5.1 Rooted AT&T XT1097 with Tether
Below are the instructions for using MoFo to flash the AT&T XT1097
to 5.1. The rooted image has a modified build.prop file for free
tether. Thanks go to @Slack3r for making the ext4 image and @btdownloads7 for developing the root method.
Since this is a 5.1 image, in order to get it to boot, you need to do the following BEFORE flashing the 5.1 system image:
1) Download the stock 5.1 files and extract them:

2) Using a root file explorer (like ES Explorer with root enabled), delete everything in /data/dalvik-cache and /cache - YOU MUST DO THIS!
3) Reboot into bootloader mode and run the commands below to flash the following stock 5.1 files for the XT1097:
Do NOT flash the 5.1 bootloader (motoboot.img) or partition
table (gpt.bin) - if you do, you will not be able to use MoFo ever
again!!!!!
4) Download the rooted 5.1 image from here, extract it and flash it using MoFo.

MD5 of the unzipped file = 146B6A65D925B985857A2F28D4294765
Note that with the XT1096 we had issues if we tried to boot into recovery after initially flashing the 5.1 system image so instead of booting into recovery and wiping cache where you might get weird flashing dead androids, we had to boot into system first.
Obviously if you want Xposed or anything else in the image, someone will need to add it in.
