Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

guys one more doubt ..i got n900 through amazon USA and i dono exactly which Regional Update was present ....Unaware of that i previously flashed with PR 1.3 india version and i faced problems .. ..

Will this be the reason for all those problems i faced ?

so now hoping that i had initial settings to be USA Firmware, now i flashed with pr1.3 USA version.

is this right?

Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

guys it may sound weird but today i wore a tight jean and placed my n900 in the left side pocket.before placing my phone i sent a msg and phone was normal and after a while when i took i found message undelivered and also device memory full and my n900 gave the older problems.

i guess too much pressure over the phone could be the possible reason ..

is it possible that device memory full error could be caused by pressuring the phone ? :(

Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

I´m not expert but there is little that you can do if internal memory is faulty.

Do you use external sd inside N900?
Have you overclocked N900?
Battery off, give it 10 minutes, put it back and see what happens.

Btw.

Has fsck but now that your device is booting it´s probably not helpful. Try to use power search and search for fsck and read those threads completely before doing anything.

Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

try this

You can use Microsoft Virtual PC - Also known as XP Mode. Professional, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions of Windows 7 come with Windows XP mode, but must be downloaded and installed before use.
1. Connect your N900 in flasher mode; Hold u on the device keyboard, then connect the USB cable.
2. Wait for Windows to install the appropriate drivers.
3. Start Microsoft Virtual PC / Windows XP mode/
4. Allow the Virtual PC to have access to your N900: (On the top bar): USB > Nokia N900 (Update mode) (Attach). (If it doesn't say (update mode), you didn't enter update mode correctly by pressing "u". Remove the cable and try again.)
5. Wait for Windows to install the appropriate drivers.
6. When it is finished, proceed with the normal flashing steps above.

There have been numerous reports on the forums of people trying to flash the rootfs/FIASCO and eMMC with Windows 7 64 bit XP Mode/Virtual PC, where the rootfs/FIASCO image flashed just fine, but the eMMC image stays at "no suitable device found. Waiting". Again allow the Virtual PC to have access to your N900: (On the top bar): USB > Nokia N900 but *NOTICE* now it will be Nokia N900 (PC-Suite mode) (Attach). Now the flashing will start normally.

3. reinstall it back on C:\Program Files. NOTICE THE FOLDER. BE SURE YOU CHANGE IT TO C:\Program Files during the reinstallation.
4 then follow the steps as outlined by earlier by codetracer.

On this basis I would guess that you either went to uninstall or upgrade your NITDroid install and instead of cleaning out only the Android /home you also cleaned out your own Maemo /home, resulting in your reboot loops and the black screen with purple bar.

I'm surprised that you managed to flash fiasco successfully from a 64bit W7 install to be honest, as 64bit W7 is supposed to be incompatible with Maemo-Flasher.

Seriously, Linux LiveCD to boot from and flash both fiasco and eMMC without rebooting in between them. The reboot switch is the

Code:

-R

so on the first flash, omit this from the command you input into the prompt.

This should clear up any problems that you have, but will lose all the data you have in your phone.

And I know it's tempting, but NITDroid is not for people who are not massively technically minded. It takes a modicum of expertise to install, uninstall, apply fixes, set up APN's, etc etc so if you are not that way inclined, my best advice to you is to leave it well alone....

you are spot on, that whole nitdroid episode got me in this situation, i too am running win 7 64 and im not able to flash the emmc, im gonna try linux live cd and pray because iv thrown the kitchen sink and the bathtub at this problem and nothing works.

Hello there. I have tried this before and it worked flawlessly. I now tried to do the same thing again, but every time I open flasher 3.5, the window simply pops up and closes right away... any ideas on where I went wrong?

It seems as tough the problem was with placing the flasher in Program Files folder, instead of Program Files x86..

I am now stuck at this window, phone is loading with 5 circles, stuck on the second one.. What to do?

Re: How to reflash N900 in Windows 7 64bit

Hello.
I have problems with eMMC flashing, it doesn't matter if I'm doing this on 7 or XP. My phone connects and stays in update mode, but when I type the command for eMMC flash and press enter, it disconnects from Update mode and stays with this 5 dots on screen. Can someone tell me how can I get this done ? Or should I take my n900 to Nokia Care ?
Greetings :)

Any ideas how to proceed?

If You install Nokia Ovi Suite and connect your N900 you can update the software in extra, even on a Windows 7 64bit pc

Tip: Don't save the .ini file in the system32 folder as suggested by libusb. In my experience it fail to update the driver in the next step. Save in the desktop folder for example.
