Did you try this?

(And i don't think this has with overclocking like the topic say.. maybe PR1.2.. but most likely something els.. like a prog from devel.)

The main risk of damage with the O/Cing is that the device gets locked into 100% CPU sometime in the night and then stays that way for an extended period going unnoticed and fries.

Getting locked at 100% usage is a bit of a risk, especially with Devel and Testing apps installed.

@f2thak: In all seriousness I hope you get your n900 working soon.
(Let us know how you get on)

It sounds like your n900 is not dead, just resting...

The thing is.. in the cmd window screenshot he posted.. it DOES see the device to start with.. it asks it to move into emmc flashing mode, then the device disappears and doesn't come back..

From a flasher perspetive, unpluging the deivce AFTER it has been moved (or asked to move) into emmc mode is likely to jump it back out of that mode anyway.. You shouldn't unplug the device between these two steps..

Go back and have a look
First it says:
USB device found at bus bus-0, device address is \\.\libusb.....
NOLO version 1.4.14
Version of 'sw-release': RX-51_2009.....
Booting device into flash mode.

Then it says

Suitable USB device not found, waiting.


So, it never made it into flash mode.. but flasher DID see it.. Unpluging imho would be inadvisable at this point..

I saw someone earlier today with this same problem.. to solve it, we flashed the os image FIRST, then without rebooting or unplugging, we flashed the emmc..

I'm not sure windows is the problem.. it can initially see the phone, but it can't see it after asking it to go into flashing mode.. and an unhappy phone, it seems, doesn't always make it into flashing mode..

flashing the os has, in my experience, solved that problem and the subsequently allowed the emmc to be flashed.

Have you tried un-installing and then re-installing the windows drivers? I had some issues with Windows not wanting to talk (for eMMC) to my N900 after flashing the firmware. I believe I had to un-install the Nokia drivers, reboot, plug-in the N900, let if find and re-install the drivers, then flash the firware, no -R, then flash the eMMC all in one go.

Even when not overclocked, Nokia said it's not safe for the cpu run at the default max of 600Mhz constantly. :p

Why I mentioned this is because i have tried it and done it successfully. It was on the PR1.1.1 firmware though. I am not sure why but i think it rechecks if the device is there and thats why it worked.

hmm who gives a fu... about if the n900 cant stand the overclock or the leaked firmware.. its a phone if its broken fix it or buy another one .. stop this redicouls threads they realy starts to pi.. me off ..

evry time i look in this forum there are always a couple of threads about someone whining about the phone is dead due to leaked firmware.. or due to overclock ... SOOOOO WHAT .. get a freeking life and move on.. and use this forum for the real problems regards the official firmware and the stock phone..

If you use the leaked firmware and you overclock the n900 then you must have some sort of understanding about the phone arcitecture so you know what to do when shi... happens. there are a gassilion threads in here that points to how you boot and flash the freak... phone SO SEARCH before posting.. Fuc... head

sorry for the language i just got so tired of reading this thread and having a bad day LOL
