Yes, Dell PC Suite is installed but is showing as disconnected. I have rebooted several times due to applying windows updates to my computer. Am I suppose to have my Streak in debug mode? Right now, it isn't. Its in fastboot mode with the white screen.

Thank you for helping me.
[Streak 5 Android Development] rts-kuruption:
No, don't need debug mode. It's a DLL issue, try running cmd.exe as administrator?
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Does anyone know after we perform the firmware update is it possible to still recieve the ota update when it comes out?

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
Ok I did everything I had to do on my US Dell Streak to get the update from StreakSmart. I reached step 14 but when the lights starting flashing there is a caption that states you need and Update.pkg on the sd card. The dell finishes flashing and reboots but my build still is 6601 no O2 splash screen. Nothing has changed do you thing for some reason the dell is not seeing the update.pkg file on the sd card?

1. Assuming you don't already have it, download the Android SDK. Unzip it and put it wherever you want. You won't be installing anything so don't worry; you just need the fastboot.exe sitting on your computer.

2. Install Dell PC Suite if you don't already have it.

3. Download the stock recovery ROM and the stock Dell ROM from the links provided at MoDaCo.

4. Rename the Dell ROM Update.pkg and move it to the root directory of the Streak's microSD card.

5. Put the recovery ROM in the C:\ directory on your computer.

6. Turn off the Streak. Hold down the camera button while pressing the power button to turn it back on.

7. Tap the "Fastboot" button that will appear in the top-right corner of the screen.

8. Wait for about 10 seconds (you'll see "Wait for USB Fastboot detect" in the bottom-left corner of the screen in the meantime) and connect the Streak to your computer.

9. When "Fastboot_Mode" appears on the Streak's screen, open a command prompt on your computer. In Windows, you can do this by typing cmd in the Start Menu's search bar and hitting Enter.

10. Navigate to the folder where fastboot.exe (from the Android SDK) is by using the cd command.

11. Once you're in the right place, type fastboot.exe -i 0x413c flash recovery c:\recovery.stock.img and hit Enter.

12. When you see "Download RECOVERY Done!" on the Streak, remove the back cover and pull out the battery.

13. Replace the battery and back cover. Hold the volume up and down buttons down while pressing the power button and choose option 2 from the menu that will appear.

14. Relax for a few minutes and wait for the Streak to reboot. You'll see the O2 splash screen because—drum roll—you've got the stock O2 ROM (build 4399) running on your Streak.
[Streak 5 Android Development] rnj79:
I'm using Win XP. How do I run as administrator? I can do it using Win 7 but not XP... Also, Dell PC Suite detects the Streak when not in fastboot mode but as soon as I load it in fastboot, it can't find it.

I found a different method but am now stuck at my cmd box saying "waiting for device..." I am trying to run the recovery flashing script.

What's the deal with people talking about PDAnet? I had that for my iPhone for wifi tethering. What does it do for Android?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Yup, you can still get OTA updates.
[Streak 5 Android Development] rts-kuruption:
Instead of flashing the Dell recovery ROM, flash Koush's custom ROM. Then name the the file Update.zip on the SDcard, and use Koush's recovery ROM to install it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
I could not find the link for Koush's custom rom. Can you help me with this? I tried the one on the first page but could not find the rom. Nevermind I found it.

I backed up my phone with the Dell backup software . Would that restore my phone to the way I had it before the 2.1 update

Sent from my Dell Streak
[Streak 5 Android Development] rts-kuruption:
AFAIK, there is no restore ROM for the AT&T Streak. You can, however, go back to the 1.6 UK version. Here's a URL for doing that: http://android.modaco.com/content/d...to-get-your-streak-back-to-factory-condition/
[Streak 5 Android Development] rnj79:
UPDATE: I am now on 2.1, YAY!!! I uninstalled Dell PC Suite and used PDAnet instead. I also removed the clockwork recovery. I got my Update.pkg from http://android.modaco.com/content-p...-2-1-update-21-devices-download-here/page/60/

It took me two days but better late then never!! Thank you to all who helped!
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Anyone who followed my guide should not have any problems getting 2.1 ;) good job guys.
[Streak 5 Android Development] borijess:
I went through all the steps above but my phone never got the UK 1.6 because i did not use the kustom 1.6. My question might be dumb but i need to ask. Do you think anything has change goinng through this process? I want to make sure because i am going to wait until the official 2.2 comes out. I want to make sure i did not screw something up.

