I have the same problem
hopefully someone is going to help us
I have heard it mentioned that you can temporarily root the ATT/AIO/Cricket XT1045 on Android 4.4.4, but not permanently (yet). I have no idea how, though.
Can someone help us out?
I had an hour or so long talk with an AT&T employee who actually knew what they were talking about. I believe due to restrictions in ATT tech chat, he was unable to post either links or straight out tell me how to do it, but he said that it is very possible.
Perhaps people should try logging into their AT&T account and using the tech chat to see what someone can come up with.
Has any progress been made on this? I have XT1045 from Cricket Wireless (owned by AT&T) and the bootloader is not unlockable using the conventional method.

OK. Here I go. Sorry I'm kind of new to XDA. I too have a xt1045 and I just unlocked the boot loader and I too am on ATT.
I bought my phone from Motorola unlocked, idk if ATT or cricket or whatever carrier sells them unlocked too. That may affect bootloader unlocking since you may need an unlocked device to see unlock boot loader.
Now down to the bootloader code.
Make sure you are copying the code correctly from the command prompt. I think the first time I tried to unlock bootloader, I may have copied wrong or something like that. Also, I have heard reports of people retrying, have their devices verified, and getting a code to unlock bootloader. Hopefully that is the case for you guys and unlocking is a viable option.
Hope I helped
Feel free to ask me question about unlocking the bootloader.
I haven't rooted yet and I am getting ready for that.
FYI: you we're able to unlocked your bootloader only because you purchased your device directly from Motorola. The rest of us who purchased from a carrier are F*CKED.

Yeah except i was only replying to him saying if you got your moto G from a carrier it's locked always your f**ked , and that aint so ..
And I didn't say carrier unlocked uh I got it from a carrier new , so yeah soon as I opened the box and entered bootloader it said unlocked yes and no warning screen upon boot either saying this device has been unlocked .
For you guys with At&T-XT1045 or any try this k , Lemme know if it worked
1.) Unlink your Device from motorola ID which means dont be signed in from your device in settings menu -unlink it & don't log in with your google account neithaa dawg.
2.) Unlink from motorola site if needed if option is there
3.) Sign into website and drag the entire policy bar to the bottom (like you read it in entirety) click I agree and check for key eligibility again
4.) Try again with IE 11 if you haven't used it already
5.) recheck your string letter for freakin letter removes all spaces make sure you include # signs try one more time.. There are 4-5 spaces when you just copy/paste the string so paste the code into notepad with any extra spaces deleted please.
See here from about 3:00 on -->> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjsO7t5ulhw
6.) If all that failed spend $25 get http://theroot.ninja/ ( for only 5.01 or lower - doesn't work on 5.02 I heard)
7.) If all else has failed head to thee motorala-forumwhere they are informing moto G owners to send email with their fastboot oem get_unlock_data + fastboot getvar al, and they should be able to accomodate you..
8.) Proceed to adb Sideload or Flash This Total Sauciness Either Way Moto G 2014 Owners

Does not work for me, i have Moto G 4G XT1045 from ATT.
Anyone tried to Flash another firmware? i will try that i'll bring news here, hope my IMEI don't desappear :/
Grettings!
If you are new to Motorola this will be good news, you will be able to unlock your bootloader day one if you have the pure edition (maybe even the style will be available but this would depend on your carrier). The process is almost identical to the HTC unlock bootloader method.
Few things to note:
-This will probably void your warranty. User @nikeman513 has reported his warranty says void on the Motorola website after unlocking his bootloader. But Motorola says it was a mistake and it will not void your bootloader. Confusing but it looks like we can unlock without losing warranty. Still unlock at your risk
-This has been tested by @Aftashok and others and confirmed to work on the Pure Edition (Style has not been tested).
-Lastly I am not responsible for any issues you may find during the process, this is informational only and do it at your own risk.
NOTE: Keep in mind this will factory wipe your phone and you will have to set it up again.
Before you start go into settings ->about phone -> software info and rapid click the build number until you enable developer options. After that go into developer options and enable "oem unlock". Now you are ready to continue.
1. Install Motorola Driver
2. Download ADB (or google it if you want the pure tool and not a toolkit)
3. Power off your device (keep it unplugged from the PC at this point)
4. Power device back on while holding volume down and the power button for 5 seconds
5. Once you see the bootloader screen plug in your device to the PC
6. Navigate to the location where your ADB is installed in file explorer and hold the shift key and right click. Select "Open command window here"
7. Type "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" in command prompt
8. Copy the code that is shown and paste it in notepad (I always right click on the top of the window and click Edit->Mark then highlight the code and right click on the top again and do Edit->copy)
9. Go to Motorla's page and login/create an account.
10. Paste code and click "Can my device be unlocked"
11. Agree to terms and click "Request Unlock Key" this will send you an email
12. Once you get the email with your unlock code paste the following in command prompt "fastboot oem unlock YOURKEY" (no "'s and replace YOURKEY with the key they emailed you)
13. Now you have an unlocked bootloader and are ready to flash a custom recovery when it is ready.
(this is simply informative, this process is tried and true and the method Motorola set up for an unlock, I take no credit for any of this)
So the phone comes out of the box in "locked" mode then?

