No-Sim error

I couldn't find any other post regarding this, and if there is I missed it. Ok, so I'm on the phone and suddenly the phone app begins to blink, like if I was triggering the sensor to turn the screen off. I finished my phone call at that same time and on the notification bar there was a message stating there was no sim-card on the phone and there was no signal bar. I've only had this happen once, will report back if it happens again.

Just weird, never seen that one before.

BTW, Steve's 1.4.6 ROM on my Streak

Forgot to mention, though it eventually got my signal back, I rebooted phone and it was all good
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
I do not remember which Steve's version it was, but I had a similar issue. But once Streak found the signal, it never happens with my Streak.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cueball12:
Thanks Steve! 1.4.6 is rockin'
[Streak 5 Android Development] subsparx:
Highly impressed with the Rom. Everything runs amazing, especially compared to the stock rom. Keep up the good work. Thanks!
[Streak 5 Android Development] abshire57:
Nope
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lucifer4obg:
Deamn! Sorry for cursing but this is wow!!! I'm totally impressed! I'm waiting for new releases ...

**NOT OBVIOUS THINGS in Upgrading Your Dell Streak**

Thank you for the great work Steve!!

Now that I successfully upgraded, it's time to share some...

**NOT OBVIOUS THINGS in Upgrading Your Dell Streak**

#1. TRICKY: if you happen to use Rob's excellent "What you need to know about the Dell Streak" guide [ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=776883 ] to install ClockworkMod, IT WILL NOT WORK TO copy/paste the line "fastboot –i 0x413c flash recovery recovery-clockwork-streak.img" into your command prompt! That's because "–i"as it shows up in the PDF should really be "-i" (with a hyphen, not a longer dash). So you CAN copy/paste this: fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery-clockwork-streak.img

#2. Note the difference between booting into FASTBOOT and booting into RECOVERY (which allows running of the ClockworkMod):

>> booting into FASTBOOT (to add the amss from your computer) is done by turning on your device while press/holding both POWER + CAMERA (let go when the screen turns white)

>> booting into RECOVERY (which allows running of the ClockworkMod by selecting choice "2" and then flashing a new ROM) is done by press/holding POWER + BOTH VOLUME BUTTONS (let go when the screen turns white).

#3. The clockwork mod SELECTION button is a FULL PRESS (beyond the "halfway mark") of the camera button

#4. Given the above, please see this CORRECTION for Steve's instructions in the original post: step 5 should read: "5. Once your device has booted, shut it down again, and then boot into clockwork recovery by by press/holding POWER + BOTH VOLUME BUTTONS (let go when the screen turns white). Then choose option 2.

[[what to do next: wipe everything, then select "install card from zip," then select the zip file you copied to the SD card with Steve's new ROM]]

#5. I don't think you need to take out the battery before doing either of the above--just shut down the device (ie, while the phone is running normally, press/hold POWER until you see the menu, then select POWER OFF). Just make sure it's completely shut down before starting it up again (with the buttons held down as above). If you do take out the battery, you don't need to put the battery cover on while in the white screen modes (FastBoot or recovery).

#6. If you put the battery back in and find that the device won't turn on, I found the following worked: took the battery OUT again, then plugged it into the USB port on the computer for power and turned on the device while press/holding both POWER + CAMERA. When I got the white screen, I put the battery back in and unplugged from USB, then started Fastboot, then after 10 seconds plugged in to USB and able to do fastboot commands (including, if desired, rebooting with: fastboot -i 0x413c reboot ).

Hope this saves some people some grief!

wooo... hoo!!! I was about to throw in the towel....

The process to do each of these is quite simple and in most cases documented well and accurately. But in my case, as it often is with any hackery, modding, or simple geek-ery i have rotten luck and end up spending more time than necessary on the project..

for me I spent all day going from att stock 1.6 to many flavors of o2, to final get to Steve's magic ROMs, but i finally got to Steve's, the first time I unpacked the files and rebooted, the rom seemed to be running and it flashed a ui twice, then back to the dell logo..... waited about a hour on the logo and then pulled the plug....

the second time I too got stuck on the Dell logo, I flashed it and the system boots a few time to the splash screen, alternating from the White Dell to the purple animated Dell Logo, and after the 2nd loop of those it final hung at the Dell logo.... I honestly figured that is was just me and the naming of one of the files I pushed or I was using the wrong image.... so I threw in the towel and was looking for the 2.1 image that last worked to push back and then I found this post that said that the a factory reset worked for them... I figured what the hell why not try it before I flashed 2.1 back on... and Low and Behold.....

