Coming from 1.8 DJ steve might need a factory rom

I previously had the DJ steves streakdroid installed and for the life of me the install would not work even with factory reset. In case of this issue the best approach would be to use the QDL tool and factory restore it, boot it couple of times and then try the steps for installing the gingerstreak. I can tell you it would be worth your time installing this one
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
I'd have to disagree with you... the QDL tool is a pain if you compare the process to flashing the stock recovery.img and then flashing the stock update.pkg, and then that way, you are up to date with the ROM you choose to flash, not the one in the QDL tool which I don't even know what version is it's been so long since I used it
[Streak 5 Android Development] sturmavik:
Quick answer - read this thread from the beginning (which you are required to do before posting), count how many times the flashing light issue is mentioned, then be ashamed of yourself.
[Streak 5 Android Development] markdexter:
Then be ashamed of yourself? Can't believe I just read that, you pompous prick, get a life, so what if he hasn't read the thread, if you know the answer, instead of being a forum tough guy, help him out, thats what its for, its not like this is a busy forum!
[Streak 5 Android Development] partie:
You ****! I will find you...
[Streak 5 Android Development] eSZee:
Answer? I've found band aids and inconvenient work arounds, but what exactly is the solution?
[Streak 5 Android Development] angelerikz:
what beta are we going to test?
[Streak 5 Android Development] ste52653:
It gets to be a bit of a pain repeating yourself over and over. I think that's why people get pissed off wen others don't bother to read the thread. I know 70+ pages is a little bit much to read, but I'm pretty sure the answer was posted a couple pages in, maybe 5 at the most.

Either way - flash everything, don't miss a step and this wouldn't happen - the correct amss and dsp1 need to be flashed, then your flashing lights issue will be resolved.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bugmenotacc:
Personally, I think a lot of angst could be avoided if the first post was better maintained.

A list of known bugs and possible fixes, plus regular updates on progress would go a long way towards stopping the usual questions, if anything is to be taken from all the hubbub, it's that nobody wants to read through a forum thread to see if their question has been asked of bug has been reported.

Yes, people are suppost to, but they don't.
[Streak 5 Android Development] zsolti256:
Exactly , I have mentioned this before nobody gave a damn, only people bichin, How hard could it be to create and maintain a new thread for this rom, With FAQ , and Up to date info about it, or a fresh update.zip with all the tweaks!
[Streak 5 Android Development] :
Maintained would be great!

But squabbling and fighting in the threads is part of the reason why fards left. It's turning into a iphone vs. android type angst situation. WE ARE ON THE SAME TEAM!

Also....encourage people to use the "search option" above the thread...don't just gouge into people, it's pointless.
[Streak 5 Android Development] vanemburghj:
Glad to see none of you are reading any of this forum. Reason why 1st post is not maintained is developer left us due to dumb asses not reading the forum. So you are re-enforcing why our ONLY developer has left us hanging in the wind. Cannot say THANK YOU enough for being the lazy dumb asses you are. However won’t leave you up the creek without a paddle, if you look for [ROM] StreakDroid 2.3.3 Italian and INTERNATIONAL **UPDATE 04/10/11 REV 2, and (yes I know it is hard for 99% of you) follow the installation instructions you might just find yourself with a very stable Ginger Bread ROM.
[Streak 5 Android Development] trichard:
Yes.......!.....how ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] maxicet:
Simply edit file "init.streak.post_boot.sh", and add a row with "setprop gsm.version.baseband GAUSBxxxxx" where "xxxxx" is what u want...if the row already exists edit it

Funny, same thing JUST happened to me today. I haven't quite figured out what caused it either. Plugged into a power source won't wake the device and no notifications are sounded, though they are received. I ended up pulling the battery this time.

Streaking via GingerStreak 2.3.3 and XDA Premium!

Hey guys, I am trying to install this rom, I cant seem to get into the recovery mode. I tried using the ROM manager to reboot into recovery and it just keeps rebooting itself normally. I have flashed the latest recovery according to the app, so cant figure out the problem. even tried a factory reset and SD card reset. any suggestions? and yes, it is rooted.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
First of all uninstall ROM Manager... secondly look up the StreakMod thread and you have to flash that Streakmod recovery to your phone because Clockwork Mod doesn't play nice with the Streak... had you done some research you would know that... there is no app for the Streak that will take you to recovery... you have to boot into it manually
[Streak 5 Android Development] greekunit690:
tried this to realize i needed to flash the amss and all that good stuff with fastboot only to remember i updated to windows 7 and lost all my drivers etc. could someone point me in the right direction as to how to get all of it working again because i have tried everything and cant get it to work again. thanks a bunch!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] trichard:
Hey .... I just installed 2.4 ....over 2.3 without any delete partition ..... just install.... no issue right ?

I tested .... it WORK !

Root explorer no more crashes...... Good ROM !
[Streak 5 Android Development] marvin02:
No offense - but the problem is operator error.

