A pointer to people in different contry / with different carrier:

I am on Softbank Japan and this build messed up my APN settings, so I had no 3G data. If it is your case, you'll need to backup your working APN before flashing this rom (APN Backup and restore app from the market). These are the steps I followed:

1.- Delete /system/PreLoadNetworkSettings/aosdb.bin file

2.- Erase APNs

3.- Restart phone with volume down + up, Do a factory reset from Dell Menu

4.- Reinstall APNs with APN Backup app

I don't know whether an aosdb.bin file from a different build will work or not, it could be an alternative to APN Backup/Restore. I did try the aosdb.bin from DJ_Steve's release (which did work on my carrier) and the phone would freeze when going to APN settings menu.

Perhaps the format changed from 2.2 -> 2.3? try grabbing the latest out of 2.3.5 (GRJ90)
[Streak 5 Android Development] ste52653:
HotSPot?

Is it just me or is the Hotspot option missing? I can't remember if it was there before on Gingerstreak.

I've used the hotspot on the 2.2 roms and quite liked it when I needed it. Has it just changed location now in 2.3 or is it missing from this rom?

Cheers,

Working grrrreat now...didnt do the updateessential, should i or no?
[Streak 5 Android Development] maxicet:
What I'm doing wrong? I'm not able to boot this rom, always stuck on dell logo...I flashed amss, then beta1 zip then essential zip, I tried to factory reset and nothing....I also reflashed all files for three times...perhaps there's a correct sequence?
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Flash the beta zip first then the update essentials and last flash amss.
[Streak 5 Android Development] jitin02:
thoroughly recommend the following apps to go with this
from market
setdns
setcpu
getjar
market 313
droidiris
lgCamera (very tweakable 720p camcorder!)
Locales2
Appbrain Market
Fastweb install (works fully here)

fards sir,

are these apps still required ???
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
Rather than clutter the forum I've

EDITED the first post.

Theres a zip there.. If you already flashed the other ones, then you dont need this, unless you really are desperate, I deleted all the extra dell verification stuff I added to test the kernels, so it should boot a bit quicker.

I'll reiterate..

If YOU are flashing over 2.2 then FACTORY RESET

if you're flashing over an earlier 2.3 then clear Dalvik Cache at least. You may need to factory reset, but its unlikely, I tested it just and it works.

Woke up this morning and phone was powered off by itself.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Hey Fards,

Do I need to flash the amss again if I flash your complete update again?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lucifer4obg:
Flashin amss is done ONCE. amss is not a part of the rom, as I gather it is something like your PCs BIOS. So you need to flash it only ONCE ... or if you flash a nother version (older or different) of the rom.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
there was a bug in the essential update, that i copied across to the new zip, it would have caused your issue borjiless.

No you dont need to reflash teh amss again.

Theres now a zip with the full rom and a zip with the AMSS from before and a DSP
[Streak 5 Android Development] nickshertzer:
I was able to nAndroid successfully between SD2.3 and SS1.3(testing 4). I DID NOT need to change fard's AMSS engineering baseband when returning to Froyo.

SD2.3 has a slight video glitch that is particularly pronounced when themed with transparent notification pulldown. It chunks out the line draws when you pull down the shade fast. Everything else is working great. Thank you fards for the orientation trick. Interested in figuring out how to turn on google talk video. Not sure about the GB tv off animation yet either.

Have to work this morning, but looking forward to playing around with this more this afternoon. Everything is back to Star Wars for now. :cool:
[Streak 5 Android Development] vanemburghj:
Fards, et al, thank you again for all you do and have done. Downloading beta 2 and amss/dsp1 now. However just to let you know, am running beta 1 with UpdateEssential.zip, with sensor files you recommended be removed. Fixed rotation, browser and just watched 9 minutes of Netflix with zero issues, so just can't wait to get all the b2 goodness going as well:D
[Streak 5 Android Development] kidrock23:
Hi Fards, super ROM. No reboots or FCs. Thank you for the effort and hard work :).

