then I tried from the terminal following the procedure and instead of having the "Suitable USB device not found, waiting" in the end, the command line just end and nothing is happening at all.
anyone can help me ?
According to [1] the flasher hasn't worked on OSX for a while.

It might be easier using an Ubuntu Live CD or virtual machine (or a Windows XP PC). If you can't find the flasher provided by Nokia, try using the Open Free Fiasco Firmware Flasher (0xFFFF) [2] as it's currently in development by Pali from this community - but you'll need to use Linux to use it.