[Streak 5 Android Development] cue_32:
Theres really no way to tell. If your Streak is working like before, best bet is that nothing was changed. But if you really must, I'd get a screenshot of someone's About Phone info under settings and compare all that info there, specifically Baseband, Kernel, OEM version and Build number.
[Streak 5 Android Development] MrMediaGuy:
I agree that you *can* still get OTA updates since applying 2.1 doesn't break anything related to the OTA functionality, but I think whether you *will* get OTA updates on a US device running UK Eclair is still an open question. Without updating build.prop, the OTA functionality will be looking for updates from O2, not AT&T -- and even if you change that parameter to the correct carrier I'm not sure that it would apply a US 2.2 update to a device running the UK 2.1 version. I just don't have enough familiarity with the OTA process to know what level of "checking" is performed against the carrier, OS version, baseband, and recovery image to know exactly what to expect.

But since we have essentially turned the US device into a UK device with these changes, I'm skeptical that the Froyo OTA update will apply seamlessly. That's why I keep hoping for a 1.6 US stock recovery in case we need to reflash to the US stock 1.6.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Devil-D:
Could anyone please help...

Well, i`ve tried this truly a million times, and it just doesn`t work, grrrrrr...

I really want to go at Android 2.1

I`ve already have the 2.1 file (pkg), and the recovery files.

-> Boot Streak in fastboot mode (hold camera button when turning on), press 'Fastboot Mode' button, wait 10 seconds then connect to your PC (must have Dell PC suite installed).

I`ve tried 5 sec, 6 sec, till 20 sec...... and nothing will do it!!

Could someone be so kind to help?

(I just bought in a store a new unlocked Dell Streak with Android 1.6. Dell PCSuite is installed on Windows 7 x64. If i connect the streak to the pc, the streak is seen so the drivers work... on every 6 usb ports)
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
I actually had a notification for an ota update to the official 2.1 update, downloaded that and fixed the build.prop. My baseband is still US.

Can anyone help me with this build.prop issue. The Amazon MP3 app shows everything in pounds instead of dollars and things like Google Earth are missing in the Market place. What exactly has to be changed in the build.prop file so that my US Streak can show apps and dollar amounts correctly while running the UK 2.1 firmware?
[Streak 5 Android Development] vagelis:
Still no worky for me, ideas?

Greetings all,

I have edited my build.prop and verified that it is persistent.

Also cleared the dalvik cache multiple times.

I still have android marketplace in not showing US products...

Any ideas, suggestions, or even build.prop files from working units would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance, and kindly :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] almostinsane:
I have the same problem. My market has US and British apps but missing a lot. I've edited my build.prop and cleared the cache as well.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Here's the screenshot.

My baseband is still US despite getting an O2 update, all i had to do was fix the build.prop and market is back to normal. I also received the sms of doom this morning, i called at&t tier 2 customer care and had them lift the imei ban from my dell streak. If what she said is true then i wouldn't have to worry about account suspensions and crap.

[Streak 5 Android Development] vagelis:

Installed already; so now do I still have to wait for 24hrs?

I guess I'll know soon :D

Have you been able to download the 'official' upgradefile?

Every time I go to do so from the upgrade OS option, it times out.

Thanks again ::)
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
I didn't have to wait 24 hours, i used root explorer to clear the contents of the dalvik cache and that did the trick. I was able to download the official update file using my t-mobile sim. For some reason if i use my at&t sim to download it, the download times out. Good luck.
[Streak 5 Android Development] vagelis:
Then I guess it still does not work for me...

I loaded the build.prop file, cleared the dalvik cache, rebooted, and I still cannot access something like say "SlingPlayer" ... bummer :(

Thank you for all your help...I'll have to play some more, to figure it out
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Just wait for a bit, you should be back to normal real soon.

