Hello all
I got a briked N900 that was in loop boot
I flashed both emmc and OS using this article :
http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware
and there wasn't any problem during the procces

but still in boot loop .
I also tried zImage-fb-omap1-pr13 to see what's going on and why is geting restart but it's too fast and I didn't undrestand it very well but usually in final it's says
"rebooted in 1 second" or " starting camera demond"
and start from over

and sometime it's getting dim during this process
is anyone has idea how can I fix it?
(and also sorry for my bad english )

make sure to correctly follow the guide here http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware#N900

If it still doesn't boot, try to enable R&D mode:

Code:
./flasher-3.5 --enable-rd-mode
./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset
./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-omap-wd
./flasher-3.5 --set-rd-flags=no-ext-wd
If it still doesn't boot, post again here.

What did you have as a config on your phone before you bricked it? I mean, did you manually configure any special settings or something?

Did you multi boot? did you play with bootloader?

What were you doing when you bricked it?

Does it still boot but restart when you try something or does it reboot at the white dots? do you see maemo at all? ( i ask because of the message you receive about camera)

EDIT: Ok, forget the last part, i did not notice the framebuffer kernel at first.

I usually make it fully charged with an external universal charger

I have question about "act_dead" and "hello act_dead "
these messages are normal?
