so after following the instrucions down below, I can't access TWRP recovery. Everytime I go to the recovery from bootloader, it will restart the phone automatically. I made a backup before doing this, but now i can't even get into recovery mode from boot loader
Installing recovery using fastboot
You can use fastboot to install your recovery image to the device.
Installing ClockworkMod Recovery on the One (Sprint)
Download koush's ClockworkMod Recovery.
koush's ClockworkMod Recovery: download
md5: 8e1001f45ad07d4cda03b813739f85c1
Connect the One (Sprint) to the computer via USB.
Make sure the fastboot binary is in your PATH or that you place the downloaded image in the same directory as fastboot.
Open a terminal on your PC and reboot the device into fastboot mode by typing adb reboot bootloader or by using the hardware key combination.
Once the device is in fastboot mode, verify your PC sees the device by typing fastboot devices
If you don't see your device serial number, and instead see "<waiting for device>", fastboot is not configured properly on your machine. See fastboot documentation for more info.
Flash ClockworkMod Recovery onto your device by entering the following command: fastboot flash recovery your_recovery_image.img where the latter part is the name of the file you downloaded.
Once the flash completes successfully, reboot the device into recovery to verify the installation.
Note: Some ROMs overwrite recovery at boot time so if you do not plan to immediately boot into recovery to install CyanogenMod, please be aware that this may overwrite your custom recovery with the stock one.

put here the link of guide you followed
also the link of download of recovery
I tried to flash back to recovery, but I used
HTML:
TMO_RETAIL_XT1053_5.1.0-LPAS23.12-15.5-1_CFC.xml
, which I'm pretty sure means I'm gonna have a bad time.
I can't flash the LPA23.12 because I get an error doing fastboot flash partition gpt.bin and it screws up my partitions.
I can flash twrp, but that doesn't help me much. I can get to stock recovery, but that doesn't help me much either.
Things I've tried:
Clearing cache/dalvik
Factory reset
Flashing OTA_XT1053_Rooted.zip with TWRP
Running all the fastboot commands for LPA-23.12-15.5-0
Running all the fastboot commands for LPAS-23.12-15.5-0
Restoring someone elses recovery
I have a Windows 10 VM on my Mac, and while fastboot on Windows sees the phone, I can't get it to show up in RDS Lite 2.6.4. Moto Device Manager and Drivers have been installed.
Any ideas? :crying:
Any help appreciated here, I have been searching the forums all morning, but haven't found the same issue as mine (lots of stuck at google ?'s but none from failed upgrade) last night I decided to take the plunge and update my N6 from build 6.0.1 (MOB31H, Oct 2016) to 7.0.0 (NBD90Z, Oct 2016)
I typically use the WugFresh NRT to upgrade via factory image. Last night I decided to give the OTA images a try.
Everything was going smoothly until I bumped my keyboard tray and my phone became disconnected while still flashing. It was almost done too.....it was at the point of flashing the system image and was interrupted at 83% and it failed install.
I then attempted to recover from this by flashing entire factory image for 7.0 but it doesn't seem to want to mount my device. I then tried to go back and flash 6.01 to device using the softbrick/bootloop function from the NRT toolkit. It seemed to partially work as the size of the word google on the screen changed during boot went smaller (so I assume the boot.img was able to flash?) but I am still stuck at the google logo with the unlock at the bottom. Bright side is device is bootloader unlocked.
If I try the recover from bootloop function on the NRT it seems to have trouble sending files to phone (goes through all the process just doesn't take it looks like it sending files but before each at beginning it doesn't seem to connect to device.
I can access bootloader, and recovery. In recovery I tried to wipe/cache (wipes but doesn't help), tried factory reset (wipes but still stuck at Google), tried to mount system through selecting via recovery and it fails.
Not sure which image I should try to flash now to recover 6.01 or 7.0 or if I can even recover from this? Any suggestions are appreciated.
When I first got my phone I did create a backup using the NRT but that was on I think 5.0 or 5.01 and I no longer have twrp installed, should I try putting twrp on it and restoring that back up? It was a long time ago and I am not sure if it will cause radio or boot img issues...since I have upgraded so far past without making another backup with a newer version.
I have read that some others with similar issues that were told to use the N beta to get a clean flash.....only issue is there is no longer a N beta for Nexus 6......it now only shows 7.01 for 6p, 5x, and pixel.
Should I try flashing twrp and a ROM? And after see if I can get to load that way then go back and flash stock image?
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

This requires you unlock your bootloader. You will be installing a custom recovery. Root is not needed though.

