Error: Phone disk preparation failed. Cannot prepare the phone for the deployment #38
Comments
I managed to get it to work finally. I had to use the Windows Device Recovery Tool to put down a clean image of the Windows Phone OS. Once I had the clean image down, I went through the process again and it worked. One thing to note, the message box that popped up about injecting the drivers said for Lumia devices, to use v2.6 of the WoADeployer tool. The latest version I could find was only v2.5.5 |
The undersized ESP looks like something caused by unlocking using an old WPInternals build Just ignore the message about v2.6, it doesn't exist |
I have the same problem, not enough free space, and I don't know how to remove the old woa version. I have now tried to use the Windows Device Recovery Tool, which sounds like, it's going to do, what I need :). |
you are better off using WPInternals, as it relocks the bootloader before flashing, and flashing over an unlocked bootloader might cause some problems |
hey @feherneoh thx for the warning :). |
WPInternals can download the ffu file for you if you use a recent version, no need to look for it yourself The latest retail build still has cellular working, it was only removed in recent insider builds |
Thank you very much @feherneoh ! |
on 1903 Phone app is deployed together with the system, and works too |
@feherneoh That's awesome thanks! |
To keep W10M too: Deploy WoA as usualy, reserving some space for it Note that you'll have to disable dualboot again to be able to install updates on WoA |

Describe the bug
Using v2.5.5 of WOA Deployer and I have tried Windows 10 Pro builds 18895 and 18865 multiple times on a Lumia 950XL. Each time it fails with this error. "Phone disk preparation failed. Cannot prepare the phone for the deployment"
It opens three drives before it fails, which are the following: MainOS, Local Disk and a partition called EFIESP. The log says there's only 38 MB available.
Any suggestions?
