I just got this phone (coming from an unlocked rooted VZW S5) and I'm pretty bummed out not seeing any root guides for this specific version (I know Verizon rooting is spotty). Can someone point me in the right direction?
Don't think this will happen, all of the devs basically have Pixels.
Nope. Root most likely will not happen.
Spotty is being optimistic...

What about using the Dirty Cow exploit? I've heard it can root almost any Android no sweat.
Has anyone tried Sunshine yet?
I've personally tried Dirty Cow, and I have yet to find a binary that doesnt break my device or not work. I have also tried SunShine, and it does not work.

Honestly, I wouldn't hold my breath with Nougat out... Only possibility to me right now would be hoping that Verizon released unlock codes to Moto like they did for previous X devices... But that won't happen for at least a year.

From what I've read that toggle is only a 2ndary safety toggle. You still have to submit to Motorola to get an unlock code and Verizon has forbidden it.

I read nothing in the bill that prohibits the unlocking of any device manufactured prior to the enactment date of the legislation. Specifically, the bill allows unlocking at the direction of the owner of the device:
(c) Unlocking at Direction of Owner.--Circumvention of a
technological measure that restricts wireless telephone handsets or
other wireless devices from connecting to a wireless telecommunications
network--
(1)(A) as authorized by paragraph (3) of section 201.40(b)
of title 37, Code of Federal Regulations, as made effective by
subsection (a); and
(B) as may be extended to other wireless devices pursuant
to a determination in the rulemaking conducted under subsection
(b); or
(2) as authorized by an exemption adopted by the Librarian
of Congress pursuant to a determination made on or after the
date of enactment of this Act under section 1201(a)(1)(C) of
title 17, United States Code,
may be initiated by the owner of any such handset or other device, by
another person at the direction of the owner, or by a provider of a
commercial mobile radio service or a commercial mobile data service at
the direction of such owner or other person, solely in order to enable
such owner or a family member of such owner to connect to a wireless
telecommunications network, when such connection is authorized by the
operator of such network.

I hear you. The only reason I used custom roms was because Verizon had not yet pushed the 4.4.4 ota and now that they have and I have it I have no need for customs roms. Actually I find the 4.4.4 update to be quite a surprise. The camera is much improved imo and the rom seems to be a bit more quicker than before. All-in-all I am glad I reverted back to stock rom and I plan on staying with stock.
P.S. To my understanding Android L is coming later this year to the moto G.
I have a Droid Maxx, and Razr Maxx HD and perhaps some beer cash for the answer to root...
I was thinking flashing twrp, then let it root, or am i way off or require an unlocked bootloader? I tried sunshine, but no go as it requires root.
So if i understand, you can get root without an unlocked bootloader, or is an unlocked bootloader a prerequisite of root? I am thinking not, but i am a Windows/SharePoint guy and pretty dumb to linux...

You need an unlocked bootloader to flash TWRP (which flashes SuperSU). There is no known root method available yet because the phone has only been out for about 8 hours.
The Sunshine team has apparently said they will not be supporting Motorola devices for 4.4.4 in their 3.0 release, only HTC, so unlikely it will work there.

Didn't work for me. Too be safe I used a virtual machine with a snap shot taken before installing so I can revert back without the risk of spyware. Also tried Kingo but no luck with either.
---------- Post added at 06:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:20 AM ----------
Also vroot during the root attempt installs 2 apps on your phone and who knows what it installs on Windows without running a regmon, if you do decide to try it make sure you uninstall the 2 chinese apps when your done trying. Also like I mentioned above I would highly not to install vroot or Kingo on your daily driver windows machine. Leave the testing to people who have virtual machines they can install these apps on.
I have used vroot and kingo in the past to successfully root so I know they do/can work, they just haven't been updated yet to work on the Droid Turbo. Hopefully they will.

I keep checking the other Moto forums for root options. I'm banking on anything that will root a Moto 4.4.4 phone will work on ours. The Moto G 4.4.4 update has a later build date than our version.
It appears that real soon we may have root for locked bootloader devices running Lollipop.

One thing has nothing to do with the other.
Lollipop requires some changes to have root access and that was only possible with a modified kernel.
Now Chainfire managed to root the Lollipop without a custom kernel.
But installing ZIP file of root need a custom recovery , so still need to have the device with unlocked bootloader .
I've done the root Lollipop using this new root method of Chainfire.

Hmmm interesting.
Then the process should be with CF-Auto-Root .
I used one of those before when I first root in Lollipop.
But thought the command "mfastboot boot cf-auto-root.img" only work with unlocked bootloader and not the locked too.
Amazing.

OF course
This revelation means that Android 5.0 users*no longer need to run a modified kernel to gain root access via SuperSU (or other root solutions). While not a huge problem on Nexus devices with unlockable bootloaders, the need for ramdisk modifications was concerning for many users of bootloader-locked devices for which no unlock is available (yes, they do unfortunately exist). The answer to their prayers is now here, and we can present an exclusive explanation of the changes needed. At least for now (until/unless Google patch this), it is possible to gain root access and then install and use SuperSU on a stock Android 5.0 device, without any kernel ramdisk tweaking. The reason for this is the need for SuperSU to run a service as root, to allow for unconstrained root access on SELinux-protected devices.

Looks like there's a new vulnerability that is able to achieve root through a couple security holes.
Ran the Quadroot scanner app on my galaxy s7 edge PD8 and it does show its vulnerable to this.

Would it be possible for Devs to purposely download the malicious malware and make a working towelroot like root method for our devices?

If you really thought that they were going to unlock the bootloader for us then I'm the prince of Nigeria and I would like your e-mail address.

On an unrelated note, I damn near lost my **** at what you said...I originally came here from the Verizon S7E forums to see if you guys made any discoveries.
All I can say is that I may not have found anything useful in terms of progress for our devices. But I still leave satisfied. Thank you sir, thank you very much.

very encouraging! please inform us if you any good news!:fingers-crossed:
I'm just wondering because I see a big bounty for it on here, and no links to it, but a quick google search popped this up and I'm reluctant to try it until it's been confirmed..
Thanks..

Looks like they are just prepared for when we can unlock the Sprint bootloader. The link they have there takes you to the TMobile directions to unlock bootloader, which unfortunately doesn't work.

So is this link false hope or mis leading info for rooting the sprint version. Seeing that you said its for the tmobile verison to get the root .?

This link is premature clickbait.
The only devices with unlockable bootloaders are TMo and US996. All others are presently unrooted, although the community such as it is, is working on it.
