Tried using the flasher, say's it unpacked images then say's "Nothing to Do" then gives lists of flasher options.

WTF do I do next cause no one seems to know what to do and I've followed all steps according to maemo wiki

Thanks, I'm just really emoraging right now cause nothing is working

mate i had the same issue. I thought the phone was fully charged but it was not. I recommend you get a fully charged spare battery or get a desktop charger for your n900. trust me 100% its your battery. the phones firmware controls the charging. if the firmware is not there or damaged it will never fully charge, maybe only 0.1% so you might be able to turn it on for a few seconds. It keeps restarting when you try to charge because the firmware is not there or damaged. The exact same thing happened to me. I kept it on charge for 2 days and it still didn’t fully charge, when I tested my battery on another 5800 it was fully dead.

I used a full battery from a 5800 and it worked for me. Trust me use another battery you know for a fact is 100% charged and try again. Thank me when it works

if you go back to the start of this thread you will see that i had the same issues as you.
