Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

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.

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

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"?

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

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,

jpfsn

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.

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

Hi Friends,

New and proud owner of a Nokia N9 from the Philippines here. :)

I made a video tutorial of the Wiki Article: http://wiki.maemo.org/Flashing_N9, same as what I have done for some of the Wiki Articles (N900 Flashing, NITDroid for N900, Preparation of Windows 7 64-bit for flashing with N900). It's my way of contributing to this community as I have no programming background.

Here is the link to the video - http://youtu.be/u5Qp92WttU4. To the OP, hope you won't mind if this gets added to the Wiki Article? Thanks. :)

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

So, my N9 is rebooting continuously. Do not cross the "NOKIA" logo.
Trying to flash, I got this error:

I'm on DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR_001, trying to flash the same.

What could this rootfs fail be, and how to avoid it?

Thanks anyway.

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

@amirgetss

Seems the firmware installed on your N9 is DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR006

And you are trying to flash firmware DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR005

It is not possible to downagrade firmware version once installed.
How the phone know if you try to downgrade?

It look at the PR_00x at the end of the firmware name.

So you'll have to flash a firmware with at least DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3_PR006 in the name and not below.

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

I uninstalled gtalk a moment ago, and the phone got stuck on "Device is malfunctioning" screen, would like to flash but can´t get to Nokia firmwares page (seems to be partially down)

Would anyone have an alternative link to pr1.3 firmware image for mac?

E: I do have the 1.2 firmware image but I guess I can't use that in any way?

Re: [HOWTO] Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide for N9

I have 059L9X6, it's a Vietnam model, PR 1.2

In Navifirm Plus for PR 1.3 release: 40.2012.21.3, there is no variant for 059L9X6.

I want to flash it with 059J236, which is India Variant.

Please help me.
Can I flash my 059L9X6 (as per the sim tray) with 059J236???

IIRC India Variant should be 005 or sth like that...Flash with a 001 variant then download whichever maps you want...That's the main difference...

I went from a PR1.2 pr005 to a pr1.3 pr001

It's more stable and better than the pr005 I was running.

My N9 seems to have a Vietnam country version firmware, PR1.2. Will there be any issues flashing to vanilla PR1.3?

I personally prefer vanilla no matter where I am... That's just me though...
