Correction: The fastboot screen on the phone says "USB Connected" when the factory cable is plugged in to the computer and the phone. But the computer doesn't seem to be registering it. I tried flashing with HoM and it sits at <waiting for device>.
I should add that the computer is able to see the device when plugged in with a non-factory usb cable.
Maybe the factory cable is defective?

more than likely it is a driver problem. download and reinstall the drivers for moto. and you are using a sub 2.0 port directly from the computer not a hub.

It seems the problem was because I was using a limited user account. When I switched over to an admin account, it worked. Unfortunately, it still failed to write anything using HoM and the 15.1 update of kk.

Thanks. Tried it, but still have the same problem.
When the phone 1st started having a problem and wouldn't boot, I was able to get to the recovery menu and tried using it. When that didn't help I tried flashing with HoM but didn't realize I needed to put in the snapdragon files for the xt907 - so it flashed with the wrong files. I don't have a clear memory, but it may have been after that that it would no longer go to the recovery menu and would only bring up the flashboot screen.
Wondering if this could be the reason it won't flash now?
I don't know what I'm doing anymore.....

This is outstanding loved it I definitely taught my phone was dead I was stuck on AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) with all kinds of fail messages for 2 days and try all different flashing methods to get back to stock and this is the only one that worked perfect and on the first try. Thank you guys you are awesome.

If you flashed firmware for another device, then you likely will not be able to flash the correct files to your device any more. On the fastboot screen, what does it say for fastboot reason?

I've got this magnetic field eraser that's used to completely erase hard drives. I'm thinking of trying it on the phone and then see if I can re-partition it.

Only the OEM has access to the files needed to setup the flash memory in the phones. I have not seen them out in the wild at all. You have to remember that it is flash memory not a hard drive. I believe it will destroy the memory chip.

So it's kind of like a bios chip and they're not putting out anything to reflash it?
Would you be able to explain what is happening as far as why flashing with the wrong fastboot files and the partition table being off would make the phone unfixable?
Thanks.

Using the bios chip is a fair analogy. The bios looks to the cmos for information as to where the system files are located to boot an os. Your phone has a protected section of the memory set aside for the same purpose depending on the chip set the phone uses. When you flash the wrong firmware the partitioning for the boot and protected areas no longer are readable or are overwritten, removed. Thats why you can never blank out the memory chip with out having the software and files to reload it. Usually it takes a direct serial link to the motherboard of the phone to re initialize the memory chip. Not from a usb connection.
That is my understanding of it anyway.

SamuriHL I know this is an old post but Thank You so much man!!! I followed your directions and I now have life back to my Razr HD XT926. The phone was stuck in the red eyeball on boot up and fastboot recovery was not working. The only issue I was having running the HouseOfMoto 4.3 was Security Version Downgraded message failure. I was using the wrong stock firmware factory images for the XT926. Since I have a locked bootloader I was unable to put on the jellybean 4.1.1 and downgrade. I needed to use the KitKat 4.4.2 and boom! Phone flashed fully, rebooted, got past the red eye, loaded the home screen. I can use this phone as a backup if my LG G5 runs into any issues...fingers crossed. You da man!

I'm getting the same issue as cisz did with repeated "FAILED (remote failure)" on my xt907 which was stuck on the Red M
I downloaded FXZ that spainter linked above, but my Fastboot Reason is "Boot menu selected" and it reboots the phone fine after all the script failures and it lists one string on fastboot devices
I'm on Mac OS X, it didn't like the "generated by" comments, so I removed those two lines, and I changed MAC OS X to Darwin in the path, but otherwise, I have not messed with the flashme script.
Any ideas?

I'm guessing your mac is usb3. That's not a good thing in this case.

nope. Mid 2009 Mac Mini. USB2
Have definitely used the same machine with HouseOfMoto in the past on a droid bionic, possibly a mini, and maybe an ultra... this is just the last holdout in the family, just reluctantly took the Ultra as a handmedown when their razr m went Red M... but would really like me to try and recover their text message history.