I was eating FROYO as my Midnight snack.......

Many Thanks to Steve and everyone that has helped this community and the likes with their time and polite assistance...
[Streak 5 Android Development] :
need alot of help plz

ok so i had followed the instructions exactly and ended up stuck on the dell logo so i nandroided back and now i have lost all my networking and lost usb all together no charge or anything i cant even mount usb storage in recovery any help is gretly appreciated thank u
[Streak 5 Android Development] raulty:
where do i start

Hi Everyone

As i can see Steve has done a perfect job of getting froyo to work better than dell themselves.

I want to load steves version but just not 100% on where to start.

i run windows 7 64 professional on my laptop

Im running o2 2.1.update 1

baseband :GAUSB1A120621-EU

KERNAL :2.6.29-PERF

BUILD 8105

Ive already rooted the handset with universal androot

I think its just it will be first time to flash a phone , i have read the guide on how to do it

just need some pointers & how long it will take me & which versions of steves froyo i need to install to get all the benifits

thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
go straight to 1.4.6 if you dont use rebelsim,

and if your going from 2.1 it should be matter of flashing amss dsp and clockwork in fastboot then rebooting to recovery and flashing the 1.4.6 zip then rebooting to recovery (the first screen) and hitting factory reset
[Streak 5 Android Development] cemian:
Unfortunately no front cam for video calling yet but contacted yahoo hopefully for a fix on their messenger app :(
[Streak 5 Android Development] Spriggen:
i got a question

since i factory reseted the streak on 1.4.2 and it wont boot and i update to 1.4.5 will that fix my problem? the dell logo keeps cycling im a bit clueless in what to do any help would be appreciative thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] xilpaxim:
Got 1.4.6 up and running last night. Very nice! Fast and stable. I got the front facing camera working in camcorder but doesnt work in fring. Is it supposed to work and im just not doing something right? Is there a different app that will do video chat?
[Streak 5 Android Development] rodjordan:
Does this apply to both of the existing 2.2 versions the 309 and the 315 packages? I don't use rebel sim.
[Streak 5 Android Development] csasek:
I did the same thing but didn't change the amss file nor did I do a factory reset and so far it is working fine and I didn't lose any of my apps
[Streak 5 Android Development] tuanda82:
is there any tool to calibrate G-sensor? My streak stuck with landscape mode and cannot go with portrait. Game like Labyrinth needs calibrate G-sensor before play
[Streak 5 Android Development] Spriggen:
can some one more knowledgeable help me... i kinda factory resetted on steves build 1.4.2 and it cycles the dell logo and nothing happens. id appreciate any advice if my streaks salvageable XD. it was an up grade from his preivous build im just wondering if i put 1.4.6 on sdcard and upgrade again would it sort it out?
[Streak 5 Android Development] paz101:
maybe this is a silly question but is there not any way to add greater codex support to the OS so that you can play xvids, avis mkvs etc thru the hdmi of the streak dock, or even a way to get third party players to stream through the dock?
[Streak 5 Android Development] jmbneaf:
Ditto that. Fring front camera was working on 1.2 (or was it 1.3?) not working on 1.4.6.

Any ideas or other apps that work would be appreciated.

[Streak 5 Android Development] Meltus:
Fantastic work steve, you sir are a legend!

Getting amazing quadrant scores too... :D

Only 1 problem though (dunno if it's already been mentioned), can anyone actually get the dell stage home widget to "get" their location? Mine just says 'getting location' permenantly.
[Streak 5 Android Development] xilpaxim:
Meltus it got my location after I went into Google maps then let it find my location from there, so maybe it has something to do with that. Or also click on the text and it takes you to accuweather and put your location in, though it might take a while to still update your location info.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Meltus:
Hmmm, it doesn't seem to be able to find my location in maps either.

