Hey guys I need some help I'm running Windows XP and I downloaded the right kernel files and flasher 3.5 exe they are all in the same folder in Program files but Command Prompt keeps telling me the files aren't recognized??? I've watched all the tutorial vids and explanations and I'm still getting error messages what exactly do I need to punch in command prompt? I'm trying to flash Lehto's 900mhz/150 kernel, any help you can give me is much appreciated.

When you downloaded the file, did you extract it first? If you did, then make sure you put it in /home/user/ folder. I'm quessing that you didn't manage to put it in /home/user, if it says "Not found".

Are you in the Flasher path on the Command Line?

Like: C:\programs\maemoflash3.5\

Download a program called Winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm

After you've installed it, right click on the file, and choose "extract", and then just take the file inside it and put it in your N900.

Then follow the instructions told before.

if maemo flasher says c:\windows\system32\

then you need to copy and paste this into it

cd "c:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5"

press enter

this will now set the path to

c:\programfiles\maemoflasher3.5\

this will mean you can now enter you command to flash the kernel ie --

flasher-3.5.exe -k zImage-800mhz -f -R

hope that makes sense

Just tested with Titan's kernel @ 1GHz. Test took 83.03s with 1000000 digits and I received a SMS during the test

Nice test. Thanks!
