What is the best source to get firmware file for this that it have finnish language and keyboard with it?

I´ve been having hard time lately trying to Flash E7 and C7 as it only seems to be easy without finnish language and that is kind of useless for finnish people if they want to use the phones

I don't recall a Finnish firmware, but Global above should cover Finland.
Did you actually try another SIM?
I have a few N900's all with this menu option and none were ever locked and I have switched carriers with one.

Mine have that menu option too but it was a global device and I have used multiple sim cards in it of different carriers.

Yes I have used carriers called DNA and Saunalahti, but it says no mobile phone network when trying to call. There is chance that the antenna or something would be broken too, but the person who gave me this told me that its sim locked.

Flashed that one, but did not help. Wondering thought should I have flashed the eMMC too?

They do both in here still. 3g will be at least this year and 2g 2025, but I doubt they wont close it down in then.

I did this, but problem still excist the same.

The N900 flashing thought have been pain in the *** compared to other phones Getting it to connect seems to be hardest part and takes some tries. Figured out thought that easiest way to get it connect is to keep usb cable connected and just plug out and in battery until it start flashing.

As mentioned previously I have Nokia C2 and C3 locked too so anyone have idea about good site that could sell the codes or something?

I tested Nokia best software. My C2 and C3 showed locked status and who is locked operator etc. but then tested this N900 and it showed that its open. Must be something broken in it. Thanks for help. Will use this for spare parts.