I'll keep trying though, thanks for the tip! :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] subsparx:
I'm assuming you're using overclocking tools to get that score? If so which one are you using?

[Streak 5 Android Development] vijay15:
I absolutely love the 1.4.6 BUT I have two major grievances ...

1. CAMERA - I downloaded the dsp1 via fastboot. now, i cant even switch to camcorder, as I get a fc right away.

2. GPS - After having the gps location not work (worked perfectly in 1.1.1) I tried downlaoding and reinstalling GPS Status - aGPS stuff. Still doesnt work ...

any ideas?
[Streak 5 Android Development] vijay15:
My bad ... I got the camera working ... but NOT the GPS ... Still would love some help!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] tuanda82:
Anybody told me how to re-calibrate the accelerometer sensors? I can calibrate from game but the main screen cant go with portrait. I use ADW launcher

Great rom but I take it nobody cares for a functioning front cam for chat?
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
Hi all

Quick question

What do i need to do to provide log data for djsteve if he were to look into the sticky slide to unlock issue.

Is there a syslog equiv in abdroid ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] xenolala:
Send DJ_steve.

I'm up room 1.4.6 , My DS Failed not slide UI. but wait for 3 minutes then normal operation.. is there a way fix this? thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] Freakernoid:
Not everyone needs it, but doesn't mean no one cares....i think steve knows about the bug(although its able to take photo).
[Streak 5 Android Development] brunswick000:
Can I go straight to 1.4.6 from this or not??

Dell Official - 2.2

Baseband Version - GAUSB1A130500-US

Kernel Version - 2.6.32.9-perf

OEM Version - GAUSB1A130500

Build Number - 10688

Would love to try it out, but only if im sure it will work. Not looking to do another repair.

thanks for any help.
[Streak 5 Android Development] csasek:
I did it. I flashed the recovery and then the new ROM. I did not do a wipe nor did I flash the baseband... your results may vary
[Streak 5 Android Development] vijay15:
Gps/location ... anyone help?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Meltus:
Set cpu overclocked to 1.19 i think.

It flies :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] brunswick000:
I flashed from the above phone info. Did a reset right off the hop (probably didn't need it). Now as far as this ROM is concerned:

1) It says fard's tweaks are included......should setcpu be installed with the update? If not do I just need to install and then reboot for them to take affect?

2)the camera - should I see an option for "720p" or just the "high 30"? Cause im only seeing the "High 30". I assume I need to flash the dsp1??

Just looking for a bit of help. Also something else that is strange is that the market is working fine, but I cannot update my Mybackup Pro. Nor, can I restore my apps with my current version.....it says it is not able to find the backups on the sd card, but they are there.

**got mybackup working with a downloaded newer version.**

**also figured out the setcpu issue. just needed to auto detect. My first time overclocking ;-)**

Just camera question now if anyone can answer. Thanks again all. Loving this phone, er slate, er tablet or whatever it is.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Synyster_Zeikku:
My texts aren't sending to people quickly enough? But I receive texts fast. anyone else got the same problem?
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
look in the brightness menu on camcorder and scroll down 720p is in their :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
There's a free app in the market called sys info (icon is black with a grey spanner) it will let you test the sensors to see if they are working :-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
Logcat is the android equivalent, download the app then do the thing you think is not working, then go straight to logcat and you will see if there are any errors, also you have the option to save log and send to steve if needed :-)

Ringtones

Anyone else still experiencing the choosing a ringtone/sound issue? I still can't listen to a sound when I choose it. Even after 1.4.6 it still just closes. Is there a fix for this?
[Streak 5 Android Development] playin4sheezy:
I am wondering the same thing. Sometimes it will let me select a new ringtone but still cant hear the tone. And other times it just goes black then goes back to the settings.. Its a real pain
[Streak 5 Android Development] aonavy:
same issue. no biggie though
[Streak 5 Android Development] Volcanodancer:
Sorry chaps, Steve, etc.

