[Streak 5 General] hunderteins:
I'm still using my 5treak day to day. Sometimes I patch up ssl or other bugs I find anoying. I installed a big micro-sd into it, so I needed the exfat filesystem in the kernel. But I found my crosscompiler on a backup-dvd. So it was easy to integrate. I've never found out, why the camera was not working with > 2.3.7. But it does not matter now. Reading rss-feeds, youtube, a little bit websurfing and other applications are still possible.
[Streak 5 General] Gill Android:
Oh so you are the guy which everyone is wondering who is using the 2.x android during Google's monthly report on Android versions used. Haha just joking buddy
[Streak 5 General] sisarka:
good
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Im doubting thats going to be much use as it would take more time than worth to try sort it out
[Streak 5 General] Adi Shakthi:
Any how bro....

If any one wants ....100% am ready to give away... till end of February.....

Else my 1st new baby is going to play with that ......:D

On March.......:D

Love u streakers
[Streak 5 General] xbutchx:
Well guys...I think my original offer might be a no-go. For whatever reason, my phone is stuck in a "factory reset" loop and I can't get into fastboot mode. I'm able to get into the recovery menu, but it doesn't do anything after pressing Option 2...just a plain black screen.

After reading some forums, I tied swapping out the internal sd, but it hasn't responded to the new card, still stuck on the "factory reset" loop...so I think it might be bricked.

I am going to try QDL tool to see what comes of it, but as you can see from my signature....I've officially retired my trusty S5 and ordered the Optimus G.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
About 120ish as going back to the 170 estimate as butch has a non working streak currently. If people can come up with a screak with broken screen and we can pay for replacement screen (bout 30 quid last i checked) then we are about 25 away
[Streak 5 General] DJ-VAN:
Hey djsteve- I mentioned it before but dunno if it helps: if you use a pay per download filehost like bitshare or rapidgator they pay you to host files with them. Also you could use blogger with a custom domain the cms is similar to wordpress. Essentially all you would have to pay for is the domain. There's also link referrals that you could uses if you planned on hosting files with multiple sites like linkbucks.

Its really how warez/movie sites make money but it would be completely legit for you.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
I disagree with paid hosting sites like that their all dodgy in my eyes
[Streak 5 General] xbutchx:
Great news guys....QDL Tool has awaken my mighty streak and it is now rocking Android 2.2 with Baseband 00

My offer is back on the table
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
ahh gotta love qdl lol :)
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
about 100 euros or so
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
i think i can manage that lol would be helpful to have 2 people working on things anyway
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
i sure i can do it at least a few times as i have to work round my work too :)
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:

Hey !

just donated another $10.

I'd really like to see ICS on my streak 5 ! :)

Thank you !

[Streak 5 General] xbutchx:
Going to get a shipping estimate done today. Depending on how much it cost to ship, I may let it go a little cheaper than originally offered.

I'll keep everyone posted.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Only about 20 left now folkd
[Streak 5 General] fabi485:
Hi

I donated another $10...

I would really like to see ICS/JB on my Streak 5.
[Streak 5 General] preet7:
Donated 10 bucks. Only another 15 to 20 usd to go .....
[Streak 5 General] Adi Shakthi:
Where is kibuka.....and Manni..... they are seniors they can if they want....including nop & Toni bro.....(Toni is king of ICS for ds5)

:thumbup:
[Streak 5 General] Vennesch:
Kibuuka hasn't been here for months, Streak defect. Manii does not use his Streak anymore. Who is Toni? And what are you trying to say or ask with this post?

ps. Is the full amount already in? Is the shipping been done?
[Streak 5 General] vn33:
I have a used Streak which I'll be happy to donate to the cause and if someone willing to share some of the shipping cost (if it's too much). Otherwise, if under $10, I will cover the shipping cost myself. I'll be sending it from Canada.

My Streak is still in working condition, including the LCD, however, the capacitive buttons (Home/Back/Menu) doesn't work anymore. I have to use a soft button program. The reason was I left it in the rain, but I guess the Otterbox salvage it some dignity. Also, the battery life is coming to an end and I can barely have a full day out of it I'll even include 3 charge cable and the Otterbox.