This is for the bootloader which is different than a carrier unlock.
Out of the box you will be able to activate this phone on any carrier.
If you wish to flash kernels, recoveries, etc then an unlocked bootloader is required.
Great man Thanks, Just way for mi device

It has to be, the play and the G are unlockable there is no logical reason why this pure edition wont be.
That really depends. Sometimes you can do this and have no issues relocking. Assuming there isn't a counter and you can at least get the phone to power up. If they have some kind of counter then yes, its probably a bad idea.
Frankly I don't care for such insurance plans. Unless you're super accident prone. I've cracked exactly one screen in all the devices I've had and it was still usable. Hell its still a backup phone if my current one goes tits up. Then again I'm also not afraid to get in there and replace a screen on my own making $75 up front much less attractive. Would take two breaks to pay for itself. Buddy of mine dropped his S6 the day he got it while sitting on the crapper at best buy. Screen went buh bye. YMMV

Did you order it from motorola directly? Was it unlocked? You may want to head over to the moto g forums for assistance. I will remove that note from the OP if it does not work but the Moto X Play works for sure. This pure edition should work and we will confirm it in a couple of days as the devices arrive.

Yes, unlocked direct from Moto Maker. I can check over in the forums but when I pasted the output into Moto's site it said that bootloader unlocking was not supported on the device.
I'll try again later.

So I wonder if it'll be the same as unlocked a Nexus? Just enable OEM Unlock in Developer Settings and fastboot oem unlock.
Either way mine will be unlocked the day it arrives!

Yeah same with HTC they say they "may" void your warranty but you still have a chance for them to service your device if needed. I'm not worried. Flash power is worth it
I bought a Moto G 7 from T-Mobile 5 months ago, but now I'm travelling abroad and can't use any local sim card because its sim locked and T-Mobile's won't unlock it for me. Is there any way to bypass that application?
When I insert the new sim card I get a screen saying that I can unlock it remotely (it is denied on that app). All I need to how to type the code to unlock it.

Hello. I`ll use this thread because of I have same issue. I flashed my metropcs with retail firmware and now it prompts me for code. Is it possible to be unlocked in that way?
So, just an update: I managed to replace the moto g power os, so now I have it debranded but it keeps asking for a code to unlock the sim card. I bought the Pantech UCC 2.0 (which was supposed to generate the code) but it didn't work. So now I'm looking for something to generate that code
If anyone got any tool or device that generates that for the moto g 7 power please let me know.

I mean I`m not sure that it is possible this phone to be unlocked by code since originally it is implemented to be unlocked by app.
I do believe it is possible since its the same screen I've seen on so many other apps. The unlock app was a mod Tmobile delivered with the version of the android operating system. When I replaced it, it went back to the default screen, so all I need now is a way to generate that code, it seems

If the previous owner possibly still owes money on it then you can't unlock the bootloader. You'd have to get the unlock app from TMO and they'd have to authorize it to make it unlockable bootloader, which TMO won't do if there's money owed on it.
You should be able to unlock it. The exception is if the previous owner relocked the bootloader. In that case, the bootloader cannot be reunlocked.

I am also having a problem. This seems to be a problem with their website. I tried different browers, computers, and connections. Get that error every time after submitting the device key.

I am having the same error with my Motorola G Stylus 2020 it has to be with their websites ive tried different browsers, computers, they need to solve this issue!!!

I tried all methods that involve the motorola website I found on the forum but none work. I contacted motorola support, I'll keep you posted if I find anything.
Same here. I called and finally got level 2 support which said they couldn't help. They sent me to the motorola forums where I've asked about it. Will post if I get a reply as well.

I asked support and they told me the site was down and should be up in a few day. I re-tried now and it worked. I got my code. But the OEM unlock option in the developer settings is still grayed out. Apparently I have to wait which is stupid, I'm very close to just return the phone.

