With my Moto X (Ghost) XT1052 I have strange problems installing custom ROMs and root.

TWRP
If using the latest stable TWRP 2.8.7.0 and trying to install CM13 I get an error message like this:
Code:
This package is for device: xt1052,ghost,xt1053,ghost_retail,xt1055,ghost_usc, xt1056,ghost_sprint,xt1058,ghost_att,ghost_rcica,x t1060,ghost_verizon; this device is )".
There is a thread about making changes to the updater-script to get around this problem which did not solve the problem for me, and I don't see it as a permanent solution.

What did work was to install an older version, specifically TWRP 2.6.3.1.

Question: Is there a solution to this problem with a specific current build of TWRP or have ro.product.device permanently set?

SuperSU
After flashing the latest SuperSU from TWRP and rebooted, the device just hangs on the boot logo and does not pass.

Using the much older SuperSU 2.63 works without a problem.

Question: Is there any solution to get the latest SuperSU installed?

Mate, I installed the unofficial TWRP from the post below, it worked fine in my moto X (XT1058). Try flash the TWRP 3.0.2 via fastboot (using computer).

Try to verify the downloaded archives, because they may contain errors and a re download is needed.
