    Wait and see, hopefully the wipe was interrupted at first instance, so it is doing it, plug in and wait

    I've never waited more than an hour before canceling the security wipe and just reloading the OS. Some people say it can take hours.

    I sold a z10 awhile ago. I was about 1-2hrs in to the wipe when I sold it and it still wasn't done. I knew the guy so he trusted me that the phone worked. I was very surprised it took so Damn long.

    Mine z10 took 2 to 3 hrs so don't worry it can take more time.