I have enabled CRT animation, but its dead slow. Any pointers on why or should I disable it for now?

[Streak 5 Android Development] engrgener:
Fards, thanks for this excellent update. Its working like a charm on my streak. More power to you and your team!
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Fards great job rom is working great so far. Thank you for investing so much of your time to make us streakers so f**king happy. ;-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
how did you enable it? the only way I've seen it done is by editing the framework, which mostly has caused quite a lot of issues.
[Streak 5 Android Development] geo.samuel:
Hi FARDS (KING)

Thanks for all the time and energy you spent (and spending) on empowering streaks to its full glory....The rom is working flawless with me...However have checked in the about section that the baseband says unknown....now am wondering if it is wrong or I have to flash the baseband again?

Thanks Again
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
no that is correct
[Streak 5 Android Development] kidrock23:
I have modified the framework-res with the steps provided in another xda forum.

It has worked but its really very slow and doesnt seem to be worth the effort unless you can spin some of your magic.

[Streak 5 Android Development] ste52653:
I have reflashed amss.mbn and dsp1.mbn.

I flashed via Streakmod the GS2-3beta2 (over GS2-3beta1)

Wiped the Delvik Cache

From what I can tell every looks great, thanks Fards!!

except...

I still don't have the Hotspot for some reason :(

I installed a quick little "hotspot toggle" app from the market, and it does turn it on and off, so the hotspot function is available, just not available to be configured in settings it seems. Very odd.

Anyone have any ideas why it would be missing or how I could fix it?

Anyone notice when playing audio it seems to cutoff for a split second repeatedly.

[Streak 5 Android Development] geo.samuel:
Checked with Wired Headset, and BT headset as well audio seems to be working normal for me. Thought that the Volume+ might be causing the issue for you so tried with Volume+ enabled and disabled as well. Audio is working absolutely fine.

Checked on Power AMP and the Native player.

P.S. can you please check if you are able to run the USSD codes on the dialer without any issues eg. *123# it says no connection or MMI code entered is incorrect Thanks.
[Streak 5 Android Development] aaronv89:
I just checked I'm getting that same error too, so it's not just you.

Has anyone been having problems sending text messages? All of a sudden my phone just stopped sending texts i keep getting "message could not be sent" error. I'm using GoSMS
[Streak 5 Android Development] geo.samuel:
I am as well using go sms, and am able to send texts.....try to send text with the native messenger.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ste52653:
If your native messenger doesn't work then have a look at your AP Names, make sure it wasn't lost or the wrong one selected.

Reboot your phone or go to airplane mode and back again to re-register in the providers network.
[Streak 5 Android Development] aaronv89:
Hmm...didn't work. Good thing I made a nandroid of streakdroid. I'll have to deal with this problem later tonight, for now its back to froyo!
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
@ geo.samuel

wouldn't it be *#123# ?

not an expert on mmi codes (and I don't have payg) but I understood that *# was to check the status of something.

*on its on enables it

other than that I really really don't know sorry.

You could try a different phone.apk to check if its that, a quick google shows that its a fairly common issue.
[Streak 5 Android Development] aSquard:
So coming from StreakDroid 1.9.1 (When I've flashed AMSS before), I'm assuming I don't have to flash it again to go to 2.3, correct?

Fards and DJ_Steve - Well done Sir and many thanks. I haven't flashed this yet, but I will in the next hour or so. I'm honestly ecstatic from the comments and reviews that others have posted about how well this ROM runs.

See you all on the Gingerbread side!

Edit: This is SO SMOOTH. Install is VERY quick and painless. I didn't flash AMSS again. Calls work perfectly though my capacitive buttons keep flashing from time to time for no apparent reason. I love it - so far only one random reboot
[Streak 5 Android Development] vanemburghj:
Am loving this version so much have removed all my 1.9.1 files (install zip, UOT, Nandroid, all of it). Great job to all that made it happen!!!!!!!:D

[Streak 5 Android Development] maxicet:
If you flashed this theme file http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1244978 then this is the problem, the modified "settings.apk" isn't completly compatible with this rom...

