Install Linux.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Without linux how it's possible?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Linux on a usb stick. Seriously. You'll save yourself a lot of trouble. Just like you'd save a lot of trouble using windows for your Lumia Proto. It's not a matter of preference, but a matter of compatibility.

Most Linux phones require drivers to work under windows, which come either from the device's mass storage, a cd, or windows update. As this thing is unreleased you may not be able to find drivers that work for it. Maybe the N9 drivers will work but maybe not, and I wouldn't risk it. You can try installing Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver for it.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

When I have installed Flasher application for windows XP, Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver is installed in at the end of setup.

But not work !!! :(

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Without linux you can do the following:

Install this windows installer and follow instructions

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

I try to use libusb for windows XP but without success :(

nb. I can't find the lock password or reinstall a new system because winXP doesn't recognized my device !

If I install Ubuntu I will let you know :(

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

you no need to install it. you can boot it from CD-ROM or use virtual machine on winXP. live boot is recommended better I think.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

I download UNetbootin for Windows.

I have installed Ubuntu Live 12.04.1 on 8GB USB key.

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/933448ubuntuUSB.jpg

I have boot with my USB key but nothing... I already choose this key to boot at first place/position.

What can I do now?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

does your PC support booting from USB? must be st in BIOS. anyway, why don't you burn a CD image to CD and boot live image without installation from CD?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

I don't have DVD/CD recordable with me.
USB key can work.
Yes I have a Maximus IV Extreme Motherboard :)
I will reset the booting order and retry.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Now I am on Ubuntu :) without installation...

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/42641313010079.jpg

What is the next step?

I try to download Flasher from http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-d...-downloads.php

But the link doesn't work.

Who have the direct download link? for ubuntu please.

I need flasher_3.12.1_i386.deb

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

downloaded thank you.

I have installed with mouse.

It's the first time I used linux distribution.

Where can i go now?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

now? you seen my guide how to mount disks to PC and do a backup of that via DD.

anyway, I am afraid you can somehow damage that old SW in it. better to let it do someone more advanced. I am sure there are many advanced and honest people you can send the device, they would extract whole OS, deleted the code and returned the device.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Flasher installed.

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/72...0131152058.png

How to find the ubuntu console? please.

I will not damage the system if you help me.
I want to learn please.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

open the first icon and type terminal . It should show .

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Maybe it could be done with Teamviewer? he just need to plug the device to usb port when instructed...

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Ctrl+Alt+F1

Find now :)

and now I need to follow this guide : http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=88649 entirely?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

I download it and when I have informations I send you in private?

http://www.teamviewer.com/download/teamviewer_linux.deb

I double click on it but nothing I can't install it.

when it will be installed Where I can go to start teamviewer please?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Yes you need to send it someone on pm. Someone who is trusted and who is knowledgeable about this process (like it seems it is Rusnak-COBRA).
You don't need to be to much worry about trusting someone, because you'll see everything on your monitor what is done.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

Teamviewer is installed with same command as my N950:

sudo dpkg -i /home/ubuntu/Downloads/teamviewer_linux.deb

Look you PM now. you have my ID and Pass.

nb. I have connected my Proto device.

Waiting you...

Anyone want to connect to my PC?

Who and when you will help me ?

Thanks in advance

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

About the protoB3:

when i received the package the device can't pass the nokia logo with key and sometime reboot when i connect the charger.
I don't know why..

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/24027520130131002.jpg

there are 3 black holes on the screen like damaged ! but the ex-owner said me it's a software problem.
How can I do to have/access the lock password screen?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

from us you have crossed fingers:

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

that is not SW problem at all. many N950 protos and "finals" have faulty LCDs since they were made, noone took care. it was intentionally left made as cheap as possible.

wook :D I knew it!

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

n950, you say it can't get past the NOKIA logo (NOLO)?

That pretty much means it's bricked. Oh well, try to load the Rescue Initrd to check if the files are still on the rootfs.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

with power supply connected:
switch on the phone block on NOLO.
switch off auto.
and after,
the phone reboot 2 times. The next time the phone block on the nokia logo just before lock code.
I need to remove the battery to switch off the device.
I will try tomorrow for sure with ubuntu.
If it's bricked what is the solution?
why the phone can be bricked?

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

If it's bricked, en the only solution is to fix the running system. We'll need more information like serial logs to debug it.

You could try flashing it with modern Harmattan and dispose of the current system, or try to debug the crashes and keep whatever SW it had on it.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

i wasn't able to downgrade after harmattan :S that's really bad

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

there should be no problem to backup whole system via DD in whatever status.
i am also afraid that downgrade would not be available.

Re: Nokia N9-00 Prototype Build B3 (RM-680 codename "Dali")
 

I need help now...

I have dd the complete image in only one part.
sudo dd if=/dev/sdd of=/home/ubuntu/Downloads/sdd.img

size= 57.9 GB

Now the device is flashed with PR1.3.

http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/46994020130213001.jpg

There are two big blacks holes on the screen since I had received it.
How to change the LCD with theses blacks protections?

How to restore the single backup file on the protoB3?

I don't know.