Let me know if you want to take up this offer.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
i should be getting a streak shortly due to a kind uk soul, but will probably need to replace a couple of parts as the screen currently doesnt work, but i should be back devving soon as i have the backup option of xbutchx kind donation :) will get back to you lot folks
[Streak 5 General] vampirexhunter:
Hey DJ_Steve,

Really glad that your back in the Dell Streak 5 scene.

I was actually curious about something, and hopping you'd have the answer to this.

I recently noticed that the HTC Desire is very similar to the Dell Streak 5 in terms of HW.

Qualcomm QSD8250 Snapdragon

Adreno 200

800x480 Resolution

Would there be a possibility to port over their roms to work on the DS5?

Thanks~
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
I did some of that in previous stint with the ds5 but its not as easy as it seems since dells odm for the streak (qisda) has done some less than standard mods with it that make direct ports hard
[Streak 5 General] xbutchx:
If you don't need it I'll probably hold on to it to help out with testing.

If a dev does need a working streak, I'm willing to help out the cause since I know nothing about devving, but I can help test where possible.
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
How's this "topic" going? How can we help the development process? Any particular "protocol" you will be following? I am more than willing to contribute with some help. Not a "ROM developer" myself, but I have some programming experience. Is there like a "canonical" "tutorial" or ROM porting?
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
not really any protocol to follow lol, theirs probably some basic tutorials somewhere but tey will be aimed at more 'normal' devices which sadly the streak is not (dell and qisda made sure of that) i can help try to teach people a bit if they have basic programming (c/c++ and java ideally) as id love the help rather than trying to do it all on me own which i dont have the time for as much now, only problem i can forsee will be getting the os itself built as i no longer have a dedicated build server nor can i afford the monthly cost to get one again so ill be building on my laptop which isnt the best of specs really
[Streak 5 General] Crinos512:
Heya Dj_Steve, how are you thinking to proceed? ...Contributing to an existing rom effort, or releasing your own?
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
ill probably start by basing off current source but may not keep that way
[Streak 5 General] Vennesch:
ah finally; Streakdroid 3.0 ;).
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
Have we reached enough funding for the rom already?
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
even better if it is a JB or at least ICS :D
[Streak 5 General] pirate21:
If is JB Rom I suggest use it:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1934000

[13-NOV-2012][ROM][JB][4.1.2] PACman HD2 v1.2a [PA/AOKP/CM10][NativeSD][WIP].

It's almost full working in HD2 and have very few bug(Only Adobe flashplayer and Wechat Voice Calling not work).
[Streak 5 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
I would think it more likely that he uses a Streak 7 ICS or JB ROM as a base.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
More likely ill use something from hd2 or desire as the streak7 is a totally diff hardware being that its tegra 2
[Streak 5 General] sinan33:
Just an opinion;

Acer Liquid E has almost same hardware with DS5 and the Rom developers of Liquid met the same camera issue,than they solve the problem;

maybe their solution can be useful for us?
[Streak 5 General] nom051205:
Desire better than hd2 and nexus one :D
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Nowt wrong with nexus one. One of the better phones ive had
[Streak 5 General] Crinos512:
... one more thing.

@DJ_Steve: Can I make a request up front? please use the streak5dm partition layout (as devised by TheManii) for your ICS or JB Rom.

MTP Layout [streak5dm]

This will allow for the extra room taken up by Google Now, et. al.

It's good to have you back!

:D
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Itll take me a bit to get caught up on the recent changes on the s5 unless someone can give me a quick catchup lol
[Streak 5 General] Crinos512:
There's been quite a bit of disscussion on "optimization" recently, the big names to look for in the topics are (in no particular order):

_n0p_

TheManii

kibuuka

hunderteins

... I'm sure there ate others but these come to mind first.

