[Q] REPUBLIC XT1049 Custom ROMs topic






I have a Republic Wireless Moto x (XT1049) with an unlocked bootloader, and knowing how rare it is (literally 0 support on any thread/site/country), I'm still going to ask a few questions, maybe start a band of RWers with unlocked Moto Xs that will only survive by sticking together/cuddling for warmth.

Before anyone starts to disbelieve me, I do have an xt1049 (not confusing it) with an unlocked bootloader (not confusing it with simply being rooted). I achieved this by purchasing a license for SunShine by the jcase crew, and it worked wonderfully for whoever is out there, looking to unlock you xt1049. Why did I want to fork out 25 bucks for this? I started to hate the grind with towelpieroot+xposed every time I turned my device on, plus things like Viper4Android (among others) don't work well with temp roots, plus no write protection off, which has its purposes.

So on to my questions, (1) are there any custom ROMs designed for XT1049? (Probably no, so before you tell me no, (1a) are there any that work with my model?)
(2) If no one knows 1 or 1a, theoretically, what would happen if I flashed a ROM, say, CM 11/12, onto my phone? Please, to avoid a clutter of responses that consist of "idk probs no," have some level of confidence before answering.

For the theorists, Republic has a bunch of republic things going on in the background for the plural wifis to work correctly, how would these services (wifi calling/stuff) be affected, but also how would more universal things (moto x line specifically, but universal across carriers)? I don't know a whole lot about carriers because I have a serious phobia of letter combinations like CDMA and LTE, but to help understanding the "universal things" I mentioned, looking at the CM11 download page, one ZIP file can be used to flash the XT1053, XT1056, XT1058, XT1060, XT1055, you get the point. OK you got me, to refine it down,(3) I'm just trying to get a complete understanding of what would happen without trying it. I might/probably/would try it some other day, I have a load of college on my plate so if I have to undo anything (another question: (4) would I be able to revert to republic stuff if I have the correct zip, or what would have to go wrong so that I wouldn't be able to get to my bootloader/recovery?) I don't pay my phone bill, and my pops would be pissed if he read this so that's why I might not want to test it, but if there is a way to return I will be ballsy anyway.

(5) A question that I've had for a while but I never needed it answered, bootloaders remain unlocked after an update, right? My old phone (RIP HTC design 4g ) lost support at 4.2 and I never updated it the entire time it was rooted/unlocked. My moto on the other hand has 4.4.4 coming out soon and yeah I don't know the answer to it. I think it's implied it stays unlocked, but no one ever says it directly...

Well, thanks if you made it this far! And I would link whatever I could but I am a new user to this site and I'm restricted, you can just look up Sunshine jcase if interested.
