The Moto X Pure Edition (Style) is a brand new device from Motorola, this device is just like the Nexus 6 and has some good specs. This device also has all the looks from the Moto flagship devices which are a sleek looking device with power key and volume rocker key on the same side of the device with a curvy back finish. Coming to the specs, this phone has 5.7 inches full HD display, 1.8 GHz quad-core processor, 21 MP primary camera and 5 MP front facing the camera with three gigs of RAM and this device is powered with a 3000 mAh of Li-ion battery.

Android devices give their best when they are rooted and customized with some speed-boosting apps whether it is at the interface level or performance level. Moreover, for rooting, you have to unlock the bootloader of these devices first and for that, you can go here. Some geeks like me prefer making or testing new custom ROM on their phones and of you are the one like me then you will be jubilant to know that today I am going to give you a way of doing that on your device.

Today I want to tell you about installing a custom recovery on your phone; this recovery is TWRP which is a touch enabled recovery, and you can operate this recovery very easily.
