The OneClickFlasher is updated today.

You can find it here.

Here is the news from Nokia:

The Beta2 firmware release is now provided in the OneClickFlashers. The Beta2 release provides a number of bug fixes and functional changes, along with the addition of a number of features and applications (Nokia Store, a Twitter client, and a WiFi hotspot application among others). 'Developer Edition' marking and the SDK installer have been removed.

I wish it can turn my brick N950 on again...

Code:

stuart@stuart-desktop:~/Harmattan$ sudo ./Linux_OCF_34-2_EMMC_RM680-OEM1-916.bin 
This is OneClickFlasher for release 34-2
 - it will erase previous EMMC from the device
 - install the RM680 OEM image
 - install the EMMC RM680 content

Anyone else used the Linux flasher? I noticed some others at meego.com have faced the same error.

I have no problem in my device. There is an arrow on the screen after flash. You just need to wait for 20 mins for it to disappear.

"'Developer Edition' marking and the SDK installer have been removed."

Interesting...

The "Developer Edition" branding was not needed anymore because it was too easy to remove it. Also there are just minimal differences between the N950 firmware and the N9 firmware (some preinstalled Games, mostly) so there is no need to brand it as dev edition anymore.

The SDK installer was just the SDK installer file on the memory of the device. It is totally possible to download it now (wasn't the case when the devices were handed out) and that means that there is no need to distribute it using the firmware/devices.

the linux image on developer site is sometimes broken. Many people have had problems with it. Windows file works.

Be careful when flashing, backups made with backup tool will not get you your contacts back. You need to export to vcards and back them up. If you restore from backup the twitter client will not work anymore.

Definitely wise to advise caution, but I had no problem restoring contacts from a backup made immediately before re-flashing - just took a while for them to get 're-indexed' and appear in the contacts application.
