May have a problem there
Did you have NitDroid on the device before ?

SHOULD be able to remove it, and restore factory image like this:

flasher -f -F main.bin --erase-user-data=secure
flasher -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin --flash-only=mmc

Then again, never used NitDroid. But it is remarkable how many people are having issues restoring from it.
You might have luck, in that case, by asking at eeyes NitDroid forums.

or you have crc error in your PR335 image, you could redownload it and see if it helps.

Link for firmware images
http://skeiron.org/firmware/N9/40.2012.21.3/

Might be useful to be sure to locate the correct version for your product code. Just to be sure
In any case. Good suggestion to re-download.

Flashing with main.bin that has valid md5checksum should do the trick as that is the most common reasons for the failure.

If flashing with valid file fails then its either broken flash hardware or messed up partition table (you can fix partition table manually with ubiboot or moslo kernels by running sdfisk from commandline. And in addition to that invalid partition table usually gives you error output that you should add --no-preserve). But having said that its 99.9% because of crc checksum, as in big files its pretty common that some bit turns in wrong way during transfer. And your pretty unlucky if your flash has broken because of wear and tear.

man sfdisk -> http://linux.die.net/man/8/sfdisk or look how fixpartitions script work in moslo filesystem.

And can you give md5sum and filename of the main.bin that you are trying to flash, so we can check if checksum is right.

Try using command as

flasher -f main.bin -F emmc.bin -F -R

I used the one mentioned in the flashing guide and it didnt work for me so then i tried the one above. May be it'll help u.
