    I security wiped my phone at 9am and it is 7pm right now and I am still unable to use my phone. This is ridiculous. I can't even take the battery out cause that doesn't work. What are my other options?

    What was the reason you did the security wipe? What are you seeing on the device? Blank screen? Did you do anything aside from the security wipe?

    Removing the battery bricked my sisters which was wiping for 4-6 hours. I was able to debrick it though.

    ? AT&T Z10 STL100-3/10.2.0.1791 ?

    I wanted to delete everything because the internet was working when it wanted to. It's on the screen where it looks like a SIM card and there's a blue loading circle.

    Next time you wipe, delete all your apps and accounts first - it speeds up the process. Typically, my security wipes take around 45 minutes-ish when I do that. Before it would be a couple hours.

    Is it link not detecting it, or the pc itself?

    Turn off phone, disconnect from computer, start autoloader.
    WAIT. When "Connect to Bootrom" is seen, plug in phone...
    When black dos window closes, unplug phone.
    When phone starts up, set it up.

    Try installing and running "CCleaner" from Piriform...I use it on all my computers to get them running tip-top...Run cleaner and registry repair...(two top buttons on left side of window...You won't be disappointed.
