You can't flash anything on stock recovery, ever.
Only updates will install, as an update, not to unbrick.
You will have to flash stock firmware xml.zip
With RSD Lite or mfastboot, see index for Links.

Hi, I have install RSD lite, and drivers, RSD see my phone but don't flash the firmware.
The links of the guide unfortunately aren't available, I have dowload firmware from https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Droid Bionic (XT875)/Stock/ the VRZ_XT875_5.9.905.XT875.Verizon.en.US_CFC.xml but RSD say failed flashing process... Maybe I wrong..but I don't know where....
Have you some help?
Edit: in fastboot mode the telephone say cannot program. Maybe is the USB cable? i use a normal USB cable.

The drivers in windows are ok(like your video). Do you wanna know what the RDS say or the telephone?
During flash:
AP fastboot flash mode(S)
0A.61
Battery low(sometimes ok but no longer)
Cannot program (sometimes ok program)
Transfer mode
Usb connect
When I charge with power bank the red led is off.
Unfortunately I buy this phone without original cable(I use the cable of my xperia) and it comes from USA, in Italy it wasn't sold..
RDS read the phone, start program but at step 1/22 say failed.

Device cannot be flashed with battery low
See low battery options in
Moto Drivers, Firmware, RSD Lite, and other Unbricking Tools
Or get something like

Hi, battery ok, ok to program, but RDS say: Failed Flashing Process. 6/22 flash "cdt.bin" -> phone returned FAIL
I have try 2 firmwares but nothing.
Edit: I have flash a CDMA TARGA 9.8.2O-72_VZW-22_1ff, phone reboot but I don't have a sim card.
Maybe the firmware now is old? because without sim before brick it starts.
Edit 2: I have found an old sim(not working) and phone is starts. Thank you for all Sd_shadow, now i want CM13 or lineage os...

I don't know what i do....but I have an half problem.
Why half? Because the Slimkat on first slot of Safestrap going well, but in the stock rom partition the OS don't exist..
If I reboot in recovery I see only the green android with a red alert triangle but Slim it's ok.
What can I do? flash a custom rom on stock rom partition?

Super N00B question here. i dug out an old XT875, currently android version 4.1.2, and i want to make it a WearOS device. ive been using it as a wifi pandora player for a few weeks, but i want to know if installing WearOS will let me 1) listen to pandora thru bluetooth earpiece, 2) because it has WearOS i can see notifications from my REAL phone without having my real phone near me (bluetooth communication), and 3) if running this mobile OS will give better than the 14hr battery life i've been getting.
thanks in advance Y'all
thanks in advance Y'all
i figured, but was also hoping someone had dabbled in this (oddly specific) endeavor before. ill admit that i am not very good at building a ROM, last time i did for my s4, i ended up bricking it and getting a new phone .... it doesnt HAVE to be WearOS per se, but if it can perform the same functions as listed above, through a Rom that already exists, that would be fine. i want to make the Bionic "WearOS like" bc lets be real, who wouldnt want a 4 1/4" android watch!
anyone willing to assist for a commission?

Quote by cellzealot "SBF is a file type and stands for Single Binary File that is the older format of Motorola flash files for use with RSD lite or other flash tools.
They include all of the code groups, header files and checksums as well as a RAM Downloader for all of the device partition images in a single file and flashed from the legacy boot loader enumerated as a flash device.
The new format for all dual core Motorola devices is zip archive of fastboot images and an XML file that can be used with RSD lite to flash in a single operation or flashed as individual images using the fastboot binary and DLLs in the Android SDK from the fastboot boot loader and enumerated as an ADB device.
These are entirely different modes of access and operation and SBF is both wrong and a misnomer for the firmware files for current devices.
The fast boot interface provides far more flexibility and safety for flashing than the old flash interface and avoids all kinds of problems that would arise from managing and updating he firmware on newer chipset devices.
It is an extremely important distinction to make and understanding to have about how these phones work.
Please stop using SBF when referring to XML.zip files.
The current acronym for Motorola firmware files is FXZ and means Full XML ZIP file."
.SBF, XML.zip and tar.gz" are Official Motorola file extensions[SIZE=+1]Q13: Can I use the Droid Bionic, without activating with a carrier (WiFi only)?[/SIZE]*1
two options for Factory reset
In Rom: Perform a Factory Data Reset (Device Powered On) - DROID BIONIC by MOTOROLA
In Recovery> Perform a Factory Data Reset (Device Powered Off) - DROID BIONIC by MOTOROLA
gingerbread: motofail_windows.zip by DjrBliss
ICS: razrs_edge root by DjrBliss
Jellybean: [ROOT] Saferoot (Jellybean) with Video
or Rootmaster.apk
Freeze Bloatware
I would use Titanium Backup pro app to freeze the bloatware
Not sure what that means, bootloader is already locked, or baseband locked.
It will need to be Straight talk's Verizon network option, if it's still available.1

You must continue using safestrap, just install cm13 on stock slot, in safestrap's recovery (twrp)
