[edit] All Systems

For Windows, Mac or Linux you can use flasher-3.5 which can be download from the tablets-dev page. This page contains all installation packages include documentation for using the flasher.

Note:

If http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/ does not work (for any reason including corrupted data and/or duplicate headers error message) use the following mirror:
http://skeiron.org/tablets-dev/
see link "Command line flasher binaries are available here" (on "Maemo 5 for Nokia N900" page).


[edit] Linux PC

  1. Download the Flasher for your device model: N900, N810, N800 or 770
  2. Download the latest firmware image for your device model: N900(For UK N900 Devices: Maemo 5 UK Firmware), N810 WiMAX Edition, N810, N800, or 770 (Hacker Editions: OS2007HE, OS2008HE)
  3. If you downloaded the .deb version of the Flasher, install it with: 
    sudo dpkg -i <flasher-package-name>
    If you are using 64-bit Linux, you'll need to force installation as follows:
    sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture <flasher-package-name>
  4. If you downloaded the .tar.gz version instead, you should untar it manually. The install instructions assume you have untarred it to the current directory.
