Why did Windows Recovery 3.11.34101 essentially brick my Nokia Lumia - Microsoft Community

i tried windows 10 via upgrade advisor , tried go windows 8.  the available version of windows device recovery tool loaded version of windows 8 never used guess part of upgrade path.

my phone bricked.  i cannot log in microsoft account , therefore no store apps can updated, nor new ones loaded.

there host of login problems version 8.1 due system date/time.  i used every "fix" find still message "can't connect."  system date/time correct.  i've set them manually, automatically, correct connection not go through.  i've changed internet connection across several different working sim cards , 2 different wifi networks not network problem.

there has never been reset protection in place, although device did register on account windows 10 device.  i removed account once flashed windows 8 device.

is there secret, server-side issue no 1 cares since windows phone 8.1 login occasional occurrence @ point?

i lost day of life no apparent reason - guidance appreciated, otherwise guess i'll throw phone in crapper.

hi dan,

we read concern , seems issue originated after using windows device recovery tool.

we recommend repeat process of recovery tool , try not touch while process ongoing prevent instances of being bricked.

let know how goes.
