Flashing your pre-production N900s

What's NSU? Nokia Software Update(s)?

Re: Flashing your pre-production N900s
 

Yup.
Doesn't work well on Windows 7 at the moment.
Nokia will release another version that's compatible with Windows 7 at the end of the year.

Thought it's quite funny using Windows to flash a Linux :p

Re: Flashing your pre-production N900s
 

One does not have to use Windows if I interpret the last sentence here correctly, right?

I'd be upset if I'd have to, to say the least :)

I flashed a N800 and N810 with NSU on Windows 7 the other day with no problems. No clue about N900 though.

Ah, it will be interesting to see how they get the low level firmware images out to the 300 loaners. Flashing those images usually requires a bit more technical know-how. Not everyone who got a device at the summit knows how to flash a device from a command line.

He took it down because it had his IMEI in there.
I still have the image, could post it again but remove his IMEI, I would need to get permission from him first.

Found the pic.

The V2.2009.46-5 firmware just released this week (Week 46)
Could be on NSU for us to update in a few weeks.
