I basically aim for getting rid of the motorola junk from my moto g.
current setup : disabled few motorola apps.. installed google now launcher.
i want to get rid of the rest of the moto apps like motocare etc which cannot be disabled.
suggest me either a way to remove those appilcations or steps on how to convert my dual sim XT1033 Moto G to Google Play Edition.
Addition Questions : 1. if i try to install any XT1032(single sim variant) custom roms on XT1033 what happens?
A) i loose control over both sim networks?
B) i maintain 1 sim and the second sim is invalid.
C) the rom fails to load and phone crashes.
D) something else. happens.
2. If i unlock bootloader from motorola website to root my phone does my warranty get void? if yes, is it possible to lock the bootloader again to get phone back under warranty. also is there any other way of rooting the device without messing with warranties?
Thanks a ton for your help!

The single sim roms don't work on the dual sim models. They might flash okay, but they won't work properly.
Unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty and you need an unlocked bootloader to root the device. Relocking the device won't bring back your warranty because it's done and registered by Motorola. This applies to your region though, maybe not others.
I think the system software is installed differently on the GPE compared to the standard Moto G. There is a thread comparing the /app/ and /app-priv/ of the two devices.
You might not be able to update the phone OTA successfully if the particular update requires certain files to be in place and unmodified. That will probably depend on the update and what it's addressing.
Hi, I was just wondering if this was possible, aside from that temporary root method.
When I do that thing for retrieving an unlock code on the motorola site, it says I'm not eligible to unlock my phone, but there has to be another way, right?
I was just wondering, if there was anybody who had this phone, and who already had theirs unlocked, thanks

Hi! I've just own this device used from verizon with kitkat 4.4.4. And all metods not working for me: I can't unlock bootloader using motorola site, even for now can't find how get temproot (towelrool and moto PIE - nothing happens), and they says that this methods fails on 4.4.4 firmware((. SunShine also not working - it reqires temp root & maybe also didn't work on 4.4.4). So will be waiting... If something happens (also if temproot is possible) - please let me know!!!
P.S. But maybe on locked bootloader & official firmware we get OTA of LoliPop 5.0 soon!!

I have an unlocked bootloader Boost Moto G that I used on page plus for sometime
It recently updated to Lollipop and I did a factory reset to clean it off to use as a WiFi only device. Now I am stuck in the activation process. Any way around this? Thanks!

So I have a Moto G xt1032 locked to one of the carriers here in Canada. I looked up how to unlock it and ended up motorola's official unlocking page for moto g. I followed the instructions and it sent me an unlock key to my email and tried that and it said unlock complete or something like that.
Now when I turn on the phone every time I see a "Warning Bootloader Unlocked" thing on the screen before startup. But when I put in a sim it asks for unlock pin. And yes I checked the sim is compatible with moto g. They even sell these phones at the carrier stores I am with.
So can it be fixed?
I have lollipop 5.0.2 installed on this phone. And I tried a downgrading to kitkat last night and it ended up wiping all my data but didn't downgrade to kitkat. The only thing I noticed on the tutorial that the tutorial was for unlocked xt1032 phones and at the time the phone was locked. So that might have been the problem.
It sounds like you're talking about 2 different locks. Motorola's method unlocks the bootloader so you can install different ROMs and such. AFAIK it has nothing to do with locking the phone to a particular carrier. I'm not sure how SIM locks work; I think you'll have to contact your carrier about that.
