The whole system did start new..leaving for my contacts,conversations and calendar. I wanted all this to be removed too. Is it not possible to remove this during the flash??
or is there any more hard reset to n900??
Don't just start a new thread: repost with what the problem is, in the same thread!

OK, so you need to flash the storage on the device, called the eMMC.

On the reflashing page in the Wiki, there are instructions for how to do this. It's very similar to what you've just done, except it takes two processes: (a) flash eMMC then (b) flash the file-system (aka FIASCO).

Do NOT restart device in between processes AND the order is important - eMMC then FIASCO.

ps. it doesn't matter that you've done the fiasco already.
