If you've just reflashed you device, I would suggest doing so again. It might be a bit tricky to do anything with the normal app-man because rootsh is needed, and to install rootsh would probably need R & D mode.
Have you tried disabling all your repositories and re-enabling them 1 by 1?
Once you get things working again, I recommend you use Faster Application Manager (fapman) - it's a GUI for apt-get and often more reliable than the built-in app-man.

download and it on your n900 click on rootsh.deb and it should automatically install via app manager.
i've got this problem, as i mentioned in the title, when i try to update or download anything new, i go to App-manager, but it keeps popping out a message about hash sum mismatch .!!!!
i'm not professional, yet, i looked all over the internet, alot of things .! can anyone tell me in a simple way how to solve this problem ?!
thanks alot .!
