I dusted off a old n9 that still works and trying to flash in updates. I have winflasher 3.12.1 on windows 7 computer, command window opened as admin. ran the command first and then plug in the N9 that's off and fully charged.

Long story short. the N9 will simply go back to charging mode.

The U.S.B cable works since if i turn the phone on, windows will detect the phone and i can use it as USB device. yet I can never get winflasher to connect to it.

any ideas?

Drivers?

Or more probable Win7 64bit?
Then google for libusb (also here in forum, wiki...).

Many thanks

Are you going by code on back of SIM tray which is 059L5T5: N9 RM-696 PRC China Unicom CN PRC CU Black_v1? Have you looked here, although don't know whether you need to register to download?

Please have a read of this thread before considering use of European firmware:https://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?...83&postcount=6

hallo everyone here!

There's 153 pages in this thread, and they had been summarized in http://wiki.maemo.org/Flashing_N9 quite some time ago.

Now things have changed, gone, adapted, this thread is growing and gets stuffed with information, but crawling the 153 pages and counting could hardly be called practical.

who wants to help cleaning up the http://wiki.maemo.org/Flashing_N9 guide?

I am willing to edit, formulate, remove, clean up, but I miss the information myself.

for example: Download Firmware image is just a collection of dead links; NaviFirm is the only reported tool for choosing a firmware, and without Nokia on the other end, it doesn't do a thing...

Made a start about a week ago with some of the information here with available software @ 1), which has been made a "sticky":
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=100215

may I suggest preference for putting reference information in the Wiki, and to keep the talk for discussions? talk posts can't be updated but by the author, and talk threads tend to grow (what was that? 153 pages? that's a conversation, not a reference!).

something like:

• this post of mine, I would not put it in a wiki page. it's my post, it expresses my opinion, it's quite logic that it's only me who can edit it.

• a reference guide with links that need be maintained, that I would put in the wiki, not here, so that all good willing and good informed people can intervene if the original poster is not around.

(a couple of links in http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=100215 are already broken.)

AFAIK the only way to download a firmware is to use mirrors by community:
one
two (sorry for expired certificate, I'll fix it ASAP)
three (Russian)
four – seems to be dead for now (

you may also use uncle Google, as always (you need to know file name )

Certificate host name mismatch, although valid until May 2018

Am just looking for 418 variant... I have cmt problem
