It's not normal to have to install from a terminal. If I got a N900 like that, I would start by reflashing.

Niko: It appears that you can get flashing instructions in espanol for the N900

here

The Argentina site didn't have N900 information, but the Spain site did.

Tap the title bar and open the Log section, what do the last few lines show?
Edit: well they might not be a few, open App Manager, let it open up properly, get to flashlight, before you click it click the title bar, open the log and clear it, then try to install flashlight, you will get the error, open the log again and paste what it says.
