Unlock Moto G Boost Mobile

Hi I am going to buy the boost mobile moto g. Firstly is it CDMA only. Also can I flash any rom of moto g in it. And lastly how to unlock it so that I can use any GSM/CDMA SIM. I live in another country. And here boost mobile is not present. Plz help
Boost Mobile Moto G is CDMA only. CDMA phones don't take SIM cards, and the only unlock available is bootloader unlock via Motorola's website. If your country doesn't have CDMA carriers, don't buy the Boost Mobile, US Cellular, or Verizon Moto G, unless you plan on using it on Wi-Fi only

Does US cellular have a parent company like boost mobile is part of sprint?

Nope, US Cellular is the network operator, they do service uprepaid and others. Same level as Verizon or T-Mobile.

I got a "free" moto G from Boost Mobile when switched my T-Mobile number. However, I found I couldn't unlock my bootloader. The $40 monthly plan seems too expensive for me. I want to flash it to other service provider.

Thanks. PagePlus is not my best solution. I've got it sold via eBay and made some profit. I am with Sprint with student promotion and just pay for the tax.

Moto G xt1033 Australian SIM Network HELP!

Hi!
I have been trying a few custom android kit kat roms on my Moto G xt1033 and everything works great except the fact that my sim card isnt registered by the device, it has that 4 bar logo in the status bar but has no bars and is just a triangle and in the drop down menu it says no connection. My SIM is an Amaysim but sometimes on phones it will come up as YES OPTUS.
Please help and if anyone in australia/global would know how to fix or has this problem please dont be afraid to help as it is unfortunate for me now that i have to run stock 4.4.2 to have a working sim.
Thanks in advance!

amaysim works on the Optus network, it should show amaysim when updated.
Request a new SIM from amaysim if it's an old one, it's free. You can do it from your amaysim account.

its not that its a problem with the roms themselves like for some reason it doesnt work with them it gets picked up but no data signal but if i put back to stock 4.4.2 it works fine. The xt1033 model that australia only has is a dual sim version. I just want one sim working as i only use one.
i just need something for it to pick up a data signal, it doesnt even know what network to connect to in data settings.
someone else must have this issue.
Please help! :crying:

[Q] Should I buy the dual sim version?

Hey guys,
Should I buying the dual sim version Moto G?
Because there is'nt / not yet any single sim version Moto G here,
I'm considering this:
1) I heard that CM doesn't/not yet support the dual sim smartphone, is that true?
2) Can I use the single sim custom rom on the dual sim version? (It's okay for me even if the custom rom works with only 1 sim card)
3) If I can't install the single sim version custom rom on the dual sim version right now, is there any possibilities that the single sim custom rom will work on the dual sim version someday?
Because I think it's meaningless if I use an android phone, but I can't change anything on it
Any help will be much appreciated,
Thanks

you should buy the dual sim version without worries coz:
1) CM supports the dual sim version fully!
2) most of the single sim custom roms run on the dual sim version. you just have to flash the US stock firmware.
3) you can root it and get xposed to get most of the features custom roms provide and also remove the unwanted apps with root uninstaller if you decide to stay with stock rom.(there is not much bloatware anyway, pretty much stock kitkat)
also we are not talking about any android phone here, its the only phone under $200 with kitkat..
edit: i just realised that this is a very old thread! so u might have already made a decision and cm was not supported at that time...

[Q] ROMs for XT1033 (DUAL Sim Version)?

Hey folks,
So I have a question.. is it that the usual ROMs for Falcon won't work on the XT1033 (Dual Sim) version?
As per my understanding the only thing that could be an issue is the working of the 2nd sim, right? other than that, the ROM should function just fine. So can someone help out with the list of best/most compatible ROMs for XT1033 model?
Here you go..

Read This!
[Read Before Asking Anything About XT1033][Full XT1033 Guide][Roms][Kernels]
Usual ROM wont work on XT1033, and it is not that simple that only thing wont working will be second sim. If you are okay with just one sim, then just convert it into a Google Play Edition.
[XT1033][Mixed-Firmware]Convert Moto G into Google Play Edition(GPe)[NoobFriendly] and then Install usual ROMs for falcon!
I'd recommend C-Rom
Much appreciate the help..

single / dual SIM

Hello everyone. I bought some times ago HTC U12+ and I was convinced that is DUAL SIM. But it isn't. Slot on the left side is for one SIM and SD or 2nd SIM card.
I called to HTC support and I give IMEI for check and answer was "this model is without Dual SIM"
So I have a question. It is possible upgrade firmware (ROM) from phone with DS? It will work? I think but i'm not sure, that phisicaly dual sim slot is, so different is only firmware.
Regards
Chris

Kshychu:
You are only able to update your HTC U12+ with the firmware that it was designed for.
What lead you to believe that it was a Dual SIM model? Do you know what variant you have? The variants all have different MID (Model ID) numbers:
htc_imedugl: 2Q5510000, EMEA/Aisa TW/RUS/SEA India Dual-SIM
htc_imedtwl: 2Q5530000, CHINA, Dual-SIM
htc_imeuhl: 2Q5520000, EMEA/US Unlocked, Single-SIM
Mine, for example is htc_imedugl: 2Q5510000, EMEA/Aisa TW/RUS/SEA India Dual-SIM.
Where did you buy it? Was it a US Unlocked model, or from another country? To my knowledge, the only Single SIM variant is htc_imeuhl: 2Q5520000, EMEA/US Unlocked, Single-SIM.
I also do not believe that the Dual SIM models only work because of different Firmware. There is also Hardware that is at play.
I will say that if you try to run any of the RUU's that do match your phone, the software will fail and give you the proper error code.
