N900 firmware download location
 

Hi,

I have a n900 on the way... gonna see what happens w. a T-Mobile Mifi SIM card in it.

So I assume I'll need to update/reflash my new device. And because of Nokia's changes, it's a little hard to tell where to get the reflash tool and Firmware images.

I've downloaded the firmware from multiple locations, and the checksums look OK. I *think* I have the "real thing". And I own/operate my own server. I have 1TB transfer/month available to me, and I'm already hosting the firmware files for the n800 and n810. I have now added the n900 ones:

BTW, if you want the n800/n810 ones:

http://www.vsta.org/Nokia/

Those of you with known good firmware images from Nokia, can you please generate a sha1 and then look at the sha1_sums.txt file that I supply? I'm pretty confident that I've picked up good bits, but it's always good to be cautious.

Thanks,
Andy Valencia

This is very cool of you, thank you. I can check my images tomorrow and make sure that they agree with what you have.

I recently flashed one of my N900 with the combined image I downloaded here:

It's just my testing device so I can't say much more than "it works". I can provide the sha1sum in the evening (GMT).
For some reason I had to download the file like five times though because it always ended prematurely. No error, no stall, it was just not transmitted completely. I usually don't have these problems with my ISP.

You SHA checksums match mine (which I know to be good :). I only checked the firmware images (.bin), not the .exe's and stuff.

Thanks for keeping the images there. We need as many backups as possible :)

PS: what happened with the option to disable smilies? or am I blind?

Thanks, I've grabbed a copy. Before I put it up for general download, it'd be nice to know that it has a trustworthy lineage. I'm going to hold off and see if anybody else can independently verify its contents.

Hello.
Thank you very much.

Can someone help me how to flash Nokia N900?
I have an old version of Maemo 5 Firmware.

Also I have a lot of problems with my N900 and I really need to flash it.

Can someone please remind me (again) what this image is? The latest I have is 20.2010.36-2, same as what vandys is hosting. Downloaded from Nokia while I could. My SHA matches, BTW:

PR 1.3.1. It was never published in maemo.org, but on some Nokia server (for OTA update).
