There is a part about flashing the kernel from a fiasco image down the side I linked to.

hehe sorry Mrs. michaaa62 , ah ok so i will just type that command in the flasher software installed in my pc to install only the kernel. Hope i can do it because i don't know how to open my N900 to idle mode because the battery was drained and it is difficult to charge it, and since the requirement is having a full-charge battery to re-flash any suggestions that u know and might share it to me?

Really, no. Please find out what a virus is, before making random wrong assumptions. Thanks.

Actually it was a joke...:D you almost never know the person behind a nick, to add to the confusion: It is Mister! :eek: But really, do i care??? At least, there is no insult in any of them.:cool:

Back to the topic.

Because the kernel is corrupted. Try to get an external charger or some phone which has a same, battery. I was purchasing a phone in the Philipines, Manila, which is quite useful as external charger, but also brings an exchange battery. Here is the thread about it: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...hlight=battery
The flasher utility may just flash the kernel with a depleted battery, you might want to try it.

if you ever get any errors on any type of storage in the future, scan and fix the drive with a windows pc, and tick scan for bad sectors box.

If your PC runs Windows, then download the maemo_flasher3.5.exe file and follow the instuctions.
your pc runs MacOS you might go for the .dmg files.
