Working N9 that cannot enter flasher mode.
 

I dusted off a old n9 that still works and trying to flash in updates. I have winflasher 3.12.1 on windows 7 computer, command window opened as admin. ran the command first and then plug in the N9 that's off and fully charged.

Long story short. the N9 will simply go back to charging mode.

The U.S.B cable works since if i turn the phone on, windows will detect the phone and i can use it as USB device. yet I can never get winflasher to connect to it.

any ideas?

Drivers?

Or more probable Win7 64bit?
Then google for libusb (also here in forum, wiki...).

Many thanks

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Are you going by code on back of SIM tray which is 059L5T5: N9 RM-696 PRC China Unicom CN PRC CU Black_v1? Have you looked here, although don't know whether you need to register to download?

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

hallo everyone here!

There's 153 pages in this thread, and they had been summarized in http://wiki.maemo.org/Flashing_N9 quite some time ago.

Now things have changed, gone, adapted, this thread is growing and gets stuffed with information, but crawling the 153 pages and counting could hardly be called practical.

who wants to help cleaning up the http://wiki.maemo.org/Flashing_N9 guide?

I am willing to edit, formulate, remove, clean up, but I miss the information myself.

for example: Download Firmware image is just a collection of dead links; NaviFirm is the only reported tool for choosing a firmware, and without Nokia on the other end, it doesn't do a thing...

Made a start about a week ago with some of the information here with available software @ 1), which has been made a "sticky":

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

may I suggest preference for putting reference information in the Wiki, and to keep the talk for discussions? talk posts can't be updated but by the author, and talk threads tend to grow (what was that? 153 pages? that's a conversation, not a reference!).

something like:

• this post of mine, I would not put it in a wiki page. it's my post, it expresses my opinion, it's quite logic that it's only me who can edit it.

• a reference guide with links that need be maintained, that I would put in the wiki, not here, so that all good willing and good informed people can intervene if the original poster is not around.

(a couple of links in http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=100215 are already broken.)

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

AFAIK the only way to download a firmware is to use mirrors by community:
one
two (sorry for expired certificate, I'll fix it ASAP)
three (Russian)
four – seems to be dead for now (

you may also use uncle Google, as always :) (you need to know file name ;) )

Certificate host name mismatch, although valid until May 2018

It work, but still saying Insert Sim Card

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Did flash tool throw up any errors? If you tap Settings > About product - is IMEI shown? Prior to flashing did you check by reading barcode on this screen to confirm same as that upon Sim tray?

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

IMEI shown? Yes
No error shown when flashing the cmt.
No barcode on my sim tray.. But it should be 059J250

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Got me confused now as 059J20 is RM-696 NDT CHINA BLACK 16GB using DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR_LEGACY_003-OEM1-958 and you asked for carrier branded 059L5T5: N9 RM-696 PRC China Unicom CN PRC CU Black_v1 using DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3.418.2_PR_LEGACY_418_ARM_RM-696_PRD_signed.bin

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

i used DFL61_
HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3.418.2_PR_
LEGACY_418_ARM_RM-696_PRD_
signed.bin

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

in post #1526 you asked for Product code 059L5T5 but in post #1542 "no barcode on my sim tray.. But it should be 059J250"

Was wondering whether you needed to flash just cmt from older firmware.

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Yes, i bought it with 003.. i later flash it with 009 then i have cmt problem.. Then i need help from is forum to get 418.. Then flash the cmt it was success "but having problem of insert sim"

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

N9 with CMT dead issue: 059J1W4, HW 1601, DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR_LEGACY_001-OEM1-958_ARM.bin on board. Which one firmware I could try to fix cmt error? There is not IMEI

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Is it possible to upgrade Nokia N9 to the latest version now? I bought one from China for 40 EUR but the firmware is PR1.1 :(

- on the sim tray there is no information about product code (no sticker)
- I scaned also the qr code inside the settings and the website does not exists (cannot identify the product code),
- n9 came with not original box

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

You can upgrade rootfs, but You cant flash a Chinese version CMT (003) with any other CMT version. You will be stuck with a "WiFi only" N9!

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

How about using Harmattan flasher to read device?

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Can someone tell me if user more user friendly Flasher like

https://spflashtools.com/linux/sp-fl...-v5-1728-linux

Would do a difference. Sorry I don't use debian, and I tried to install the .deb. This flasher is even for linux, Can you teach us how to flash with that flasher?

Here you go

found that link directly on top of that page:
[*] How to Use: If you wish you can learn to use SP Flash Tool by following the step-by-step Guidelines on How to Use SP Flash Tool.

Well, but I do not think our beloved N9 meets this requirement:

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Hallo,
I just bought another N9, but it was already a 1.2 PR 1.3 region 003.
I flashed it to the 006 from maemo mirrors, but I notice some issue like freezing and no WIFi.

Now I am looking for my last chance, a 009 region (europe/global) firmware.

Some one know a trusted working firmware 009?

Thanks

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Hi,
have you tried flashing CMT from 003 firmware?

See this post: https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...8&postcount=15

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9
 

Thanks.
My Issue is that I can't find the 003 PR 1.3 anywhere.
Disappear from your link and also from maemo mirrors!

I understand that I need flashback this CMT modem from 003, leaving my actual swiss Firmware, that seem good for Italy.
