This is basically what I'm wanting to do. I don't care about custom roms or anything. I don't even care if I have trwp. All I want is root and xposed on MM moto x pure 1575. Is it possible?
I don't want to unlock the BL as I want to keep the warranty.

bootloader unlock
At the moment you can not unlock the bootloader... you can root it...and from the reading up on it I did it doesn't look like the unlock will come soon either... I went through the same thing I feel for you ... best of luck...

Hmm...
So is it just the RAZR M XT907 that got this update? Or did the XT926 get the same thing? My thread I linked was for both, though I only had an XT926 to play with but as with all phones I unlock for customers I check for the most recent updates on the phone and I wasnt notified of any. I'm leaving the thread up because its useful to those who haven't taken it for the XT907, but could it go void because of the inability to downgrade the bootloader yet?

yes, you can reroot. since your bootloader is already unlocked, I'm assuming you have a custom recovery installed (TWRP or CWM)? if so, then you can flash supersu (search for it on XDA) via recovery.

not sure. read through that entire thread first (took me 3 or 4 full reads before I got the gist of it).
I recently rooted and want to install custom ROMs, meaning I need to flash a Custom recovery, meaning I need to unlock my bootloader.
How do I go about doing this?

So even in the international versions the bootloader cannot be unlocked? I thought it was only the US versions where the bootloaders would be locked down.
Can custom ROMs not be flashed through ODIN? I really just want to get away from TouchWiz.
Edit: Am I correct in assuming that you dont get OTA updates while rooted? If so how would it be possible to update the OS if I cannot flash ROMs?
Are you on the enxyos version?

We wouldn't know for sure. You have a different processor and different firmware to include an unlockable firmware.
You're posting in a SPRINT forum where almost all members don't have an unlockable bootloader therefor don't have any experience achieving what you're seeking.
Thus, you'd be better off posting your inquiry in a thread for your device, not ours.
But your bootloader should already be unlocked.
Just flash the TWRP recovery just like you did when you rooted. Shouldn't be that difficult.
Does this means that "Link2SD" can't be fully used on S7 (G935F)?
because I get the infamous "/data/sdext2 mount not found" error and for what i have googled, is because of a protected /system folder...
Am i right?

Has a way been found yet?
Please excuse me if this has already been asked but since I'm new to the mxp I wanted to know if I can root this phone using king root or if this is not a good tool to use? Thank you for any suggestions.

Nope... Unless you want a brick. None of the one-click methods will work and there have been instances of bricking.
Rooting is only possible by unlocking the bootloader and flashing a systemless root (SuperSU) manually with TWRP.

Dumb question but do you know if there is anyway to root and unlock from the phone itself? Don't have a computer is why I ask.

How can i re lock the Bootloader?
You will have to reflash stock firmware. That does an OEM lock which restores it to what it was like when it came packaged.

Did you realized that there's a "Guides" section within this forum? There you find guides, like this one for example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-newbie-resource-thread-t3386584
But, i think if once we have updated to soak test android 7. Then we cannot relock bootloader by going down to mm? If we can then how?

We have root, and with root we can use flashfire to flash things, i.e ROMs, Xposed.

I'm glad someone else said something. I've been trying to find a way to port over a custom ROM I use on a tablet. At least I now know we can do that with this device.
