Yesterday we had reported about Motoroot, a root exploit for AT&T and Verizon Moto X and the 2013 DROID lineup. Well guess what @jcase has added support for US Cellular, Sprint and Rogers Moto X as well.

The instructions to root are still the same:-

1. Grab the apk file for your carrier’s Moto X from here
2. Install the apk using adb adb install -r <filename>
3. Run MotoRoot app from app drawer
4. Press Setup
5. Wait for phone to reboot
6. Install SuperSU from Play Store

We have some good news, the Moto X will have an unlockable bootloader except for AT&T and Verizon variants. This was made clear by Punit Soni , Motorola’s VP Product Management.

Moto X on the Sprint, US Cellular, Rogers and T-Mobile networks will have an unlockable bootloader, and in addition, we will be offering a Verizon Wireless Developer Edition and a general North American Developer Edition.

There will also be a developer version of the Moto X for Verizon and a general North American Developer Edition (which we assume will have AT&T LTE support). No word on the release of the developer versions though.
