[Q] Verizon Prepaid Moto G Rooted

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I had given up on Moto G as a potential root on Verizon Prepaid, but then:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52717219
If it has, what guide would I use? If not, any suggestions for a rootable on Verizon Prepaid?

If you need Verizon prepaid, look into Page Plus, at www.pagepluscellular.com because they are prepaid on Verizon's network. The Boost Mobile Moto G is rootable and can be made to work on Page Plus.

Let me just add a comment here if I may.
I have a Boost MOTOG flashed to use Pageplus. Version 4.4.2
Although I have unlocked the bootloader and installed the SUPERSU via recovery, the phone will not root. No error messages or anything but if you try to use any app that needs root, it will not work.
It has something to do with Verizon & 4.4.2 version.

Yea, I'm getting mixed feedback. I appreciate the suggestion with Pageplus and still trying to look into it. The guys over at rootandroid told me they can't root the G on Verizon Prepaid. I really don't want to be on the "bleeding edge" as an amateur. Still looking for a proven method, or an alternative phone...

I have a Boost Moto G flashed to PP, on 4.4.2, and root works just fine for me. Running xposed like a champ. Titanium backup worked for removing needless apps, too. I used the superboot method.

I am seriously considering buying a Verizon prepaid Moto G, but this root issue may be a deal breaker for me. Why so much of a problem with rooting this phone. I know the bootloader is locked, but I have had phones that were locked but I was still able to root them. What's with the Moto G?

Thank you. When you get a minute, could you please look at what version your bootloader is? Mine is 41.05.
Thanks.

Going down the Pageplus road, but first another question. Is there another MVNO you might recommend other than Pageplus that's prepaid and on the Verizon net?
The reason is, I got pushback from Pageplus when I mentioned the G. Claim their dealers can't handle it. In addition they claim Verizon is blocking the G because it is a prepaid device.
In short it must be a 3g or backwards compatible to 3g device, nonprepaid and a Verizon contract phone.
I've found 3 PP dealers in the area, might see how far I get with the G or other best option they have. I just want to make sure I'm not overlooking another MVNO...

I use Page Plus, so I don't know any other MVNOs. They are correct about the Moto G, Verizon blocks their Moto G for at least 6 months. If you flash a Boost G, their imeis aren't registered on Verizon, so they come up fine. Dealers won't know this, but you can set yourself up on the Page Plus website. Kitty Wireless, a Page Plus dealer, offers free ESN checks to make sure you can use a phone with them. Kitty is all online, though.
Edit: I should specify, my wife has the Boost G on PP, I set it up. Bought a Verizon G before I knew about the locked bootloader and Boost flashing. When the Verizon G can be used on PP, we'll be trading phones.

[Q] Moto G unlock from network using custom ROM

Hello,
I have unlock the boot loader for the Moto G XT1032. If I flash a custom ROM to the phone will it remove the network lock on my phone?
I have tried unlocking but no one can find the code for it.
I have a
Model: Moto G XT1032
Network operator: Not too sure because the phone use a Virgin Mobile sim card (Canada) but the retailer i purchased the phone from said it locked to Bell (canada). The phone kernel says "Bell Mobility".
I have tried unlocking the phone using both virgin and bell and no one can give me the code.
Kernel Version: 173.44.30.falcon_umts.BellMobility.en.CA
Please help.

if you flash a custom rom on your phone it wont unlock the network lock. I also purchased a virgin mobile moto g then i bought the unlock code on ebay and unlocked it to use with rogers pretty much the next day after ordering the code through ebay.
just search on ebay.ca "motorola Moto G unlock code" and youll c a bunch of results. You can ask virgin for the unlock code but theyll likely charge you alot more for it.
happy days and lovely nights.

Hello,
Are you talking about Virgin Mobile in Canada. I a seller on ebay but he said he couldn't get me the unlock code. Could you direct me to who you used.
Also Virgin Mobile in Canada is owned by BELL (canada). What network carrier should I tell the seller especially since my phone kernel said bell mobility

So your phone was using a Virgin Mobile (Canada) SIM card? If so what did you put as your network carrier?