Topics I found helpful: :good:

[Recovery]Clockwork Mod 6.0.1.2

Proposal to set dalvik-vm optimizing all code

[PATCH] bfq and sio scheduler

[ZIP][GApps]Gapps package for GB/ICS (Actually has GApps for HC and JB as well)

[ROM][Early pre-alpha] AOSP ICS 4.0.4_r2.1 for DS5.
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
lol ok, ill be hanging about on the irc chan a bit more now too
[Streak 5 General] nom051205:
Plus Texasice github (evervolv team), he hack IMM76L libsurface_flinger for smoother ui (gralloc, genlock, egl ). It seems like ics dev for nexus one, hd2, desire, supersonic use this hack. I always have problem port newer ics version from those devices (if use their libandroid_runtime.so), the rom boot up but no function on the screen / touchscreen, the logcat show something like bad touch input method.
[Streak 5 General] Vennesch:
Plus [STOPPED] [DEV] CAMERA AND ICS maybe you do not have to start from scratch, do not have the expertise to help you decide.
[Streak 5 General] Vennesch:
nice to see that [STOPPED] is removed now :D
[Streak 5 General] sinan33:

[Streak 5 General] jitin02:
O dj is Bak.

Lol sorry been away from here as I have given my streak to a friend and myself moved to note 2

But i think have to recall my streak :)
[Streak 5 General] Johny1fin:
I have also been away for a while, loving my Note 1 with JB 4.2.1 as per yesterday.

Steve, I have a fully working streak 5 with dock which I was going to sell but can lend you for 3 months or so if postage is paid and comes back with new OS. Or you could sell it on and split proceeds etc. I am in UK.

Maybe you could utilise an additional development S5 with dock?
[Streak 5 General] Gill Android:
Hope....

We can hope for Jelly Bean or atleast ICS on our Streaks before Google releases Key Lime Pie :good:
[Streak 5 General] Vennesch:
How far is the process? Streak arrived? Do we get ICS or JB for Christmass?:laugh:
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
Still no news from DjSteve... :(
[Streak 5 General] ammujee:
Seems DJ gonna surprise us with IceStreak very soon after holidays.
[Streak 5 General] johnnyPPK:
com'on, I really don't think anyone can create a functional rom in such a short period of time (it's like a week since he got his new used streak?).
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
Well, if only by comparison, n0p posts around here fairly often; and I guess direct user feedback is an important part of the bug tracking and fixing process... I'm not saying he has not started, but... Were you not expecting some more activity on this thread?
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Havent even got streak yet person keeps forgetting to post it and its a holiday over here and im still trying sort out xmas stuff so no chance ill have nething before new year. I get irritated with the impatient people on here thats why i stopped visting previous
[Streak 5 General] Troute:
The world is full of "I want it now!" types.
[Streak 5 General] deysmacro:
heh... pressuring is the reason why dell stop doing androids... and stop doing smart phones in the process as well..
[Streak 5 General] rebski:
Yes and I wish they would all just STFU.

If I am sick of reading their whiney demands just imagine how DJ_Steve must feel.
[Streak 5 General] Crinos512:
Could not agree more. I've seen at least one other developer, fards, who bailed out for the same reasons.

How about this: If you want a status update, tie the request to a donation... otherwise set back and let the man work in peace. :cool:
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
I did donate. Actually I started a thread long ago about this idea of collectively funding an ICS for our devices.

I dont know what you guys are up to, but if asking about how much progress has been made seems rude to you, you can very much foff.

:)
[Streak 5 General] Crinos512:
Well, I am sincerely sorry if I pushed your button europeancity.

I had not intended to call anyone out, but I have seen many a developer donate their time and effort for free (As DJ_Steve has done from the early days of the Streak.) ...only to leave when they were taken for granted.

DJ_Steve has a distinguished history developing for this device. (Look here for details)

I personally think he's as good as his word, but realize that he does not NEED us as much as we need him.

I'll go foff now.
[Streak 5 General] hunderteins:
that is one problem with this donation buisiness: People think for 10 bugs they are entitled to nag. I've even seen a "thank you" for a nagging post. They are really useful and constructive.

n0p is no reference. He is very engaged and allways around for feedback. You don't know how good it is to have someone like him. I hope his family and job keep giving him the time.

