Lumia 520 with Windows 10 Preview: Bricked after attempted downgrade
I have a Lumia 520 on which I installed Windows 10 Preview. After install, I found that it was buggy, slow, and unacceptable. I decided to revert back to 8.1.
I tried to use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool but it said the phone was not supported. Downloaded the Windows Phone Software Recovery Tool, and it was able to get it to recognize the device, but the installation failed three times. Eventually, the screen went black and it won't turn on. I tried everything I could find online, such as Power + Volume Down but nothing worked.
What should I do?