3.4.0 kernel version

OK, I don't want to hijack the thread, but I have a very similar issue and would very much appreciate some help.
I've bought a Tesco Moto G, XT-1032, which I've updated from 4.3 to 4.4.2 and is currently running the 176.44.1.falcon_umts.TEscoSL.en.GB update. Still haven't received 4.4.3 but whatever. I plan on using it on the Globul network in Bulgaria.
My issue is that I have tried network unlocking it 3 times - using unlockphone.co, freeunlocks and an ebay key - and failed. The reason with all three attempts was this: "Unfortunately, your unlock code was not available/Not Found on the database/server so I have issued full refund."
I am at a loss. I have successfully unlocked three Moto G's (XT-1032) just a couple of months prior to this one.
Has anyone seen anything like this before? How should I go about solving this issue?
I would very much appreciate some help.
EDIT: I should mention that unlike the original thread, the phone is still 100% stock.

I had simillar problen with code not found in database but there is another database so buy from this guy and from this auction. it is not cheap but it could work. :
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160993247848&ssPageName=ADME:X:AAQ:GB:1123
My problem is that I have installed custom ROM and phone is now not asking for unlock code. I have received unlock code but now I do not know how to enter it. Does anyone know any code for entering this code ?

Model number XT1032 is the Canadian model of Motorola Moto G and rogers, koodo, fido, telus & virgin mobiles offers this model. If it works with bell mobility then, Wipe the phone and do a factory reset. Then order the code here http://phoneunlockingshop.ca with bell mobility. Unlock code for this model are easily available now

Try to use phoneunlockingshop.ca for getting unlock code. because by flashing and rooting it`s network would not unlock

Will have to wait to get home to check the Moto G that I bought from consumer cellular. I know that it is listed as a XT1034 on the back, but have not checked how it is identified by the computer. As for the baseband version, that does not have to match the actual phone model number.
My other Moto G (US GSM) from Motorola is a XT1034 yet also lists 1032 in the baseband version number. However, the computer identifies it as XT1034. http://i.imgur.com/faQSiBU.png
Side Note: Does the Hotspot/Tethering option work on your consumer cellular Moto G? Mine does not list the option, but has an app that opens the menu, but nothing displays.

Thanks for the reply. I will check that once i get home. Also i am thinking build prop maybe control the model number that pops up on pc. Possible??

The Consumer Cellular XT1034 Moto G is showing as XT1032 on my computer as well.

Yeah, once I got it unlocked, it works with my T-Mobile SIM. Had to update the APN, but so far no issues with Texts, Calls, or MMS.
The only feature not working so far is the Tethering/Hotspot.

What you want to do is, unlock it first, then flash it with Motorola 4.4.x AWSRetail version, this can be done via fastboot, no need to unlock bootloader, once done reboot it and it should prompt you to install latest version. That is all. You are set. You can also convert to GPE, but you'll lose the 1700aws support, thus losing hspa on T-Mobile

Carrier unlock Boost Moto G (XT1031)

Hello,
Is there a way to carrier unlock the Moto G XT1031 on 4.4.4 from BoostMobile? I bought it certified pre-owned and I want to use it on TracFone. I read a few posts on the Internet that say that say unlocking the phone won't work past 1/15/2015... is this still the case on pre-owned devices? Or just for new devices bought after that date?
I'm a huge noob at this. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Well you don't carrier unlock cdma phones you flash them to another carrier. As for moto g on any thing else but boost sorry it is a no go. Unless like the lg g2 it is possible to say take a rom from vzw and put it on the boost variant and make it a verizon. The lg g2 sprint can be carrier unlocked by flashing a tmobile rom that has been modded. Found that out here on xda and did it.

You cannot sadly. You MUST use a att sim or flash a custom rom. There's no way around it unfortunately. If it was available I'd have it in my guide to flash but it's not.
