Recently receiving "No Bootable Device" error on Surface go running UEFI 1.0.34.

I've tried all the recovery disk options without success.

Have also noticed a few reddit threads with similar issues with this version in the last week or so

Anyone else seen this and managed to recover their device?

I have lodged multiple support tickets, confirmed there is no way for a user to roll back this firmware update.

I have also lodged a complaint here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/microsoftfeedback 

Edit: 11/7 - After 5-6 weeks I've finally been able to send it back and it's been a fee-free replacement. It has been a lot of back and forth and mentioning this thread with so many other instances of it.

Still waiting for someone to lodge this as a firmware issue.....and remove that version of the firmware from Microsoft site.

    No luck for me. MicroSoft is offering no support. Only suggestion was to schedule an appointment with a BestBuy Store that is a service center. It is out of state and 3 hours away.

    I am having the same issue, but after following your and AJ360's advice, I contacted MSoft support and they're sending me a certified refurbished surface go as well. I have a surface go 1, so hopefully I'm given the go 2 replacement treatment too 😉

    I have unfortunately lost a Surface to this issue as well, but after trying to call Microsoft and waiting over an hour and a half on hold, I heard from no one. I tried going about this online but there is a dent on the top left of my display and are trying to charge me over $300 to send back so do not want to get charged this amount as the issue relates to the fact solely that of the firmware as I can see through people's comments. I can't seem to find anyone else to contact in NZ. Is there an email address or someone I can talk to, to try and resolve this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    My Surface Go is now a brick. Tried everything in your post, still absolutely nothing working. I can get into the ususal -command line, recovery disc, etc.

    Still says No Bootable Device.

    This issue is not isolated, especially when you look at the posts in just this forum. What about all the posts likely in other forums ?

    Microsoft is now showing thier contempt for people daring to suggest that their product updates are not fit for purpose. Shameful.
