I would like to know where to get this as well, 1.6 is not cutting it for me.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Troute:
The only thing with using the system updates in settings is that it checks with Dell, not o2. I'm not sure if this makes a difference.
[Streak 5 Android Development] MrMediaGuy:
If the speculation is correct that O2 are pushing this out without official sanction from Dell, then it's unlikely that the manual device update function in Settings will work, since that feature only checks the Dell update site (or the Zing staging site if you are running a beta build). I am guessing you'll get an OTA notification from O2 that an update is available. Seems unlikely to show up on Dell's update servers, although I could be wrong.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Amdathlonuk:
Hi,

I simply meant I flashed the 2.1 stickied on Modaco's main forum page.

It is not the latest version but it is bloody lovely.

My phone feels completely different, I feel justified in getting rid of the Nexus and Galaxy S now. :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
Not seen anything yet, but it doesn't mean they'll roll it out to everyone in one day..
[Streak 5 Android Development] zero.fx:
I still see nothing.... I want 2.1 arghhhhh :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] CodeCruiser:
Ladies and Gentlemen,

It looks like the wait is over. O2 has published the instructions on website on how to update your Streak.

O2 android 2.1 update is now avaliable:

http://www.o2.co.uk/dellStreakupdate

How are you all getting on with updating?

I purchased mine direct from Dell (unlocked) and it doesn't appear to be avaliable for me yet.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Douglas-1987:
dont know mate not got it yet and i'm with 02
[Streak 5 Android Development] samstables:
It's all a horrible ploy to keep us hanging on...

There's nothing yet although the O2 people on Twitter were saying they are trying to get it out as fast as possible...

"O2 @tmedhurst No, the update's not being pushed back - we do want to get it out ASAP. Just a couple of last things to get done first"

That was at about 5:15 and we heard nothing more!

The #dellstreak and O2 tweets have been pretty amusing today - but no closer to this update yet GRRR
[Streak 5 Android Development] djsalt:
thats odd, the website link i provided above is the routine that a collegue followed on her Streak (purchased through O2) and shes updated already.

Unfortunately I'm I purchased direct from Dell and can't get the update.

Have you turned your phones off and on again (ref: IT Crowd) then checked settings/system/about device
[Streak 5 Android Development] sottyc:
Not saying your wrong..but o2 replied to my tweet saying they will NOT be releasing today? When did that person receive the notification? I still have nothing..
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
see if you can get a build number from her?
[Streak 5 Android Development] mcfaddwa22:
think about buying one..

what do you guess think about the dell streak..i thought about buying one if my toshiba tg01 sells on ebay for the right price...what do you guess think is it worth buying?
[Streak 5 Android Development] nightworker-nn11:
The streak is well worth getting rid of ur tg01 jst wish i could get the offical update for it... running the unoffical one at the mo.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nightworker-nn11:
Does anyone else get just a sitemap page when they click on the link?

Could that be cause i'm running the unoffical 2.1?
[Streak 5 Android Development] checkbox111:
errrrrrmmm

eeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmmm

In the source code it says 'Coming Soon/Dell Streak Update'.

'Coming Soon' is a very subjective phrase isn't it :confused:
[Streak 5 Android Development] Fazziebear:
It seems to be a o2 thing, their entire site is like that unless you use their wap site

Fyi opera is the only browser that will see the sure as intended. Android and sky fire wouldn't

Cross your fingers everybody...
[Streak 5 Android Development] checkbox111:
You'll only get that if you turn your streak off then back on, then you will only get it IF the update is available for your handset.

The easiest way to check is to go settings > about phone > system updates
[Streak 5 Android Development] squalllion1uk:
Whats the point in making another thread when no one has confirmed what the build is?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Troute:
Yeah, come on you guys, less of this making new threads, what do you think this is? a forum??
[Streak 5 Android Development] zero.fx:
Me nither, I was wondering would it be a problem since I have a iphone 3gs sim in there. I bought the phone from cpw on launch as a sim free and just stuck in my Iphone 3gs contract sim on it.

Will that stop me from getting the update?

I do have another o2 pay & go sim card maybe i should try that
[Streak 5 Android Development] checkbox111:
Judging by twitter feeds and how reliable they are!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://twitter.com/O2/status/22872489259

Doesn't bother me one way or the other really as i'm quite happy with 1.6, just waiting to view feedback from others as to see if it's any better than the hacks that have been about
[Streak 5 Android Development] squalllion1uk:
The point was there is already two and adding his just means theres two "offical" threads and this adds zero new info if anyone has updated then sharing what build it is would be a lot more helpful.

Keep trolling bruv.
[Streak 5 Android Development] checkbox111:
No, what you mean is there were two threads with 'official' in the title, they were about as official as a News Of The World Report on a Sunday.

Just because they claimed that Elvis was officially found alive on the moon, that doesn't make it an official statement from Gracelands or Nasa does it :rolleyes:

Don't have wifi at work so can't try it till late tonight :(

Fair enough I miss read I retrack my statement.

Well....ignore my post...seems that the update I am picking up is direct from Dell anyways so will be getting this when I get home.

