Hi guys again! Long time! Finally made it to buy an N9. Here in Argentina most of the models on sale where from carrier, Personal and Claro. This one I got is from Claro

Version PR1.1 (20.2011.40-4.406.6_PR_406)

I'm seeing some guides and began to think that maybe it's possible to reflash to go to developer mode?

Since this is a carrier branded device (judging by 406) and it's also PR 1.1.. I believe it's possible to flash PR 1.2 or PR 1.3 global firmware without hacky certification workaround.

You also need N9 RepoMirror installed if you want to enable developer mode.

Congratulations! Still the absolute best User experience on mobile UI that I have ever used. If only the important apps and browser would still work ok. Maybe I need to dig up one of my N9's and try it on 2022.

First thing to do is check is state of battery and get on charge. Once it drops below a critical point you would have to use Harmattan flasher to get it back to life:

thanks! indeed, it's a carrier branded device. What do you mean "without hacky certification workaround"?

I'm getting quite confused...to use Meegram, Meefox and new things, must flash the N9 right? Flash it first and then install the repomirror?

But don't understand. The N9 charged and is on normally without any drop of battery that can say that is dead

Glad to hear that, a lot of N9 have been left in storage for too long now as OEM batteries dated ~ 2013