Yep. i did it just now and the site seems to be working again
confirmed working again
Ok, for reference, as there are some different things scattered alongside the forum.
I have a G100, german model (I'm in switzerland, but it's considered german).
What I had to do:
- go here <https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a>
- contrary to what customer service told me, the global portal works, even with a german model
- the website was down, but it's up now, if it's down for you, I guess you'll have to try again, customer support did not help me
- BUT, to be able to use the unlock code with `fastboot oem unlock <code>` you need first to activate "OEM unlock" in the Developer settings.
- To access this settings, you need to activate the phone. Some says it works on wifi, but I used LTE for the initial setup, just to be sure. After the setup, I did a few calls, I don't know if this is significant, but the first call took like 5 minutes to connect (I say this because you might be tempted to turn the phone off right after the activation). I applied all the updates, left my phone on my desk, and after 72h this settings was accessible (not grayed).
- After toggling the setting, you can use `fastboot oem unlock` and proceed with lineage installation
I just successfully bootloader unlocked a Moto G 5G (2022) using the website. It took them about five minutes to email me the unlock code after I submitted the string on the website.
Keep in mind that you are referencing two different things: network locks, and bootloader locks. The device may have a clean IMEI and be network unlocked (you can use any carriers SIM in the SIM tray). This doesn't necessarily mean that the bootloader can be unlocked for purposes of flashing custom ROMS. You'll need a phone that is both network unlocked and has an unlockable bootloader.
that's why wiko is better........
I'm having the same issue but with my xt2131-1 model. I received the unique code via email and it says failed to validate code.
Greetings, so I recently upgraded my phone to oxygenos12 and it came with a lot of glitches and I hate it. Try to flash back oxygen11 and realised the bootloader is locked. So I tried downloading back the unlock token for the phone from my email and the oneplus token page keeps coming up blank with no token download. I saw you have to be logged in to download it and I did the same and I get the same blank page. what's really going on here? I really need oxygen11 back since this 12 here isn't supporting my two sim cards and my cellular data isn't working!!!!
OnePlus page must be down. I’ve been trying to get on there for the last 12 hours.
I have been trying this too,, it's coming blank.. like what's happening here I just get my new phone which is t mobile varient
Website is still down for me. I contacted OnePlus and they went on the routine of trying to make me fill out for another unlocking token and telling me it’s 7 days blah blah blah. They weren’t getting the fact that their website is broken. Finally after 30 different screen shots and copied links they finally understood. Hopefully the IT team can get the page back up asap
Still blank for me. Just my luck... I've been putting off rooting my oneplus 6t for so many years and finally decided to do it...

Hi you shouldn't need a token to unlock bootloader for OnePlus devices.
You should also have OEM unlock enabled in developer options.

Not sure how long it will take to restore service?
also blank here (NE USA). since 08/11/2022
i tried with a foreign vpn and instead of a blank page i received a oneplus custom 404 error
if you inspect the code of the unlock_token page. all the code looks like it's there

this is inncorrect for the TMOBILE variant. FOR TMOBILE ONLY.... the oem unlock option is only so you can retrieve the unlock code. once you receive the token you will be able to flash it and fully unlock the phone.

I still haven't been able to get on the site. It's still broken here for me. I talked to chat support multiple times and it takes some convincing that the site is actually broken. Then I send them links and screenshots and they say they will send it over to IT.. but is been almost a week and nothing has been fixed... I asked them it they could send me my unlock token file in a email and no response lol
This is my first experience with one plus and it's not so good the phone is good but the tech support sucks nobody seems to know anything about why the page is broken or when it will be fixed or for that matter any way to deal with this token crap.
Looks like OnePlus doesn’t give a ****.this is ridiculous
I just got done with chat support was able to drag some info out apparently the support department has only received a communication from the team handling the token page issue with please give more time. I have a feeling that they have no idea what's going on and have a complete communication breakdown so who knows how long this is gonna take. I only received the generic answer of please give another 24hrs for a response "I won't hold my breath" in the meantime dose anyone know a bypass for getting around this token nonsense?

I just got done with chat support was able to drag some info out apparently the support department has only received a communication from the team handling the token page issue with please give more time. I have a feeling that they have no idea what's going on and have a complete communication breakdown so who knows how long this is gonna take. I only received the generic answer of please give another 24hrs for a response "I won't hold my breath" in the meantime dose anyone know a bypass for getting around this token nonsense?

There is no way. I've been looking everywhere and there is nothing that says how to bypass it. If this doesn't get fixed tomorrow, I'm sending phone back and not getting a t-mobile variant ever.

Technically it is the T-Mobile software that's triggering that. If you convert it to global or EU, you don't need it, but you get stuck having to have root to get data working (software thinks the phone is dual SIM and it breaks it). Also, if your device is SIM locked, it's stuck that way unless you flash back to T-Mobile firmware to unlock it.

Well what your saying is not possible because in order to flash firmware, you need to have the bootloader unlocked so NO!!!

Nope, just an MSM Tool that can flash a T-Mobile variant. I don't know if one exists for the 9 but there is one for the 9 Pro that you can use to get to EU software and then use the global 9 downgrade package to get back to proper 9 firmware.
Convert your T-Mobile (LE2127) to EU via MSM, No unlock.bin needed!
*** Use this at your very own risk. *** You will lose all data *** Backup your working modemst1/2 and persist. If you lose these for any reason, it's unique to your device and not recoverable if you didn't back up (via MSM or other people). ***...
