hey all, this is new territory of this kind of messing around with an android phone so here goes

i had a DNA that i had working with t-mo no issues until the phone died (water damage)

in switching i got my moto x bootloader unlocked and has been working like a champ with working LTE except

1. stock motorola based roms work with the exception of text messages in my findings "my phone number" is unknown unless i patch it as a xt1053 or other GSM moto X

2. AOSP based roms (4.4.x) all have unknown phone number and will fail in sending any text messages , any 5.x based roms will show a phone number after an outgoing call but are not stable enough for me for prime time yet IMO

does anybody that has the XT1060 that may have moved it to a different carrier have any tips or directions of being able to use other roms with success?

I have the same issues. I'm xt1060 BL unlocked running cricket wireless. Most CM based roms (all the awesome suff) don't work. You can boot just about all of them but you will find issues with sending sms or calls in some circumstances. The only CM based rom I've had success with is CM12 Lollipop. It gives you a bit of a change but it isn't as good as any of the cm11 based roms. I HOPE THE XDA GODS SHINE SOME LIGHT ON THIS HORRID SITUATION.

Also as far as I know, its possible to make the roms work if you can change your oem carrier in fastboot. Google "fastboot oem config carrier". I was unsuccessful in getting things to work out.
