Sorry I am a noob,

i need the firmware file s I can re-flash my bricked N900 (stuck on boot up 2 circle from the left).

New to Nokia and Maemo. Rooted and re-flashed my G1 several times, bricked it several times lol. However Nokia and Maemo seem different, anyone with this information that would like to help me work through the process would be helpful (I do not want to send the phone back to Nokia).

Mods if this is a duplicate please move, again sorry...

Note! It sounds from your description your device can be fixed without a reflash. See:

to make it easier u can shorten the filename of the *.bin file(s) when flashing. its really quite easy, once you find how to do it! It took me longer to find this than to actually flash my N900!

Make sure youre USB cable is plugged into the back of your computer into a main USB port for best results. *(the below wont work unless you do)*

i suggest doing the emmc flash also for best results. (this will format user docs etc, so BACKUP)
