N9 Flashing error
 
1 Attachment(s)
Yesterday i went to flash my N9 to remove all the mods i had put on it as i was selling it on.

When i initially tried to flash it the flasher tool threw me some error about a bb5 checksum or something like that, i then decided to try and zeroize the device but having done this the device no longer seems to even register being turned on.

The screenshot attached is what i am now presented with when i try to flash the device.

if you had installed nemo which modifies partition table you need to add --no-preserve to your flashing command, so it would restore the partition table. Flashing guide page seems to forget to mention that flag :)

sudo flasher -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin --erase-user-data=secure --no-preserve -R

If this works i may have to ask for your hand in marriage.

Are you using the correct version of firmware for your product-code ?

And you are flashing both firmware, and EMMC ?
(you didnt provide your commandline, so I cant tell ;))

You may want to try adding -c to the flasher command line parameter (cold-flash) if everything else fails.
This might enable you to flash the bootloader,after which you probably can do a complete warm-flash (without the -c as you are doing).

The command i used was "flasher --erase-user-data=secure --no-preserve -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin -R"

How do i use the -c?

"flasher --erase-user-data=secure --no-preserve -f -F main.bin -F emmc.bin -R -c"

I assume you have then renamed the original file to main.bin and emmc.bin ;)

Did you try to just flash cellular modem?
"flasher -f -F main.bin --flash-only=cmt"
