I really want to root my Moto G but I don't own a computer and can't get access to one! Can it be done without a computer? Can somebody explain to me how to do it? Thanks.

Currently you simply can't.. You need to unlock the boot loader via Motorola website

I just tried to unlock the bootloader but it said my phone doesn't qualify for bootloader unlocking! So looks like I'm not able to root my Moto G after all!

hey guys
i tried to unlock bootloader via motorola web site but it says my device does not qualify for unlocking
tried flashing recoveries, root zips and updated to official kitkat, but still does not work
phoned motorola support and they said motorola doesn't guarantee bootloaded getting unlocked, it depends on luck
any suggestion?
Moto XT1033 Dual 16gb BR
I had this problem too, but I checked all individuals characters of my code and deleted some spaces between them... After that check up everything worked like a charm !

If problem persists go to Motorola Customer Forum.
Read this.
I bought a boost mobile (USA) moto G yesterday. After I followed every step on moto site, it gives the error
Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking
What does this mean? Boostmobile device cannot be unlocked, therefore rooted?
please help!
TIA
I got same message but didn't care and pressed the button for unlock code!
My XT1033 is now unlocked and rooted.
That's right...
For now there isn't a way and there are no developers here working on it...
And there's no button on the site after the msg... Your device was probably eligible...

I don't understand. I don't even see the unlock button ...
There isn't one if you're not eligible...

hey guys i just bought my indian version of moto g and yeah i too had this problem!! but i resolved it now my bootloader is unlocked. the site is a perfect working unlocker but the thing is u may have signed into motorola device id option under settings menu. go there unlink ur account and try in the site again. the signing in from device disallows this unlocking thing. but if u unlink the account i am sure u can unlock ur bootloader!!
I signed in with the google account on the device and it worked. :fingers-crossed:
That worked.

Nothing!
Just sit and wait... Hopefully a developer will find an exploit allowing us at least to root it (Like they did on the Moto X)... Or not... I am quite
The Motorola support forums has a thread up dealing with the issue.
Maybe try there.

I don't think any developer is trying to find an exploit...if its easily unlockable....they don't need to find one
Well, I've tried everything... I even disabled the Motorola apps on my device and I keep getting the message that my phone is not eligible...
Tried with different email accounts on the site and still nothing...
It is supposed to be easy if they allowed it... This is my sixth android device and the first which I couldn't unlock the bootloader...
And I know that my case isn't the only one... I'll try the forums to see if I get anything different...

Update:
After going through their forum, they instructed peaople tto send them an email with the fastboot oem get_unlock_data and the fastboot getvar all, as they are constantly having probles with the system... Just did that and will post if I get anything...
It took about 2 days after I got my Moto G for it to let me unlock it. Then, without me doing anything different it worked

Bit of background...I've had Android phones since the OG Droid. All of them were rooted. The phone I have now is the Razr HD which I've never rooted. Guess I just got out of the game for a while. I want to root it now but unfortunately, it's been so long since I've been around the forums that I don't really know what anything is anymore or what does what.
I'm sure this has been asked before but every search I do, I come up with stuff that I don't understand. Can someone help out?
Phone is running 4.4.2
System version: 183.46.15.XT926
Thanks!
If your boot loader is locked, you can't do anything.

Abstract: you wanna root your Motorola Razr HD (xt925) ?
You can't go anymore with the "gentle procedure" - which is using Motochopper, a way to root the 4.1.2 without tearing apart your phone.
So either you go back with a stock 4.1.2 and live happily with motochopper and a slow sys, or you follow Motorola instructions to unlock the phone. Be aware that once you enter the code Motorola will provide you'll void your warranty (if you still are under the grace period).

You need to stop putting bad info out there, this unlock only works on the 925. The system version he shows is FW for the 926. You can't unlock the 926 via Moto.

Isn't the Razr HD the xt925?
Or am I getting confused with all those names?
Edit: ah yeah, sorry, I've read only "RAZR HD", and I din't pay attention to sysver. My bad.

The 925 is the GSM variant and is unlockable through Moto. The 926 is the CDMA model that is typically used on Verizon and it's not unlockable through Moto.

Hi, RikRong. I'm also new to this XT926 and on the latest firmware I guess (183.46.15.xt926), is there's any new way to unlock bootloader and root this device? I read an old instruction in another post and just bought this device and now I'm so screwed over .

Unfortunately, right now there is no way to root or unlock that build.

Is this still the case? My phone was auto-upgraded to 4.4.2... I'm stuck?

Unfortunately there just aren't a whole lot of this version of there so nobody really devotes any real time or resources to finding root for it.
