Bricked N9 need help urgently
 

Hi everyone never have I gone from beeing so happy to so sad so quickly.

I had been playing around with my n9 and decided I wanted to reset it to the factory default. I had the phone plugged into the USB on my PC and I had the sim card inserted. I then did the following

Open “Settings”
Tap “Reset”
Choose “Clear Device”
Tap “Yes” to confirm the process.

I went away for a few hours and came back to my phone being stuck on the nokia screen. I have now tried hard resetting several times and the phone will not boot it always just brings up the nokia screen and hangs there.

Is there any key combinations to force a reset of the software or a way to flash using the computer. I need help now! Thank you community.

you should reflash it just to be sure.

Oh, we've had quite a few of those over in the Handtec thread ...

Its not bricked!
Just reflash it.
Then it should work again.

I bricked my N9 yesterday. But reflashing process is really straightforward, it was really easy -- no data was lost. :)

How did you do that?
Did you do a backup before "bricking" and restoring it afterwards?
AFAIK you still will lose any data in MyDocs...

Nope, no backups at all. Phone showed "Device is malfunctioning!", so I downloaded stock image and ran "flasher -F <image> -f -c", waited few minutes and boot up phone. Almost everything was there. Missing stuff: favorite flag for contacts, passwords to accounts (MfE, CalDav, ...), all 3rd party applications and settings. But music, videos, contacts, messages, emails, etc. were untouched.
