Ok, I have tried google and search and can't get any help, I can't access the recovery on a xt926, it is rooted and unlocked on 4.4.2 but I can't get it to load from the PWR/ VOL UP menu immediately after flashing either twrp, or cwm. when I try to use fastboot to flash the recovery I get told that the variable is not supported but then it continues with flashing and says it's complete but obviously doesn't work.

Any ideas?

I have an XT925. I got the latest DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.41. Used that included TWRP 2.7.1.0 specifically for the XT 925.

Make sure you have the most recent drivers for your PC to recognize the XT925.

Boot to fastboot.

Connect the phone and make sure it is recognized.

Flash into the recovery partition the above TWRP.

yes, I also received the 'variable not supported' message. But the flash does confirm completion.

Once the flash is completed, unplug the phone. Then a quick press and release of the power switch to turn off. Once off, use simultaneous power and Volume+- press to get into boot menu. From there, select Recovery option and you should get into TWRP.

This worked for me after I thought I had completely bricked my XT925.

Cheers

Power phone off and press volume up, down, and power buttons simultaneously and hold them until you see white text with boot options. Scroll down to recovery and press vol up. Of thia still doesn't work, then you may be flashing a bad recovery image.
