I tried every single command but nothing.. I'll download it but is there any tutorial or something that could help me because I've never used linux

Weelll, could be it is me who is alzhaimeric here now, but AFAIR "-F emmc.bin -F firmware.bin" does not repartition, it writes the images to existing partitions. Only adding "--erase-user-data=secure" repartitions it...

At least adding "--cold-flash" to the rest of the arguments should repartition it, hmm?

Argh...

Now I remember. Yes it is me.

emmc flashing writes to existing partitions. It does not repartition.
Only if you modified partition layout (as I did) it will ask you to add --no-preserve and then repartition.

So -erase-user-data was the one to use.
Adding -c (cold flash) should do it too. And especially here...

just do
flasher -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin --no-preserve. -r

it will create partitions as was originally
have done this a zillion times when reflashing my N9 which I repartition to get more space for apps (i usually repartition from 2 gig to 10 gig on my N9)

mmh. Pretty strange that. It is possible that your device's flash is broken.
Or you could have corrupted images. (more likely I think)
At least there's no "downgrade disallowed" message so your images are probably the correct version.

What you could do, is to download ubiboot kernel, and try to boot with that to maintanance mode. Then you'd find out if your flash is OK and partitionable.
  • download http://www.swagman.org/juice/ubiboot...3.5_301013.tar
  • extract the file zImage_2.6.32.54-ubiboot-02_301013
  • use flasher to jumpstart that on your device: "sudo flasher -k zImage_2.6.32.54-ubiboot-02_301013 -l -b"
  • connect USB cable to powered-off N9
  • Wait for the filesystem to export to Linux

You do need linux with that, windows is pretty much useless.
