The power button on my n9 hasn't worked for a while anX usually when my battery died I just plugged it into my and it would boot up again. But now it just charges. I've tried to reboot it using flasher to no avail.
I've also reconnected the battery and had the same results
any suggestions? ideally I just like to boot up so I could copy all of my stuff off it.

So what happens if you do "sudo flasher -R" ?

He at least wants to preserve his emmc.

@OP
What you want to do is what Nieldk posted in his answer, but instead, at the flashing step, do just flasher -f main.bin -> Don't do the emmc.bin part because that will erase all your data

flasher -i is enough to start charging. no progress will be displayed. but topic isnt about charging and juiceme answer is correct.

well, the OP mentions ' when my battery dies'
My guess is it fell below acceptable level.

Also I read from post, that OP already tried reboot using flasher.
So, either flat battery, or, rootfs got damaged

The battery is full (98%) as I put it on charge once it died. will try the suggestions and let you know
Thanks

"'sudo' is not recognised as an internal our external command, operable program or batch file"

sudo doesnt exist on Windows, just run flasher - R from a command line