And btw: Happy x-mas

[Streak 5 General] mdotph:
Awesomeee thanks dj:)
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
need some suggestions about what people want looking at first on this prealpha ics as id rather get that working better before i move up
[Streak 5 General] europeancity:
I use my streaks for opencv experiments and mini tablets at home more than as actual phones, so to me at least the camera is more important than the radio. From what I read on other threads, it looks like some other devices have the same camera, so it might be useful elsewhere and/or bring synergies with other devs.

Bonus would be lowering the bar as much as possible for newbies like myself to be able to contribute, by scripting all of the repo cloning etc tasks.

Thanks!
[Streak 5 General] preet7:
I would like to use it as a :

- Dedicated wifi Spotify Player.

- Google Hangouts Video Caller

- XBMC media centre

Sergei has full source tarball for my build, contact him, this could speed up things a bit. Alternatively - pm me ftp login details - will upload it asap (warning - it's more than 9 gigs in size iirc)
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
Ill have to try setup a ftp. Dont have and dedi servers at min so would probly need upload to my home connection which is painfully slow lol
[Streak 5 General] contactsonia:
I have dedicated servers. Let me know if I can be any help :)
[Streak 5 General] kibuuka:
erm, got better solution - got several vms running on my box atm - will start proftpd on one of them. will pm you login credentials soon
[Streak 5 General] Lexmazter:
Will this project be of any use for future development?

As i'm currently working almost alone on this, i thought i should point this so out here...

Also, glad to see DJ Steve back, i was not a forum member when i first heard and used his ROM's :) (Streak is my first Android phone)
[Streak 5 General] DJ_Steve:
It may be. I need to get some form of dev system setup somehow again as i dont think my laptop will be able to do a full android compile. Joy more cash i dont have i need ta spend lol newer kernel will likely be useful though
[Streak 5 General] kibuuka:
about usefullness - no doubt it going to be used when we manage to integrate all missing 8250-related code in 3.4.

suggested roadmap: 1. move all code needed into tree 2. make it compile 3. make it boot 4. check for regressions 5. use it as main kernel for ics/jb :)

and you're not alone :) co'd local copy of your project tree, currently messing with it (separate drivers for austin is bad idea, imo. currently trying to integrate all drivers streak needs to the base drivers section )
[Streak 5 General] Lexmazter:
That's also the roadmap i inteded to take, so, all in all, i don't have too much time to move all the drivers, i moved the drivers needed in my *opinion*.

--

Also, feel free to commit to the source, i will accept the commits, so they can be reverted and we can all contribute to the same source.

--

As for the austin thingy, i moved the austin drivers as they seemed an imediate necessity, other drivers an be moved at a later time, for now i was focusing on compiler errors, to get it compiled and to start testing it, as you said, to make it boot.

Any other improvements can come after this.
[Streak 5 General] rl3mailcom:
where do we stand

so any more progress on the Streak ICS project?
[Streak 5 General] Lexmazter:
Well, personally i still work on the kernel, not a big deal for now as it still has compile errors :)
[Streak 5 General] ivantastic:

If you guys can point me to your kernel, your proprietary files (all the files in /system ) your boot.img, and all the info you got on your device I can start looking.
[Streak 5 General] kibuuka:
Which one? Standard is at opensource.dell.com, phoenix is hosted at github, also (and you aware of it) there's(re) (a) project(s) aimed at porting austin/toucan board definitions/device definitions/drivers to recent caf kernel.

Um, btw, I've just managed to successfully compile another cadaver :D

It's lenovo lepad 2005's ics kernel (basically it's msm-3.0.8 with minor pathing and sort of updated drivers for streak - touchscreen, pmic8058 and ov5642 camera module) with qsd8x50 related stuff taken from phoenix and numerous other kernels. No idea what's broken as of yet, trying to compile caf's ics along with this kernel at the moment.
[Streak 5 General] giveen:
I plan on starting with n0p's kernel. I am trying to talk to the dev of the venue pro as he has a cm9 port nearly completed and his info will greatly accelerate our work.

Spent this morning researching, stripping apart images, downloading kernels and messaging various dev's.