I had to go back to the official O2 2.1 - it wasn't really working for me as 2.2 even with 1.4.6

Here's my problems which you might want to address:

1. Battery life - even with SetCPU set to power save and the lowest setting I could still only squeeze about 6 hours of mostly standby and occasional use. Since I'm out on sites of the time, I can't always guarantee power to charge my phone as 240V power is generally prohibited on sites.

2. Multimedia - Audiobox.fm holds all my music, and I love the app - but with Steve's 2.2 I am having serious problems with it not starting songs, or playing for so long and then stopping, or playing one song from an album and then freezing at the next song.

3. Multimedia - again - Lithium player just doesn't work right! - I get the constant "Can't play this media" message even though it is playing. The stock player is not great either, again giving me random lock-ups. Under the O2 2.1 I could play music for a couple of hours a day and still have the battery life to last till I got home.

4. Dell Stage / the alternatives - I just prefer the 2.1 standard launcher. I can't get on with ADW and Dell Stage is horrible.

5. Twitter & Facebook - both standard apps seem to repeatedly fail, or don't get status updates, or just disconnect randomly.

6. GPRS signal - It is DEFINITELY weaker. At the site I'm on at the moment, the front office usually gets 4 bars and HSPDA with 2.1 - today I was managing GPRS only, and 2 bars.

I'm sad to do this, but 2.2 ain't happening for me - I even doubt I'll update to the O2 version if it means suffering Stage for the two benefits I see which are front camera (which I never use) and Flash (which I have a netbook for).

Someone convince me otherwise...
[Streak 5 Android Development] Radimus:
If you guys don't check some ot the threads at modaco, this is a nice little addon:

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...ttery-meter-with-percentage-for-steves-1-4-6/

It changes the standard battery indicator to a circular percentage meter... that is one more app I can remove now.
[Streak 5 Android Development] subsparx:
Odd. I tried that program earlier and it didn't work. Repurchased it though and now it's working fine. Now my Streak screams =)
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
Let me guess, your using the builtin email app (not tbe gmail app) to check your accounts ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
Worked great, thanks for the link :-) really easy to do & looks awesome!
[Streak 5 Android Development] fyrwyer:
Actually it is, since I don't know what its going to sound like until it gets used. That's one hell of a way to find out what they sound like in order to decide what you want.

Baseband 31 work with this ROM?

Real quick question:

Im on ATT Locked Baseband 31, once I Root it I wont have to put the 00 baseband for this flash to work right?

All will be ok with the following steps.

Root

Flash Recovery

Flash other file amss or something like that.

Flash the ROM after.

I am tired of waiting on ATT and even then I think Steve's Rom will be faster. I am sure once the official for ATT comes out STeve can make adjustments or he just updates his roms as newer more stable things are released.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
sticky slide to unlock

hi steve.

here is an alogcat log re when the phone is having issues with a sticky slider
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
I noticed this so just report for the note;

Whenever I move to new wireless network environment, Streak starts scanning. But it keeps scanning and cannot find any exsisting wireless network. So I turn the wireless off and then turn on again, Streak finds exsisting network immediately and connect to it. This is happening since I upgreaded to 1.4.6. Not a big deal, though.

BTW - I am typing this with an external bluetooth keyboard. I had repeating issue like reppppppeat before, but with 1.4.6, it does not happen very often and which is nice. Maybe this has something to do with the CPU frequency.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
OK I upgraded to 1.4.6 over the weekend. The phone rocks. Stable, fast etc.

However I can't receive MMS messages any more? Well, I get the message but it won't download - gives an error.

I've set up the MMS apn. What's missing? I could get them fine on the o2 2.1 8105 build?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Volcanodancer:
Nope. Gmail.
[Streak 5 Android Development] fyrwyer:
Market

Anyone else browsing the market, only to find that they have a hidden update way down a list of apps they are just randomly browsing? If I go to downloads, there are no updates showing, but I can find 2 or 3 just by browsing the market categories. Shouldnt all updates show up at the top of the downloads page whether you have literally downloaded them or not?

