Im going to call them tomorrow and they better send me a new phone overnight and not make us wait like 3-7 business days

they will probley make you take it to a Nokia service centre and they will try to flash it. if they cant they will replace the board. happened to me when i first got the N95. on the third week of having it, it bricked during a update. they made me wait a month for repairs. then the camera lens switch was playing up and guess what, another month. lol i didnt have a good run

I haven't updated the device through NSU. It might be specific NSU issues. I encourage you to file bugzilla to give stronger feedback to Maemo team.

Flasher might be the safest way (from my experience) since you are going to develop some apps on Maemo. I have flashed my devices hundreds times with flasher, not a single failure yet.

Sorry I couldn't provide experience from Windows perspective because I don't have Windows at all. :-/

so I guess youre going to go through the same thing again?

Re: Nokia N900 firmware update failed. Now Im stuck with my 5800. Yay?
 

they better not put me through that again. i will be very very very upset if they do. the lady on the phone was very nice though, seems like she cared. she tryed to ask me for the details of other people who won phones on blogs.nokia.com and got them bricked so she can call them.

by the way. im never using NSU again. EVER EVER EVER AGAIN. i will be logging a BUG report

Re: Nokia N900 firmware update failed. Now Im stuck with my 5800. Yay?
 

IM NEVER GOING TO UPDATE PERIOD lol

Re: Nokia N900 firmware update failed. Now Im stuck with my 5800. Yay?
 

noooo updating is very good. it brings a lot to the device. the N900 will get better with each update. but ill be using flasher and not NSU. if NSU wasnt around, u and i will be playing with our MID's right now

LOL but you know when something traumatic happens to you (e.g. A New York baseball player was pitched a ball to his head. Ever since then he doesn't play the same) dont want to do it again. Thats how I feel. . . .

If you want to develop N900 apps without device available running, please consider using RDA service: http://www.forum.nokia.com/Technolog...Device_Access/

It may help you kill some time.
