I bricked my 520, how can I unbrick it?

Disguised my 520 as 630, how am I supposed to remove the disguise?

Perhaps, you should have considered that, before you did it ? Did you have a plan ?
You did read this is a risky proposition, perhaps you shouldn't have tried it.
try LSRT ... or RTFM.

Sounds like an ID ten T error - poster boy # 2 - keep 'em coming

Do a factory reset of the phone.

NO, just a purveyor of the TRUTH.

That's it?? no voodoo stuff to do?
thanx

I highly doubt a factory rest will unbrick a phone like that, most likely you need to download the windows phone recovery software from here FAQ - How can I recover/reset/restore my phone software? - Microsoft - USA

And yes, if you didn't know this recovery tool exists, then you should absolutely not of been hacking your phone, and you really shouldn't even be using the TP. Please be more careful.

...and you missed the Windows 10 for Phones Forum, choosing to seek help for this phone hack issue in the general Windows 10 area...

I hope your phone gets back to normal and you leave it that way until you study more on the processes involved.

I did a factory reset to my Lumia 521 with Windows 10 before trying to roll back to Windows 8.1, and ended up bricking the phone in the process of rolling back with the Recovery Tools... LOL

I assumed the OP was just asking how to set his phone back to the real model, and you do that by simply resetting the phone. My bad if it was more involved than that.

hmmmmmm ...

he bricked his phone (how many bricked phones are out there, two in this thread) maybe tough words will prevent the next occurrence (highly doubtful, but ...)

maybe you & I can mess with this early build (I choose NO), but the rest of them, that's a big don't go there!
