Hi There,

I loved my phone , but after an unexpected freeze I have to re-flash it.

The problem is when I try to run the command "flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f", I get this error:

SU_PREPARE_DATA_BLOCK_REQ terminated with error code 3

I found this when I did sfdisk -c /dev/mmcblk0 1 83

/dev/mmcblk0: unrecognized partition table type

sfdisk: 1: no such a partition.

I have tried so many things so I think that I problem get worst.

Please Help!!

I am Using windows, and I am not very familiar with linux

Did you repartition you eMMC or change the filesystem layout? If so state which link you followed into changing the eMMC layout.

Try to get some output first of
Code:
sfdisk -V
then from
Code:
sfdisk -l
The option of the second command is a small 'L'. You must invoke the commands as root!

Results:

read: Input/output error

sfdisk: read error on /dev/mmcblk0 - cannot read sector 0
/dev/mmcblk0: unrecognized partition table type

sfdisk: no partition table present.
/home/user # sfdisk -l

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 977024 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track
read: Input/output error

sfdisk: read error on /dev/mmcblk0 - cannot read sector 0
/dev/mmcblk0: unrecognized partition table type
No partitions found

Thank you very much for your help!!

That looks like its seriously borked, the eMMC chip. I'd check:
Code:
dmesg
for any useful information as to why eMMC is now unreadable.

Otherwise paste the output of your dmesg here.

(edit) the output of a working eMMC with 32GB microSDHC inserted should look something like this:
Code:
Nokia-N900:~# sfdisk -l

Disk /dev/mmcblk1: 977120 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 32768 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

Please install recovery-tools package and run testdisk to get some useful (hopefully) output there.

Do you have a faint vision of how your emmc was partitioned, before you faced that error?

Where do I can find the recovery-tools package?

I do not remember how it was partitioned, it was as it comes by default

Thanks!!
