Unable to flash my N900

Hi,

I'm tryin to flash my Noka n900 and here is what I do:
Take out batteries,
hold u,
plug in usb,
plug in batteries,
still hold u,
release u after a few seconds...

Now the phone seems to be in flashing mode, since it shows the usb-icon and has no backlight.
Also a 'lsusb' show me:
"Nokia Mobile Phones Nokia Firmware Upgrade Mode"

...
then I'm trying to start the flasher with:

Code:

sudo flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f

First it recognizes my device, but then the phone reboots into normal mode and the flasher won't recognize it anymore until I redo the whole procedure.

Ideas on how to fix this / anyway flash my device?

Greets,
Finnhax

Start flasher first, then put in the USB cable.
