I believe it is very important to point out that the flasher is not working (Suitable USB Interface not found) on Windows 7 64bit.

Please remark the prerequisites in this guide to assist other users.

Hi, this may be a silly question, but I've been mentally preparing myself for flashing pr 1.3 since OTA update did not show up for my variant yet, and here's the thing. I've read that one should consider "clean flash" as a good start for pr 1.3 - would that be something like "Comprehensive reset " procedure as described in the first post? On the other hand, will flashing just the .bin file be any worse in terms of performance - I understand it will wipe e.g. faster N9 that I have installed anyway. so is there any benefit to do a "clean flash"?

What's the command to just flash a dual boot kernel?

A bit off topic but has relevance for flashing: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...46#post1235946

Maybe someone has the same issue?

Hello,

Just a query, the phone locked up after some issues with the Nokia Drive software, it crashed (after a very hard day, just went blank) and then rebooted and now is stuck on the Nokia screen so i would class it as "bricked".

If i do a flash of just the OS, would i loose my contacts/sms also? I'm not so bothered about settings or applications i do have a backup at work, but its not recent.

if it would, is there a way to "backup" in the state its in or am i doomed?

regards,

Flashing just the OS with the file ending OEM1-958_ARM.bin will leave your personal data intact. That includes SMS, contacts, photos, music etc.