Reflash rom zip over your actual system and you'll resolve
[Streak 5 Android Development] edmax:
Yup. Absolutely right. I tried the theme and some of the options will cause a crash to the system. I reflashed and the FC is gone.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nickshertzer:
Well, crap. Sounds like I need to update settings.apk. I thought i tested it thoroughly. Guess not. Sorry guys. I can try and work on this later today or at least pull /system/app/settings.apk from the zip.

In related news, flashing a modified froyo phone and contact apk (themed dialer, etc) also does not work with GB (constant fc). We will get it eventually though. Just need to start with GB phone and contact apk. (same with settings.apk I'm sure)

::edit::

Modified GB settings.apk to include custom ic_settings_*.png and updated ZIP in v01-1 Theme
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lucifer4obg:
Thank you guys, I'll be flashing over in a few minutes ...

How about honeycomb on dell streak 5...
[Streak 5 Android Development] vanemburghj:
Why? HC is for 7" screens and larger, would be very cramped on Streak 5" screen, has no cell phone support, you have to use VOIP, etc. So again why?:confused: Maybe Ice Cream, but not HC.

Someone Please Post some Pictures

Hello Everyone,

I know some you out there have the new StreakDroid 2.3 on your Streaks and I am tempted to do it today, but I would like to see how it looks compared to the Dell Streak Factory software. I am really anxious to do it today, so please some post some pictures.

Thanks,

Ken
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
Well updating to Gingerbread is not really about looks as much as it is performance. You can make it "look" however you like as far as themes and such.

The MAJOR advantages I'm seeing it since flashing it yesterday morning are battery endurance. I mean it is really really really good.

Performance wise, well yes it is snappy, but I get a hang up every now and then especially when I am in the app drawer (not using the pre-installed VTL Launcher, gotten very used to GO Launcher) and it hangs and I have to reboot... but that being said I have already cooked up a new theme in the UOT Kitchen and am really enjoying this build.

With the gps link provided by fards in the first post installed GPS locks for me here in Costa Rica are almost instant, within 10 seconds.

Haven't been outside the house to see if any cell phone performance has changed.

Definitely worth the changeover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
OK, this is a question for the fards and the other techies....

I see that the build.prop says 240 LCD density but that the density is actually at 160 on the phone, but at 180 I guess with the size of the dialpad when I have to put in my SIM pin. On that same note, my PHONE dialer is huge and all I see is the the bottom row (the astericks, the 0 and the # symbol) in the center and the voice dial icon to one side. Like if the LCD density were at 240 like it says in the build.prop

OK, now I have tried to modify the build.prop to say

#other edits

ro.sf.lcd_density=160

and have also tried all the way down to 100 and my screen density doesn't change when I reboot.

Sooooo, installed the free app from the market called LCD Density and it WILL changed the density using the "killall" setting when applying the change, but when you reboot it looses it's setting and I have to do it again. BUT, the dialer DOES NOT change it's resolution, large keys on bottom row I can see and the rest is invisible to me.

I got around that by using GO Contacts and using the built in dialer, but when I end the call it goes back to that funky dial pad.

It's not a deal breaker by any means, just an annoyance, so my question is, what's different about this build.prop file that it won't let me edit it and keep the resolution I want each boot?
[Streak 5 Android Development] krazman325:
Temporary Work-around

You might try these two apps to help with both of your problems until Fards gets a permanent fix:

Touchpal Dialer (free) - replacement dialer app with MANY enhancements including better UI, T9 lookup, large buttons (Like Ray Dialer on steroids)

On Call End (free) - lets you select the screen to return to following end-of-call. (I chose Home Screen)

[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
I fixed my issue a fresh install with a factory reset fixed the audio cutoff. Awesome rom Fards! Goodbye froyo! B-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
Thanks for the suggestion kraz, but as I said, the dialer is no big deal because I use the GO Contacts and Dialer along with GO Launcher, but I really wanna know if the deal with the build.prop mod to change the LCD Density is just a problem that I am personally having or is it a known bug?

