Got N810, also got screwed
 

Well, I finally got my n810.
It DID come with three batteries.
They were ALL chinese, though. no originals. Anyone got a spare they want to donate to a n00b?
As well, it did not come with the AC adapter! The seller stated that it came with all accessories, I even specified that I didn't care so much about the extras (batteries, screen protector), as long as it had the usb cable and the AC ADAPTER.
Does anyone happen ot have a spare AC-4 they can express ship?


As well, I need a bit of help with flashing my tablet. I'm still a n00b and a search didn't show how.

You'll need the adapter first as you don't want to do this unless the tablet is fully charged.

Any modern Nokia standard should do, FWIW.

If you do get a new charger: I'd highly recommend the AC-5X (U if American variant) over the 4X. Both mine and my brother's 4X broke in 4 months (I was on my second 4X at this point) but our 5X's are still going strong.

It arrived fully charged.

I hope that Walmart or Radioshack have the AC-4 charger, or someone can sell me one for cheap with fast shipping. All I have is three batteries and an external battery charger.


Getting the flasher application now, though

Do you think Walmart or Radioshack would have it? Those are the only "electronics" (as in they have electronics) in my area.
Though I will look for them on Amazon or Buy, unless someone wants to point me to a better place to look.

After contacting the seller, it LOOKS like an honest mistake. He said he's going ot ship it when he got home from work.

It'll take a bit to see if it's really an honest mistake, but he gets points for maintaining contact and responding promptly.

You're lucky then. When something like this happens, it's usually not a mistake and the sellers never reply back. Trust me, I've seen it all too much before.

Okay, trying ot flash the tablet is seriously starting to frustrate me. It doesn't stay it "flash mode" long enough for the program to pick it up, no matter how many times I try.

Other than "electronics" stores, check out places that sell accessories for cell phones. In other words, any place that sells cell phones or cell phone plans. You should be able to locate a Nokia charger there.
