ADB Devices

Evening all, so I was trying to flash a stock ROM (turned into trying all 4 below) over my current ROM (latest stock OTA from Verizon + Root) however I wiped cache, dalvick and factory reset before I did. Just my luck, didn't work. So now I'm trying to go through with SDK and flash various ROMs I have... Blur_Version.6.16.217.XT894.Verizon.en.US, D4_deodexed_JB_98.72.18, cdma_maserati_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-2_1ff.xml, VRZ_XT894_6.7.2-180_DR4-16_M2-37_1FF, however my device isn't showing up on ADB, I just get a blank list when I cmd adb devices. I've tried different USB ports and resintalling the Motorola drivers. Any other thoughts? Thanks.
 
Gotta cover the bases so bear with me...

What OS? Windows, Linux?

Is ADB installed? If so is it set up properly and are you opening the command window where ADB is?

Windows 7 64 bit, yes it's installed I believe it's set up correctly and yes I've got the folder in my command prompt.
 
I tried to flash the boot.img from the one of the unzipped ROMs I have and cmd prompt said writing "recovery".... (bootloader) Preflash validation failure FAILED (remote: ) finished. total time blah blah. Thoughts?
 
I also tried flashing a couple different ZIPs I have with RSD lite and kept getting this error... "Failed flashing process. 6/17 flash cdt.bin 'cdt.bin' -> Phone returned FAIL." Any thoughts?

fastboot flash boot.img ??? You need an unlocked bootloader to do that.

The only thing you can flash with RSD lite are the signed files for your device and they should not be zipped.

Great, is it an .img file and where can I get it?
 
ok lets start over, you are trying to restore stock rom?
on a Droid 4 (XT894)?
several ways to do this
1 How to Use RSD Lite to flash a .XML Stock Rom
2 DROID 4 Utility XT894 Jellybean
3 unbrick Moto device with an update.zip or xml using moto-fastboot.exe

any of those methods will fail if drivers are incorrect or you re flashing wrong version of files
for drivers read drivers issues and windows device manager

which fastboot version is on phone? but if you want jellybean, fastboot version does not matter
but you can not downgrade
ICS is version ( 0A.74)
Jellybean is version ( 0A.77)
gingerbread is ( 0A.6C )

edit: ok links should work now

I am looking for 0A.77 and I'm good with options 1 or 3, I just don't have the right files. Blur_Version.6.16.217.XT894.Verizon.en.US, D4_deodexed_JB_98.72.18, cdma_maserati_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-2_1ff.xml, VRZ_XT894_6.7.2-180_DR4-16_M2-37_1FF are what I've been working with.

download from here Droid-Developers SBF
verify Verify that your download is complete with MD5/SHA-1 Hash Checksums
check the windows device manager
use RSD Lite 5.7 or 6.1.4 -Dev_Host
you don't have to unzip firmware if they end in 'xml.zip'

you can flash a boot.img, with moto-fastboot.exe, on the DX2, D3, and D4... as long as its the official one from the update or an xml
