Hi all,

Hopefully someone can help with an issue I encountered last night after flashing my n900 to PR1.2. Flash worked as it would be expected, no problems, tablet reset and started up on the regional settings screen.

Completed those details, and upon the restart of Maemo, I noticed the network info at the top of the screen (next to time) had turned into a Sim card with a red score through it, as if there was no Sim card inserted.

Has anyone encountered this issue before, or could anyone help regarding this problem.

I am going to re-flash the tablet again to see if that helps the issue.

Thanks
Bryan

Sounds like you may have flashed to an older version rather than the new one (I did the same ! ) What is the full file name of the firmware you flashed?

That is an old version. The version you want for UK is:-
RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1.203.1_PR_COMBINED_203_ARM

Re-flash with that, and it may be worth flashing the emmc too.

Download the latest vanilla emmc and then run then flash the firmware WITHOUT the "-R" command at the end and then flash the emmc immediately.
Code:

./flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1.203.1_PR_COMBINED_203_ARM.bin -f
./flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R

Thanks bockersjv. Have downloaded the image, will try it when the battery has more than 10% life left in it.

Note that when you flash the eMMC everything on the "Nokia N900" part of your phone will be removed.

Has worked. Thank you very much. Suppose in my rush to get it sorted, I never actually looked at the info relating to the images. Just assumed that the top image would be the correct one.

ToJa92. Only thing I'm missing is my contacts list, which I have backed up on my laptop thankfully
