Do you have the Razr HD XT925 or XT926? One is for Verizon, and the other isn't.
One can unlock the bootloader (XT925) via Motorola & void warantee, the other (XT926 for Verizon) can't be unlocked.
What are you trying to accomplish? What is "locked"? These are things that are needed to be known to give any kind of suggestions or ideas.

No rooting won't unlock the carrier of it phone. Rooting is just unlocking the system, carrier lock is different. Contact it vendor or u can Google search '(carrier name) unlock device'
It should be on it carriers website.

My question is in the title. So I have recently bought a manufacturer refurbished TF300T off eBay, everything is working like a charm except for that it cannot be unlocked using the official Unlock Device Tool (throws an error saying "Unknown error. This might be a network connection issue..."). I contacted ASUS customer support and their answer is that a refurbished product simply cannot be unlocked without any further explanation, which doesn't really make sense to me. Anyway, I've been searching on the Internet for other means to unlock my device but no luck at all. I would appreciate if anyone can help me solve this problem or at least give me an explanation as to why unlocking can't be done on a refurbished tablet. Many thanks in advance!
P.S. I am trying to install Ubuntu on my device that's why it needs to be unlocked.
Suggest you read more before you brick it. Unlocking the bootloader and rooting are two separate things. Kingo roots it easily. You'll be staying locked if unlock tool does not work for you.

thank you for your reply. I thought rooting and unlocking were the same thing.
Hi 2easy4sam,
Were you able to unlock your transformer?
I also have a refurb tf300t, and the official unlock tool doesn't work on it.. Can't use the tablet with stock ROM anymore!

Go to Asus Suport with screenshots of the error, a speedtest, build number and mac adress. Tell them to update their database with correct informations. Then you'll be able to unlock your tablet with this tool.
If they tell you can't try it one more time and don't let them before your tablet is unlocked. Don't listen to the guys who said it isn't supported anymore.
I've been talking with a woman from asus support, she was cool and did what she had to do. The first time it didn't work, they probably didn't upgraded as they had to... I insisted and she retried it. Now my TF300T is unlocked and everything works well.
If you are cool with them and you insist, it will be ok.
PS: Sorry for my bad english

Hello Guys @ XDA.
I need HELP unlocking the bootloader of my Moto G 4G XT1045 Cricket mobile phone.
Please Help
Thanks in Advance.
Go to the Motorola Bootloader Unlocking site and follow the instructions on the site.
Google that, and you should be able to unlock your phone at a bootloader level.
That won't work. You'll just get a message about this device not being eligible for unlocking or something like that.

DC-Unlocker might be both your/OP's best bet if that works, but if it does not, then sadly, you might be stuck with a phone that you cannot do much, and believe me, it sucks as my brother-in-law had a Sony Xperia neo that was locked to T-Mobile, and therefore bootloader-locked, as a SIM-locked phone usually has its bootloader locked as well.
Update: after checking out the site, Motorola phones aren't supported.
Update #2: Check this out, but this will leave you $25 lighter on your wallet:

Unless something has changed recently, Sunshine doesn't work either because it's 4.4.4. Even if it did- yeah, it probably doesn't make much sense to spend more money than the phone is worth to unlock it. ?

@darko454 My post on the other thread you had started here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/help/slota-flash-copypartitions-zip-t4107729
has detailed installation instructions. I too have a 1955-5 Metro by t-mobile Moto G7 Power. If you end up needing help or getting in a jam hmu 24/7. Just send me a message on xda and I'll more than likely respond fairly fast.
