Rooting boost mobile moto G - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I just got this phone since my daughter dropped my S3 in the toilet.
I've been searching and went to the Motorola site to unlock boot loader but it said I can't do it.
Is there any way to root it and install a custom ROM? I keep reading but don't understand :/ I would appreciate the help!!
Thanks

There does not appear to be one on XDA.

Can someone build a cm11 Verizon based ROM?

If I submit a system dump can it be done? I need it for my boost moto g on page plus.

Its not a xt1028 its the boost variant. But running the Verizon stock few for page plus. No custom Roms work for page plus without enabling roaming so I'm stuck with vzw stock. Let me know if it is possible

If you wanted you can go to the stock rom page and use the verizon rom as the source.

But that's just an idea, I have no idea if that would help.

Well I what I can say is, Froyo and Gingerbread could easily be rooted using tools such as Z4Root but I believe these don't work on layer platforms.
I would have to say, it may be hard but not impossible? But it would recommend rooting your upcoming Moto G using a PC, its much safe and can be done with a single click.
Great things come in small packages.

Android 4.4.3

I know the nexus just got the 4.4.3. Waiting for when it's available for the moto G. But I've read the 4.4.3 has some difficulty or cause problems with root. If this is the case will I lose root if I update. Or should I go back to stock do the update and root again.
I appreciate any info...

4.4.3 and up is going to keep having root problems so i would wait and stick with 4.4.2 and Wait till its safe.
I intend to do that. Until I hear otherwise. Thanks for the reply.

thats a nexus device, that does not mean your Moto G will be safe.
True ! I'll wait to hear more.

yeah i just saw it myself, sadly i have the Verizon Variant of the moto x and only the T-mobile moto x got the update xD.
My concern is it safe to get the ota while I have root. Or if I gotta go back to stock and have to root again. I thought I had read that the 4.4.3 was gonna have difficulty with root.

not sure yet, since every model of the Moto G can have its boot-loader unlocked, im sure that 4.4.3 will be rooted very soon even with the difficulties if the OTA removes your root, i would just go with it.
