I very much doubt you will be able to buy a dev/test phone from any authorized retailer.
I don't see why anyone would get a dev/test phone unless it somehow, accidentally got into a batch of Retail phones...........
Chances are if you don't already know then it isn't a dev phone.

I was wondering if we could get s-off on our radio since we have an unlocked bootloader? Maybe something similar to gfree for Inspire?
What do you mean by radio s-off?

something like unrevoked where you can flash unsigned patitions and have permanent root.
S-off is an HTC thing, an unlocked bootloader gives the same access.

When you put in a Tmobile simcard it still asked for a code, what can I do to disable that?

Thread moved to proper forum.
do I need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom rom? Or can I use koush's moto a4 bootstrap? And if that's all I need, then with all the ATRIX roms that say to use cwm, can I just use the bootstrap since I can't get cwm? Also what can I and can't I flash using the bootstrap?

he's playing you. he's kinda rude.
there's not a lot of development going on due to driver issues. i would say so at least. so it makes things much slower. most all roms are stable with a few bugs and all ics/jb are without drivers and a few of the devs are busy with their own lives at the moment. so it makes development a lot slower!
Oh.... that means we will never have a unlocked bootloader except motorola itself unlock it....

Haha only slightly! But I'm pleanty helpful when I can be Again, this is a question that pertains to the current bootloader delima, of which there is a wealth of information within 3 or 4 threads just on page one and two of general and QA..
2.3.4 bootloader was unlockable, because Motorola allowed us to download it and use it. It was not developed! And it's the only one unlockable bootloader, we have.

I am running a version of 2.35 that was not ota but shows a reservedODM value that is unlockable. Is there a way to use this to help unlock other devices?

you could try doing the fastboot work around? if it's anything like the electrify with the 2.3.5 shipped bootloader you can easily unlock. try it out.

Okay. Looks good. Is there a way to extract logs or other info that might help the devs find a workaround or method to unlock the BL on other devices? Should anything be installed to help with that?

Does anyone have a recovery that is tested and working on the Motorola electrify? Also a JB ROM would be nice. Appreciate it

You can also find jb roms from there
Thanks I will try it later. By the way, know a stable JB ROM for the electrify. I was going to try CM or ParanoidAndroid but they don't say that they are compatible with the electrify.

Only some electiry phones shipped with the 2.3.5 update can still have thier bootloader unlocked. I know of none who took the update to ever unlock their bootloader. Sorry to disappoint
