DEVS: Unlockable Boatloader? - Droid X General

Has any dev checked if DX boatloader is unlockable with the GB update through fastboot? I come from the Atrix forums...and it appears 2.3.3 ota update for the Atrix will unlock the boatloader through fastboot. I just wanted to give a heads up to my fellow Moto peeps

Hope it's true!

The dx bootloader remained 30.04 after the latest update. I would imagine if it were made unlockable, we would have seen a version change.

maybe we will get a small update coming soon that will unlock it!

There will be a way sooner or later.

Hopefully you guys get it soon...Atrix community is all smiles right now. When the OTA arrives us Atrix owners will soon find out

Hold up, Moto sent a message out this morning, but it still isn't actually rolling out just yet. Batches will start by the end of today.
EPIC fail again for Telstra Atrix by Motorola Australia.

I have already flash 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-20-release-keys-signed-Telstra-AU.sbf , do I still need this OTA update? or they are the same?
Can anyone tell me that can I flash ANY rom (eg: at&t , ME860 etc ) or only bell and telstra ROM only after a unlocked boot loader + CWM? I m not sure cos I just got my telstra MB860 yesterday.
Telsra has nothing to do with rolling out the OTA. It's now Motorola that is responsible for updating. Check the Motorola website and they still haven't got the ATRIX listed for ant updates yet. Try your phones settings update and there isn't anything else either.

I flashed the gingerbread sbf that was posted here a few days ago. It's less than impressive. I was considering rolling back to 2.2 but decided to give CM7 beta a crack and so far so good. The phone is like a rocketship now!
Is the bootloader open?
Thanks
I have the new Telstra update installed and would be willing to help find out. If someone could leave instructions in this thread, I'll have a crack at it in the morning.
Loaded gingerbread last night via WIFI and it took 2hrs to download. But everything is running really well now.

Update ! Fail
Hey Guys,
Attempted update numerous times. Failed every time.
Was rooted, but have unrooted.
I don't think there's anything that should stop it from updating to GB.
Any suggestions on a fix?
Anyone else find it crazy that Telstra finally gets its butt into gear just before ICS?
Rooted the new update with the application found here.
bootloader unlocked?
Anyone else not get their bootloader unlocked with the 2.3 update? I had to manually unlock mine, but in the end it was fairly easy using the guides on here.
Just that i heard/read that the bootloader was supposed to be unlocked with the 2.3 update, so thought i would ask.

No it was still locked. The Telstra update sbf was more a service sbf than a complete upgrade/wipe (I tested this by flashing the sbf with RSD lite, over the air as well as the Moto Updater - results all the same) - as in you dont lose any of your settings or apps, just updated the OS but doesnt do anything else.

and this to unlock bootloader:

you can tell if you are unlocked, as when you turn on the phone, it says "unlocked" in the top left. cant miss it.

Hey guys I'm on Ics but I used to be in att 2.3.3 but this morning I got a text from att saying

I got it too, but Im on 4.0.3 KA13 at the moment. I thought AT&T was on 2.3.4 already so it must be a different 2.3.4 firmware like .62 maybe. I would like to know what FW it is also. But I don't feel like contacting AT&T right now.

I just called at&t to get official info about this. They said it was build 3.0.1.B.0.285, which has been out since April. They could not tell me why they sent out a sms about it being a "CRITICAL UPDATE". I recommend NOT getting this update as it will remove root access and as far as I know there is currently no way to root .285.

It is indeed build 3.0.1.B.0.285. I was rooted before I ran the update, and I did not loose root access afterwords. Whether or not you can root after you update if you are not already rooted I do not know.
If you OTA the update you can keep root, but if you use pc companion you will loose root. OTA would not work for me so I had to use PCC, lost root, then had to flash back to .270. Sorry, I should have specified about OTA vs PCC.

You can't do OTA if you are "bootloader unlocked. And about critical-"It's *critical* that AT&T and Verizon come out of the stone age!! We are almost on Jelly Bean.lmao. They just push these out to catch one of us with unlocked bootloaders slipping to force us to buy a new phone.

