[Q] 183.46.10 unable to unlock bootloader

I have been trying for a better part of a day with no avail. I am hoping that someone would able to point me in the correct direction of what I am trying to do.
I used Towelroot to root the Razr M and installed SuperSU from the Play Store. It is fully rooted from what I can tell, but using the Motopocalypse APK and the Windows application with no success.
Any suggestions?

Can someone please confirm whether it's possible or not to unlock bootloader on this 185.46.10?

That Kernel version update included an unlockable bootloader.

Cannot Unlock Bootloader
No custom Roms

I've already successfully rooted using king root. But just wanted to be sure whether I'll be able to swap rom for cm11. Your post made that clear.

Just Go to settings enable developer options, Enable usb debugging , enable oem unlock <<<< remember to enable all these before going to unlock bootloader!
Just go to motorola bootloader site and follow the instructions!

Do you know what model your friend has? (xt1607- unlocked version or xt1609- Verizon model) If he has the xt1607 unlocked version then he may be doing something wrong in the process. If he has the xt1609 Verizon model then this method will not work on it because at the moment it is not rootable or bootloader unlockable.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Stock firmware for Moto g4+ XT1643

Hello all,
I am having the phone XT1643 with Build MPJ24.139-23.1 . I want to install stock recovery and firmware. I have gone through the links in other thread for downloads but all those are providing for other builds. I have seen for builds MPJ24.139-13.1, MPJ24.139-13.3 and MPJ24.139-63.
So, should I proceed with other builds or should I search for build with MPJ24.139-23.1?? Also, which one should I use and will I be able to update further using OTA updates??
Note: I am having TWRP at present, also my phone is showing OTA update with build MPJ24.139-63
Thanks in advance.

You have already provided the answer with your question. Your phone shows you an ota. You are already running the 23.1 build most probably. Check from Settings->About phone-> Build number.
Note that you have to be non rooted and have stock recovery to flash the ota successfully.

Sorry to say, but please read my query once again. I know my build number. Also, I am having TWRP but not rooted and it is showing OTA update. That's why I want to install stock recovery.

Look at your thead title "stock-firmware-moto-g4-xt1643".
Well, if you only wanted the stock recovery, what was this info about? Additional info is not useful info if it's irrelevant.
I was under the impression that you were looking for the ota zip file.
Wouldn't a simple " can someone provide me the stock recovery from the 23.1 build of xt1643" been enough?
Anyways, you can download it from the link below.

Thanks Silesh,
I have downloaded it. But while I was flashing it using fastboot, it showed "Image is not signed or Corrupt".
However, TWRP is also gone.
Is it normal?

That's OK. Its just a warning. If it says OKAY, you are good to go.
Obviously you won't have twrp. You just replaced twrp with the stock recovery.

Motorola E4 help please?

Hi guys and gals,
I am ordering the Moto E4 right now and it comes unlocked already. Now do I have to root it, or since it is unlocked it is rooted already? Also since it is unlocked can I just use a one click root?

Unlocked means SIM unlocked. You must unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery and flash supersu through custom recovery

Ahh, so to do that I would just have to look up a guide I assume and follow the steps on it. Do you happen to have a video by chance?

Are you trying to confuse the guy? SuperSU will not work. You have to use Magisk 14.0 or phh's superuser.

Has anyone tried getting root without TWRP?

I've been meaning to try the Magisk install with adb but haven't yet. I'll do that some time today.

Choose your firmware (not older then the one you're running) and flash it in fastboot mode command by command or use the attached flashall.bat in this post:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5...patch-xt1687-npns25-137-t3796797/post76661211
Make sure you have the latest Motorola drivers and something like Minmal ADB & Fastboot installed.
