Nokia Software Update for Retial recognises the phone and says software can be installed:
This downloads fine and starts the install process, however always fails with the message "phone not supported by nokia software updater retail"
I have also tried using NaviFirm+, searching for the product code 059S3T5 which lets me download the RM914_3058.50000.1425.0006_RETAIL_eu_euro1_327_06_452364_prd_signed firmware.
However i'm unable to flash this with the Nokia Care Suite, it states: 0xFA001106: Signature check of FFU file fails. Reason(s): The FFU file is not correctly signed or not signed for this device.
Has anyone got any suggestions on what else i can try to flash this firmware? or to try fix the phone?
I was following the tutorial here Flash/unbrand Lumia devices thinking if the firmware was re flashed all would be fine.
Cheers for any advice
Have you try with this

I think win partition is crash. (like memory damage/corruption)
Hardware related problems.

Hi,
Nope i could never fix the phone, I spent loads of time messing about with it however think it was a hardware related problem.
I've given it back to my friend and shes since got a new phone.
I am into the same situation... NOKIA 520 RM-914 Code 059S7H0
"ERROR: Unable to find a bootable option. Press any key to shut down". Any button I push, the phone is going in bootloop ending with this ERROR...
I have tryed first with Windows Device Recovery Tool (WDRT) 3.1.4 to repair it, but no success...
In WDRT my Lumia is not detected automatically, so i must choose manually device manufacturer. To be detected I must restart the Lumia when DWRT is trying to detect it.
The Phone is detected as LUMIA phone, firmware version: unknown, Software available on server: 3058.50000.1425.003.
When I try to install the software after I download the package, the result is:
"Operation ended with failure. The software is not correctly signed or not signed for this device."
The NOKIA driver is seen as NOKIA BOOTMGR.
Then I've search on the internet about this problem and I've found this thread.
I tried the advanced mode with thor2.exe, I downloaded manually the firmware for my device Lumia 520, RM-914, Code 059S7H0
I opened Command Prompt as administrator, then used the command:
cd c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool\
I used the command line to extract gtp0.bin from ffu image:
thor2 -mode ffureader -ffufile "C:\rm-914\RM914_3058.50000.1425.0003_RETAIL_eu_hungary_422_03_447211_prd_signed.ffu"
The result was 2 files, gpt0.bin and GPT1.bin. I renamed gpt0.bin as msimage.mbn.
RKH of the device is:
RKH of SBL1: F771E62AF89994064F77CD3BC16829503BDF9A3D506D3FACECAEF3F808C868FD
RKH of UEFI: F771E62AF89994064F77CD3BC16829503BDF9A3D506D3FACECAEF3F808C868FD
I've downloaded the hex file for my Lumia RM-914 to have the 2 files HEX.hex and msimage.mbn for the command line:
thor2 -mode emergency -hexfile "C:\TEMP\HEX.hex" -mbnfile "C:\TEMP\msimage.mbn" -orig_gpt

The Phone is still in NOKIA BOOTMGR mode...
If I try to disconnect the phone and restart, it goes into the the same message:
"ERROR: Unable to find a bootable option. Press any key to shut down", not showing me the RED screen like it should be.
If I go into the next step for flashing the device with the command line:
thor2.exe -mode vpl -maxtransfersizekb 1 -vplfile "C:\RM-914\RM914_059S7H0_3058.50000.1425.0003_037.vpl"
the screen changes into a big NOKIA logo, the driver goes from NOKIA BOOTMGR into NOKIA FLASH...

mine finished with the same error: "The FFU file is not correctly signed or not signed for this device..."
I guess the most of us are into the same situation, I can't make the device to skip the signature check... Any sugestions?
have you jtag?
As far as I read, JTAG is a toolbox for repairing Phones which have the same problem, but what we are trying to do is without this toolbox, we have a dead phone at home. Microsoft said is a hardware failure and they must change complete motherboard, but with Jtag Toolbox can be repaired without change anything, just a complete writing of the bootloader and software. I don't want to buy the toolbox just to repair my Lumia 520, I don't need it, I'm just a home user not a repairing company...

Usually, is the main problem with Lumia Software update and stupid engineers from Microsoft does not fix it...
you deleted header partition, and lumia don't power on. help you only jtag.
I didn't know anything about this problem of almost any Lumia device until my phone has done the automatic software update from Win8 to 8.1 or 10, I don't know which one... And the the phone restarted with this stupid problem:
"ERROR: Unable to find a bootable option. Press any key to shut down"...
I have one week of searching over the internet to fix this but i couldn't make it...
If i can remove or unlock the bootloader, maybe I can force the phone to be Flashed with WDRT 1.34 and no more error:
"The FFU file is not correctly signed or not signed for this device."

Cool. I had the same issue and many other issues with my 520. I have a very cool way of fixing this and all other issues if you struggle to start the phone up. If you are interested, let me know and I will explain to you. Very easy and process takes about 5 minutes.
Cheers

I have seen this error millions of times on 520, and could fix it always
what you'll need:
PC
micro USB cable
WPInternals
.hex loader for 520
.ffu for 520
T4 screwdriver
Small wire
All you have to do is to short the resistor on eMMC clock lane, and connect USB, phone will be in emergency mode. You can either select unlock or relock in WPInternals, but for unlock, be sure to use an SBL3, because that won't fix the problem on its own.
The best would be selecting relock, then flashing the ffu, so EFIESP gets fixed
If you need help finding that resistor, PM me

Ok, so I found the resistor on a picture in another forum - so I just short it out and connect to USB while still shorted?
