Anyway to add android 6 or 7 in my Moto x 1052 with locked bootloader? - Moto X Q&A

Hi All,
I have lollipop 5.1 currently installed in my moto x 1052 and I wanted to update it to android 6 or 7. The problem is that Motorola support website says that my bootloader is not unlockable. So, I wanted to know if there is any way to install android 6 or 7(any version) with locked bootloader. Please help in pointing out to detailed instructions as I am new to this.
Thanks in Advance

[Q] European MOTO X - XT1052 - Root and Bootloader questions

XT1052 - European Moto X
So, this device just got released in Europe, and i just received it today in my mail. Searching the forums (obviously) did not return any valuable information on how to gain root and unlock the bootloader on this device (if this can be done).
Does anyone know how to deal with this device? Or if I can treat it as any specific US model and follow the guides for it?
Thanks in advance. :good:

I searched but I didn't received for Indian model of moto x .I tried to root my phone using slap my moto but it didn't work
There is a whole Indian model thread and a reference guide for rooting. Please just search next time.
It makes no difference what area or carrier you're on.... Rooting methods depend on Android version and locked or unlocked bootloader.

Eligible to unlock and root ?

EDIT sorry only confused myself I have the "pure " moto x I thought this was a special edition moto x with pure stock android instead of moto "pure" which means no bloatware from carriers and unlocked which mine is so I have the pure edition and it qualifies for unlockings
Mods can close this if you like

If your device is XT1092 then it's NOT pure edition, it's retail.You can unlock your boot loader on Motorola website,but if your device is XT1092,your warranty will be void.

[Q] Need help with this riddle. Any advise would be appreciated.

Is the Moto XT1097 with the android version 5.1 able to he downgraded. Thanks for any kind of answers at all. Been looking at different sites and all kind of tutorials. Still haven't found any answer to my questions. Thanks in advanced.
Here is my riddle?
I got a moto XT1097 bought from at&T in America with the 5.1 android version. How do I root it? Is it worth to even downgrade to try and root it that way . I know for a fact the boot loader cannot be unlocked. OEM Is one that can not be unlocked. Thanks for any advice, help, anthing at all. Been wracking and researching away to root it and all of my roads lead to a headache.
The AT&T xt1097 cannot be unlocked. You can root with MOFO if an updated 5.1 image has been made for your device. Since your device cannot be unlocked, you cannot downgrade.

Thanks. I do not have the 5.1 image for my device at all. When I bought the phone it was updated on the spot. I know for sure right now these versions are not rootable. Guess I am going to have to wait or root. Thanks for the help.

Motorola and Verizon have stated that they will not update the XT1096 to MM or 6.x so there is no "official" Marshmallow firmware from Motorola for this phone.
You can find an 99% stock MM ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/development/rom-xt1096-verizon-flashable-stock-rom-t3327345. Please read the full thread and ask questions there about this ROM. Some people - including me - are using it as their daily driver with little to no issues. This ROM has all the Motorola apps (Voice, Display, etc.) working as expected from a stock ROM.
Another option CM13. Read this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/orig-development/rom-official-cm-13-0-nightly-releases-t3256580/post65781867#post65781867. CM13 works on the XT1096 and other CM13-based ROMs should work but you will need to verify by reading their threads. Please be sure to read the full thread and ask questions there about CM13 or in the other threads related to other ROMs.
This is assuming that you are on the Verizon network and want to keep CDMA functionality. If you are using this phone on a GSM network and do not care to keep the CDMA access then you might want to look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/guide-xt1097-to-xt1095-nextel-t2972693
All of the options above require that you have an unlocked bootloader. If your bootloader is locked please go here to learn about unlocking it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/general/motorola-unlocking-verizon-moto-x-2014-t3291104
Please read and learn as much as you can. Most - if not all - of your questions will be answered by reading through the threads listed.
XT1085
Hello everyone,
I'm currently using the moto X 2nd generation bought in china (XT1085) running android 5.0.2.
I would like to get rid of the retcn version of the system because I don't speak chinese for a retEU or retUS and install android 6 MM. Is it possible?
My phone is rooted and TWRP recovery installed
I tried to install this version : Version 6, because one guy wrote on the topic that it worked on TX1085 but it failed for me, and my phone stayed on the Motorola launching screen.
So now I'm back with the factory setup and would like to now how to install android 6.0?
Thanks
