I downloaded Insider Preview last night and used the "slow" channel. The upgrade ran but at some point, my phone would restart, show the Nokia logo, skip to the gears animation and keep restarting.
When it's not plugged in, the phone just dies after showing the gears but does not restart.
Anyone had this happen? Do you know how to fix it? The recovery tool cant connect to my phone because it turns off/restarts before it gets a chance. I didnt have any luck with master reset either (can't get into the menu or to the `!` screen) but I'll give that a shot a few more times.
Lumia Software Recovery Tool or Windows Phone Recovery Tool
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA142987
I did the same thing with WP 10 and a Lumia 925
The software recovery tool does absolutely nothing. Neither does the Nokia Software Updater 4.3.2
Seems it is bricked.
i flashed back to 8.1 without problem L920 with Lumia Software Recovery Tool (now Nokia Software Recovery Tool)
flashed also more than 30 Lumia's (few bricked) and many symbian phones... recovery tool working very well...
but sometimes when you brick totally, only repair service helps

Try to do it with windows 7. It works.
Hi all,
I was using the Windows Phone Recovery Tool to revert my HTC One M8 from Windows 10 preview to Windows 8.1, and noticed that to do so I needed to put the phone into bootloader mode and have the tool "flash" (in its own words) the proper firmware on to my phone. I was wondering if it was possible to somehow direct it to an Android RUU instead? Does anybody have experience related to this?
Thanks!
Won't work. Folks have been messing with trying to get Android on the WP M8 for some time now. If it was as easy as what you are suggesting, it would have already been accomplished by now.
3 days ago i've tried to downgrade my lumia 920 from windows 10 mobile build 10536 su windows phone 8.1,but the phone blocked while flashing.Now I can't do anything,i've already tried windows recovery tool 3.0.1,nokia software updater for retail last version,lumia phone test application,nokia care suite but this doesn't work.I've tried also the guides for bricked lumias using cmd,anyone can help me,ideas?Now the phone is stucked on red screen with white nokia logo

Follow this and created it :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-phone-8/development/windows-phone-internals-unlock-t3257483
question
Does this build have project astoria in it ?
Didn't work for me, all went through but the phone got stuck in the Nokia Logo, I had to do emergency recovery and flash stock rom again. Do you still have the 10.0.10586.36 ffu?
Why do we need this? Is it not just possible to follow the instructions on WPinternals?
flash 8.1 FFU
run windows update to latest version 8.10.14219.341
unlock bootloader with engineering SBL3
run windows insider, update to win10
enable root

Now that Microsoft does not update +- 35% of their phones to windows 10
twitter.com/windowsinsider/status/710549849406513152
Is there a way that we can port android or any other os on it to protest?

But doesn't 920 have 1 Gig of RAM? So it should get the upgrade, maybe later on, like these germans say: http://www.computerbild.de/artikel/cb-Tipps-Handy-Windows-10-mobile-Lumias-Update-14148579.html

I really hope that the 1GB phones will get WM 10, it is running fine on my 920. But I would like to make a statement to Microsoft, they promised WM10 and now...
When I look at the official website, (microsoft.com/nl-nl/windows/windows-10-specifications) (Select the mobile tab)
This is being told:
Phones and devices compatible for WM10:
Lumia 1520, 930, 640, 640XL, 730, 735, 830, 532, 535, 540, 635 1GB, 636 1GB, 638 1GB, 430, 435, BLU Win HD w510u, BLU Win HD LTE x150q, MCJ Madosma Q501
So if it is true, can we port any other up-to date OS to the not supported phones? Sailfish would be the ultimate payback.
I can't seem to download the file, it just jams. I can download any other file from Mega but not this one. Do you possibly have another file, maybe the 1 you posted is corrupt.
Thanks
I know w10m is the latest and all the goodies it has, but on my 920 and in my father's 820 doesn't work too good. I'm thinking we could get the wp8.1 update 2 to get the keyboard support, but I can't get it through the insider program. Could we get it from a phone that has is and create a rom for our phone?

I have that one installed in my 920 and in my father's 820. Battery life sucks and sometimes you have to reset the phone by pressing power + vol-, and calendar doesn't allow you to see more than one month at the same time. I don't see any advantage in w10m to make me move from wp8.1 other than the bluetooth keyboard (and selfiestick) support. That's why I was asking for the wp8.1 u2 since that one introduced the bt kb support. I've seen your post at htcmania, I might try your rom, wiping everything and doing a clean install, but from what I heard, battery life would be worse than wp8.1
Sadly bootloop no way to get this installed! :/ tried both roms! SUCKS all that time I spend extracting those files....
bootloop...
and what's interesting flashing didn't even replace a provider logo — any ideas why?

Can someone upload a W10 ROM for the Lumia 920, with unlocked loader and root access. The one on this thread flashes on the phone without any errors using windows phone internals, but goes into a boot loop with the Nokia logo..
I retried the flash and did a hard reset using the details below, after it went into the Nokia Boot loop. The phone reset in about 10-15 minutes with TWO reloads and started working with Windows 10 Great. Updates downloading.....
Factory reset
With the phone turned off press and hold the Volume DOWN key and then connect the charger.
An exclamation mark should now appear.
Now press the following buttons in the exact order: Volume UP, Volume DOWN, POWER then Volume DOWN
This will now fully reset the device and restore it to factory defaults........
Hello all!
Today i was updating my room and... (fml) pc rebooted or crashed. Anyhow I'm stuck with a pretty brick. Phone is BQ Aquaris E5 FHD (although I',m open to try any other program/driver/rom that can revive it)
I tried flashing it again but it doesn't do anything. Phone get recognized by windows though (as I connect, it install the Mediatek driver) but the Smart Phone Flash Tool cant start any process. Any ideas that can bring the phone back? I have limited knowledge on phones but not on computers, if there's any linux distribution, SDK android, anything... make me know and I'lll try.
I've tried pressing buttons in all forms/variations. I think i need a program that can hard flash the phone.
Thanks in advance!
Riskke
opens the phone disconnects the battery, reconnects it, flashes the firmware, and then installs the rom.
