Bricked my N900 - maemo.org

Hi all,

I've tried to install nitdroid whiteout luck. First i've tried method 2 and directly after it method 1, i think something's went wrong here..

Now i am stuck with a dim nokia logo and a orange led..(with usb cable plugged in, holding 'u' and connecting doesn't change anything) If i try to reflash it, flasher says the following:

Code:

bash-3.2# flasher -F RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R
flasher 3.12.1 (Oct  5 2011) Harmattan
WARNING: This tool is intended for professional use only. Using it may result

USB device found at bus 250, device address 4.
Device serial number is 
Sending request 0x01 failed: No such file or directory
NOLO_REQ_GET_STATUS: No such file or directory
ERROR: Device status query failed

Even when i try Flasher -i it will say the same. What to do now?

Are you sure that you have correct flasher?
Just find correct flasher and don't pay any cash for that "trivial" things

Hehe... elros34 has got it.

I've managed to reflash my N900 with the correct flasher and got my N900 like new again. Phew!

Note to self: First read carefully then bitch carefully if needed

May I ask where you got the images from? everything seems down (404) and I broke my RingRing because of doing the CSSU Thumb installation

.
I did back up all my data so thats not the problem, but I don't find all the things I need and which are linked in the tutorials.

I'd really appreciate your hints

if you don't want to use CSSU, you can also use the SDK repository as replacement for the now (obviously) missing SSU repository...
