infinity reboot? explain situation? like? when it reboot

Someone did this in maemo-talk forum, not sure if it helps?
flasher-3.5 -F <bin-name> --flash-only cmt-mcusw -f -R

wat is your problem?

you use correct file? confirm?
ermmmmm...... what pass program you install?

maybe you should just wait for NSU update... lol

Did you try to flash normally without flashing the eMMC.

It's simple, easy and fast and doesn't matter if you have incompatible apps installed or rootfs space not enough.

You're flashing the global firmware right? Downloaded from tablet.nokia.dev?

are u flash using windows XP or Win 7 ?

ya... everything must use new one, emmc vanilla also got new. check all correct version. post all software version is better... haha

finally u doing it manually? haha..i still waiting from appsman

There're cases where FOTA causes reboot loop; Those early N900 owners will know, when they update to PR1.1 or PR1.1.1.

NSU is same like flasher, but it is windows based, Wizard based (click click click).

NSU can fail too, even flasher can fail, but flasher you can re-do again because you have all the files.
NSU, the files is downloaded and stored somewhere unknown to the user, once flash, the file is most probably deleted. I'm not sure if there is failure, NSU will ask you to re-flash again or not.

You will notice during NSU update, there is warning about not disconnecting the cable during the process... imagine power trip, etc.
Besides, when plugin to NSU, after it detects and ask you to update and you click YES, it will download the firmware which take sometime and it never say it is safe to remove the cable? It's not flashing yet, only downloading firmware....
So the whole process would take long time.

acat u sure u tried using the correct bin file?? whats ur n900 product code?? maybe installing the regional version might work better?

done~

came back from work 5:30 update pr1.2 via NSU. after 3 hours only 2.1mb downloaded, this NSU is so damn slow anybody updating via NSU? how's your speed?

then Nokia has cheat his customer. I do believe there did said after update it should be able to do video call. Hmm.. or maybe there is no 3g connection at my area (at this moment show 2.5g). If u was say it right then i need to consider to lego my N900 lol because i dont use internet plan for this phone

congratz!!! happily restore ur apps now lol..

hehe can u tell me how? is they any link for it?

still scare to touch ths step,scare will brick my device.

i hv question about update firmware via OTA and NSU.
yesterday i update firmware at app manager,after update complete my application still ther,
so i thnk is it update via OTA the application will still maintain,and NSU will delete all the application(like format)

so if i dnt use flasher software to format my device,can reinstall firmware via NSU?(coz this is much more easy for me)
