Moto X 2013 owners in India (Reliance Jio LTE band support) - Moto X Q&A

Any Moto X 2013 owners in India got their phone to work on Reliance Jio network?
This phone supports 4G LTE bands 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 17(700) - US and 3(1800), 7(2600), 20(800) - EU.
If I'm not mistaken Jio uses LTE band 3(1800), 40(2300) India for their network so technically we should be able to use it right?
Even if VoLTE has not been enable on the firmware level by Motorola but still their JioVoice app should do the trick.
But the issue is right now their latest app is not generating any bar code on Moto X(2013) phones, that old apk method might work but I just wanted to make sure if the effort is even worth it.
Anyone already using Jio on their Gen 1 Moto X? Please respond. Thanks in advance.

looks like what u predicted is true!
I have been using the jio on my moto x(ghost) Indian retail variant for about a month and I have to say it just works fine without any issues.
Note:-the VOLTE SUPPORT IS NOT PRESENT SO USE JIO4GVOICE APP FOR CALLS
See attached pics for proof

Thanks so much for the response. :good:
BTW did you use the old apk method because the latest versions fail to generate the damn barcode on my X2013? And any reliable link for the apk?
Also did you try tinkering with the VoLTE Provisioned Flag from the INFO mode(*#*#4636#*#*)?
Though I doubt that it will make any difference without VoLTE enabled on a firmware level by Motorola like they did with the Moto X Play with a firmware update but still worth a shot I guess.
Thanks again.

Actually it was the case that I generated the barcode on my friend's moto g3 and then I plugged the sim in my moto x and in that case it worked fine and flawlessly.
Another thing:-i just went in to the info. Mode and set the Freq. To "LTE only".
One more thing:-if u want then still u can generate the code by the old jio (v 3.2.05) app.the app will show the "get the jio sim" only when all jio apps are installed.
For the old version of my jio app just Google it by mentioning the version u will easily get some down links

Ah I see. Thanks again.

moto x xt1060
I have a Moto x xt1060, it was working very good in india with airtel but recenty i just put a jio 4g sim to check if it support or not hten when i inserted my airtel sim again there is not network, its says 'sim card is not from verizon wireless' plz help me what to do? in recovery mode it says device is locked status code 0

I used the jio sim in the device officially sold in India I.e. the xt1052 variant.this same variant was also sold in Europe and so this model had no issues running the sim.
Moreover Verizon is a cdma carrier in US while the jio in India is completely based on the gsm carrier.
U might not get support for sim as of lack of the proper bands or as of the improper unlock.

Hi guys,
I have the MOTO X US Cellular 16gb which is infact working with only reliance JIO
Let me know if anyone need it for cheap?
Thanks

I just started using JIO today. The jio4Gvoice app is annoying coz it doesn't let me call through my stock phone app. Is it possible to call from Jio without the 4gvoice app?

Using Sprint Moto X on Straight Talk?

Guys,
I have a question. I am in the market for upgrading my Motorola Photon. Its right timing for Motorola to launch Moto X. I am currently with Sprint but I may switch to Straight Talk soon.
If I buy Off contract Moto X on Sprint, can I use it on Stright Talk?
Thank you.
No.

Why not? Doesn't the Moto X support LTE bands that AT&T and Straight Talk uses? It also has SIM card slot right?
Anybody here who can help?

Not LTE, just HSPA+. It will work fine, just not with LTE.

Does anyone know how the sim lock actually works? I have bought new Sprint Moto X recently from ebay. I live in Europe and the phone wasn't activated yet. I can't use any local sim, but what's strange is that I have called to Sprint support and don't have my phone's IMEI in their DB, so I suspect that the lock is just a software lock on the phone itself. Is there any chance that the lock can be bypassed by flashing a different ROM?
Any update on this? Thank you

[Q] Will unlocking the bootloader allow me to use international SIM cards?

I purchased the Moto X Developer Edition (GSM) after confirming with Motorola that is was unlocked and could be used internationally with local SIMs (not AT&T or T-Mobile. I am now abroad and the phone shows "No Service - Selected Network Unavailable". I confirmed that the network uses supported bands.
How can I unlock this phone for international use? It was purchased directly from Motorola and after spending over 6 hours (mostly on hold) trying to get resolution, they suggested I post here.
All help is welcome.
Thanks
It is unlocked but you probably need to enter the correct APN for your provider.

The APNs are correct but it doesn't work. I can't even make outgoing 2G calls. No network recognition. The SIM works in an iPhone 5.

So how do I SIM unlock this phone if it isn't attached to a specific network (can be either AT&T or T-Mobile)?
Developer editions are unlocked. Can you confirm your software version?
Did try selecting 2g under network mode?

