You're lucky you can even turn yours on. (Well not lucky but a step ahead of me). Mine bricked after 5 minutes of ownership. I cannot turn it on or charge after trying ever suggestion I can find online. This is with the out of the box OS 2007.
Hmm, that sounds really bad. I actually think I fixed mine - I removed the batter for about an hour - supposedly this drained the internal battery/memory - It seems to function normally now - You should try this, or if not, your warranty DEFINITELY covers your N800 if you bought it new.
Oddly enough this morning after it was sitting idle all night it did turn on, but all setting were erased. I used it for an hour, then shut it off and same problem. Returned it to the store, it worked after the 1 hour drive there. Shut it off, and it was dead again, haha. Went for the refund. Too bad, when it works it's the best portable web device I have used.
When I push the power button quickly (less than 2 secs) it will go to Device Mode: Lock Touch Screen and keys, Offline, Lock device or Switch Off. Click Switch off results to really off.
If I press my power button for a longer time (4 secs or more), the N800 immediately just shuts off.
hmmm, tomu bohuzel, vubec nerozumim:-D

I have the same problems with my N800 after upgrading.
I'm 100% sure it has something to do with the OS2008

There is something wrong with your N800.
I also flashed mine with OS2008.
When I push the power button quickly (less than 2 secs) it will go to Device Mode: Lock Touch Screen and keys, Offline, Lock device or Switch Off. Click Switch off results to really off.
If I press my power button for a longer time (4 secs or more), the N800 immediately just shuts off.
try reflashing again.
Hope this helps.
