Cool, that's great news!!
I was not aware of it working, and I had to go to my brother's house to flash my N800 with XP!!!
( I tried to install Canola, but something got corrupted and apps were crashing like crazy ).

Thanks for sharing, folks.

One question remains unanswered. What is the actual process of "flashing" the N800? I got the cable, I got the software, but its name ends with .macos . No application will open it, and I can not double click it to open.

How does the process work? Do I need to launch the console? The disk doesn't show up on my Mac OS desktop.

Bear with me, I am no Linux geek. The moment I bought the N800, I thought it was a consumer device. No one told me you need to know such tedious processes like flashing a device if something goes wrong. Worst of it all, Nokia doesn't have any official support for this problem either.

Hi:

The 770 flasher app worked for me.

I had to take out both sd cards. It didn't work on one of my powerbook's usb ports but did work on the other. . .go figure! So try all of your usb ports and take out your cards.

I'm trying to flash my N800 with the latest software (RX-34_2007SE_3.2007.10-7_PR_MR0) on my MacBook using flasher-2.0 and I get the following message:

Found device RX-34, hardware revision 1201
NOLO version 1.1.3
Version of 'sw-release': RX-34_2007SE_2.2006.51-6_PR_MR0
To flash the bootloader, you have to supply the X-Loader image

Any ideas on how I can procced? Where do I download the X-Loader image from?

Thanks.
