Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

If AgogData's suggestion doesn't work, you can also try

Code:

sudo gainroot

dpkg --force -r starhash-enabler

For future reference, if I recall correctly, you don't need starhash-enabler with the PR1.3 firmware, if I recall correctly.

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

Well I can't run *115# to check my balance until I install starhash-enabler, so I guess you do need it even in PR1.3.

I could've sworn I tested it before... Well, if you're sure it doesn't work, fair enough.

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

USSD ( 3digit *NNN# ) works since PR1.2 iirc without *#-ena
network control codes ( 2digit *NN# ) need *#-ena to work

If HAM refuses to uninstall *#-ena, simply open menu in dialer and set autorotation to some arbitrary value, THEN STORE. This creates the file that *#-ena modifies on installing/uninstalling - sorry for the little flaw in install routine of *#-ena causing this inconvenience (I simply didn't think of situations where that file would vanish after *#-ena got installed - usually there are no such cases ;-D )

BTW *#-ena must get installed/uninstalled via HAM, it doesn't work in apt-get reliably, a "returns -1" or "internal error" could also mean you ran into this trap.

Please try

apt-get update

apt-get install -f

dpkg --configure -a

I am not sure about the state of catorise application, there could be a dependency towards perl be missing, but there is catoriseplus package, which should install fine.

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

It has actually now gone bad;

I have two batteries, I charge and change since my usb is faulty. This afternoon, my battery died so I removed that one and put in another one which was fully charged by then.
On restarting, the phone starts up as usual, nokia logo and the hands pass and after that, the phone stays on for like 5-10 seconds and goes off. After 15 seconds, it brings itself back on and this repeats over and over again.

I can't really tell what went wrong, and it goes off so fast, before I even get to contents of Menu.....

Confused and really confused, please advicee..:mad:

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

Try to pull the battery for a couple of minutes for the memory to reset, try to charge the last working battery and start the N900 with that again.
If your N900 shuts itself down due to low power, it could happen that the kernel gets corrupted. Is this stock nokia kernel or kernel-power?

Nokia Software updater does not detect the phone anyhow.

what happens when the kernel gets corrupted Michaaa62?

btw, I have just tried to restart it, and just after entering the lock code and starts, a call came through, I answered and the call lasted up to around 1 minute. On checking it again, it was locked on the qtlockscreen and on sliding to unlock, the led lit white and went off

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

Please try to reflash the kernel only from a firmware image. It seems the failed kernel install makes the device fail.

This is the wiki article giving you the instructions and informations about the processhttp://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_t...rt_topic.21.29

Do not just flash the firmware, try the kernel-only option before. Because camera also depends on kernel modules, that might just got corrupted during the failed kernel change.

The biggest problem I have is that I can't detect my phone. I later installed some windows xp package which recognizes the phone but in Mass Storage mode hence the pc suite or the updater can't explore the device until it is turned into pc suite mode.

I tried the flasher style to no avail since it looks like I'll have to do this from linux since the command looks ubuntuish "sudo....."

To be honest, am not well acquitted with deep programming, anybody can help me roll out this one? I will have to learn more i know but for now I need my tablet back up....:o

The only point am missing and it makes it hard is..."Flashing only the kernel from a FIASCO image"

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

Simply face it, Maemo is also Debian-based, a little knowledge about linux will not hurt you too bad. Windows USB-driver seem to fail in certain situations. But you also could just look into running linux in a virtualbox to access the phone.

Prepare your folder with the fiasco image and the flasher utility package in an easy to access place on your hard disk, like drive C:.
Grab the Live-CD from ftp://ftp.lug.udel.edu/pub/siduction...1212092122.iso This is a Debian system.

Boot your PC from the CD. May be you have to access the BIOS settings to change the boot order to start the CD. Inside the running Debian-Live-CD start a terminal application, gain root rights

Code:

su

Mount the hard disk

Code:

mount /dev/sda2 /media/diskpart2

May be you have to change the number in the code to reflect your PC's setup. Change into the directory (folder), where you have the files ready

Code:

cd /media/diskpart2

That is if you have the files on drive C:. Now install the flasher-utility

Code:

dpkg -i maemo-flasher-3.5*

Shut down your phone. Start the flasher in the terminal

Code:

flasher3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R

Connect the phone now to your PC's USB. This will flash the kernel only from the fiasco image to boot up the phone. If it boots everything is fine.

If not, you have to use the command without the flash-only=kernel option to reset the phone.

Hope it helps!

Please feel free to ask, if necessary

cheers Micha

Am grateful for your assistance Micha, am really grateful.

Question; I managed to get a system running on Ubuntu, do I still need the Live-CD? Or do I go into the next step direct.

michaaa62

2013-02-10 16:36

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

No need for the Live-CD in this case!
But you have to change the commands slightly for Ubuntu. You need to add 'sudo' to the commands that need root privileges. For sudo to succeed you need the password of the user:

Code:

sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/diskpart2

cd /media/diskpart2

sudo dpkg -i maemo-flasher-3.5*

sudo flasher3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R

Hi Micha,

I keep getting the error, "mount: mount point /media/diskpart2 does not exist" after being prompted for password and inputting the same....kindly assist.

Re: unable to uninstall *#Starhsah Enabler

Sorry my fault, did not adapt all the code to Ubuntu, sorry! I am not that familiar with mount point naming in Ubuntu, but almost everything 'custom-made' works.

To make it clear: The partition number might differ on your PC, this is /dev/sdaX, where X is the digital to correspond to windows drive where you have the files.

Add this command before the above commands

Code:

sudo mkdir /media/diskpart2

The name of the mount point is up to the user, it may be anything, but mkdir will create it.

Hi Michaa, all this time av been tryin to flash the kernel image but I seem to get issues anytime anywhere. I was able to mount my phone onto ubuntu bt now my issue is a dpkg error processing instalation, maemo-flasher-3.5. See, the third line of the code you sent me Michaa, any advice?

See below, the error message am getting....
Please assist....

Guys, am so so so so glad I made it. I was not able to flash the kernel alone, said was successful but on restarting, experienced the same issues. So I flashed the firmware and here we go, check out the image just in-case someone else has this same issue; plus please note that I didn't lose my internal memory data...

Thanks to you Michaa, you inspired me to learn Terminal codes..can't thank you enough.
