No, you use the command line to execute flasher... ;)

simply put you open a cmd (with admin rights!) and navigate to the flasher.exe

Okay download is complete for the firmware. Do guide! I have no idea what you just said up there...

^^

so, you installed winflasher right?
Now you need to copy the firmware.bin file to where the flasher.exe is

thats usually under C:\Program Files\Nokia\Flasher

now you need a CMD promt with admin permissions!

press start and type cmd in the search bar -> right click on cmd.exe and run as administrator

then navigate to the flasher folder (where the flasher.exe and your firmware image are)

to do that type in cmd

EDIT

Code:

cd "C:\Program Files\Nokia\Flasher"
to make things simpler rename the firmware image to main.bin

now you are ready to flash your device

shut down your N9 (if it's not already off) and

type this to flash the firmware

Code:

flasher -f -F main.bin
NOW you need to connect your n9 via USB and it should start flashing the firmware
you can monitor progress in cmd window

if it writes something like "success" or "flashing successful"
or something

type
Code:

flasher -R
and disconnect usb

there it is! good luck

The firmware file is in VLC media file (bin.) format. Is that correct? Like I said when I opend the file its a video for glee or it doesn't matter I just need to copy it to where the flasher folder is...

Re: Help: Reboot nokia n9
 
there is no such thing as a VLC media file .bin

if you see a vlc icon on the file it only means the .bin files are associated with vlc

doesn't necessarily mean it's a video file!

Do I need to copy the main.bin file to replace the firmware image like the video...http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/109/eqjq.png/

I find the video so much more relatable :)
