Hi,
I am reflashing an N9 with the same firmware version (Singapore 005) due to a 'boot loop' problem.
I get the Flasher to recognise the device; but when I try to start the flash I get "Error: Unknown argument" and a list of flasher options.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong, or the cause of the error?
Many thanks!
Remember to put double quotes around a filename if it has spaces in it.

I had a marathon 6 hours playing around, because I initially downloaded the incorrect firmware version; there were two identical file names, both for the right variant Singapore 005 - but I found out that the first was infact European. In all the frustration, I guessed that maybe the "quotes" were not required. Many thanks for the tip!! I will try again tomorrow and see how it goes.

I'm a native New Zealander working and living in China, where I bought my N9...
Love the phone but feed up with the region lock to China when going to the apps store or anything related.
Will changing the code from China's to Aus/Nz help with this matter in any way.
Tried contact nokia support via e-mail... but simply got the typical '"can not" when enquiring how I can access Apps in English.

Don't change the product code - just flash it with 005 (Asia-Pacific) firmware and see if it works. This will get rid of QQ/etc. and add Twitter/Facebook/Dropbox, also.

After having read the Comprehensive Firmware Flashing Guide several times, I have to say thank you very much to "itsnotabigtruck". Although, I've tried the the basic flash. I've recently posted about resetting the terminal password. Would flashing "Zeroize" help me in resetting everything on the device so that I can change my password as well? Sorry for the repeat in post.