Sadly, I've heard that there are still bugs present on them, i.e. volume button and facebook not working. On a plus, supposingly the update is pre-rooted :rolleyes:

I rofl'd genuinly :D If i could rep you or something I would :P

Well its good to know this isnt the 8023 build now I pray its better....updating...

Just curious but isnt it o2 thats forcing this update out? So how come its on dells servers?? Just curious and again if im wrong well hugs? :P
[Streak 5 Android Development] Radddogg:
Hi,

I'm installing the update but it is hanging at the screen with the android and the triangle with exclamation mark. It has been there for about 45 minutes now. My Sterak is rooted with clockwork mod recovery but stock 1.6. Will this affect anything? What do I need to do if it doesn't progress? Hope its not bricked!!! Eeeek!!!!

Regards

Rob
[Streak 5 Android Development] cue_32:
Official updates dont normally play well with custom recoveries. That's why if you get the OTA update notification and run it, it wont work cause it need the stock recovery.

At least that's how it goes with my Nexus One and I'm gonna follow the same rule on my Streak.
[Streak 5 Android Development] goqic:
Affirmative. Got the leaked 7546 version running and I'm downloading the official update via settings -> softwareupdate right now in the background.
[Streak 5 Android Development] goqic:
Done it.

So far looking great!

[Streak 5 Android Development] squalllion1uk:
Still got lag with going into widgets unless animations are switched off.

Let the list begin!

Now I'm thinking maybe I should roll back to 1.6 then update to this just to see ...
[Streak 5 Android Development] quikt:
Did this on my locked ATT dell streak from the first 2.1 beta released. renamed to update.pkg and booted into recovery and did option 2 to install update. worked fine. couple things noticed is i keep getting notes that a new update is available and tries to get me to download again. no option to move to front facing camera. wifi more reliable. battery performance so far questionable. market working fine. happy streaker here. froyo plz
[Streak 5 Android Development] johnnobts:
glad to see another att user installed it without a hitch. I just want to also make sure you can downgrade back from the new 2.1 back to 1.6. If in case I need to switch back to a 6601 firmware for froyo. Also, quick question: does the dell pc sync software work with the new update? didn't work with the 2.1 beta. would like to get to use amazon unbox on my phone again.
[Streak 5 Android Development] jvc.silence:
again lag even after official update....i will downgrade to beta one...much faster and better.:)
[Streak 5 Android Development] quikt:
just tried syncing, dell software not finding my phone. last time it worked was 1.6. never tried on the 2.1 beta. adb seems to be working fine.
[Streak 5 Android Development] johnnobts:
dell needs to fix that, along with the front camera problem. and lag issues apparently. another question, universal androot works ok?
[Streak 5 Android Development] quikt:
took two tries with universal androot but it did root fine.
[Streak 5 Android Development] johnnobts:
good to know, thanks. last question, if someone is willing to try it, b/c I know some have complained this is more laggy than previous 2.1 builds, has anyone successfully downgraded back to an earlier version from this, or even back to 1.6? once again, I'm just trying to make sure I won't have issues returning to my 1.6 usa one day if need be.
[Streak 5 Android Development] royalmail:
Download and installed. So far so good except the camera button do not work. Any idea?
[Streak 5 Android Development] quikt:
camera button works here. press harder on it and hold. lightly pressing not enough. similar to a press in the recovery screens.

i have beautiful widgets and the skin i used previously now is over sized and looks crappy. does anyone know how to resize the home weather widget to a smaller size?
[Streak 5 Android Development] squalllion1uk:
Another issue I have well Issue/change.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Troute:
I think the idea with the camera button is to stop accidental activations, pushing the button down to the second click and holding it works fine once you know to do it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] John Dee:
Well The update installed OK and some pointers.

No info on the battery yet.

The Good

The camera is allot better and much quicker to take shots (less chance of blurring)

The wifi will now connect to a wifi that has been hidden with user inputed info suppled and remember the settings after the wifi has been swiched off and back on again.

The grouping of the photos and videos is a big improvement.

The dialer looks allot nicer and operates about the same.

The videos in rock divx player is allot smother with a higher frame rate.

The Bad

You can not save apps to the desktop (it only allows you to choose shortcuts, widgets, folders and wallpapers).

The info bar that allowed you to go directly to another desktop has been disabled and you are locked to 6 desktops that you cant delete.

You can't have different wallpapers for different desktops.

The Dell backup software will not see it.

THAT SODDING KEYBOARD (I may just go back to 1.6 over this as I liked my number pad).

The Strange

I could not sine in to my account over wifi and had to turn it off to log in to the market place.
[Streak 5 Android Development] JWallstreet:
I cleared my dalvik-cache after install and it gor rid of the lag. This build is running smooth. I noticed that the haptic feedback setting is broken.
[Streak 5 Android Development] quikt:
Noticed in exzeus my accelerometer controls are switched... :mad:
[Streak 5 Android Development] checkbox111:
Thought i'd take the plunge and:

I can't log in to either google mail or market, i've tried re-booting hard re-setting but still get the same:

'You don't have network connection this could be a temporary problem or your phone may be provisional for data services'.

