Help! Please Help!
 
I'm having the constant reboot problem. I've already read some of the old threads concerning this, so I know I have to flash my N900.

However, when I try to download:
http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N...ED_MR0_ARM.bin

from: http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php

it stops downloading at 4-10MB. My internet connection is OK, because I just downloaded a file of about 140MB right now in less than 30 minutes. So I think my internet connection and the website are not too fond of each other. How can I download the image file? Can someone please help me out? Can someone upload the file on another website, such as megaupload, so I can download it?

Please help me out so that I can restore my phone back to a working condition.

What variant are you trying to download?

Re: Help! Please Help!
 
Latest Maemo 5 Global release for Nokia N900
200174197 PR 1.3 version 20.2010.36-2

It is the right one, right?

Hmmmm... My download speed is ~650 Kb/s and I'm already 62% since my last post (90 MB left to get). What is your download speed? If you're not coping with the server you might get server time-outs and thus your download cuts. Try using and internet download manager/accelerator such as Internet Download Manager or similar to download the file.

I'm not sure I have the right to upload NOKIA's bins to a separate web hosting service, but if someone gives me a green light I'm glad to help. Finished downloading BTW.

My download speed is normally 100 - 200kb/s. I just downloaded a 140MB file in less than 30 minutes. I already tried DAP, it got to 10MB and stopped. I also tried Flashget, same thing.

Well let's see if vi_'s advice will do good, I'm uploading the file.

also turn off adblock on ifile.it or they limit your speed. (just two gif banners, besides they deserve it for such an awesome service.)

Once you have your download it would be good to know whether reflashing works for you.

I have exactly th same problem and re-flashed sucessfully last night, but still wont boot up and just keeps rebooting when plugged into charger or via usb.

Out of interest did your problem start after you had the phone plugged into a car charger? or generic (non nokia) charger?

Also suggest you update this thread so we can share experiences.

I'm still waiting for the download link from ammyt.

I've never plugged my phone into a car charger nor a non Nokia charger. And I just want to add that my phone boots up to the point where I can see my wallpaper, battery icon and time on the desktop (but I don't see any app icon on my desktop). Then it automatically reboots/restarts after a few seconds. The only time it doesn't restart is when I connect it via USB to my PC in the mass storage mode (very few things work under such mode).

I upgraded to PR1.3 and installed the CSSU about 2 weeks ago.

Pshhhhht I'm really sorry Chuks, I just don't know what happened to my internet connection, my internet disconnected and the upload stopped at 43%, I had to contact my ISP, but I'm back online again and uploading the image.

I didn't know that. I'm glad to see you're back online. :)

Yaaaayyyy! It took a while but I succeeded in downloading the file. And I succeeded in flashing my N900, it now works like new!

Thanks so so much, ammyt. You can now remove the file from ifile.it And thanks to you too, vi_, for the site suggestion and for giving ammyt the go ahead! Haha!

Y'all have a nice day and God bless!