Rom Manager does not play well with the Streak. ClockWork Mod does not play well with the Streak.

DO SOME RESEARCH.

The information you need is available.

Regarding GingerStreak there are multiple threads across multiple forums. You need to read EVERY POST in EVERY THREAD before you even consider trying GS. Remember GS is a BETA ROM. The reason these threads contain a lot of noise compared to information is because of users who don't read first. You are not ready to try a beta rom if you do not understand the basics of working with the Streak.

Streak basics here.

You may also some find some useful info in the links in my signature.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
I'll be honest with you, if you haven't taken the time to find the threads here in the forum that contain the links to the drivers, you have absolutely NO business installing this ROM or any other custom ROM.

Please understand I am NOT trying to be mean or condescending, but users such as yourself that refuse to look for the information they need clog up the threads with posts for requests of information that is useless to more experienced users...

There are dozens and dozens of threads dedicated to flashing and techniques and links and drivers so the mere fact you come here and ask to be pointed in the right direction shows you haven't take the time to educate yourself

Please understand
[Streak 5 Android Development] :
Google "Multi Recovery Flasher".....nice and easy.....all you have to do is put your phone in fastboot mode and select "streakmod recovery"...the program pushes the recovery to your phone. done.
[Streak 5 Android Development] greekunit690:
No no I do understand where you are coming from but I have been looking and trying for hours with no success I find a lot for xp and vista and they don't seem to work for 7 for me atleast
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
well my advice would be to install the AndroidSDK... not all of it, it will present you with options. All you need are the TOOLS, PLATFORM-TOOLS, and the GOOGLE USB DRIVERS

You have to look for the info to put the install PATH of your AndroidSDK in your environment variables of your computer also

Once you have done that, using adb and fastboot is a breeze, the information IS in the guides here in the forums, WITH their OWN threads
[Streak 5 Android Development] greekunit690:
Just looked in general forum...realized I had it set to latest first..set it to most important and it was the second one lol thanks for the help

I'm getting continuous FC's

i.e

The process -android.process.acore

-com.google.process.gapps

-android.process.media...

has stopped unexpectedly.

I have flashed the amss&dsp and ROM accordingly.

What should I do?
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
First of all you may wanna consider reading quite a bit and searching for the latest release. Secondly, amongst some of that reading you need to do you will get the understanding that not all Streaks are created equal... I for one ended up going back to StreakDroid 1.9.0 because nothing else was stable on my particular device, no matter what I flashed or what I installed, I had issues, but to answer your question, flash a few more times, and make sure to factory reset, if that doesn't help, then you may have to do as I have done
[Streak 5 Android Development] dave2:
Cheers. I just forgot to factory reset it in Dell's Recovery Menu and not in StreakMod's. :rolleyes: All up and running now.

I am having trouble installing the rom:

I use ClockworkMod Reovery v2.5.0.1

after kernel:Installing - I get the follow error:

assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img","boot")

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip

Installation aborted.

E:Can't Find MISC:

I have tried reset the dell memory setting and wipe everything in ClockworkMod still no luck. Anyone any idea??

Thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] cdzo72:
3 things I would suggest, reformat SD card, download the ROM again and flash StreakMod instead of Clockwork Mod
[Streak 5 Android Development] bokingwen:
I flashed to StreakMod and get the same error, my Streak 5 is not booting at all now because there is nothing on it. I have also redownload the file.

How can I format the SD card without booting with the Streak 5? I put the SD card into my EVO and format it but some directories get installed back on the SD from my EVO.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Why don't u try flashing the new 2.4 version of gingerbread. Try maxicet version 1.0.

Sent from the SuperStreak! ;-)

Thanks, downloaded Maxicet and works perfectly. I spend almost the entire day trying to get StreakDroid to work but no luck.

Flash ROM, amss and dsp without USB Cable

Anyone,

Is it possible to flash the AMSS and DSP without the USB cable. My Dell Streak USB port is broken and it is not possible to connect to my PC.

Thank you.

[Streak 5 Android Development] :
you can flash stock illegal 406 rom

Hi Kolteabhiman,

I have downloaded the 406 ROM, Streak_406_19940_14.zip from the streakdroid ftp. After installing this rom, can i just flash the Streakdroid 2.3 without flashing amss and the dsp to my Dell Streak 5?

Thanks,

[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
here's a quick update.zip to test a kernel and some minor tweaks.

I thought this kernel may help fix the suspend, but its not quite there,

power usage does seem a load lower though in testing today. (still needs the wake_lock hack)

I've also swapped a couple of the gfx libs, renamed the gps and sensors to .qsd8k (some people only get sensors working if its that, AWD included) not sure why some and not others.

Having duplicates in that folder isn't going to matter any :D

if this kernel isn't to your liking, then copy the boot.img from the original zip to this one and flash this zip again.

