However I switched computers (windows vista) and keep running into this:

4 things:

1. flasher-3.5.exe not .exe

2. First eMMC then firmware

3. Follow the wiki EXACTLY. In fact read it a few times through and even take some notes. Make sure sure you fully understand the instructions before attempting to flash.

4. Please don't Hi-jack threads, it's bad taste.

Aside from that copy and paste.

are you use windows 7 64-bit?
It is known that 64-bit systems caused some trouble..
there's a little workaround for that and i think you can find it on the wiki page. It's a little program called libusb (something like that)

it installs some drivers and then you shouldn't have any more problems

sure hope it helped

Install Nokia PC Suite or OVI PC Suite. It is finding the device but not finding the Connectivity Drivers...

Also the best practice is to use a Windows XP Virtual machine if you are using a 64bit OS.

Installing OVI or/and PC suite don't install the drivers required for flashing.. At least that was my case.

But this can be fixed by installing libusb before connecting the device.
Download and instructions are found here.

It worked for me!

I switched over to a Vista 32 bit machine (non virtual) and had the pc suite installed when I got that error.

I'm going to try Bartcore3's suggestion today.

And I'm sure that should work as all it needs is the driver to recognize that this is the device that needs to be flashed.. :P

Target remains

Code:

I've attempted trouble shotting 1-4 in the wiki and have even switched to a vista-32 bit PC. The above code is all I ever see.
