RAZR HD XT925 stock recovery broken? - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My RAZR HD has stock ROM, not flashed with anything, bootloader locked, but the 4.1.2 update broke it badly.
Now 9 out of 10 times it gets in a bootloop then I see that green android (stock recovery) trying to flash some update and it dies. If I hard reset sometimes it will boot into the stock ROM but its as if everything is wiped fresh (every time it boots).
I google around and people say to get into stock recovery and wipe, but when I get to the boot menu and hit recovery it just goes blank and reboots itself and gets back in the boot loop.
Is there any hope of a fix?

RAZR HD Stuck on Fido logo

Hello guys! I'v have the problem with my RAZR HD. After i have Jelly Bean update (Fido device), i'm use it normally, but after i need to do factory reset it stucks on bootloop. i'l get out of that by pressing all heys and entering Boot Options Menu. Then i select normal booting, it loading but stuck on the fido logo. also i've tried to boot factory&bp tools but nothing gonna changes. After that i'll get bootloader unlock, and try to flash Retail German (4.1.2) fw from the Jelly Bean stock firmwares superthread. RSD flash it, but stuck on the reboot stage, than said please power up manually that phone. In this time device always rebooting - first bootloader unlocked notification than black screen than green android and again and again. I stop that cycle but holding all keys, after that trying to boot normally and boot factory but it always stuck on the fido (!!!) logo. What does it mean? RSD don't flash phone? And finally how to get phone works i don't care on what fw.

HELP! does not boot after flashing

I flashed my phone in the JB leaked were you had to delete de id.
My phone crashed so i tried to flash it again, im afraid i flashed it with ics, after a long time i was able to ind this post on how to unbrick it, because it was bricked.
i installed the retail jb brzil and it flashes with the rsd 6.0 and everyrthing and you see the android loading and everything, the flash completes without a problem.
but when it loads you get the normal moto logo and the a black screen,nothing comes up.
you can go to fastboot and evything but nothign shows after flashing the moto razr xt910
i would be gratefull if any tips can be provided on why it does not come on.
i can leave pressed down the keys and it will blink and go off.
i followed this post in order to flash it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192532
it does not boot up!
Did you wipe and factory reset?

ODIN - Stuck at boot screen.

Let me preface from saying I've had this phone and flashed countless ROMs on it.
Also the power button died on it (fast reboot etc problem) and since I had already ordered my Nexus 5 I just decided to rip the button off and use it for the few weeks until I got my new phone.
Now that its been a while I decided to see what I could do with it and wanted to boot. It wouldn't boot and was stuck at the loading screen for a good hour. So I went okay I'll just decide to use Odin and bring it back to stock. Followed the guide here to the T and 3 separate times all that happens is the phone is stuck at the S boot screen. Tried both stock roms posted.
Now since I don't have a power button I can't get into recovery (which I'm assuming is wiped but I have the Odin recovery ready to flash but whats the point?)
I tried adb/fastboot and the phone isn't recognized.
Any suggestions? Currently stuck at the boot logo for 1hr 25min. I'm aware of wiping the cache but I don't know how to do that without recovery.
Edit: So I opened the sucker again, got some foil and shorted the power button contacts and actually got to the stock recovery and did a wipe of the data and cache. Now booting fingers crossed. If this doesn't work at least I know I can get into recovery and install TWRP and a custom rom and see if that boots. However if this is a go then I'm good (only want it t run Perktv)
Edit2: So I couldn't get anything to install with TWRP (tried 3 different roms) so I went to the other recovery (Philz?)
Was able to install SlimKat (was using SlimBean when I was using the phone) and was finally able to install it... now its in a boot loop.
So I guess back to fully wiping (again) but I remember with these phones you had to do the wipe 2x which I didn't do. God I'm so spoiled with the Nexus.
Off to do that and see if that helps.
Edit3: Worked!! Woohoo

[Q] Issues with recovery flashing post Lollipop update.

I have been having this issue with flashing recovery on my Nex5 ever since I installed lollipop(factory image).
I have repeatedly tried to install TWRP (2.8.2.0) on my device but it just doesn't seem to stick no matter what I try.
Each time it gets installed but as soon the the system reboots, its gone. If I directly boot into the recovery from fastboot or bootup recoveryafter flash without restarting the bootloader, the TWRP logo shows up and then the device just restarts.
Please help me out here. Really want to go back to PA4
Thanks
You probably updated to LRX21O through OTA.
Go back to 4.4.4 through factory image. Boot system once. Reboot to bootloader. Flash twrp. Using vol keys, boot to recovery directly from bootloader. Flash PA.
