no i unlocked it the minute i got it
:)

after some attempts i flashed recovery.img + oem
fastbooted the system files + modem and the rest
then wiped to default
then the update went through
first thing i did was to temporarily boot to twrp and make
backup of that point
then rooted and it looks ok
kernel looks like stock "hudsoncm"

There are only Chinese and English langs on Chinese firmware.
After bootloader unlocked, you can also flash US, EU, India, or Verizon firmware, no problem.
Sorry for my bad English too, my MOTOZ is XT1650-05, I had flashed EU firmware. Hope this can help you.

Somebody got OTA update but I hadn't. I'm downloading verizon nougat firmware now. But the speed of filefactory is really sucks.

Could you please also upload the firmware to mega or google drive? Filefactory speed so slow:crying:

used XT1650-03_GRIFFIN_RETEU-EMEA_MPL24.246-17_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-03_CFC_EMEA
boot and recovery failed
i fastbooted system..0-13
then modem
then oem
then logo
after that the update to 24.246-45 went all the way but:
i see in settings about build MPL24.246-45
then i connect to motorola device manager and it shows:
MPL24.246-17 us retail no update
go figure..

thanks. i somehow managed to install everything, phone boots and everything works.
only one issue: when booting into recovery i get this (see pic) and i can't see any options. tried pressing every single button but nothing changes, it stays like this all the time. have you experienced this as well?
