[Q] Moto X on MetroPCS

Has anyone had any problems, or even gotten an unlocked Moto X on MetroPCS? I searched everywhere, but couldn't find anything. I know that Metro has your own BYOD program in DFW and other cities, but is that ONLY for their phones that are listed? Any info on the subject would be much appreciated.

it's not officially supported.
Metro pcs is part of t Mobile now. If you bring over an unlocked gsm device I think they even give you a $50 rebate. Friend of mine did it with a Puerto Rico moto x. All on t mobiles network if you do it.

I know this thread is several months old but I had an unlocked Moto X activated on metro today. So far everything is working well. It shows that I have 4G LTE. I have tested calls and data using both the 4G and wifi connections. I am using an unlocked GSM Moto X.

I also have just had a MOTO X on Metro PCS. I ordered the Phone, and also the Metro PCS Sim Cards for $10(plus tax) from their website. Installed the sim card, and called *228. They ask for the IMEI# which doesn't show up in their system. I told them it was an unlocked phone. They input the serial, and Metro Sim # and it's working fine.

I'm still using my xt1053 on Metropcs. I lost all data after the LP update but fixed it with a new Apn. Otherwise I've had no issues in the last 18+ months. (no issues with the service, I have all kinds of issues with the phone itself after updating.)

Use current MotoG T-Mobile sim on new MotoX?

Currently have an unlocked MotoG, have MotoX coming soon. On the TMobile $30 prepaid plan if it matters.
Is it simply a matter of moving the sim to the X and it will work automatically or do I have to call and go through some shenanigans with TMobile?
Curious, may want to use the G for work then the X for home life.

If by any chance you forget, the G uses Micro-SIM while the X requires Nano-SIM.

Well it will work if you cut it down. But I'd advise against it, cause I did that and now the sim is stuck since the tray won't eject.
I got mine out via two safety pins, one to put in the hole and one to pry it open.

Thank God someone else in the same boat!!!
I bought a US Cellular Note 5 from a Wal-Mart on their $199 deal and had been led to believe it could be used on Verizon (Slickdeals professors) but today is last day to return and I am in a quandry...
I need to be sure it is unlocked.
I need to make sure it will work on Verizon
In other words, " I NEED help!"
The phone still says US Cellular when it turns on AND when I put a generic Verizon Sim card in, it doesn't recognize it - th e SIM card had not been used before.
The clock is ticking (my fault) and I am still outside the Wal-Mart hoping for feedback.
I thank you all in advance.

Moto X 2013 owners in India (Reliance Jio LTE band support)

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?

moto g5s plus work on Verizon? mine didnt work

Has anyone gotten their moto g5s plus xt1806 to work on the verizon network? I went into a store, tried to sign up they said the phone was compatable. It didnt work. Tried to make sure the access name was correct. Couldnt get it to work.
Even though it says that the sanders xt1806 phone is compatable, it didnt work. Has anyone gotten the verizon network to work on our g5s plus'?
I have straight talk. With a
Verizon sim card and it's work flawlessly. Even occasionally says Verizon at the top. No other things that you really need to do but pop the sim in.

Works for me on Verizon prepaid. I dealt with it via customer service and not in the store.
Does this answer your question. Granted this is a custom rom but I started with stock for 2 months and it's flawless.
Mine works on stock. No problems. Popped in sim and was good to go.
I use mine on Verizon currently as well. Used it out of the box for a few months, then custom Rom and root, still doing fine
Stock but rooted on Verizon without issues. I do notice my Turbo had better LTE Service, but its not a huge deal to me.
