Re: [SOLVED] n9 won't charge
 
Hi.
I'm currently trying this out.

My first N9 died a week ago and couldn't charge it anymore. Reading the posts here I decided to buy a new battery, but the thing didn't work either......maybe it's wishful thinking but there may be another internal battery inside the device apart from the main one, and it is discharged?

Fortunately I happen to have a USB controlled USB switch and now I'm powering it on and off in duty cycles with 26 seconds on and 4 seconds off.

Let's see what happens.

Regards.

PS: The USB device is this.

Hi.

After a lot of hours of charging and trying the device won't boot. I've been searching high and low for information about cold flashing my N9, but I have only found good information for the N900.

This is what I do to cold flash it:
Code:
user$ sudo flasher -f -F DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR_LEGACY_009-OEM1-958_ARM.bin --flash-only=nolo -c
flasher 3.12.1 (Oct  5 2011) Harmattan

From this I draw the conclusion that the battery is fine and the USB port is also OK, but I have run out of tests to bring it back to life.

Can anyone point me to a good source of information about this 'cold flashing' stuff? As I said before I tried the info available here for the N900 but the flasher has different options....

Regards.
