So I was up late last night fiddling around with my new n9, I got an OTA update to pr1.3 on my Swiss variant N9 (059l5d4), and I felt like doing a fresh flash of the firmware just because I always feel better about having a 100% fresh install, for whatever reason.
My product code variant wasn't available on Navifirm, so I downloaded a few random 64gb firmwares all with the same resulting "finishing in error state with status 10" for not allowed to downgrade. Finally, one worked! I was tired, and probably should have been paying more attention, but I flashed the China Unicom firmware. So now I'm stuck with a load of chinese pre installed apps, no twitter, and an annoying boot video with a fun little jingle. I have since tried flashing numerous firmware images, all with the resulting " finishing in error state with status 10", even with some that have higher version numbers! For instance... the China unicom version I flashed was-

DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3.418.2_PR_LEGACY_418_ARM_RM-696_PRD_signed

And the latest one I tried was -

DFL61_HARMATTAN_40.2012.21-3.468.1_PR_LEGACY_468_ARM_RM-696_PRD_signed

with the same error code outcome. Can anyone out there shed any light on what I may be doing wrong? Am I wrong in trying to look for a firmware with a higher number scheme in it? Is there a way to "force" flasher to put a different firmware on the phone? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I know it was a horribly stupid mistake and I deserve the pain and suffering I've been going through because of it. Help please!
