This will void your warranty, like all root exploits. Use this at your own risk. Do not take OTAs on rooted devices unless you know what you are doing, as it may cause a bootloop or a soft brick.
RockMyMoto is designed for MotoXs that have recieved the Camera update, patching PwnMyMoto. If you are unsure of your firmware, try PwnMyMoto first.
Hi all. I'm trying to run the above exploit for root access and everything seems to work fine until I run the command below:
dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto
Then I get the following output:
Dalvik VM unable to locate class 'RockMyMoto'
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: RockMyMoto

I've watched the video and read the instuctions multiple times but I can't figure out where I've gone wrong. I'm hoping that one of you will be able to help me out with this. Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide.

Any advantage to this method over taking the OTA and keeping root using rootkeeper as described on the other forums? Does this still require reboot to recovery to enable r/w on /system?
Is there a way to root without using the telnet? I would turn off AP isolation, but the router is my roommate's and she doesn't know the login info (not the same as the default log in on the bottom of the router).

Buy or borrow cheap used router (like an old Linksys wrt one)
Power it on (does not have to be connected to the internet) and make sure it's on a different subnet than the real router you use so it doesn't interfere (i.e. switch it to 192.168.2.1 if your normal router is on 192.168.1.0/8)
Connect your phone to it
Connect your pc to it
Use telnet as stated in the OP
Either that or reset your current router back to factory defaults and regain the login password.

Is there any reason this wouldn't also work on the Droid Ultra/Maxx?
Also, is there a benefit if already rooted with PwnMyMoto to go through the process to keep root to upgrade to the latest patch and stick with PwnMyMoto, or just patch and run this?
Just wanted to let everyone know that I figured out what my issue was. When I originally attempted to root my device I enabled USB debugging but didn't disconnect then reconnect my device. Today I tried again and after enabling USB debugging I disconnected and re connected (forgot to enable it before I connected my Moto X and everything went smoothly. I'm now rooted and all's right with the world!
Thanks, jcase, for the guide and RockMyMoto exploit and thanks to those who attempted to help me.
Big thanks to jcase and everyone in this thread who helped me root my Droid Maxx following the OTA! After being rooted using pwnmymoto (thanks again jcase!), I reverted back to stock using RSDLite, took the OTA, and re-rooted using RockMyMoto.
All was well at that point. I installed SuperSu, Titanium Backup, and proceeded restored Missing Apps and system settings. This last part seems to have been a mistake -- though it never gave me a problem when flashing Roms on my GNex, and here I wasn't even changing devices.
In any case, I rebooted after doing that restore, and I have been stuck looking at the Droid Eye in an endless bootloop. I tried using RSDLite to flash back to stock, but since that's a OS version downgrade, it failed. I have rebooted into AP Fastboot mode and tried all of the options in that menu, but all lead me back to this same bootloop.
Were you ever able to revert to the stock recovery after having had PwnMyMoto installed? Or is this necessary if you don't have SS installed PreOTA?
