Has anyone had any problems, or even gotten an unlocked Moto X on MetroPCS? I searched everywhere, but couldn't find anything. I know that Metro has your own BYOD program in DFW and other cities, but is that ONLY for their phones that are listed? Any info on the subject would be much appreciated.

Metro pcs is part of t Mobile now. If you bring over an unlocked gsm device I think they even give you a $50 rebate. Friend of mine did it with a Puerto Rico moto x. All on t mobiles network if you do it.

I know this thread is several months old but I had an unlocked Moto X activated on metro today. So far everything is working well. It shows that I have 4G LTE. I have tested calls and data using both the 4G and wifi connections. I am using an unlocked GSM Moto X.

MOTO X on Metro PCS

was also interested in moto x for metropcs . anyone here got first hand knowledge ?
I also have just had a MOTO X on Metro PCS. I ordered the Phone, and also the Metro PCS Sim Cards for $10(plus tax) from their website. Installed the sim card, and called *228. They ask for the IMEI# which doesn't show up in their system. I told them it was an unlocked phone. They input the serial, and Metro Sim # and it's working fine.

I'm still using my xt1053 on Metropcs. I lost all data after the LP update but fixed it with a new Apn. Otherwise I've had no issues in the last 18+ months. (no issues with the service, I have all kinds of issues with the phone itself after updating.)
