1. download and install RSD Lite 5.7 ,other versions may work fine
2. download your recovery firmware image (.sbf or .xml) try looking here or here

if ends in .gz, .7z,or .rar uncompress with 7 Zip or other file-compression utility
if it ends in .zip rsd lite can uncompress it for you
3. install moto drivers

boot moto device to bootloader
connect to pc via usb
usb data cable (original motorola prefered)

to view Device Properties, click on S Flash, under Model column
if rsd lite can not see you device read Driver errors
select Start
error: if you see MEM_MAP Blank, on the phone, you use an incompatible file, try the newest version
make sure file is for you device model
Wiping Data:
before (or after) flashing sbf, wiping data in android recovery is recommended
if you choose not to wipe data, at least wipe cache, if phone bootloops you have no choice, but to wipe data
Bootlooping
if phone starts bootlooping, and you can not get to recovery try
pull battery,
press and hold R,
reinsert battery, if it does not start to boot, press power,
when you see !, triangle, and Andy, release R,
then press both volume buttons to continue to android recovery
Notice: if you disconnect phone from pc, before phone has finished rebooting, and then try to close rsd lite, you may get a warning from rsd lite, about damaging your device
don’t worry about it phone will be fine, as long as flashing is done
Activation and skipping activation:
if phone reboots to activation screen, touch android to activate or if you do not wish to activate with verizon, use four corners activation skip
