The windows device recovery tool is not recognizing my lumia 1020. i wanted to roll back to wp 8.1 but the tool is showing no device connected.. I was using my lumia 1020 with windows 8.1 fine for long time. few days back when i just used the phone for few minutes & it's suddenly goes blank. and i tried to power on, it never shows anything. then i tried connect to my pc and i open windows device recovery tool it never detects my lumia 1020 but earlier it was detected all time.. I installed a cv rom on my mum's 64gb lumia 1020 (in order to get rid of the o2 carrier branding and get i think i'll try and download an o2 rom....and then i'll give the nokia software recovery tool a try. so my question - if i use the nokia software recovery tool, will it reinstall the original o2 firmware?.
Windows phone recovery tool is a freeware windows phone recovery app filed under mobile phone tools and made available by microsoft for windows. the review for windows phone recovery tool has not been completed yet, but it was tested by an editor here on a pc.. The application was first known as lumia recovery tool, and then microsoft changed it the first time to windows phone recovery tool. now a new update has changed it yet again to windows device. My nokia lumia 1020 needs to be recovered (it started to stop updating time and date and has several other app problems, doesn't run whatsapp, doesn't check emails, doesn't keep pictures taken... and an endless array of problems). so i downloaded the lumia software recovery tool version 5.0.5 (latest update)..
