I got a Moto E from Cricket the other day and spent the last couple of days searching the forums to no avail and I hope to save others from wasting their time. I feel like if this is true it should be in one of the Guides or FAQs or something. I had to do a lot of searching before finding all this out.
So apparently Cricket/Att have opted out of/refused to participate in Motorolas bootloader unlock program.
The ONLY way (so far at least) to unlock your bootloader is by using the official unlock code from Motorola.
If you try and get the code from their site you get the error message: "Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking."
The only way to get root is to have an unlocked bootloader.
To make matters even worse, it appears as if they have completely blocked the ability to move ANY apps to the SD card. So you will have about 2Gigs total for apps.
I am going to try and return the phone today and buy an already unlocked version. Id love it if I was wrong about this but afaik that is the state of things atm.
