Hello, my G42 is stuck at boot logo NOKIA.
I've gone in to recovery but there is no reset option to delete data and cache.
I even tried fastboot erase cache and data but that is locked.
Any ideas? I'm shocked that a ifixit compatible phone has no basic option for factory reset. Did Nokia/HMD mess up? :o

All is fine. It just started working out of the blue.
Full reset done from OS and bootloader opened.
Case is closed!
Rant:
Still wish i knew if there was a way to force a rebuild of the OS. These phones seem to have removed any option to do a full factory reset from recovery. I guess it's for the case if the phone is stolen they can't use it?. It's silly as that can be remedied with a program file and QFIL for example. I'm sure their out there, build and ready for download.
Don't really get the hole reason behind removing the factory reset from recovery menu.
Knowing that with the IMEI details or even IMSI (and any other) and with proof of purchase or usage from carrier, you can provide that to the police and they will tag the phone as stolen/trace it.

I believe that's cpu problem, and can be fixed via reball.

If phone stalls to Nokia logo and you hear that Nokia tune is staggering -- problem might be bad connection to fingerprint reader. Check Youtube videos how to open phone, disconnect & reconnect both battery & fingerprint reader and start phone again.
For me this fixed problem -- hope this helps others.

Can you add pictures so we see what you see in the menu?

There's nothing much to see. (edited post with image)
Options:
Reboot system
Enter Fastboot
Power Off
That's it.

@danthebrit What did you do before this happened to the phone?
crwdns2957956:0crwdnd2957956:0 Markus Norstrøm crwdne2957956:0
Running a benchmark. I rebooted to run a another test and that's it.
That's besides the point. Really doesn't matter what was being done.
(No, nothing was opened and battery charged).
It stuck trying to load the core system, and as we can't see the current verbose log of the system loading like we would see on ubuntu/linux servers, I'm sure the OS needs rebuilding. Probably an issue loading the cache or data partition. Not uncommon and happens.
What i need to know is if there is a way to force a factory reset without being able to access android OS GUI.

@danthebrit If you don't care much about what is on the phone I think volume up and power button is the android hard reset button combination. If that is the way you entered the recovery mode however as it can differ based on device try the other volume button from the one in the recovery combination which in this example would be down.