Edit: I completely forgot to mention two things:

1: In SetCPU the highest value is 998 to the end of the bar...

2: In Application I have several applications under the "On SD card" tab BUT when I choose the app it says ""Move to SD card" on the bar, telling me it in theory is installed to internal memory and not on the SD, and that is bugging the hell out of me...

Once again, open for any suggestions
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
thanks for the donations guys,

its not asked for but at this exact second in time very very much appreciated !

no-one has one of these http://www.go-one.de/html/cms/?slides=go-one-evolution&lang=en

spare do they ;)

or knows anyone in a company that would like to sponsor me one (or use for advertising)!

ah well, it was worth a try :p

my velomobile is dying rapidly..
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
the LCD density is 160

the line is build.prop has a # in front of it, that means its commented out. it doesn't work.

it was there because I get people still asking how to change it to 240 (god knows why, its a tablet not a toyphone :p )

so it was easier to tell them to delete that #

I've had some serious issues with modding themes on this build, that sound like the issues you're getting when playing with UOT.

Are you having those issues on unedited framework?

I'd recommend manually editing the framework .
[Streak 5 Android Development] rsalib:
I usually like tinkering with a stock build instead of using the custom roms because of all the bugs I would have to deal with. But as a long time reader of this section I really enjoy your contributions.

The beta2 version of your rom is pretty amazing. I'm pretty excited to eventually transition over completely once you get it done where you can call it a final release.

Thanks again for your efforts.

[Streak 5 Android Development] Not Relevant:
I've been following this thread excitedly but with all the quick development I'm finding it hard to keep track of what does and doesn't work in this ROM. Can anyone summarize known problems in beta-2 for those of us who haven't tried it yet?

Also: thanks for the hard work Fards!
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
OK, so I went into the build.prop before I saw your post and rechecked my edits and didn't work.

SO, I took your .zip and unpacked it. Removed the gps.conf file and replaced it with the one for Costa Rica where I am at. Replaced the build.prop file with the one I edited to say 160. I also added the /data/app folder with the boot animation from nick.shertzers GB theme that I like so much, which he got from somewhere else but I can't recall exactly at the moment. Then I replaced the framework.res.apk file with the one from the .zip that I cooked from the kitchen. I also modified the /system/app folder and removed the vtl.launcher and replaced it with GO Launcher EX, added other GO apps and several other apps that I wanted to be installed right off the bat. Zipped that puppy back up, and flashed it over my initial install and all seems well. The changes I made in the kitchen are all there.

The ONLY thing that I haven't seen change is my ability to set my cpu over 998, that's still the end of the bar for me.

PS: You the man fards, the work y'all have done is incredible and you deserve every penny and more. Few more days and I'll be shooting some more your way!!!

I'm being patient because I also have my Streak 7 that I'm playing with and got my fingers crossed that the wifi update that's gonna be released will make life much easier for our man DJ.

Hope someone can help me out with the SetCPU deal!!!

Oh fards, I almost forgot to mention again... any idea why in the application manager it says there are apps on the SD?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Not Relevant:
Says in OP, no overclock yet. Presumably due to using leaked kernel binary rather than custom compiled kernel.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
Hey Not Relevant, thanks for chiming in and helping me clear this up.

I took that into account BUT in post #21 fards mentions overclocking so that may be why I am a little confused about it...
[Streak 5 Android Development] Not Relevant:
No problem. Yeah - I think the earlier posts about overclocking are now not accurate: Fards' original kernel built from source he's modified supported overclock but the kernel in beta 2 is a (Chinese? binary?) leaked alpha kernel. (I think! It's tricky to keep track with everything changing pretty quickly)
