Bricked My N900 Today!!
 
My N900 would not boot up today after installing a few apps.. The apps i installed was WorldVeiw Cpu Manger and the Maemo Theme.. After installing them i turned of the phone then it would not boot up the Nokia logo came up the loading bar for a few seconds it would not go any further... Anyone else had the same problem ? Also i did try flashing it but i could not get it into USB mode i had to take to Nokia Care Centre hopefully should be ready in the morning man i already miss my N900 :(

that does actually sound as if the app and theme that you installed are completely unrelated to the bricking. They'd have to modify some nasty stuff to cause such a severe boot state. nope, my guess is that something else happened.

agree that help solve alot of problems. just take some time reading but you'll learn alot more than just asking and getting the answer. asking should be your last resort. :D

Couldn't agree more - all you need to know lies behind the search button.

RECOMMENDATION 1:

Learn how to re-flash as soon as possible - it is easy enough for an average computer user (like me!) and will give you an enormous sense of reassurance, boost your confidence and self-esteem. You'll feel like a God the first time you ressurect your bricked N900 and will notice a boost to your sex-life

RECOMMENDATION 2:

Make regular backups

RECOMMENDATION 3:

ENJOY your N900 - there's no need to fear it
