or A1 stock firmware??? We have the same exact model number

Some people with the xt-1900-7 Amazon variant can flash the A1 firmware but can have modem issues or fingerprint issues.

Is it logical to think we wouldn't since we have the same exact model number?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] deadrage78:
Did you ever find any more info about this?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Zarxrax:
I got the Android One version from Project Fi, and I'm not having any luck unlocking this either. Can anyone answer definitively whether the project fi version is unlockable? If not then I just wasted a bunch of money on a phone that I thought I could unlock :(
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jhedfors:
Did you do this?

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

You will also need to toggle OEM unlocking in Developer Options.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Zarxrax:
Yes, that page is where I got the command for which I pasted the output in my comment.

I have enabled developer options and enabled OEM unlocking. I installed the motorola usb drivers. I've done everything that it asks, but the fastboot oem command is not working.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Zarxrax:
Today I tried uninstalling the motorola drivers, reinstalling and then rebooting, now it works. My best guess is that the drivers got corrupted somehow the first time I installed them.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] cal4877:
How?? Even the website says it can't ...I even bricked my phone three times

And once I enter the oem code it says that this device is not unlockable
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] jhedfors:
Since you did not mention it... Did you allow OEM unlocking in Developer Options?

I have not yet tried this on my XT1900-01, but there are many who have reported that they have.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] Neffy27:
It can definitively be unlocked. Need the OEM toggled turned on in dev options and unlock code by Motorola to unlock via fastboot cmd.
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] cal4877:

[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] johnjingle:
I just received an unlock code for a second 1900-1 X4. It works just fine with retail and Project Fi. Just use fastboot to get the code you need and go to moto's bootloader unlock site.

I'm having the same problem as the OP on my Project Fi version of the Moto X4. I have enabled bootloader unlocking in the Developer Options, but when I issue the "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" command, the result is "FAILED (remote: unknown command)" so I cannot get the unlock code.

Is there anyone else who had this issue and was able to fix it instead of just giving up like the OP did?
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] MotoX4:
Project Fi (Google Fi)

I am Google Subscriber of Project Fi and purchased my phone 2-3 months ago. My phone came preinstalled with Andriod 7.0 and after a lot of updates, I finally updated to the current Andriod 8.1.0 ( OPW28.2 May 1, 2018). A few more details

Model: Moto X4

Software Variant: google_fi

Software Channel: retus

SKU: XT1900-1

Andriod security patch level: May 1, 2018

Baseband version: M660_7042.27.01.74R PAYTON_NA_CUST

Kernel version: 4.4.78-perf-g1828778-00020-gc8620a9-dirty (gcc version 4.9.x 20150123 (prerelease) (GCC) ) hudsoncm@ilclbld27 #1 Rue May 15 08 08:21:53 CDT 2018

Motorola version is: OPW25.46-18

I used Mozilla Firefox to access Motorola's website and on more than one occasion would accept the long code generated by fastboot.exe which I obtained here ( ), but upon clicking submit on Motorola's website, I would be greeted with a white page (all white), with a single sentence which read that there was an error on the site (more or less, I forget the exact words). However, I did not give up and continued to try several times and today, finally, was successful.

Additional steps I took include that I did register my device with Motorola's website before unlocking my phone ( ). I noticed their warranty really isn't long since they claimed it was going to expire December 2018 (6 months from now) and so I didn't feel guilting knowing that unlocking my phone wasn't going to be an issue for me (I still have another device registered with them that will remain untouched and locked.).

If I can learn how to obtain the ever so sought after firmware, I'd be happy to share it here since I know people always seem to want that. That said, YES, you can indeed unlock this phone.

^ To new to be helpful. Kind of counterproductive, but OK...
[Moto X4 Questions & Answers] sfhub:
That is just the default warranty if you don't have a purchase receipt. They take the manufacture data and add like 2 months grace period to get the phone sold, then 12mo from there. If you bought the phone in May, you'll have 12mo from purchase date. They'll probably ask you to provide proof of purchase. I don't know if Fi is covering the warranties on these phones like the used to for past phones.
