It’s a Moto G 5G 2024 (Model XT2417-1) Factory Unlocked (Costed me $140 for the phone)
Done via a Steam Deck* running a Linux Mint on a (Live OS) USB Stick (USB Hub needed in order to plug in keyboard and mouse, the Boot Stick, and the OTG Cable to the phone, and the hub also needs to be powered.)
As for the unlocking, just look up the website and follow instrucion. Phone needs to be connected to the internet for about a week (6 days for me) to get the OEM Unlocking thing Un-Greyed so that you can toggle it on.
Seeing all those command lines feels like hacking :P
(*Who needs a computer when you have a steam deck as a computer xD)
(Yes I know about Graphene, but didn’t feel like getting a used phone that might not unlock, and definitely don’t wanna spend $500 for a new one)
I hope this is the inspiration y’all need to attempt this yourself. Because I’m a total noob and idk how command lines work and I did it by simply copy-pasting. Anyone can do it.
Ahhh, that’s good to know now that i’m actually considering buying this device. That sucks. Still better than Xiaomi though.
Its worth noting you also need to go to the Motorola website to “request” an unlock key. You do some fastboot commands to the phone and then pasting those results to the website (its like 5 lines of hexadecimal stuff that is unique to each device, you paste it to the website as one single string of text). The website seems to be automatic, there doesn’t seem to be any humans involved. You also need to create a Mototola Account to get the unlock key, but those account don’t need a phone number so you could just create a throwaway. I got the unlock key on day 0, but the developer settings toggle thing needed 6 days for me.
