Nokia OST stands for Nokia Online Service Tool. This tool is Nokia’s official software that you can use to flash stock firmware to your Nokia Devices. Moreover, this software is used also by the FIH factory and the Nokia Care Services to revert the software in case of any issues faced by the customers.
Now, the OST requires the stock firm to be in the .nb0 format. You can install this OST software on devices like the Nokia 8, 9, 2, 3, 5, and Nokia 6. However, if the .mfl file is correctly formatted, you can also use this OST to flash the unpacked .nb0 firm. Besides, all the drivers are included with the OST.
You have to have an authorized username and password to flash the phones. Using a PC with an authorized Mac address can log in to the account. Besides, this OST also helps you to install the firmware update before the official OTA arrives on your device.
In this guide, we will tell you how to download the Nokia online service tools- 6.3.7 and 6.2.8. This will help you to seamlessly install stock firmware on your Nokia device.

Unfortunately even with the patched .exe the login fails every time (on all domains).
