N9 keeps restarting
 
After installing a program called qt( it was supposed to boost the phone) my phone keeps restarting. If I put the usb and connect it to pc...it switches on but stays on lock screen and i can't do a thing. I tried to flash it but I've set it to "mass storage" before so it goes in this mode by itself when I put the usb in...and I read that it is supposed to be in sync mode to flash it...but how can I make it in sync mode when I can't even unlock it and go to home screen...pls HELP

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
well just switch off your phone, enter the commands to flash and then plug your phone it in...mass storage or what wont matter if your phone is off...

I tried it and something starts to happen...but after a few seconds the window closes and nothing happens. The phone display switches off and the LED lamp is blinking and that's it

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
well thats because you are not doing it correctly...

open cmd.exe as admin on your pc
cd c:\program files\nokia\flasher
flasher -f -F rootfs.bin -R

once a suitable device is not found message comes up plug in your powered off device to the pc...

a window opens and closes instantly...is it possible that my windows flasher is not good...it is version 3.12.1 I'm pretty desparate...I don't want to take it to the service care because it will take a lot of time i suppose and i don't have other phone i need this one

thedead1440 2012-09-12 12:09

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
the window opens and closes as you didn't run cmd.exe as admin first!

Just follow my earlier posts steps and you will run it...

I did what you said and that's what happens...i run the program as administrator and some text appears fast than it stops and it's written "finishing in error state with status 10" and also "ERROR failed to flash image" and upper text says "something terminated with error code 10: security failure" :( i will shoot myself in the head ;(

i renamed the big bin file which is 1 gb to rootfs.bin but which do you want to rename emmc.bin ? RM696_059J204_20.2011.40.4_001_signature maybe this ? it is 4 kb

thedead1440 2012-09-12 13:53

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
no its the emmc file see it....2.78gb...

n0expire 2012-09-12 14:01

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
i renamed the file that i mentioned above to emmc.bin because there was no other bin file except the rootfs.bin so it has to be the other one RM696_059J204_20.2011.40.4_001_signature.bin i started the new program you gave me and it started to erase again

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
how can image mmc not be present when you downloaded the emmc.bin?

n0expire 2012-09-12 15:31

Re: N9 keeps restarting
 
i don't know...are you sure that it's not supposed to be mmc.bin i wonder?

if there is a way to skip the erasing it will be faster because the erasing lasts too long :)
