it seems like this is gonna be a problem for a lot of N900 users. NSU bricks some of the phones.

im gonna test tonight another battery and see if it works to. i think nokia need to make some sort of recovery proccess as this isnt working out.


try this. put your 5800 fully charged battery in your n900.
then
1. remove battery
2. connect USB cable
3. start flasher-3.5 from command line
4. insert battery
5. flashing starts

if you entered this command into the flasher -R it will restart you phone as soon its finished flashing.

flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.42-11_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R

******just to let you guys know. nokia called me just now about my n900 being bricked after a NSU. they are investigating it. they got every bit of detail off me. might be getting a replacement. it seems to be an issue with a batch of them if you try to flash it.********

they finally got back to me after all the emails.
