I am a fairly careful N9 owner, and I don't know much about Terminal so I usually don't bother with it.

But please let this post be a sort of warning for you; my N9 now won't boot up, and I didn't really do anything.

I had installed FasterN9 about a week ago (no problems) and the new shiny Wazapp (no problems) and everything was working hunky dory.

Then I read that a new FasterN9 was out so I uninstalled my old one and rebooted.

That's when this message appeared. The phone will not go past this now. Holding the power button in for a long time just produces the same.

I'm hopeful that the ever-helpful Arie can get things back to normal by steering me through flashing it. The fact that it at least shows this message as opposed to totally dead gives me some hope.

I hope you guys have not had similar problems, and if anyone knows why my N9 is now on strike, please feel free to throw 2 cents my way. And before you say, "Try Nokia Suite like it says", that would be like the IT guy saying, "Did you try turning it on?"

I will update this post when I am back as part of the N9 community. Right now I'm part of the Nokia E75 community, and trust me, I'm all alone
