How to upgrade #61

Closed biconix closed 4 years ago

biconix commented 4 years ago

A while ago i installed wind10 on my 950XL. i did not set up a dual boot. I assume that there has been an upgrade in the past year+. I would like to upgrade the device to a more current version as this one has not been working well. In fact I cannot charge it properly. and it can't get past the login screen What steps should I do in order to do the upgrade? if i cannot upgrade is there a way to restore the original Windows phone OS? (or is the phone bricked?)

You can only redeploy WOA or reflash stock via WDRT

I have tried that. first, WDRT doesn't detect the device. (Device could not be found) even if I select the button for Lumia Windows Phone Second because the phone cannot be charged by USB, I have to charge it wirelessly at the same time it is plugged in to my Surface via USB Third I cannot successfully log in anymore. I am able to enter my PIN but i can't get past the spinning welcome. So, is this bricked? or is there a way to update the version of windows on the phone?
