I want to get my XT1528(VZW) upgrade to 6.0 Marshmallow but Motorola said it would remain to 5.1 Lollipop.
But other countries are now able to upgrade to 6.0 Marshmallow. (I wish they're
And I heard that other stock 6.0 Marshmallow rom for Moto E is available for XT1528 if it was unlocked. Is this true?
No. Motorola has stated that they are not going to push out Marshmallow to any of the US models. Furthermore, the Verizon model is not bootloader unlockable, so you cannot flash another model's ROM or custom roms like CM13.
there is a custom rom for the Verizon Moto E Second Generation for both Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and Android 6.0 Marshmallow but they are pretty pointless right now because the Verizon variant has an locked bootloader
If there is a unofficial bootloader unlock for Motorola like jcase's method and added support for the xt1528, then they would be helpful but there is no stable root and kingroot just temp root
Doesn't write into the system
It maybe helpful in the future but we may never get a bootloader unlock

There aren't any custom ROMs for the XT1528, but support is already present in custom ROMs like CM13, for whenever/if it gets a bootloader unlock.

I am having moto e 1st gen running lollipop 5.0.2 soak test. And yes its damn slow and laggy. I like to install custom roms. But the problem is that my boot loader is locked. I am just wondering ,if I follow the guide that people used to unlock boot loader when they were in kitkat ,ll help me to unlock bootloader with phone running lollipop.
I can simply get back to 4.4.4. and unlock from there but I saw many warnings regarding downgrading from lollipop to kitkat. And also the guides which helps to downgrade ,are contradiction to each other as one guide includes commands for got,motoboot and logo but the other doesn't include that saying it ll hard brick.
I am really confused abt that.
Any help abt boot loader unlocking with lollipop soak test would be welcome.
Thanks.
I am from India , and xt1022 is the only model here in India I believe.

Bootloader unlocking has nothing to do with system version(lollipop or kitkat) and it is permanent. If you unlocked the bootloader while you were in kitkat it is unlocked forever(unless you go to service centre and replace the motherboard) ,whether you update your rom to soak test or any custom lollipop rom. The guide for unlocking bootloader is same regardless of your system version. If you ever decide to downgrade to kikat ,make sure to downgrade to 4.4.4 If you downgrade to 4.4.2 you may brick your device
And follow this guide to downgrade http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/development/downgrade-5-0-x-to-4-4-4-stock-firmware-t3031073

First of all,thanks for replying.
And now my doubt is cleared abt bootloader.
So after bootloader unlocking, I have to root and then flash custom recovery to have custom rom with twrp recovery. ,right ?
Am I missing anything here ?
Will my phone be stuck in bootloop after unlocking boot loader,cos it happens normally in some phones, ?

1)unlock bootloader-->2)flash twrp recovery--->3)*may require* to flash SuperSu to root--->4)Flash custom rom
3rd step may not be required but do it just to be safe.
I got my first ever LG phone. its LG V10. I dont know how to root it. Please all of you experts, I request you people to englighten me the Rooting process for my V10 smartphone. Currently my phone has Lollipop 5.1.1 with build number LMY47V and with Kernel Version 3.10.49. I want to root my phone with the latest android 6.1 lollipop ROM for LG V10. Thank you all.
First of all. Upgrade your Firmware to Android 6.0 by going into Settings-> General -> About Phone-> Update -> Software Update.
You don't have to root to upgrade to Android M.
But still if you want to root your phone.
First of all unlock unlock bootloader of your LG-V10. using the following link to the official guide from LG. (Enable USB debugging and OEM unlock) (This is only for H960A)
https://developer.lge.com/resource/mobile/RetrieveBootloader.dev
Once unlocked.
Install TWRP.
Put SuperSU in your phone and flash it using TWRP.. That's it.
If its your first time. Then use the following guide. It has all the details.

I would not suggest a firmware update yet as far as I know the latest firmware is 6.0.1 which I don't think is rootable

if they have the H960A wich have bootloader unlockable (when updated to Marshmallow) they can root it for sure!
First update to Marshmallow if you have H960A and then unlock your bootloader follow LG website to instructions and then search here for TWRP and then flash SuperSU zip file.
- and the last version of V10 H960A is 6.0 not 6.0.1.

I was having lollipop 5.1.1 for GCC countries like UAE/KSA and due to that reason my phone was not going into bootloader/fastboot mode. But then I upgraded to MarshMallow European version, my phone now can go into bootloader mode and all those steps can be done to unlock my bootloader. Any idea what should I do next after unlocking my bootloader while running MM EU version for the ROOT?:silly::crying:
Hi,
if you have indeed unlocked your bootloader what you should do is the following:
1. install custom recvovery
2. flash SuperSu.
You find a step-by-step guide in this thread (first post).
Well, today i see some news about the update for G5 and they say the update for Nougat 7.0 will come in the early November.
From cronology V10 is the second high-end launched before G5 and my hope is we will get the 7.0 until December...what you think XDA user???
Still on rooted 5.1.1. If no root for Nougat (probably not) then I don't care anyway. Just can't get rid of Xposed and its No Safe Volume Warning module.
beavis5706, you have the locked bootloader version sure?! because i have the international H960A and i have root on Marshmallow! and i think LG will be good with users and allow all versions to be unlockable soon!
@sun_is_shinning how did you get root on v10 MM?
@057wds i have the H960A version international...and this version have bootloader unlockable and for sure TWRP and root!! if you have the same version you can search the V10 section of XDA and you will find how to unlock bootloader and how to root it...only if you have Verizon VS990 (i think) or H960A international version!
I gather that it is necessary to unlock the bootloader in order to root - is this possible to do on the Verizon version? If so, could someone point me towards a tutorial, as I have only found posts on rooting, not unlocking the bootloader.
To date, it's not.
Thanks.
So then it is not possible to root the Verizon version?
[ASK] bootloader version
hai guys, need info of moto z xt1650-03.
i've moto z 7.1.1 and BL 91.08.
i've already tried to reflash with version 6, but i've got the error for downgrade issue.
so i flash it back to its original.
so much work to do this, coz i've been very hard bricked for downgrading it.
the question is, is it possible to downgrade BL 91.08 to other version ?
i think that if i can downgrade it, it can flash the old version like MM or N 7.0
many thanks.

Hi
Is it posiible to flash us international firmware in locked tracfone moto g play phone.If yes can this unlock the phone to accept others sim cards.
thank you

If you can unlock the OEM bootloader you should be able to install the RETUS stock rom image. You're more likely to have issues when flashing other phone carrier rom versions (or channels), and if the image you're installing has an older security patch than what's currently installed.
