This Metro Razr 2024 deal is mainly about a cheap foldable with a one year Metro lock and eSIM activation. The strongest upside is the price, with multiple orders going through around $65 or even $35 for a second line, and the phone can be used on Wi Fi or as a secondary device while waiting. Community testing also points to a possible unlock path on some Android 14 units, especially older November 2024 builds. The main catches are frequent stock and checkout failures, plus many reports that newer Android 15 or March 2025 units stay locked or hit server errors. A good fit if you are comfortable with the wait and the activation hassle.

Correct. I might just try this later today. I'm yet to meet a device I haven't been able to unbrick!
Ha then you know what you do very well! You will be good on this one too!

I will submit mine for BL unlock too once it hits 7 days.

The OEM unlocking toggle takes 7 days, the code is instantaneous. No reason to wait on the unlock code and risk the site being down or Moto acting up.

My understanding is that any A14 firmware should work
This firmware has the March 2025 security update, so it will not work (like I wrote earlier). We will need the Jan or Feb TMO firmware.
(Downgrading to A14 went smoothly.)

Doesnt unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty.

I saw people mentioning that even just requesting the bootloader key is enough for voiding the Motorola warranty. Is that correct?

I have one phone with the January version but wasn't able to unlock it. The only one that I was able to unlock had the October 2024 update.
Please let us know when you find the correct version. I got 4 phones but could only unlock one for now.

Unlocking the bootloader voids the warranty, yes. I would not recommend it until somebody confirms that they've had success carrier unlocking after a downgrade. Unlocking and flashing firmware can brick your phone-- I briefly got my phone into a soft loop this way.
I unlocked the bootloader on my March 2025 security update a14 phone and downgraded it to the January patch (used the RETAIL version of the firmware) and was still unable to carrier unlock. It's getting late, but I'll try again with a different version later.

My attempt to unlock the phone failed. My phone is on A14 with January 2025 security update (originally it had the November 2024 security update but then quicky self updated to January 2025 security update). And I did follow shortyman24's instruction steps as follows -

1. Download the Moto unlock tools
2. In developer settings enable ADP
3. Once the phone is connected to the computer (usb and file transfer mode), launch the app, turn off the metro PCS sim and wifi.
4. Click Unlock (which opens up screenshare on you computer (u can make it bigger by putting 980 on the max size,
5. Internet sharing - Click Ok on the Connection Request for Gnirehtet, Also clicking Turn on WIFI and you should see connections in that ghir box
6. Click Open Metro unlock app (WiFi is ON at this point)
7. Click Phone Permanent Unlock then reboot, double check unlock status in about phone
The Moto unlock tools are downloaded from here: https://xdaforums.com/t/how-unloc...t-90088027
What happened to me was that in Step 7 there was no "phone permanent unlock". After Step 6, my screen just showed "LOCKED" with some 180 day eligibility policy language below it. That was the end.
I wonder if this was due to the fact that I already activated the phone with Metro esim on it.

That's consistent with my own experience. I know for a fact it works on the October 2024 version. Please update on your next move.

Try turning off esim data before clicking the open metro unlock app, if you don't see the permanent unlock button click the Reset Metro App and try opening the metro unlock app again. Keep Reseting app if you keep getting that 180day Metro. Also try turning off all internet wifi + esim, but you should still have the VPN logo gnirehtet.
