I never started all this crap, but i guess this is how members of the Maemo community treat new members?? Having a bricked phone and trying to find solutions to fix it for HOURS is bad enough as it is, but it makes it worse when people start giving ******** replies and troll someone else's topic.

Look, there're tons of topics i've searched and read already and not many of them mentioned it's a problem due to Windows 7 x64 driver conflicts. When you have a bricked phone and tried finding for solutions and searching the internet for hours, you can easily miss a few things here and there. Especially if you have to read through 5 or 6 topics that either give no solutions to your problems, or that you have to read a huge post that spans across like 4 pages (aka the Wiki on updating the firmware).

Say, the nice guy at #4 has already asked the right question, which you bluntly ignored. You don't really need to be very humble to get help. Had you answered the questions in #4 telling him which version of Windows you're using, it'd have been saving you a lot of time.



It's because you overlooked the large section of N900: Windows 64bit (Vista&7) in the wiki that you must first refer to(http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_t...ndows_7_32-bit). However, it's okay to overlook things, it's okay to skip wiki, very few people here would laugh at people being slappy, and we all know the first problem most people encountered in flashing is the 64-bit problem. The problem is you didn't answer to the right question from someone who tried to help, instead spent time fighting with those who asked for fighting, and then you jumped into emotion too quickily.

I use sacrasm to respond you because I understand your impatience, but disagree with you regarding your accusation toward this community, but don't want to use harsh words on you.

BTW, how come yours is so expensive? It comes with a pony? @_@

I guess it comes down to this - If you think a guy is trolling then ignore him. If you have useful information then share it. If you need more specific information to be useful then ask for it.

It is nuts that a request for help should degenerate to name calling on this forum. I am embarassed for us.