I also have a connect to wifi button even though i'm already connected.

Also when plugging streak into laptop it's not recognised by my dell pc suite, i get an E removable device in 'my computer window' but when i click on it i'm told to 'insert a disc into drive E'.

Anyone else got these?
[Streak 5 Android Development] clubtech:
No one noticed that the accelerometer is acting exactly the opposite than how it should in portrait mode?

Also the lag and endless bugs...

I somehow managed to downgrade to the older non laggy beta but it was a pain to do !

I can't believe they actually released such a poor final build.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Troute:
Look for the small dots on screen in the bottom left and right corners, a long press brings up the five windows and a short press switches one at a time.

Same problem with the backup software.

To log in to Market turn off WiFi and log in by 3g alone, then you can turn WiFi on again and it should work.

As above m8.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Troute:
One small annoyance, hitting the Home button now takes me directly back to the main screen, on 1.6 one hit would drop me out of whatever app to the screen I was on and a second hit took me back to the main screen.
[Streak 5 Android Development] zero.fx:
Updated last night, looks like a new phone to me. Never used Android 2.1 before so this is completely new to me.

Update went through very smooth but had to reload all my apps back in to it and I still ain't finished as i don't remember fully what i had before lol.

I haven't really notice major performance difference mostly anesthetic changes, keyboard is alright not as bad as people make out to be. But anyhow I still installed swype on it.

I like the new browser look and the phone looks a lot nicer.

What I am missing tho is why I no longer can use the front facing camera??? i liked that

Live wall paper is pretty cool too but one thing i dont like is how the app icons are now have a much larger space between them there for you are fitting less apps on to the screen. That sucks it was fine as it is on 1.6 before why break this?? :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] Guest69:
My main bug is that after re-installing my paid for rockplayer, when I try to open it it takes me to the rockplayer web page, doesn't look like anyone else has that problem though?

My music doesn't recognize many of my files now, and did previously.

Not having a list of the free market apps I had installed.

Pc suite not working, what was the point of backing up? Also my back up pro restore didn't work, had to factory reset.

Love the faster camera.

Love the live wallpaper, but concerned about battery usage.
[Streak 5 Android Development] paullong22:
I've upgraded to 2.1 today because that's what my phone told me to do! At first my SD card wasn't recognised when I connected to the computer. Phoned O2 and they told me to phone Dell - they gave me an 0800 number (eventually) that didn't work so I contact Dell Mobility support on 0844 444 3244. Their solution was to factory reset, but that only resets to a basic 2.1 installation so don't do that! While she was arranging to send me a new phone (unbelievable solution) I found on a forum that you have to 'mount' the SD card each time you connect your mobile - do this by clicking on the USB notification icon and then mount.

Now I can't use Dell PC Suite so I mentioned that to the Dell Support person. Again, same solution, replace the phone! I've even upgraded to the latest version. Why didn't O2 warn us we would lose synchronisation with Outlook. I've wasted about 3 hours on this so far today :-(
[Streak 5 Android Development] 0TheRain0:
Overall I think it's a great update, though I'm also seeing many of the bugs you all are seeing with 2.1. Most annoyingly, the omission of front facing camera functionality. It's hard to believe, makes me wonder if there's some way of getting to it that we are all missing. But likely not.

One thing I've noticed with mine that I have not seen mentioned is that when it's plugged in to either USB or charge, the touch screen behaves erratically to touches. Touching and keeping my finger down on the home screen causes the screen to wave back and forth. Touching and holding a key on the keyboard causes erratic jumping around of key presses. At first I became concerned that my unit was faulty, then I realized it's only when the sync cable is plugged.

Over all though, it seems really nice. Far better than Archos 5 IT in terms of stability anyway. So you can look at it that way, it could be far worse :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] nkamurlekar:
there is no Calendar option to sync with exchange activesync.... I get only Contacts... does any has this issue and know the solution

Hi,

I broke my screen 3 days ago and have had a replacement streak under warrantee. It is on O2 UK.

I had 8105 and was happy with it but the replacement is stock 3883.

I have looked all over for the 8105 download file but cannot find it. Any links I have found no longer work including XDA wiki.

The reboot with update message does not work(tried for hrs) and the about device/sytem upgrade says I have the newest update. So as we have seen on other threads all downloads have been removed. There are roumours and denials re a new download but I would just like 8105 for now please?

I have both 6941 and 8023 files but the 8105 worked fine for me.

Does anyone know a download link for 8105 please?

Thanks in advance

John
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
yes dunhamzz posted several links to it,

try here.

[Streak 5 Android Development] Johny1fin:
Thanks fards,

do you ever sleep?

The second linked worked ok.

I was beginning to think there was an official cease and desist order on xda etc for storing this and all forums had deleted it, downloading now.

I had also forgotten just how buggy 3883 is till using it again.

I have also installled the latest pc suite from dell but have not tried it yet.

I was looking on the dell site for that even couple of hrs then of course some nice kind person gave a link to it.

I have now installed it on my SD but only have 19% batttery so am charging now. I will have a bath (sorry for that thought chaps, but a least you have not seen my photo) and try after that.