[Streak 5 Android Development] vagelis:
It appears that it did take over 24 hours, but now I can see things like SlingPlayer...

Thank you once again... I cannot still see Google Earth though; can you see it in your marketplace, or is it Froyo-only?

Thank you all in advance :O
[Streak 5 Android Development] Greenarcher707:
Yes i can see Google Earth in my marketplace. Here's a tip. Use root explorer and delete all contents of your dalvik cache then reboot the phone. Should work, since that's what i did.

How to install build.prop ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] MrMediaGuy:
Here's what I did:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7715878&postcount=52

If you already have a "fixed" build.prop like the one posted by Greenarcher then all you have to do is start from the step where you root with Universal Androot.

The important thing is to be patient -- it *does* work, but could be 24-48 hours before everything is the way it should be. For me, I could see all the US-only apps in Market within about 24 hours, but I still had prices in UK pounds in the Amazon MP3 store for another day. Then that cleared up as well. Some say clearing the Dalvik cache (instructions in this thread as well for a couple of different ways to do that), but I think the jury is out on whether that definitely speeds up the process for everyone. Good luck!

- on which section I should put each setting?

- should it be separate APN with the internet? (i tried to combine it with APN internet, but then the internet doesn't work)

- how to connect mms APN to be used with mms program?

PS. This is old sim card, means the setting works on my Nokia E71 and the card mms feature has been activated..

Any helps are appreciated...

yes you need a seperate profile for internet and mms, make sure you enter the info in the mms fields (eg, mms port, mms proxy, mms protocol ect), and all you have to do to make sure other programs knows this is your mms profile, at the bottom of the screen it says apn type, just set that to mms :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoN_HD2:
Following a HR after developing a problem with Sense not loading I now have an annoying problem concerning the quicklinks on my home screen which I'm hoping someone can help me with.

I have my quicklinks set out in a 4x4 format with the first 2 rows of icons visible on my screen. Prior to the HR it was simply a case of swiping my finger in an upwards motion, this then removed the clock from the screen and the bottom two rows of icons slid into view ready for me to use.

Now, for some unknown reason, when I swipe my finger upwards, the first two rows of links are still visible, but the bottom two rows don't now move up. What happens is that I'm taken to another screen which is blank except for a notification bar that shows the current date and time. This is really annoying and means I can't now access the bottom two rows of icons.

After the HR I installed CHT 1.8.5 & editor, I had an earlier version installed prior to the HR. So I'm wondering if it's got anything to do with this. I've spent hours meticulously going through CHT settings and still can not correct this problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Problem sorted!

I went into CHT Editor and selected ''Restore Defaults''. This took my quicklinks to a 3x3 formation but when I swiped my finger upwards everything worked as it should. It was then just a case of re-selecting 4x4 formation and the issue was sorted.

I had issues going from this JH1 firmware back to JM5.

Odin would basically hang and you would end up with a bricked phone (with connect to pc screen) and had to flash back to JH1 to get the phone going again.

If you do happen to load this FW, and decide to go back to JM5, when you flash in odin, do not check the "Partition" box, and do not insert the PIT file. Insert the PDA/PHONE/CSC from JM5 as usual, then flash.

If you have the PIT + repartition selected, it doesnt work.... strange..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] picard2008:
JH1

I am running JH1 with One click lagfix 2.0. It is smooth and my GPS locking improved dramatically with the default settings (i.e. no change at all after flashed). Battery wise, it feels a bit worse but I can't be sure as I must admit I have been naughty and playing with the phone more due to it's improved response.

However, there were postings where others had indicated differently. So I guess it depends on what your are expecting.

However, I moved from the "out of the box" JF7 -> JG4 (by Kies) and then Odin the JH1. I had played with JH1 without rooted or lag fix first before I applied the one-click lagfix. The vanilla JF7 seems to be an improvement over JG4 and certainly over JF7.

Last but not least, I tried Launchpro (free version) with the JH1, it is not as good as the default TWlauncher.

My 2 cents.
