I managed this once or twice by pressing and holding the home key while booting, but as soon as I release the home key, it leaves usb mode. And then if you press other keys like zoom, plus, minus, power shortly, still while holding the home key, you can relase all of them an it stays in usb mode forever. > so if I do a mistake, I can take the battery out if a reset is needed > quickly: bad idea : powering off the device while it's writting the flash "might" be a good way to brick it ... > After the flashing is 100%, switch off the device by knocking the > battery out.

Re: [maemo-developers] flasher (Linux) doesn't find device
If you want to set the device only to rd-mode, you don't need to flash, you can just type (you need to do the same thing though as described above): ./flasher --enable-rd-mode Karoliina, i scrawled on maemo.org to find out information regarding the R&D mode and the differences between R&D / Production mode. Except here: http://maemo.org/platform/docs/howtos/ howto_use_flasher_rootfs.html , i couldn't find informations about this. Any clue?

RE: [maemo-developers] flasher (Linux) doesn't find device
Hello, Yes, always start flashing by first turning off the device. Then you connect the usb cable, start flasher with parameters like (whatever you prefer), my usual parameters are: ./flasher -F -f --enable-rd-mode --enable-usb-host-mode --set-rd-flags=serial-console and only after that you switch the device on with the power button. I have also found a good way (actually it was not invented by me though) with this by having the battery cover open, so if I do a mistake, I can take the battery out if a reset is needed quickly: If the battery cover is open and you hit/knock the device gently from the front side with something soft (e.g. with your hand), the battery drops (to your hand, if you have it waiting on the bottom of the device). After the flashing is 100%, switch off the device by knocking the battery out. Then put the battery back and start the device. If you flash the developer rootimage, be sure that you have the product rootimage nearby, so you can put it back afterwards. If you want to set the device only to rd-mode, you don't need to flash, you can just type (you need to do the same thing though as described above): ./flasher --enable-rd-mode Best Regards, Karoliina >> I cannot get the flasher find the device.

Found the problem. The device has to be switched off when being plugged in but then has to be _switched on_. It will display the Nokia logo and a USB connection icon but will not boot.
