Really need your help, please!
I've bought MOTO RAZR X925 from Amazon.
I have:
Android 4.1.2
98.22.16001.XT925.Retail.en.DE
Software Version: 9.8.2Q-8-XT925_VQUL-16
First time I turned on the device, set up all accounts, mail, installed some apps from PlayMarket.
Then I decided to change all my accounts and just did "Factory Reset" in order to not waste my time for any changing. I did it while usb-cable was connected to PC. No root, no unlocks. After rebooting the device started to update software (!), showing green droid with blue something inside. In the end this greed droid falls down showing an error. And the device starts the same again with no success.
If to press power & vol + it shows booting menu. If to choose "Normal Powerup" it starts normally and offers to set up the device normally, and then works normally. After reboot it goes again to updating a software which again fails and erases all the data!!! But if to boot with "Normal Powerup" from boot menu - the device works normally with all saved data.
If to boot by choosing "Recovery" option from boot menu and with connected usb-cable it goes again to error.
Please help me with it, I'd much appreciate it.
EDITED: tried to flash exactly my ROM with RSD Lite v6.1.5. Flashed successfully. BUT PROBLEM REMAINS THE SAME! While rebooting goes to updating the ROM and fails.
Thank you!

Thank you so much for your reply, BUT no success so far.
Step 1. There was no SIM card, I was setting up the device without SIM, as well as no SD Card.
Step 2. Boot in recovery mode by holding together Power & Vol +, choose Factory
Step 3. It started to boot immediately after I've pressed "Factory". Since I did not perform Factory Reset before, the data has not been erased (???) after boot, so phone was set up with my old wifi settings and working
Step 4. Did the same step as 3.
Step 5. Inserted SIM card (first time), and boot normally
Step 6. The same problem remains: droid is trying to install something with an error. I boot via Power & Vol + with option "Normal powerup". After booting all data erased.
May be there are some files missed for normal booting, but only from recovery mode...I do not Know
Thank you for getting into it!

Please repeat the instructions but instead of booting in "factory mode", choose recovery. This will bring up an Android who is lying on their side. Hold Vol + and Vol- then press the power button, and choose factory reset from that menu.

I tried to do that but it does not allow me to get into Recovery! Little green Droid appears and constantly updates with an error. Pressing and holding vol+ vol - and power in any state of phone shows just black screen,
I can choose and boot with: Normal powerup, AP Fastboot, Factory and BP Tools. BUT NOT RECOVERY.... After pressing "Recovery" - green droid appears.
And also, when I fully turn off the phone with USB cable connected, it again selfbooting with green droid!

Oh, I do thank you, Darbness, for help. When after pressing "Recovery" droid appears I press and hold vol - and vol+ and - nothing happens. Also other time tried power & vol + & vol -. It just turns off.
Then I tried through sdk toools in command window from "DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility" using command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" I flashed this boot image. Now after normal power off and normal power on I receive message "Fastboot Reason: Flash Falilure". Acctually at least the device doesn't erase the data every time (even if from normal phone's menu "Factory Reset") But still I need to press Vol+ & Power to boot through "Normal powerup".
I will try to flash stock now again. But please MAY BE there is a way to fix fastboot now??
I'd appreciate your help in any case.
[EDITED] NO! Again droid appears, doesn't react on any combinations and then fails! I'm doing it all the day today... And there is no service center in Cyprus where I'm based now

Don't use any DROID utilities, since those aren't compatible with XT925.
You can boot again in AP Fastboot, then connect the computer to the phone and use the following commands with the SDK tools:
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
Once that is finished, flash your phone back to the German stock you flashed originally.
Keep us posted.
Also, the recovery is different, hold VOL- and VOL+ and while holding, press the power button quickly to bring up a menu...

I did what you said with fastboot commands. The phone has now the original problem (selfrebooting)
BUT I cannot get to any other menu but only those in attachments.
When the phone is fully turned off:
1) I press vol+ and Power and hold until menu IMG_3455.JPG appears
2) I press Vol - vol + and quick press and release Power and menu IMG_3457.JPG appears (seems the same)
3) I press Vol - vol + and long press Power - nothing
When the phone is switched on in ANY state (normal operating, green droid, while booting):
1) I press Vol - vol + and quick press and release Power - nothing
2) I press Vol - vol + and long press Power - the phone reboots and then gets to green droid
Green droid is looking like IMG_3458.JPG
Both menus options:
Normal powerup - starts and operates normally
Recovery - goes to green droid operating forever
AP Fastboot - goes to fastboot mode
Factory - starts and operates normally
BP Tools - starts and operates normally but when connected to PC requires additional drivers which I cannot find in Internet IMG_3460.JPG
And when I connect usb to switched off phone it starts to boot and gets to green operating droid.
This is nightmare. My wife is going to divorŅe!! help to save our lifes!

1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEY together + POWER KEY .
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to SELECT
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL DOWN key, then tap and release the VOL UP key.
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 5, try a force reboot by pressing the power Key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to wipe cache partition and the POWER Key to SELECT this option.
8. The device will then perform the partition wipe
Many thanks to motorola for this one. Getting some use today.

Hello,
I had an issue of my Nexus 5 restarting whenever I tried to unlock the screen. Since, I have searched several websites and found that I need to do a factory reset to fix the issue. And, I followed the below steps:
1.If your phone is on, power it off.
2.Press & hold Volume Down and Volume Up, and then press & hold Power simultaneously until the device turns on. You will see the word Start with an arrow drawn around it.
3.Press Volume Down twice to designate Recovery mode.
4.Press Power to restart into Recovery mode. You will see an image of an Android robot with a red exclamation mark.
5.While holding down Power, press Volume Up.
6.Use the volume keys to scroll to "wipe data/factory reset" and press Power to select it.
7.Scroll down to "Yes - erase all user data" and press Power to select it.
When everything is completed. I tried restarting the phone by clicking the power button, and what I see is the Boot Animation . Waited for an hour, two , three and five. Still i see the same. Please help me. I tried to search for similar posts with no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Stock recovery wipes everything AFAIK so your user data and the OS are gone... You have to flash the stock build (factory images) or take the opportunity to flash a new recovery and a custom rom.
EDIT: maybe not I actually never used it.

It doesn't touch /system or /boot. Only /data, but not excluding /data/media like custom recovery would

Here is what I found for 2nd gen. resetting:
External Reset (KitKat)
If you are unable to access the phone's menu to perform the standard reset you can attempt an external factory reset.
Notes:
When using this feature; everything is deleted from the device.
Reset will require a minimum battery level of 25%. If you are unable to perform a reset, please charge for 20-30 minutes and try reset again.
1. With the phone powered off, press the VOL DOWN KEY for 2-3 seconds then POWER key then release.
2. The device will display different BOOT OPTIONS
3. Use the VOL DOWN Key to SCROLL to Recovery and VOL UP Key to select
Tip: If the device reboots, you may have waited to long to make a selection, you will need to begin the process again.
4. The device will display the Motorola logo and then the Android in distress ( logo with Exclamation mark)
5. Press and hold the VOL UP key for 10-15 seconds. While still holding the VOL UP key tap and release the POWER key
Tip: You can try this step, holding the phone in landscape. If you are stuck on step 6, try a force reboot by pressing the Power key and Vol Down key, and start the process again.
6. The device will display additional menu options (Text will appear in BLUE)
7. Use the VOL DOWN Key to scroll to Wipe data / factory reset and the POWER Key to select this option
8. Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and press the POWER key to CONFIRM
9. Once the Formatting is complete, press the POWER key to confirm a REBOOT
10. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence
