QUOTE(calvinz @ May 27 2010, 10:40 PM) Step 4 Connect your phone to your computer using USB cable. Then press the power button to turn it off Step 5 Press and hold on the letter " U" key on your keyboard while powering up your phone. Still cant get the Step 5 correct. Please help ! Tried turning off from Step 4 then turning on again, press and hold on U key actually very simple, try this: 1) turn off ur n900 2) Press & hold on "U" on ur n900 keyboard and connect USB cable to ur n900 3) u'll see dim colour Nokia logo & usb logo on top right of the screen (No need to turn on n900). Now u are in flashing mode & u can let go ur finger on "U". Hope this helps.
