Thank you I guess you could be right that it cant get a charge because of the constant reboot. So I might need to find a way to charge it without being in the phone.

Get it to a repair centre first before you decide it's dead. It may just be a case of releasing a stuck power button.
Thanks for the suggestion but its not the button because if I remove the battery it is off until I turn it on then the fun starts again .. and again.. and again..

A new problem started after this the phone rebooted and comes with the black screen and the white dots and then turns off. I am trying to recharge with the USB method again as we speak if it is a case of the battery not being strong enough. I have never reflashed before so maybe somone can verify that the procedure and firmware above should be ok.

Does anyone know if the N900 charges while in USB mode. I started the USB mode with the phone connected to the charger. A yellow light is shown so I hope it is charging.

The reflash seems to have been successful, according to the status messags you posted. And yes, it should charge while in USB mode. If you see the yellow light flashing, everything should be fine at least with the charging process.

I found a thread with the same problem (it seems):
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ad.php?t=65012
According to this it might be a dead battery.

No it does not blink. I am just about to give up.. I have tried everything now. It finished reflashing but it still reboots constantly. For me it is strange if it is the battery that I can leave it in USB mode connected to the charger for 30 minutes and the light constantly yellow (not blinking)
