This was the hardware hard reset path for the lumia icon. may work the same for other lumias. I did the hard reset and I swear this feels like a totally different operating system compared to the upgrade path. (Did not restore any backups)
1. Turn the power Off.
2. Press and hold the Volume down and connect the charger or the USB cable with PC, for about 8 seconds, you will see an exclamation mark (!) on the screen. Note: If you do not press any of the following keys, then the phone wp8 will starts boot normally.
Then press the keys in this exact order:
1. Volume up
2. Volume down
3. Power
4. Volume down
The phone will reset and restart. Please note this may take a few minutes.
All data will be lost!
Does this work on ICON?
Would also like to add that once you are up and running check for updates. My icon is currently downloading and installing 29 updates from the beta store and quite a few of them are system updates.

After resetting my phone I now have a full screen of tiles compared to a bit ago when they was all mashed up all over the place, but the phone app now loads up.
A few issues so far are that.
1. Apps can take a tad longer to open up.
2. Loading all my music took awhile to add within the Music app.
3. Touch is a bit speedy, but not a big issue atm.
Overall this is much better than the last preview and will most probably continue to use it on my main phone for the time being.
Weird thing I did notice is that i was looking for the Cortana app but I found it on the Search app.
The same to me. I have to use Lumia Recovery Tool. Now, I am on 8.1
Piece of ****, no other way to put it.... I installed 10080 and had a endless loading screen, went back to 8.1, Tried this build on my ICON, endless reboot loop...
Phone boots, see the Windows logo for a split second, goes to gears, shuts off after 10 seconds, hit the power button and rinse and repeat....
Tried to hard reset, no matter what I tried (following above directions), I would never get a exclamation point, tried about 10 times (I have done it before, so, know how it's done)
After 2 attempts will fully NON-WORKING phones, I guess I am done for a while. I guess I need to see very little posts with install issues and hear the word "stable" before I attempt it again...
Lumia Software Recovery tool is my savior !
The update normally won't proceed uless you have 50% or more remaining battery. So during the update, it consumed all of that remaining power which to me is problem.ok... I think I may have ruined my 1520
The phone was almost towards the end of the spinning gears when my battery died and now it's stuck in a loop. Every time I plug it in the charger, it boots up then goes straight to the spinning gears. Seconds later, it reboots since the battery doesn't have a full charge. I tried getting to the exclamation screen to see if it will charge without going to the spinning gears again, but no luck...
Any ideas??

Mine is also same. Stuck at resuming / loading screen. My tiles screen is black and always says loading. But i can slide settings pane, and can open spartan with button. But my tiles screen is black. Any fix for this?
Did you folks heed the warning posted in the blog? I posted it above.
