Lumia 920 stuck in restart loop after upgrading to 14322

Redstone has been working fine with 14295, but after upgrading to 14322 I'm stuck in a restart loop, only reaching the Nokia logo on each cycle.

I have tried Recovery tool but it won't detect my phone.
I have tried Vol down > Exclamation mark > Vol up, vol down, power, wol down, but the phone restarts on pressing the power button.

Any suggestions would be aprechiated.

i came with this same problem... lol. we are gonna get ignored or dragged for messing with the registry lol.

my device recovery tool aparently detected my device and it's currently downloading the firmware hope it works, hard resseting didn't.

Hi,
I have got the same problem with my Lumia 830. The recovery tool could download the software but the Installation failed. Hard reset did not work.

It worked for me. Currently on 8.1 and about to sign up on insider app.

Did you tried again?

Well, I tried with both Windows Device Recovery Tool and Nokia Software update for retail. None of them will even detect that the phone is connected. Going for a complete battery drain now and crossing fingers.

I've spent all night yesterday to get the phone unbricked.

you will need two things:
1) WPinternals 1.2
2) the original FFU (firmware) that comes with your model. google: lumiafirmware

given the phone was not in stable connection even when connecting to the pc through usb (it was recycling) I found it necessary to click on the "flash original ffu" in WPInternals as soon as it detects it. The red nokia engineering screen will light up and keep your fingers and toes cross then.

let me know if this helps. it will get the phone back to 8.1 state.

When caught in a loop cycle always try to remove the sim as soon as it powers down, before it powers back up.

You guys still installing W10 builds!! I gave up on Windows 10 long ago on my Lumia 920. I am thinking of waiting for the last build they will ship on Lumia 920 and then decide whether to go there. Till then 8.1 which I feel has a better design than 10.

BTW, how do you get to those builds? Registry hack? Just curious and not in a mood to Google or Boing.

Same for me. WDRT did work for me (My phone was not detected, then restarted multiple times till it switched to flashing mode and started downloading the firmware)
