    Exactly.

    You should never need to flash your device to get some maps for it, even the idea is funny
    The different country variants just contain the default set of maps for their area, you can alway load extra maps to the device.

    Hi.

    To whoever might by interested, I can confirm that the scale to determine if a new version is a downgrade is as stated here
    For instance: I was on 40.2012.21-3.454.6_PR_LEGACY_454 and now I am in : 40.2012.21-3.100.17_PR_LEGACY_100
    This is because the bolded digits are checked before the three-digit version numbers, and also explains why I was able to 'downgrade' from 480.04 to 454.6.
    So, my guess is that the 'higher' firmware version so far is 100.17, which is Portugal VODAFONE (and I suppose has operator lock), and not 480.04 as stated before.

    Regards.

    Just bricked my N9.

    Had been updating Ubuntu boxes all day, was tired, did a dist-upgrade on N9 (ugh), answered "yes" when I shouldn't have (ugh), it shut down and won't reboot. Pretty sure I "agreed" to remove something I shouldn't have. Now stuck on the "NOKIA" logo until I get the "Too many reboots" message.

    Do I reflash now, or is there a less drastic course to start with? (flasher -i finds the phone with no errors) I ask now so I don't do another stupid thing to compound my problems.

    [edit]
    Flashing rootfs was necessary and sufficient. Installed applications need re-installed, of course, but most settings and data still there. And of course now I have a good backup of all my partitions.

    @robthebold, kind of a similar thing happened with me a few days back. I was fiddling with my phone and it showed an update was available and something else shall be removed. Yes, me too did the mistake of pressing yes. Nothing happened at that very moment. But later, when I was removing a package it didn't end there. While I was staring at my home screen I could see the default phone applications disappearing one by one. Even the settings icon disappeared. A few seconds later, the whole theme layout messed up. I restarted the phone, only to find it stuck at Nokia logo. A Root-fs flash helped me bring the device back to life.

    Hi, another person needing help:

    I do this:

    The current firmware version of your phone should appear. It is now time to flash.
    What happens next is another c: window opens and closes in less than a second, leaving the flasher window as it was (reading c:\Program Files\Nokia\Flasher>)

    I don't get anything else.

    Secondly, (what is probably causing the problem) is I don't know where the DFL...bin files should be; now they're in downloads\navifiirmplus_3.2\NaviFirm+\Fw\059L698 should I just copy pasta them to the flasher folder? should I put the 059L698 folder in there? where???

    Dear all,

    I just purchased a used N9 and am trying to figure out which FW variant it is on and which all FW can be installed on this. Look forward to some guidance on this. Thanks as always.

    Code:
    flasher -i

    Found device RM-696, hardware revision 1601
    NOLO version 2.3.6
    Version of 'sw-release': DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3.468.1_PR_468
    Success

    That seems to be the UAE variant.

    Here are the firmware files you need.

    There's a SW called "NaviFirmEx.exe" that you can use to find details of different firmwares for Nokia devices. (not just N9, also symbian)

    Unfortunately it is a windows-only program, which makes it a bit difficult to use for me as I do not use/have any Windows computers, but the bright side is that it runs quite well with Wine
