I don't mean to be rude, but it was stupid to to turn it off in the middle of flashing it. If you can, make sure the battery is fully charged (you'll probably need an external charger for this). You may well have put your N900 into a state where you need to try cold flashing it. Good luck with getting it working again.

what happens when you try to turn on the phone without any charger plugged in? does the nokia splash screen pop up?

Re: dead N900 phone how to flash it?
 

Have you let it fully recharge, without switching it on?

Re: dead N900 phone how to flash it?
 

It was the same problem to me, but the problem was that the phone was not charged well, so just plug the phone to charger and leave about 1 hour, it should get enough battery to turn you in the usb state

Vishnu, from your username I assume that you're from india. Which firmware did you download?

Was it:
RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.004_PR_COMBINED_004_ARM.bin 200043133 PR 1.3 version 20.2010.36-2 Latest Maemo 5 India release for Nokia N900

If not, this could be one reason why your sim isn't being recognised.

But before you go reflashing. Check that the contacts of your sim are making proper contact with the pins on your sim card holder. Similarly with the microsd car. The covers should depress and slide into a lock position.

If you have a card reader and another mobile, it's worth trying to test the sim and microsd card out in other devices to rule out that it's not a faulty sd card or sim.

Cheers,
Fred