Thank You Dirty_Jerz! I really appreciate the help.
I am now back up and running on 7.0!
I dirty flashed a new version of xiaomi.eu stable build, and it caused TWRP to uninstall itself.
Whenever I hold power on and volume up it just goes to fastboot.
Now I tried reinstalling TWRP like I've done many times before, but it keeps throwing an error. The error I get is when trying to boot without flashing the img. When I do this, I get the error:
Code:
fastboot boot TWRP.img"
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 1.609s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)
finished. total time: 1.675s
Anyone gotten any ideas on what could be going on here? I'm scared to try anything as my phone currently works, but I need TWRP back to update my phone to a different versions and to install the clock mod again.
Thanks!
Got it to load once, but now back to square one. Throwing same error.
Now when running the command fastboot reboot recovery it's saying
Code:
fastboot: usage: unknown reboot target recovery
And writing 'fastboot boot twrp.img' turns the phone off / makes the screen go black. Fully bricked now as the OS wont load either.
Try on a computer with a USB 2.0 port, or a different usb cable, had the same issue once
Ended up having to reinstall dev rom. Device relocked, so have to wait 15 days again. @BusterBg_18 Thanks, will do when I unlock the device
EDIT: When using Mi Flash tool, make sure to check 'clean all' and not 'clean all and lock' in the bottom right. That's what set me back 2 weeks.
I have the same error. How can I fix this pls?

Flash the latest official rom then start all over again. Follow the post above you about miflash.
Hello, I've had the same problem, then flashed latest dev rom via MiFlash and it booted, but now after I flash any custom ROM in TWRP i have this issue again and need to reflash chinese ROM. How can I flash any custom rom?
i'm stuck in the same issue. stuck in fastboot and it would not load recovery. any fix?
Hi, i fixed the "Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error" by simply restarting the Device.
It seems to appear randomly when flashing partitions and then block all further Transfers.
If the Device loops in Fastboot, the only Solution to me was re flashing the Stock Firmware.

I have the same Issue, but reflashing Stock Firmware or making OTA Updates dident helped for me. Ive already tried TWRP and OrangeFox without success. The Screen always turns black and Fastboot stays active in an limited Mode, any Ideas? My host Computer only has 3.0+ Ports only, but ive used an 2.0 Extender so it should be fine?

long time ago now. but i remember at one point having to flash the stock firmware using the mi unlock tool. i also remember trying every single version of twrp and rom until one finally worked. sorry i can't help much but i believe that's how i eventually fixed it.

this methode help me out from it.
try to reflashing some file image from the rom where youre want to install in hh with adb.
copy this files below from rom image to adb folder

2. boot.img (command in adb like #1, change the name of img file) do till #6
3. vendor.img
4. dtbo.img
5. cust.img
6. misc.img
7. now flashing twrp/recovery.img (choose twrp compatible with rom you want to install) with adb

all img files come from the official rom china stable V12.0.2.0.QEBCNXM (.tgz), download and extract the tgz file then find img files from images folder

BROOOOOOOOOO HAHAHAHAHAHA I LITERALLY JUST READ YOUR COMMENT AND 10 SECONDS LATER I FLASH THE ROM WITH "CLEAN ALL AND LOCK" Im a f-king dumb bro
Marihot said:
你好，我也经历过同样的事情。
这个方法帮助我摆脱它。
尝试使用 adb 从要在 hh 中安装的 rom 中重新刷新一些文件映像。
将下面的文件从 rom 映像复制到 adb 文件夹
1.system.img（adb >> fastboot flash system system.img中的命令）
2. boot.img（adb 中的命令，如#1，更改 img 文件的名称）直到 #6
3. 供应商.img
4.dtbo.img
5. 自定义.img
6. 杂项.img
7. 现在用adb刷twrp/recovery.img（选择twrp与你要安装的rom兼容）
8. adb 的“fastboot boot recovery.img”
9. twrp刷入rom

Thank you, brother
try fastboot set_active a
or fastboot set_active b
after unlocking, falshind twrp and wipeing the complete device I can't do anything at all now.
I can boot in twrp or to fastboot but the device can't be found in either modes.
I tried to mount the sd card or MTP but they don't do anything either. Also tried to sideload onto the device but of course it doesn't work.
I'm all out of ideas what to do now. Anybody got some ideas what I could try?
Extract system from fastboot firmware and flash in fastboot with command fastboot flash system system.img after flashing system flash twrp and install rom or simply just flash fastboot firmware with Miflash
yes, thank you very much. this was the trick!
you get everything bacc up and running ok?
