[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdzo72:
Ok fellas, the title pretty much says it all, I had a bricked Streak and was able to revive it by using the latest QDL tool. I was able to use the ZaRoot tool to root my Streak. TO get it to synchronize I downloaded and installed the latest files from Nero. Now when I connect the phone during the fastboot method, it was coming up and saying Android ADB Interface and I tried many times with that self installed driver. Then I went into device manager and changed the driver to say Android Bootloader Interface and try once again with no luck. I have used both methods of flashing, command prompt and by double clicking the .bat file in the folders. I mention again, I have used both Streakmod and Clockwork images and neither has done anything for me. I have also used 3 different computers, two of them running W7 ultimate x64 and another using W7 Home Premium 32 bit, same results....

I am at my wits end here and dunno what else to try. I have used several .img files for both Streakmod and Clockwork with same results also...

UPDATE!"!!!

Ok guys, so at my wits end like I just stated I had an OLD HP laptop with Windows XP on it (old faithful) XP and I fired it off to see what would happen. Well at first all was the same so I was pretty disappointed. Then I decided to come back to the forum and double check to see if there were any special drivers for XP, in doing so I had to disconnect the Streak's USB and reconnect an external wifi because the laptop's wifi card is bad... so I started at Clockword posts and found nothing but decide to try to flash again, well I tried to execute the .bat file and it just flashed on screen... then I tried using the command prompt window and when I typed in the first command to flash I saw "waiting for device" and realized I had forgotten to plug the Streak back in, WELLLLLLLLLLLL much to my content, when I plugged the Streak back in the laptop began to push the Clockwork image to the Streak!!! WOWWWWWWWWWW I said to myself, finally I get to move a step forward. Well, I rebooted and the first thing I did was to try a nandroid backup but throughout a funny message kept popping back up "E: can't find MISC" thus not letting the nandroid backup complete (that is the same message that kept popping up when I had bricked my Streak). SOOOOOOO, I crossed my fingers and went back and tried the same thing to flash the Streakmod and when it went through I was beside myself with enjoyment!!!! So the first thing I again did was run a nandroid backup and this time it went through without a hitch with no E: can't find MISC" message and it booted up just fine!!!

Hope this helps someone else out. I am going to uninstall all drivers and programs from the other 3 computers to try and verify that it was a driver problem.

But I hope someone can tell me what this "E:can't find MISC" message means in Clockwork....

Any and all input is appreciated...

Forgot to mention, that when I flash using the .bat file the command prompt window flashes up on my laptop screen for a brief moment but not for long enough for me to see what it says... which leads me to believe I have a driver problem, but how can that be if I am seeing "Fastboot_Mode" on the Streak???