Motorola did tell me it was unlocked before my order but in fact it is not and now motorola tech support says it can't help me. 2g doesn't work either.
Where are u trying to use it? Make sure Network Mode is Auto, do you see providers under Network Operators ?
If it was locked it would ask for you to enter the unlock code, so it's not locked. Perhaps the international radios are not functional properly.

[Q] Moto X Global unlock help.

Hey all.
I ordered a moto X about 2 weeks ago, i got the unlocked Tmobile version that was on sale for 350$
anyway i live abroad and i was sure that i would be able to use the phone here (like the moto G) but i cant, it seems that the phone is ONLY unlocked for US carriers.
So my questions are:
1) is there an easy way for me to unlock it Globally for free? (Tmobile said they can do it but only from a store in the US).
2) I saw people can buy unlock codes, but my phone does not show that it is unlocked so i'm not sure if that will work..?
Any help would be very appreciated!
Tevie.
If you have the tmobile version then the phone is already sim/provider unlocked.
Which phone exactly did you get and what specific problem are you having?

I got the moto x from moto maker (picked the unlocked T-Mobile version)
The problem is that its not unlocked for Sim abroad, only in the U.S . I wanted to know how I can get it to work with a Sim not from the U.S
TMO version is supposed to be unlocked for any carrier. How do you know that it is not the case? Did you try to put non-US SIM card and it failed?

Thanks for the replay's.
I did put a local Sim in the phone and it could not register to a local networked (the same Sim worked in a different phone )
Note that it found the local networks just can't log to them.
Note 2 . TM told me that its locked for use abroad ...
It is 100% unlocked, there is no partial lock on the phone. If the phone can't register with your provider there is a different problem not related to sim locking.
I'm using my T-Mobile X in the Caribbean all fine with no hiccups or issues. Maybe it needs the APN.

I bought the T-mobile version form Moto maker, and without a problem put a Base nano sim in it. Works fine. Strangely enough it shows 4G almost everywhere... Wonder if that is correct?

Does it jsut show the 4G symbol or the 4G with the small LTE next to it? If you have HSPA service, you will see 4G.
4G it shows, which in Belgium is HSPA+

Pure Edition

Thinking of getting the Moto X pure edition. For Verizon. Is this an unlock version like dev version of the phone? and theres a selection for unlock sim choice. Does that mean I can take it to any carrier? Thanks for any reply in advance.
1. It is carrier unlocked, but not boot loader unlocked. You can request a code from moto for that.
2. When I ordered my pure edition, the only option I saw was a T-Mobile Sim, though I've heard others say they got a different Sims installed.
3. I don't know how many carriers the PE works on, but it's more than just T-Mobile. And as for Verizon, I don't know, sorry.

I would ask someone who has Verizon to let you use their SIM card to see what service you get. Band 4 is VZW's "XLTE" band, which the PE supports. You won't get band 13, since the PE lacks that hardware. You might be able to pick band 4 though.
Unlikely that Verizon would activate a Pure on their network, so while you might get some LTE data you'll never have voice calling.

why does it have to be on Verizon?
I'm using my Pure Edition (XT1095) with Straight Talk (AT&T compatible SIM) with no issues and it gets about 15-20 MBs down with LTE within a 60-70 mile radius for me. I get good coverage and not have to deal with BS contracts.

This.
Verizon's network isn't like GSM networks where you can just pop your SIM in practically any phone and be done with it. They have to physically activate the phone on their network, and they won't if it's not their device. Your options are to either get a Verizon branded Moto X, or use the Pure on AT&T, TMo, or one of the many GSM MVNOs.

Moto G6 XT1925-6(retus) no GSM/LTE services in asia

Hello, can anyone make any custom rom for moto G6 to be use in asia? I tried every method but no luck, its still "no service" i'm currently in indonesia.
There are no custom roms on G6 and probably never will be. You can use a GSI(generic system image) aka treble rom to some people. In either case the rom is not the issue. What carrier are you using? Is it GSM or CDMA? Have you checked that the phone works on the LTE bands that carrier uses? Did you buy the device from a carrier? Maybe it's Sim locked if that's the case. You say you've tried various methods but didn't state what methods.

Hi..., Thanks for response. Am using GSM from indonesian carrier named XL, its support 4G LTE band. I dont know if its work or not, how to check it? It is a gift from US and i believe she bought it on amazon. I saw some videos from youtube that earlier motorola (G variant) has the same problem "no service" so i try to to fixed it from fastboot command and i've tried them all but nothing work i even unlock the bootloader
I took screenshot, but i cant post it
Please help me :'(
Your carrier uses Lte bands 3 and 8 which the phone supports. I am not sure why you have problems with service. I suspect you will have better luck with this issue on the official Moto forums. Sorry I can't help further.

Going of memory the phone doesn't support your carriers 2G and 3G technology. Again you should check the Moto forums imo.
