[Q] Help Unlocking Boost Mobile Moto G - General Questions and Answers

I'm sort of a noob, but I can't seem to get the boot loader unlocked on my new boost mobile moto g which I'm going to have flashed for Page Plus. I followed the tutorials on XDA threads and the motorola page, which specify to fastboot and get an unlock key, which can be used to unlock the phone easily. I got the code just fine, and copied it in as directed, but I get an error message.
The first:
"PUID not found in your identifier, please try again"
followed immediately by:
'your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking"
It seems like other people have had success with this method of unlocking. Can anyone give any suggestions as to how to proceed from here?
Thanks in advance.

Login to Motorola support and email them, they can help. Apparently they have issues with the system. Others have had the same problem.

[Q] AIO Wireless Moto G Bootloader Unlock Issues - Resolution?

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

[Q] Problems with relocking bootloader

No matter what i do, i always get this error on cmd "sst lock failure" and in device "failed to validate system image". I downloaded firmware from google using my version of moto g KXB20.9-1.8-1.4. I really need to get this to work, so i hope someone can help me.

[Q] Root & Bootloader unlock

Ok, I am new to this forum so please excuse me if I posted this incorrectly or if there might be another thread similar! (I tired searching but could not find anything so please don't scorn me )
So this is my problem...
I have the Moto G 2013 Verizon Non-Dev (XT1028) that I am sick and tired of seeing "lollipop will be coming soon!" But it being a non-dev edition it does not qualify for Motorola's Official Bootloader Unlock. I searched everywhere on YouTube (yeah, yeah, not the reliable...) and Google on how to root and bootloader unlock but none of those things have helped me. Let me cut to the chase!
Basically I am on 4.4.4
~~~Rooting~~~
It requires my bootloader to be unlocked
~~~Unlocking Bootloader (unofficially)~~~
Using Sunshine~
"Your device has to be rooted in order to check for compatibility. " (not the exact message but the gist is I cant unlock because I don't have root)
So with those two being in mind are there anyways to bypass one or the other? I'm stuck in an infinite loop between being able to root requires a bootloader unlock and the bootloader unlock requires a root to do... Any known ways to root 4.4.4 without bootloader unlock OR unlock my bootloader officially or unofficially?
P.S. This is my first post as well so I'm not sure if my random babbling helped explain so if any information is needed I can try to provide it! Thanks for any help and suggestions

Help guys !! I can't unlock my bootloader (XT1541)

Hello guys..
I own the XT1541 model, i purchased it about a month ago from amazon.de and i've been wanting to root the phone since i laid my hands on it, after doing a lot of research on rooting, its advantages and risks, I still want to root it anyways.
The problem is that i applied all of the pre-rooting steps for bootloader unlocking such as allowing OEM unlocking and USB debugging and then I booted into recovery mode and performed the "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" command to get a serial number that i inserted into the corresponding box in the requested way and accepted all the terms and conditions but It still gives me an error telling me that my device is not eligible for bootloader unlocking even though i've lots of videos of people unlocking the same model i have and succeeding >.<
Can anyone help me with this ? I've seen a lot of people on XDA succeeding in unlocking the bootloader and rooting the exact same model i have (XT1541)

Same problem here...xt1550..
Hope anybody help..
Help needed asap...cos i want to root my device
Hello there,
You have to register your phone to Motorola ID, otherwise Motorola doesn't give your unlock code. Boot to your normal rom, go to "Settings" and look for something like "Motorola Device ID". I had the exactly same problem.
Cheers
Hi,
I have the same issue, I've tried all advises I've found on net:
1. I have checked multiple times that there are no spaces in string that I pase into motorola web page
2. I have tried using motorla Data Scrub Tool - also no success
3. I've tried Chrome, Firefox and Edge
4. I've tried subscribing & unsubscribing from Moto ID
Nothing worked
my CID is 0x0007 so according to h t t p s://forums.motorola.com/posts/35e4d3be5c?page=52 (sorry, I can't post URLs yet ) it should be unlockable
In the last post I see the motorola is moving to lenovo servers, so I hope this is temporary issue
