In AP Fastboot mode, flash cwm.  As soon as it says it's complete, unplug the USB cable, power off the phone.  Hold Vol UP and DOWN, tap power.  From the menu, select recovery.

[srmason6]

Can I put the recovery in a folder that has a script in it and rename it recovery.IMG......I think I'm getting in over my head... But kit kat is nice!!

  then i just get a black screen when i reboot into recovery      WTF I CANT SPELL

[SamuriHL]

I don't know.  Looks like it's flashing correctly but hard to say.  What fastboot are you using?  Hopefully the snapdragon version?  If not, there's a link to it in the OP.

[srmason6]

I got it to work, i had to use fast boot command "fastboot reboot" and when you press enter immediately hold volume up button....Is that the way  I need all the time now or is it voll+ and power?  I could try and see i suppose....Thanks again for helping out!!

[livinginkaos]

I did have a moment where I couldn't get CWM to boot during testing - kept booting to a black screen then powering itself off. I have no idea what caused it. 

[pastorgadget]

THANK YOU! The recent KitKat OTA bricked my xt926, leaving me with a very pretty Moto "M" on the screen and nothing else. Having rooted my previous Droid 2 and 3, I wasn't afraid to use this tool. I followed the directions (my boss would be surprised at that), and a little while later, I was back in business. Now I will try the OTA again. Not sure what happened the first time, but at least I know I can go back. Thanks again!

If you took the ota then you can not downgrade a locked phone.

After 2 days of of haggling with this I finally got my phone working.  Thank you SamuriHL 

 

[grgguy]

Does this support more than 1 phone ? I have a xt875( Bionic ) and a xt1080 ( Maxx). I used HOM last week to flash the stock recovery on my maxx in order to take the update. Anyways today I thought I'd get it set up for the bionic as well. I made a seperate folder within HOM (xt875)and followed the instructions just as I did for the Maxx's folder (xt1080 ). Well I tried to run it but it wont switch devices or fxz files when I change them in the menu? How doi fix this ? Neither phone is borked right now so it's not an emergency. Thanks in advance !

[SamuriHL]

It will switch it, but, you have to reload it after you do.  Not sure why it's not re-initializing it properly.  If I figure it out I'll potentially release an update.

o) Included HouseOfMoto-ScriptGenerator jar

o) HouseOfMoto-ScriptGenerator.jar now adds pauses between reboot-bootloader commands in the fastboot scripts to allow the device time to fully reboot

I see business is picking up in here....lol

All that for me ? Well you shouldn't have. I'll download it and let you know how it goes .   Thank's !

[SamuriHL]

I was already in the middle of integrating the script generator anyway so I figured I'd squash your bug as well. Was a pretty quick fix.

o) Minor update for Mac and Linux users to ensure they're running with sudo permissions

[grgguy]

Worked like a charm. I unzipped the new file ( 2.1 )  onto the old one. Hooked up the Bionic and ran the savedata fxz. 

. Thank you Sam I did forget to add root and took an extra hour to find and apply. All is well though.
