Facing the same issue. went to Nokia Store. They said There is no warranty for this product. and they fixed power issue and took charge for that. But I cannot plug a SIM as there is no IMEI. and they couldn't solve that issue. So I've no choice other than flushing.
I assume there is no external flusher device required. I just need to connect the phone in USB put appropriate bin file there
I've a genuine IMEI. that I can use. But how would set IMEI after flushing ?

The device IMEI is fixed in the chipset. When device boots, NOLO will tell the IMEI to the running kernel via command line paraeter passing, and the applications in Harmattan get it from kernel. The problem here is that for some reason Harmattan does not get it correctly.
To check if this is so, go to terminal and type "cat /proc/cmdline"
You will see the IMEI as part of the command line parameters.
Why flashing corrects this, obviously you have some problem in the Harmattan core applications and flashing restores this.
If you knew what's the problem, you could just restore that application instead of flashing the device clean.

The problem is that some program block in Harmattan is not behaving correctly.

Is it necessary to select one particular country variant ? I've selected the first one RM-696 SE SE Black 16GB V1 - MR (059L4M9). Is there any fatal risk to select a different country like phone dead ?
and how would I know which one I am using ?

Code:
USB device found at bus 002, device address 003. Device identifier: 351669052218994 (SN: N/A) Found device RM-696, hardware revision 1603 NOLO version 2.3.6 Version of 'sw-release': DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR_006 Success
If there would be an exploit for end users to write their own imei on modem, Nokia would have to recall every single N9 device out there in the world. And that would be a bad thing for N9 lovers
