[Help] Flashing doesn't seem to work
 
Hi everyone

this'll have been the umpteenth time that i've asked for help her....

So here's the problem, hildon-home on my n900 all of a sudden started running at 80%+, the only app that I have recently installed was the new facebook app (installed a few hours prior). I was unable to kill hildon-home, and then when I got a text it all went horribly wrong, the notification stays there and I am unable to click on it. So I thought I would reflash it, however the problem still persists, I am also unable to create a back up or customise the desktop by pressing the desktop menu.

The device also becomes unresponsive and the only way to get it to work is to take the battery out

My guess is that it has something to do with hildon-desktop, does anyone know if it is replaceable??

I have flashed the device for the 3rd time and still no dice....

any help would be greatly appreciated

I had the exact same issues and then some. My advice? Run. Run fast from this junk.

Good luck.

i originally just flashed rootfs the first few times, but then I just couldnt wait any longer and decided to flash emmc aswell. That seems to have worked, but the down side is I was up all night restoring everything....
thank god I dont have uni today cause I got up at 12pm!!
