[Q] Root Timeline Estimates

[Icon000]

First I want to say I know there is no way to predict this but since the phone is popular I figured there would be enough developers and users interested in getting this done.


How long Does everyone think it might take?

1 Month?, 2 Months?, 3 Months?, 6 Months?, 8 Months?, 1 Year?


UPDATE: This Question is Specifically for the AT&T Model of the Moto X since it currently has a locked boot loader which to my limited knowledge makes achieving root harder.

Well, Canadian phones are rooted.

As always, eta is "when it's ready." Unless you have the skills and willing to volunteer your time to make a root, I suggest you sit back and enjoy the motoX as is. There's a lot to like.

Maybe if you are getting antsy with wanting it done perhaps you can start a bounty by getting people to put a few bucks into a pool and whoever gets it unlocked and/or rooted gets the prize money.

If I was smart like a geek I'd figure it out....but I'm not!! So I'll donate to the cause if a bounty is started!!!

If I had money left over from buying the phone, I would. I was more curious about what other people think since when I got my SG3 it was about 6 months later and tons of devs had kicked out a bunch of stuff for it already. I didn't know if that pace was typical for popular phones.

I'm going to wait to start a bounty. This is a thriving community and we all want to help each other out. Unless someone finds root and decides to hold out for a bounty (BS) I think we'll find something. Bounties are to grab the attention of people like @djrbliss. That have bigger fish to fry. ( speaking of....come by and show moto up again!!!)
