no special issues
that's why I'm sad

normally I kill all other my phones by overclocking etc.
but this time I was just using for a week then when I switched on in the morning it just get restart, then I put to charge and then tried again, then nothing

Are you running Windows 7?

I would recommend you try flashing from a PC running Windows XP.

one thing left to do..
try cold flashing from another PC, if you can't get it to cold flash and you are sure the battery is full, and that the usb port is not broken, sadly you will have to send it to nokia for repair/replacement.

just maybe you are flashing it the wrong way
when cold flashing you dont have to press "U" or anything, just plug the n900 when its off to your pc.
open up a terminal, cd to where you downloaded the combined image
unpack it
then run the command from the wiki, make sure you replace 2101 by the correct hardware revision, maybe thats why it failed..

please copy the output and post it here...

if it succeeded proceed by executing the next command from the wiki which is flashing nolo.

after that normally flash the rootfs and the emmc.

Nothing works
