Help Stuck on 4.2.2 Jellybean

Hi, I just bought a used Moto X (2013). There is no carrier branding on the back and it's written Xt1058 but the ROM installed is of AT&T. When I installed WhatsApp, it said that my phone has a 'custom ROM' and that some features won't work, but otherwise the phone is working just fine. Due to this ROM I'm not getting OTAs as well and I'm stuck on 4.2.2 Jellybean.

My question is that can I flash any other ROM on the phone so that I start receiving OTAs and while making sure that my phone remains unlocked? I don't want to end up locking my phone again. Can flashing a new ROM lock my phone again? Can I revert to stock ROM somehow (maybe the set isn't originally of AT&T)?

In need of help. Thanks.
 
You need to get your phone back to stock. XDA forums have some info on that. Basically you need to unroot, reset and I believe lock the bootloader. It might be a bit of a hassle if you are not familiar with adb.
