Hello, I am new but have been reading and looking for files to download ie flasher and firmware but does not seem to be good archive of files around almost all links are bad or information is incomplete.

main reason why I am posting and I apologize to mods if this is not right place for this post. I just got a Brand new Nokia N900 from Hong Kong. It will not power on. I dont know if it needs to be on fully to charge. ac adapter and another usb cable would not keep the yellow charge light blinking. get the micro usb B connector half way installed to n900 usb B port the charge light flashes then goes away. both ac adapter and cable works fine with my jabra cruiser 2 but n900 no go.
I tried the usb computer cable cord that came with the phone and hooked it up to the computer it gets the yellow charge light blinking constantly fully plugged in. charge light blinks away with one specific cable for half hour then turns off no green light or other color. If I unplug the cable plug it back in it will blink away for half hour then stop.

I read someone recommended flashing the n900 but when I hold u button and plug the usb cable in nothing happens.

raised dispute on ebay about it being defective. anyone have any suggestions or is this thing DOA toast.

also if anyone knows of a good place to get flash files I would be greatfull.

appreciate any help
