Hi Robbie hope you can help.
I have had BackupMenu for a while but think I was on the previous version. My N900 started to play with with random error so I thought of this app and went into the menu to do a restore. I chose to restore rootfs and opt as it was the recommended choice.
All seemed to start well with the backup but seemed to be taking a very long time extracting the image. Long story short I left it to work over night but when I woke this morning the phone was in a continous reboot loop and would not boot. All I now get is the Nokia splash and then it reboots itself. Even turning on with the keyboard open does nothing, not even loading the BackupMenu option. I have tried going for a reflash but the phone will not go into update mode(I have flashed many times so know the procedure well). It is also not charging, when you plug either the wall charger in or usb you get the faint nokia logo in the background for approx 1 minute then it reboots. I know that the phone cannot go into update mode with less than 50% battery life so that may be that issue which I will try later hopefully with a full battery from another phone.
Any ideas on where to go from here? My PC does not even recognise it connected anymore, not even a confirmation beep.
Thanks