Funny you mention that:
"We are moving directly to 4.4. I dont like to discuss timing. It just puts a lot of stress on the team, and there is always a chance we find something which delays us a bit.
Rest assured, we are on it. You have seen the speed with which we are moving as a Google company, that shall continue."
- Punit Soni, https://plus.google.com/+PunitSoni/posts/LAKKMnEE6CQ , scroll way down (or just Ctrl-F a phrase from that quote)
I'm just looking forward to all the awesome things we have in store; just got my MotoX yesterday and got it activated today; less than 12 hours with an activated and working phone, and I love everything it does already. Getting 4.4 is just icing on the cake for me.
Don't get me wrong.. I'm equally impatient lol... But then again, the Moto X runs amazingly on 4.2.2 already

The bootloader does not have to be relocked! just make sure that you flash back to stock format including your recovery. And you'll be able to take any and all updates. After you update to Kit Kat you should be able to flash superuser zip in CWM or TWRP. To gain Root.

OK that makes sense, I can always restore back to stock then.
I'm keeping my hopes high and my expectations low. I still remember the Atrix after all. New Motorola or not, even if they plan to ship out 4.4 quickly, there is still the carrier issue. I'll believe it when the soak invites go out.

I kept telling all you guys that Motorola was skipping 4.3 and going directly for kit Kat now its come to fruition. You're welcome
Hi,
I have my moto x with the last OTA, i kept root with a tuto that's here.
I want to flash the stock firmware with rsd, my question is if it will take it as downgrade.
I want to wait for KitKat un-rooted.
Thanks

I flashed lolipop in my xt1068, then i reverted back to stock. In this process my unlocked bootloader warning is gone but bootloader is still unlocked. I don't want to flash the stock back right away If i get ota update its good butt if i won't there is xda always for me right?
Thanks for your help though
If you're on stock rom+recovery and you're not rooted, you can have your bootloader unlocked, you will still get the official update.

I am carrying a XT1063, right out of the box, unmodified, as virgin as it could be and still NO Lolipop update 'til now and I keep patiently waiting.
The executive team should have cared for us more than worrying about rooted ones.
As usual chat support doesn't know diddly, because I received all the lollipop OTAs while being rooted.
You just can't install them while rooted though. So revert to your pre-root backup (YOU BACKED UP YOUR /SYSTEM BEFORE ROOTING, RIGHT??!??) and then install the OTA.

HA HA HA! Great LAME joke by historical JOKERS! I have longtime rage on this company due to past bad experiences with this company. They did good by allowing easy and official unlock procedure.
But here you missed the GOLDEN CHANCE TO HUMILIATE them! I would have typed this, >>>> "LIKE WE DO CARE? HA HA HA! Look MotoJokers, if update comes to one UnRooted/Locked phone, it will be on all Rooted/UnLocked Phones within few hours! Go ahead and prove yourself loser. BTW I am on Brazil Lollipop 5.0.1"
LITERALLY! I would have literally said that. You really missed This happened in past and still no one worried.

Thats not always true. The update installer can easily trace the status of UNLOCKED bootloader and may refuse to install. Thats mostly possible. So dont just under-estimate. Update procedures can also recognize the rooted phone status and reject to install.
Does not matter if one unlocked/rooted phone gets next update, most people here on xda will have within few hours.
Lol seems like I missed for sure. Anyways I was only trying to gather info so....

In this case it's true, but if you don't beleive me, you can go to motorola owner's forum and ask them.
If people got the OTA's, then some of them will upload it so rooted and/or impatient users can flash them manually right?

Is it fake or true information from moto ??
there is absolutely no news from a single Indian user about receiving the OTA! but since the news about the update was from official website, we could expect it today! o else we have to wait for David to announce the rollout!
It is true information. You can find it on motorola india Twitter handle
They will sell MM updated G3 for now, rest will get OTA later I think.

I am not aware of how different moto g3 is from moto g2 development! but in G2 I could relock the bootloader! actually you can! but note that relocking the bootloader will help you a full proof to get an OTA! but won't give you your warranty back!
BTW! Happy new year 2016 folks!
Locked bootloader not required for OTA update
Locked bootloader is not required for successful OTA update.
It is essential to ensure correct finger print of the system which means unrooted stock firmware, stock recovery. Flashing stock firmware procedure is provided in a different thread. Be careful to flash firmware made for your device.
Any one got update ?
I doubt whether Motorola has started MM roll out or not as no one reported getting update :/
Update has not been arrived yet.