Or extract it to the sdcard and flash with flash_image ;)

Also bear in mind this is *development* so may break things etc etc.. I havent tested it over night yet

I did notice that it rebooted on finished boot after flashing, throwing up lots of errors, this only happened the first time though
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
browser I think is an issue with our old friend libskia. (of course it could be the webkit code)

I cant get a decent working version, as soon as I swap the binaries the streak refuses to boot, :confused:
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
and finally tonight, here's a very very experimental kernel.

suspend still isn't working, but mic did just !

(didn't on 2nd boot, did on 4th, I think I've got a wee ghostie that counts)

Using lots of "Stuff" such as Gpios from 72xx and some different pm memory controllers to test.

EXPERIMENTAL.

extract to boot.img and throw it in the last zip, or flash with

flash_image boot boot.img

If i use call function via bluetooth. The calls cluters, sometime voice cums and sometimes goes. Is it known issue
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
"sometime voice cums " thats pretty nasty!:eek:
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Ok here is what going on with my Netflix. I goes into the home section and the loading circle on the right keeps spinning and nothing works home,back,menu buttond dont work. Swipe pad does not work, basically its frozen but the circle keeps spinning or just freezes. Then I have to take battery out or phone reboots by itself. :mad:
[Streak 5 Android Development] be_vigilant:
Its not just you. I get this crash with 2 different apps but the exact same crash. If I download HD Wallpaper app from the market and load it, it locks up on load. None of the soft buttons work and the touchscreen ceases to function also. But the phone hasnt locked up as the screen will still rotate and I can see the battery charging on the notification panel at the top.

If I press on the beautiful widgets super clock to bring up the weather this causes the same input lockup. No soft buttons work and the touch screen doesnt.

To sort this out I have to hold the power button for 15 seconds to cause a soft-reboot. This is a fresh flash with a FULL factory reset. My browser works perfectly though not one crash and I have used it a lot over the past couple of days.

Not a problem really as this is a beta and there are more important bugs to sort out first. :rolleyes:
[Streak 5 Android Development] Edrill:
Anyone else having issues with data not working after flashing the update1.zip??

Edit: Nevermind, seems to be working fine after a couple of reboots.
[Streak 5 Android Development] be_vigilant:
No problems with data here.posting this using it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
that may be the etc/hosts, beautiful widgets does like to call up lots of crap when it loads, and the hosts blocks the adverts, if you look at the logs you can see it throwing a hissy fit.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Is there anyway to resolve this?
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
I have gotten this issue twice. Where I reboot my streak and when it boots back up none of my Widgets load.
[Streak 5 Android Development] be_vigilant:
Typical. As soon as I try it this morning the bug has gone and beautiful widgets weather is now loading OK. It crashed everytime yesterday. This morning I did flash the new update experimentle kernel.

HD Wallpaper still locks all inputs up on load. But as I say this is a MINOR bug and not something to look into right now. I will still get the logs off see what I can see.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
I found a workaround for my Netflix issues. I use netq to playback my instant quene. Works great no more reboot issues with Netflix. You still have to have the Netflix app installed in order for net q to work.

I can't wait to try this out. Why oh why must my download speeds be so slow at work today (27 mins left to download ZIP).

Some one asked if you can nAndroid back and forth with this and a Froyo ROM. The answer is yes, but you would need to fastboot the appropriate AMSS also.

Is the phantom photo eating bug still present? Oh well, I should back up my SD anyway...
[Streak 5 Android Development] be_vigilant:
Flashed the amss and the new .zip and now my rotate doesnt work at all. I will have to start from scratch see what I messed up.

Trying a factory reset first see if its any apps I have installed that have done it

Same here ... I've sent a PM to fards and awaiting reply ...
[Streak 5 Android Development] nickshertzer:
Same here. Fresh install, wiped data, cache, dalvik. flashed AMSS and factory reset from Dell menu. Rotate does not appear to work.

Interesting note, playing with auto rotate settings of Go Launcher EX will force the launcher into portrait, while others (settings.apk, dialer, browser, etc) will stay in landscape.

Hey Fards,

Do we still need to flash the update u posted yesterday on top of the update essentials? Or just the update essentials with amss?
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Does the latest update fix the browser crash and Netflix crash?
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
dont use anything other than what I said in the first post,
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
for anyone having rotation issues can you delete the sensors.qsd8k and sensors.8x50 from the /system/lib/hw/ folder so that there is only the sensors.default.so in there please.

I've updated the instructions in the first post,

I'll put one complete zip together tomorrow to replace these, to simplyfy it.

my upload speed is horrendously bad at home.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ste52653:
I only had the sensors.8x50 and the default one, the sensors.8x50 I deleted using the included total commander (configured to use root functions everywhere) and then rebooted my Streak.

Success! Screen rotation works like a charm!
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Mine too and proximity sensor works. This is my preferred rom now not going back to 1.9.1. Thanks fards!
