Lumia 520 messed up after WP10 TP

I installed WP10 TP on my 520 yesterday and the phone has gotten completely messed up since then:

All apps crash
Phone and messaging apps don't open'
No change in the UI from WP8.1.1 except in the action center and keyboard
Project Spartan not there
None of the WP 10 features are available.
It looks the same as WP 8.1

Please Advice
Thanks!

thisis a bug. already experienced by many of the users with L520. currently there is no solution to that. you could try hard reset. But the best option will be to roll back to 8.1 and wait for future builds that will be much more stable . good day

Re: Lumia 520 messed up after WP10 TP

Are u sure its the WP10 TP and not the WP 8.1 update 2 which was seeded for many users during last release? If that's thre case then check for updates again.
And do a hard reset after the update it should fix some issues but ofcse a lot of things are expected to go wrong anyway and maybe even worse on W10 TP ur about to get. So if it is ur only phone then its better if u not put the TP on it since it could severely hamper everyday usage. Unless ofcse ur ready to hard reset and flash back to 8.1 frequently when things do go wrong...

Bud. Had the same issue with my 730. Download on a pc "windows phone recovery tool", it will wipe your device clean and reinstall the factory software for that said device. Did it on my 730 and running 8.1 again with no problems.

I had some problems with Wp10 TP. All I did was hard reset and everything is now running smoothly. A bit lag here and there but I am happy there are no major problems.
