  1. Hi Root Junky! I have exhausted all tips and tricks to unlock a Moto G (XT1040) that what acquired from the Videotron carrier here in Canada. The phone does not ask for a subsidy code when we insert a sim from a different provider. Will we need to reflash the phone with a “generic” firmware?

    Thanks a lot in advaqnce for your help.

  6. Hey bro, My xt1033 was softbricked and I tried to revert back to stock but it was stuck at “Warning unlocked bootloader logo” so I flashed TWRP and pushed CM zips.
    But while flashing the CM zips, TWRP shows E:unable to mount \data , system, cache.

    Can you help me bro?
