If flashing recovery is unsuccessful you're best bet is to flash the sbf firmware with rsdlite , this has happened to to more than a few including me

This is what I am seeing on the screen:
Fastboot reason: Reboot to bootloader
Downloading 10090496 bytes
Done
Flashing Recovery
Done
Everything looks correct. This is a DE phone. Does that require flashing the SBF with RSDlite?

look alot of people are having this issue it is a simple fix follow the directions step by step
Code:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img
as soon as you type the above command to flash TWRP we need to boot the phone into recovery before we let it boot to android we can do that via the command below.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
MAKE SURE THAT AFTER YOU TYPE THE FIRST COMMAND DO NOT LET THE PHONE BOOT TO ANDROID.
right after you hit enter for the mfastboot command type the reboot command it will boot into recovery. if not i would redownload the correct TWRP recovery for 4.4
there is a link here

If recovery flashes but is not available, your best bet is to flash the sbf firmware and flash recovery, its worked for numerous folks including me

Step 2 should be done with Mfastboot, not fastboot.
Repeat all three steps with mfastboot and you should be good.

Like I said previously ,flash the kitkat firmware, forget jb. You can not flash back to the pre camera ota, gpt.bin is the bootloader which if is incompatible will fail, saving you from hard bricking your device

What errors are the RSD and fastboot actually failing with?
When you're trying to do the fastboot flash, does "fastboot devices" actually show your device as connected?
-----Edit----
Are you sure that is the right version of the firmware? I'm waiting for access to the files from the moto site right now so I can compare the full file name, but I'm pretty sure you have the Maxx Dev Edition firmware file there.

You are THE MAN! Quick question regarding SuperSU.zip...Do I unzip it in windows and MOVE the 4 folders to the phone, OR do I only need to move the UNZIPPED SuperSU file to the phone? I am about to flash recovery and want to be sure. Thanks so much!!!
Boot into TWRP, open cmd prompt, type "adb push SuperSU.zip /sdcard" then hit enter, select install then SuperSU.zip.

Flashed TWRP entering "mfastboot flash recovery twrp-2.6.3.1-ghost-4.4.img" OK. When I enter "adb reboot recovery" I get device not found and nothing happens. This is stopping me from rebooting to Recovery. On the phone, I highlighted RECOVERY, hit the UP button, and it booted to Android.

I rebooted to bootloader again, reflashed TWRP, highlighted Recovery, hit UP, and the screen goes black and does not boot. If I press the power button, the phone will boot to Android. That is where I am now. Something must be up with my Recovery file?

OMG!!!!!!! The problem was my utter ignorance of a new device. I spent the last two days trying to boot to recovery using the up/down buttons or so I thought. I had no problems using the DOWN button...it was the UP button (I thought the POWER button was UP!!!) This is why I was not booting to Recovery...my Droid Bionic has two buttons on the side of the phone...its power button is on the top. I am sorry for being a pain everyone and I really appreciate all of your help! I AM ROOTED!!! :highfive::good:

I tried it install a new ROM and something went wrong. When it went wrong it went wrong. I lost all my backups and everything. I can get into TWRP right now. If I try and reboot with out going to TWRP I am just stuck at the white HTC screen. So I think the boot is messed up.
In searching looks like I will need to sideload via TWRP a new ROM to load. I can not find a good DIY for the sideload. I turn on sideloading and my PC sees my phone and loads it as a E drive. I an not get into my phone. I am searching through a lot of posts but with out luck. Just people saying they did it with out saying how.
Thank you for any help.

go ahead, as suggested

then as suggested
Code:
adb push <name_of_file>.zip /sdcard/
and install from twrp
or use sideload, whatever makes you happy
sorry again guys
i'll bug out now
PS: "cannot load" = the filename is wrong!! that's all
Ok got home and I tried a different USB port. I did a sideload of a older version on the ROM that I knew was good and phone is back up and working. Thank you all! Thanks are given out!
Hi,
I'm in desperate need of some help and am not sure what to do. My HTC One m7 got stuck in Cyanogenmod Simple Recovery after the latest update. It will keep rebooting back into Simple Recovery. Is there any way to get my phone back either to stock or to Cyanogenmod?
I always just left it on Cyanogenmod so I'm not very familiar with flashing or other programs. If anyone has any advice, could you please point me to the correct tutorials and downloads?
I am at a complete loss with how to get my phone to its original state.

You will have to flash CWM recovery in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB. You can get the recovery from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager find your phone then download the recovery.
In bootloader/FASTBOOT USB, flash CWM recovery (either rename the file CWM.img or type the whole name in place of CWM):
fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Thank you for replying.
So from what I'm understanding is that I will need to use ADB to sideload the recovery onto my phone, correct?
I'm not sure what the bootloader/FASTBOOT USB you refer to, I feel like I need it to be ELI5. My brain is melting when trying to read this.
P.S. I am STUCK in Cyanogenmod Simple Recovery. I am not able to power down the device or get to any other screen.

No, you can not load the recovery with sideload. Have ADB & Fastboot installed on your computer, place the recovery file in the same folder and connect your phone to the computer.
Open a command window in the folder where ADB & fastboot reside.
Type: adb reboot bootloader
When the screen on your phone shows the white bootloader screen in blue will be FASTBOOT USB
Type one line at a time waiting until the cmd screen states OK or something similiar:
fastboot flash recovery CWM.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Here is a guide on fastboot commands.

So I was able to get my device past the first prompt. I now see the white bootloader screen and it does say "FASTBOOT USB". I downloaded the latest TWRP and placed it in the same folder as ADB and Fastboot. I did the second command to flash it, however I keep getting the error "error: cannot open 'TWRP.img'. Any idea as to what I could be doing wrong?

Got it to work. Used adb to get into fastboot. Then opened up the CM installer and let it redownload cyanogenmod onto my phone.
Thanks for the help!
I unlocked the bootloader, when I boot my phone it gives a warning saying that the bootloader is unlocked and I need to press the power button to proceed, when I go into fastboot it shows the status as unlocked.
That said, any fastboot commands I issue, apart from reboot, returns the remote: unknown command error. ADB works fine, it's just fastboot.
To be more specific, I tried the following commands with no success:
fastboot erase system
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flash system file.img
fastboot -u flash system file.img

depends on what you wanna flash I guess, Odin is used mostly, but that's .tar archives. if you have TWRP there's that. if you're rooted kernels and recoveries can be flashed from a booted system.

do you guys even know that fastboot flash boot boot.img works with TWRP?
this is the only way to flash TWRP
Bro after this i face black screen only. Phone doesn't boot even phone doesn't boot in stock recovery.phone boot only fastboot mode.
you need to patch both boot partitions
fastboot flash boot_a file.img
fastboot flash boot_b file.img
then
fastboot reboot
