I have a N900 and love it.
Its managed to update fine untill now.
In the App Manager there is an update that comes up each day called Maemo 5. Details - Improvement performance etc.

I believe this is PR1.3?
It says I can only update it using my PC. Tried that, and it doesn't work.
So I looked into flashing it and updating from there.

I follow this info for Windows http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_t...ng_your_device

I type in the Comand prompt and press enter and nothing happens to the device. And on screen the Comand prompt also doesnt change.

I'm not very technical in this way and don't know what else to do
Please help.
Check out this site

The images to download are
PR1.3 - RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin & RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin.
Hope it helps.

The commands to be run in the maemo flasher are,
"flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin -f"

then without rebooting or switching on the N900 run THIS LINE

"flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R"

All with out the [ " " ]
