I'm really liking the Moto G after having picked one up the other day from AIO Wireless.
I was able to use the Ebay link that was posted here to get the SIM lock taken care of and now I'm wanting to get the Bootloader unlocked so I can proceed with Recovery, ROM, etc.
When attempting to use the Motorola site to unlock the Bootloader it says that "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking"
My guess is that AIO (AT&T MVNO) has worked with Motorola to prevent the unlocking so as to prevent custom ROMs which would allow for tethering, etc.
Are there any other solutions available? Anyone here using an "AIO" version of the Moto G and able to get this sorted out?
THANK YOU!!
Make sure you copied the key properly

Thanks. The issue is not a proper copying of the key unfortunately. There are other people online posting with the same issue and the same provider.
Hoping that the community can help or that someone on here would have an idea of how to step past this.

You're hosed. Only solution is: Return the device and purchase an unlocked one.

There is actually a dude on YouTube showing how to do with specifically with AIO Wireless. He used a site called fastgsm.com
(Do YouTube search for AIO Wireless Moto G Unlock)
I know I know, this post sounds like an ad for the site but it really isn't. I am interested in trying this but I want confirmation that this site works before I throw any money at it. If you try it let us know your results.
CID values determine whether unlockable
AIo is 0x0010: not unlockable

From my research it seems as if this phone can't be rooted because you cannot unlock the bootloader.
Has anyone tried "Poot to Root" on the Verizon Prepaid Moto G? I don't need an Unlocked Bootloader, just Root access.
I rooted my Kyocera Event (with a locked bootloader) in less than a minute using Poot. From what I have read, Poot to Root is made for Qualcomm phones, and the Moto G is Qualcomm.
So, has anyone tried this yet? Does it work?
Right now this is the only working method to unlock the bootloader.
It costs money, and there's no other known way to root the Verizon Moto G
So my girl friend has a Moto G she loves but wants me to unlock so she can install theftie as well as other xposed modules like I have on my Nexus 5. Problem is when I went to unlock her bootloader today Motorola's site said she wasn't eligible for there unlock. Is there any other way to unlock a moto g's Bootloader? Her phone is with Virgin mobile and neither Bell or Virgin show in there list of supported devices!

check if your bootloader status is yes, if it is then you can unlock following the guide here in xda if its no then you can't
So I have tried various methods but they all seem to involve using the Motorola website and it just says my device is not eligible. Is there any way?

After hours and hours of trying, I would like some help from you guys.. I already know the moto g verizon prepaid requires Sunshine to unlock bootloader (is that free now? it let me download something, but it said i had to be rooted first with temp root). I couldn't find any software to temporary root my moto g. so i read a guide on how to downgrade 5.1 to 4.4.4, but then i realized i had to have an unlocked bootloader to downgrade.
So my question:
Is there a way to root the moto g 5.1 (verizon prepaid) with and without an unlocked bootloader?
I'm not sure what to do..If there is any way whatsoever to root the moto go 5.1 verizon prepaid, can you help me get going?
i appreciate it muches, thanks guys
