Re: Nokia's replacement policy in this situation...?

Yes, I'll agree that the right thing would be to return it. But I'll be candid here and say that when a loophole has been discovered, I'm going to exploit it. And Giulia and I have discovered such a...

I was wondering if anyone could give me some information on Nokia's replacement policy as far as my current situation is concerned. In another thread (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=72051), I...

Re: Received a new Nokia N900, now I'm not sure if there's a problem with it or not...

I believe it's officially busted. I'm not sure why it kept rebooting like that but it also was giving a memory error. They sent a defective refurbished product as a "replacement" so to speak. This...

Well, damn. After it rebooted from the desktop the last time it wouldn't go back. It just got stuck at the white Nokia screen and shut off. It won't respond to my charger now any more either.

:(

I just charged it before the last time I flashed (which was at the time of my last post where it's mentioned) and it was green. However, even though it's an OEM battery (it seems legit according to...

Hopefully those experts don't work for Nokia. They might tell me to send the phone back. :p

I guess so. Of course. I just thought that would help or something. Blah.

Just flashed again. eMMC image first without rebooting, took the battery out briefly, then flashed the FIASCO image with...

Re: Received a new Nokia N900, now I'm not sure if there's a problem with it or not...

Not what I was asking. That'll just run the entire FIASCO image.

The readme file states that the FIASCO image can be "split" into "rootfs" and "kernel." This means one could install the rootfs...

Alright. So it's emmc and then fiasco.

When I said "rootfs" earlier I meant fiasco. Just read the Readme again and it said something about unpacking the fiasco image into separate parts (rootfs...

No luck. It's still stalling.

I have a feeling I'm not doing something right. The directions given on the guide for flashing (the guide on this site) aren't the clearest out there, you know. :/

Which do I flash first? eMMC (VANILLA) or FIASCO?

Re: Received a new Nokia N900, now I'm not sure if there's a problem with it or not...

Question: When I reflash later, do I need to flash the eMMC "Vanilla" image as well as the FIASCO image, or just the FIASCO image? I think this phone is already set to the factory settings so would...

Nah. Her old phone had some kind of memory error. The way she described it, a bug caused the amount of system memory available on her phone to reduce so dramatically to the point that her phone...

Are you sure it's refurbished? It looked new to me.


On the shipping receipt, it has a table labeled "Content" and under this it has the phone's serial/IMEI number, product code, model number...
