Try http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N810wimax.php but when I tried to flash using the Windows update Software, it didn't work. Go figure, finally found the link, but the binary image is not acceptable for my device according to the result message and I am not the only one experiencing this problem.....

Check this out: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...8&postcount=23

Use linux. Unpack the image, and flash the individual components. Maybe only flash the components you need, like perhaps the filesystem is wacked but the kernel is ok, for example.

Edit: Rant: Windows sucks, use Linux. http://www.ubuntu.com/

OK.. Now I see what's happening...

The bootloader in 36-5 image does not support "certified" devices. (Devices that are currently on sale.) Next firmware update (due soon... ) will fix this problem. Just hang on there a week or so...

So the demo devices that were out loose in the wild are "uncertified"? And how does that make sense since its the "certified" ones that I have and archimage has?

Didn't I just say that "certified" devices (HW ID 1007 and 1008) can not be flashed with the current (available) firmware? Isn't that the case with your tablets?

You didn't mention any HW ID's. I have 1007 and it wouldn't take the image as a whole, I had to use just the rootfs, which is all I needed anyway. I don't know of any other HW ID's. But wouldn't be more accurate to say that the currently available image works on non-certified devices, while not on the certified devices, the ones available now for sale?
