I saw in the general section that someone successfully unlocked there bootloader through the official Motorola website tool. However for future reference questions should always be posted in the Q&A Section, not in the Original Development section :good:.

Tried to unlock but the moto site said "your device can not be unlocked". And when I checked back in the eligible devices to unlock, moto E India wasn't there on the list.. Any Indian moto E owner unlocked?

Give it another try. Make sure you copy the unlock data/device id correctly.
BTW, You do know it'll void your warranty. Just saying.
Also, since Moto doesn't have an official support page for India, they probably didn't list it. However, I know a friend who did unlock it without any issues. So that makes at least 2.

Thanks.. I would give another try soon..

Doesn't matter what variant you have. Just follow the guides (Stickies) in the general section.
Only the carrier locked devices are not eligible for BL unlock. Rest can be unlocked officially by Moto.

Well that's the first time I've ever done that lol (I was searching that for a mashup for a party I'm djing on Valentines Day but back on topic), here is the real guide I meant to link to.

Thanks, butIts the same guide, but when i sign in to moto's site it says my BL can't be unlocked. Any alternative to that ??

It MUST exist a solution for sure, so if anyone got a solution, please share us!
THANK YOU!
The only known methods for SIM-unlocking a D2G are to convince Verizon to give you an unlock code, or to purchase an unlock code from a vendor who offers a refund on codes that don't work (because there is a good chance third-party vendors' codes won't work).
If you don't believe me, search this forum and the Droid 2 Global General forum for "sim unlock" and see what others have said.
hey,some Chinese has unlocked many d2g in a very "dirty" way, they use a software to change imei to ns device's, haha

Q: Unlock bootloader?

Hi guys, I've had a Desire HD, Xoom and TF700 in the past and all of them needed to have an unlocked bootloader in order to flash custom roms.
Is it the same here?
Because rooting went very easy here, done in half a minute thanks to the cf method
nope, it's unlocked
Bootloader is by unlocked by stock.. But verizon version has a locked bootloader.

I indeed have an EU i9300 so I was able to flash a Rom very easily.

[Q] I'm Stupid (bootloader locked and flashing)

First of all, I'm spanish, my apologizes of my expresions or misspelling.
That's what I've done:
1 - I've checked if my bootloader was unlockable, and my phone say's: NO
2 - Then I've installed the DualRecovery W/O root and with my phone bootlocked.
3 - Then I've tryed to flash CM11 in TWRP recovery, flashing first the Boot.img via fastboot.
4 - Device in Red Light.
What I can do to woke up my Z2? That's my record 2 hrs to **** my phone. :silly:
Firstly, it's stated in the first post of the CM11 thread that you shouldn't be using dual recovery. If you read the thread further, you'll see that it is recommended to use the recovery in DooMKernel to flash. And this requires unlocked bootloader.
Anyways, you can try using Flashtool to flash a stock firmware. Might be able to recover your phone.

If your BL is locked, you cannot install CM.... coz you cannot install a custom kernel. you should rebuild your phone using SEUS to put a good ROM.
Then you can put whatever ROM you want for LB and root it. but no custom kernel.

Hi there,
Is there any way to get root access without unlocking the bootloader. I found some ways in XDA but nothing is clear.
I would really appreciate if you guys can send me a link with a clear tutorial of how to get a new ROM without unlocking the bootloader.
I just got my Z2 which is sim locked (UK) and I can't unlock the bootloader from the official page.
Many thanks,
tux

Yeah, working right now, then 3 questions more:
first: the phone comes with a Vodafone rom, I can put some "unbranded" rom? how?
second: I can't unlock my bootloader forever ??
and third: What is the function of recovery mode if I can't flash any cRom? Just backups?
Thanks all ^^

You can download a Generic FTF and use flashtool to flash it to your device
Once you unlock your bootloader it stays unlock till you relock
You can flash roms n manage general other stuff from recovery

What is the model of the device? Be more specific how are we supposed to help when all you've said is that you need to root a device...
use Kingroot latest version. I just did it on my GF4. Then if you want to switch to custom recovery, just create it yourself by MTK Droid Toos.
