I figured it out!
I went to a blank computer and installed the T-Mobile Apps from scratch then the first thing I did after the reboot from the ActiveSync install...was rand the ROM upgrader (CUSTOM_RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe)
....PRESTO.....
What I saw was the driver used when the phone goes into the Boot Loader screen (RED, GREEN, BLUE). It stated "USB Device" as the driver was loading in Windows XP...after it stated device ready to be used....it started!
I would suggest unistalling ActiveSync and reinstalling it from the T-Mobile Disc....this should work!
PM me if you have any problems.
Hi, I had this same problem after a bad flash. couldn't get ActiveSync to connect, Thought phone was F***ed, Got it going again tho
What I did was search the forun for file mtty
1) download and run. Must turn off A/S connect via usb first
2) When mtty rund it asks for a port. Select usb
3) Click ok, press enter on next screen then type "SET 14 0" press enter
4) Close this program and re enable A/S connect via usb
5) Re Flash with Rom File and it all went ok for me.
Note all my phone would do when Reset (Hard or Soft) was give the three colour screen
Ok I've the Russian fastboot ROM installed on the phone and in the process and this is as far as I get
Code:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
C:\android-sdk-windows\tools>fastboot.exe flash recovery C:\misc.img
(and I've tried the other recovery.img also)
< waiting for device >
I've tried that plugging in and out of different USB drives as suggested by a few people
I've a feeling it's something to do with the drivers, could someone please post a link to the suitable drivers for this, because whenever I plug it in it say "new Device found: Android" and then I click on the bubble and try to install the suggested driver but it fails to find any driver for it.
Your Android USB moderm disabled?

Thanks alot !! :good: :good: :good: I really really appreciate it !! I searched so much on the web before I posted and none was helpful, you should make a post explaining this method and giving it a good tag so it go on the top google search*
I really thankful
Everytime I connect my USB cable it asks if I want to allow USB debugging and shows me the RSA fingerprint of the pc. I check the mark to always allow it, but it still keeps asking every time I connect. It just doesn't wanna remember the PC. Any suggestions?
I tried removing the .android folder on the PC that's located in the User map.

Where does it say this and at what point? Your phone is 100% stock then, correct? You set up adb correctly?
We'll need more information than supplied. You should walk us through step by step

I was having the exact same problem last night, following the same instructions. I still could not figure out how to sideload the OTA, so I ended up just flashing the update and starting from fresh. Wish I had the answer for you.
Here was my thread asking pretty much the same thing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/disconnects-computer-entering-bootloader-t3230705

100% Stock, yes! 1 week old.
Yes i have set up ADB
I have followed the instruction until this part (i cannot post any link sorry, not authorized by xda)
The following ADB commands are for Windows machines. If you’re using a Mac, just add “./” before each command, for example: “./adb reboot bootloader”.
Assuming you device is already connected to your computer via USB and USB Debugging is enabled, you need to re-start it in fastboot mode. Follow one of the two methods below. Option A may be preferable because it’s another confirmation that your computer recognizes your Nexus device.
A) Type “adb reboot bootloader”
B) Turn your device off, then turn it back on while holding down the relevant key combinations for your device. For many devices it’s Volume Up + Volume Down + Power. You can see what your device’s key combinations are here.
The fastboot menu will appear and you should see Start in the top right. Press Volume Up till it changes to Recovery. Press the Power button to select it.
You will see an Android with a red exclamation point icon, press and hold the Power key, then press the Volume up key to show the Recovery Menu.
You will get a new menu. Navigate to apply update from adb and select it by pressing the Power button.
In the command window — make sure you are in the directory where ADB and Fastboot reside — type: “adb sideload [the full name of the file].zip” without the brackets around the file name.
The update will install and reach 100 percent.
Reboot and enjoy the latest version of Android Marshmallow.

(red arrow) and then the cmd says the null error, i am trying this now
I had the same problem. Turned MTP on and then it worked. You're told to turn it off but don't... Its in Settings-Storage-touch the ... Menu top right corner, USB settings and turn ON MTP mode. It worked well for me. I also used the Nexus Root Toolkit - makes things much easier!

There are lots of additional steps in that guide and not always the simplest way of doing it.
First thing to do is boot into recovery.
- Turn off the phone.
- Hold volume down + power
- At the bootloader screen, use volume keys to navigate to recovery and press power to select#
- At the Red warning triangle, hold power then press volume up.
At this stage, type "adb devices" in your command prompt and see if it returns your serial number or not. If it does, you can follow the steps to use adb to flash the update.
Please note, the guide talks about USB debugging. This only works in android. Nothing you need to do needs to be done via android so this is nonsense. Also the MTP option only works in android, so setting this in settings as a fix is also nonsense.

Could be a driver issue. You'll need to check device manager. Perhaps uninstall the existing drivers and let it auto detect.
Failing that, install the Naked driver from my adb and fastboot thread (Nexus 6 general > Sticky roll-up thread > Adb and fastboot. What is it?)
I had the same issue with you until i did the following: I used wugfresh's nexus utility. Then I downloaded the respective file from XDA and saved it in the same folder as the Wugfresh's tool. Restarted in Recovery mode and chose 'update from adb'. Connected the phone with the usb having USB debugging on from before going to recovery. Started the CMD window from Wugfresh's tool (Advanced Utilities -> Launch) and check that the phone is connected (I think "adb devices") . Then "adb sideload xxxx.zip" and waited for the process to finish.
Instruction here: androidpolice 2012/11/13/android-4-2-build-jop40c-rolling-out-to-the-nexus-7-now-manual-download-link-available/
You do not have to install the full Android utility. Just use wugfresh;s cmd screen. Good luck!
