Update: I returned it to the service centre last week. They rang yesterday; flashing it failed to fix the issue apparently (... ) so they've sent me back the brick and told me they'll ring if there's a software update that might help.
To be fair, the N900 was never released in NZ, and it sounded like they may have been a bit out of their depth, but brings a whole new meaning to service; You send us a brick, we can fix it to work like... a brick. Does buying over the internet void your warranty?

I've been using my N900 for about a year now. A day ago I lost all the telephony services; it appeared ? at random, although it may have been after a software update. Googling around I found a number of posts that indicated flashing the brick might help.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, and the flashing process goes fine, right up to the end, when it reads : CMT flashing failed. It's reset all my applications, but the telephony services remain dead. FWIW, initially the 5 flashing dots on startup were going at a rapid and semi-random rate; they're now back to a sequential pattern.
I can't find any indication as to what's gone wrong. Do I need to use an alternative OS? I've appended the full output.
Reading through it I note my toy has a hardware revision of 2101, which seems to be a fairly early model. Is that relevant?
