[Q] "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking" - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
So I wanted to unlock the bootloader of my Moto G 2014 (Europe XT1068)
I've done all the steps from another thread here, but everytimes the Motorola website tells me that I am not eligible. Why not?
My code got no space and dont have the (bootloader) tag code it's a clean normal code by the way.
And also, is there a way of rooting my phone without unlocking the bootloader?

[Q] Bootloader unlocking proceedure

Hello !
I have Moto X Rogers and received bootloader unlock code, but I forgot the instructions from Motorola how it should be unlocked. So if anyone went through this procedure please remind me, on official moto site I can't access that information any more for some reason, thanks.

[Q] Unlock EU Moto X (XT1052)?

Someone in the forums said it is possible but never gave me a link to how it's done. Can anyone confirm or deny that there is a way to unlock the bootloader for the Moto X XT1052?
I've done it so it definitely is possible. It's just like for all other models. https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a

Are you serious? With the European XT1052 model? I tried already and it said my bootloader cannot be unlocked :/
EDIT: Tried again just now and didn't work.

I am serious. Unlocked and rooted European XT1052 (retail Germany) without any problems. Did you put those strings together correctly?

That's weird as hell. Let me try again. Bought mine from the UK but it's still XT1052 so there shouldn't be any problems.

Yes, dhackers version http://androidhosting.org/Devs/Dhacker29/MotoX/
The ability to bootloader unlock is set generally set by the provider and not the model number of the phone. In North America the AT&T XT1058 can't be bootloader unlocked but several other providers who do sell the XT1058 do allow the bootloader to be unlocked.
I haven't see any official information from Motorola regarding European Moto X's but it is possible they can't all be bootloader unlocked.

I bought a UK XT1052, using in Oz, just got bootloader code. So it may be carrier specific as suggested?
Mine is locked too.. Just bought it at phone house / motomaker...

They ALL -come- locked. Even the Developer editions come locked from the factory. You must request the code from Motorola to unlock.
If you have issues, re-read the instructions, and TRY A DIFFERENT BROWSER. People have reported success after doing these two things:
1. Copy the "unlock data" from the command prompt/terminal into NOTEPAD, remove the spaces, and then copy the entire string from Notepad into the browser (on Moto's unlock website).
2. Use a different browser! I don't know how many posts I've seen where the user didn't have success on ABC browser, but it worked immediately when using XYZ browser.
Good Luck :good:

Thanks will try. Quick question. Will I still have retla as a channel and have no inconvenience with OTA? I got my phone in Colombia from retail
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pAebMHmbLYJm-tRhwtsEH1DxlS_ZKL0s/view?usp=sharing
That is the link for the latest January security patch for XT1801 the one that is sold in Colombia with retla as a channel. With that one I could relock it as it has signed images. It was donwloaded directly on the rsd cloud services by motorola.

Root for g6?

Root for xt 1925
If you like to root it, you need:
1) Unlock the bootloader. Try to do it using the official Motorola website. If you have success, then please comment here.
2) A custom TWRP recovery. At time, no one has compiled it and the kernel sources from Motorola are missing.
3) MagiskSU. After you installed the custom recovery, then you can try to install Magisk. If you have sucess, then you have rooted it.
So, be patient!

I managed to unlock my bootloader, tested on my bike G6 Plus XT1926-7. Unlock the Blootloader as in any other Motorola device.
Custom Recovery TWRP EVERT (https://build.lolinet.com/file/twrp-3.2.1-0-evert.img). Thanks to user ahmed.al
The TWRP works, but it must still be in development. The appliance is partitioned into two A/B partitions. In TWRP you can switch from partition A to B. DON'T DO THAT UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR DEVICE TO BRICK LIKE MINE. Wait for the TWRP to be officially released to tamper with the device.

Thank you for the info! :good:
If you like to "root" your device, try with MagiskSU:
- Unlock your bootloader (warning: this will erase all your data!).
- Copy the last Magisk install to your internal SD CARD.
- Reboboot to the Custom Recovery (TWRP), without flashing it.
- Inside the TWRP select "install" the Magisk.
- Reboot & check if Magisk is installed and running in your device.
Regards!

Official XT-1925 purchased in GERMANY?
This is worrying! The RETEU really needs to be unlockable, as the law in Europe are very restrictive.
So, please other people with RETEU units: You can get the unlock key from Motorola?
Hi,
As the MagiskSU it's at time the best rooting method, and you only need a Custom Recovery (TWRP beta, for example), I need to know if the Moto G6+ has the F2FS loopback bug. If it has it, until a custom kernel will be available, this Magisk module can be a workaround:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/guide-magisk-official-version-including-t3577875
Please, test it and comment your results.
Thank you!

Hello, I had a lot of motorola version, RETEU or ORAEU and I always managed to unlock it, posted your key from here or sent me by MP. I can unlock it for free, it often comes from too much space.

Hi, I bought a G6 Plus reteu from Amazon Italy, when I put my bootloader code to official motorola unlock tool it says to me "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking". I sent a message to lenovo support forum about this problem and I am waiting for a response.
How are you able to retrieve the code?

So the problem seems to appear for different users.
Please, for users with success/fail... can you write your hardware version and brand? For example:
XT-1926-3/RETEU: FAIL
XT-1925/???: FAIL
etc.
Just get on the Lenovo support forum and give them your bootloader info and in two-three business days you should get code.

Hi,
sorry for English
I have a xt 1925-3 retbr and managed to unlock the bootloader normally just like any other,
but the message "bad key" appears each time the phone starts.
But the real problem is that I do not find any TWRP for him and I saw a post from a friend saying that the basic motog has a more annoying encryption system than the plus / play

Hi, sorry that this is old, but I've had my XT1900-5 for a few months and want to start rooting it finally. But I haven't bothered much because of the issue I've read about unlocking this bootloader. What signed ROM etc. ? Any help to get me started would be useful.
no complexity,just follow the instructions in moto website , copy the code properly(use the moto recommended tool for accuracy) & you are good to go,for twrp & root see the forum.
