How to tell if bootloader is unlocked?

bought a used xt925.
How do I check if my bootloader is unlocked? Is there any way to unlock this device without going through Motorola?

You can check in the AP Fastboot screen. It will say unlocked if the BL is unlocked. You can try the UL exploit, as this is a 925, but I'm not sure it would work. Why not go through Moto?

The most obvious way to know if it's unlocked is whether the phone shows a "Bootloader Unlocked" warning on boot. If that's not shown, @RikRong told the way -- AP Fastboot.

[Q] help with bootloader unlock for HTC one x

I have recently unlocked my sim from at&t Carrier to other Source.. But because i update to 4.2.2 few months back i don't see anyway to unlock boot loader and root phone.. Is there any possible way this can be done? or do i basically have a dumb Smartphone because of At&t's update blocking the last exploit? There has to be some way to make this happen?

You will need to provide more information, including the specific model of Moto G, your current software version, and carrier. Not all versions and combinations will be unlockable.

[Q] Unlocked carrier & unlocked bootloader the same?

I just tried to unlock my bootloader with fastboot but it says the bootloader is already unlocked. It's a brand new phone. It is carrier unlocked, is that the same thing as an unlocked bootloader?

Carrier unlocked typically means that the phone is not locked to one specific mobile network. This means you can use a SIM from the network of your choice, pop it in and use it (excluding Verizon).
Bootloader unlock state shows the state of the bootloader (the software that begins just as you're booting your phone). If your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash factory images and custom ROMs.

Yeah but how can my brand new phone already have a factory unlocked bootloader? Do some Nexus 5 phones ship that way?

They not ship that way. Your phone is not brand new.

Bootloader Unlock Allowed : No

My phone is through Bell (which I bought outright). Without an unlocked bootloader that means I can't flash custom kernals correct? Is there a way to get around this? Why is my phone's bootloader unable to be unlocked but others are? Any help / clarification appreciated.

If it says "Bootloader unlock allowed: no" then there is unfortunately no way to unlock the bootloader so you can't flash a custom kernel or most of the roms!
this can't be changed except you replace the motherboard or buy another one :/

Only workaround is sell that xperia z5 and buy another.
