do a hard reset of your phone first. then attach the phone to lumia recovery tool and try again. maybe a bug with wp10 TP is causing this error. good day.

i cant do the hard reset. i cant get into the os, i tried a hard reset (hold down volume down button after it vibrates at power up) but it doesnt work either. any more suggestions?

hi! i dont remember actually how i did it but something worked for me back then. it was a nokia tool that was pushing the firmware in the phone. so the program was asking for your phone model, asked you to place the firmware and then it did the rest. i am sorry but i dont know what was its name. i had to do that 3 or 4 times cuz i was getting stuck at some point in installation but every time was getting closer to finish. search for that tool. i think it was a video about a lumia 720 or something that was teaching you how to do it. im sorry i cant help you any more. best of luck!
