Is it possible to unlock the bootloader for a Motorola Z2 Play (Verizon Variant) and flash TWRP recovery and possibly root the device?

No. You should have purchased the unlocked version from Motorola if you wanted to do that.

Could one purchase the unlocked version (xt1710-01) and put the verizon (xt1710-02) software on it once unlocked?
Also, if you enable developer options on the Verizon variant, there is a toggle labeled "allow bootloader to be unlocked". It isn't clear whether or not turning this on actually unlocks the bootloader.

Is this true. If you buy the z2 play the unlocked version. Can you still use Verizon sim?

Huh? When you unlock a device GSM wise its unlocked for EVERY GSM carrier not just 1. I think you may mean APN's which can be added by looking up your carrier APN's

Have you rooted?
I don't think bootloader unlock is even possible at this point. There were quite a few threads about this posted earlier in the month/year. I would recommend checking those before creating a thread about it!

Republic wireless sells it. Think most people buy it unlocked direct from Moto, or Best buy or Amazon.
Are all variants unlockable?

Bootloader unlocking? No, some variants like the Verizon variant in the US are not unlockable out of the box.
Hello XDA! I just got a new Motorola Moto G6 Play XT1922-9 unlocked version. I was wondering that since it's been a couple of months (give or take a few) since the phone's release, if you all knew of any custom roms for this phone. Mine is already rooted with Magisk.
Thanks!

The only rom's available as of right now are project treble gsi (generic system image). There is an official Resurrection Remix GSI https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....gsi-resurrection-remix-o-6-1-0-t3811299/amp/. Download treble check to see if you have "A" only partition or A/B partition. Then download which ever rom you have the partition for

I only have a partition A and seamless updates are not supported. Project Treble is supported, so do I need to build a custom rom for this with Project Treble or can I just flash it? If I do just flash the ROM, will it be buggy?

Which one should I choose? There are about five of them.
And the roms are buggy. They are generic system images so they work for any phone thats project treble compliant so they have bugs just there different bugs for different devices. I can say the fingerprint scanner and some other stuff does not work on the g6 play. Wouldn't recommend using the GSI roms if you plan on using the phone daily basically lol

You click the big green box that says download latest version. Those are the gapps that you have to flash separately after flashing the rom

My phone isn't working. I wiped /system and flashed the vanilla GSI, but then it boots into the bootloader
Well you should have read everything before going on flashing something that has bugs. your gonna need to flash the stock rom for you variant of your phone. As long as you still have twrp it should be easy
that's not what they meant ninja. anyway, jeter user here, about to test it once I get the thing flashed
it works, probably should have flashed the roms in a different order, though

What? Bootloader? carrier?
Bootloader.... Did you unlock it?
Carrier.... Did you buy the carrier unlocked version from Motorola?
Check if your bootloader is unlocked. I did not unlucky it myself, but maybe they sold me an unlocked version.

Go to "Settings > System > About Phone" and tap your build number 7 times.
Then go to "Settings > System > Developer Settings" and see if you can enable OEM unlocking. If you're already unlocked it will say so at the bottom of the switch, and be grayed out. You shouldn't be unlocked if it's a new device though. If the switch is not there, your bootloader can't be unlocked.
The switch is there, and I can enable it. So the device has locked bootloader?

It means you can request an unlock code to unlock your bootloader from Moto. Check out unlock bootloader thread with clear guide in other section:

There are no unlocked versions, you have to unlock it yourself.
G6 Play has it's own Forum now, wew, the first thread in the development subforum is on a similar topic.