1.4.6
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
Wouldn't that be a market glitch? Does firmware version affect market use? Mine is fine.
[Streak 5 Android Development] RavenY2K3:
Can I just confirm something, I went to Steves 1.4.6 ROM from the Official 305 ROM, so I didn't bother flashing the amss.mbn. Everything seems to be working OK, so am I correct in assuming that when I installed the official ROM, it also updated the baseband to the version contained in the amss.mbn file provided in the link at the begining of this thread?

TIA
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
that would be correct
[Streak 5 Android Development] irtehun:
Any info on the sticky lock screen. It has become so much of an annoyance to me I am about to switch back to my aria. Have had to pull my battery 8 times already today because of the issue. Is this a problem in 2.2 official also?
[Streak 5 Android Development] mancterrier:
Use screen mode widget lite app to avoid problems mate
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
that doesn't help when you need to answer a call... the reason the phone exists in the first place !
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
i've asked the same question myself a few times in other threads but got no answer... i'm ready to toss my streak in the bin and buy a HTC Desire HD
[Streak 5 Android Development] irtehun:
Yeah I'm getting pretty annoyed myself.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Mynamestaken:
Is it even a widespread issue? I don't have a problem and I'm pretty sure Steve isn't convinced it is an issue. Try recalibrating your screen. Mine went nuts after I put 2.1 on and recalibrating fixed it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] cameronmfjay:
I had the same problem man. But found a GREAT solution!! Search for "menu unlock" in the market. I think its one word. With it, all you have to do is push the menu button after waking the phone and it willl unlock. No more frustration for me with the slider screwing up.
[Streak 5 Android Development] mobile88:
Yes I agree with you. Personally I don't think is rom issue since day one on original 1.6, upgraded to Paul 2.1 then Steve's Froyo 1.0, 1,1.1 and now 1.4.6 I never faced such sticky slider. When I first read it I was wondering what was it.

Finally I understood - it could be some programs incompatibility causing it. If this is rom issue, I would suppose everyone will be reporting in such issues
[Streak 5 Android Development] ebaul:
Actually, it must be somewhat in the rom, I'm also experiencing the slider unlock sticking issue, I just thought it was processor scaling down while asleep and waking up, but I guess there is an issue, that's why i didn't bother reporting it, thought it was normal. I come from WinMo, so I'm still getting used to performance of android phones. Hope there is a fix besides downloading an app, I like the slider unlock
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
+1 I've said this so many times and I've seen other people mention it too... all times have been completely ignored! I'm now convinced people love the problem and moaning about it, sure its a bug but it could be worse and yet again...... there is a solution! If anyone is that attached to sliding the screen then simply go back to the less buggy 2.1 or 1.6... I'm sure steve (who works on this in his spare time) has bigger problems to fix.

Thanks for your fantastic work steve... any bugs you can live with so can I... when they do get fixed it just makes everyone appreciate your work more. I will be donating again soon :-)
[Streak 5 Android Development] Pandaemonium:
I followed the instructions in the original post and in the "What you need to know..." pdf, and I now have a Streak that just sits at the Dell logo. Any advice?

I was on Dell 1.6, tried loading Steve's 1.4.6.

Thanks.
[Streak 5 Android Development] Bizzach:
I'm on Steve's latest 1.4.6, and have been on his ROMs since 1.3.

No sticky slide to unlock issues whatsoever. I've got a Beta Streak.... maybe it's a hardware issue? Mine works great.

I have to agree, there's so much more in the ROMs that Steve has to be concerned about. Try out that app that replaces the slide to answer with buttons. If that doesn't work, revert back off of 2.2.

EDIT - have you guys tried recalibrating your screens?
[Streak 5 Android Development] xilpaxim:
for the sticky slide i too would suggest doing the recalibration in either fastboot mode or recovery mode.
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
Ok just calibrated, will report back in a few days with findings
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
@pandeamonium...You need to get to o2 2.1 then flash the new baseband then flash clockwork image then update from sd card to 1.4.6
[Streak 5 Android Development] VladimirNX:
I updated the device to the official 2.2 and found that it did not installed an important program - Navitel Navigator.

Please check install and run this tool on StreakDroid FroYo .

ive been using it since it came out. haha. and i know ive mentioned it to many people but it just gets overlooked. so nothing to do but continue telling ppl till they finally get it haha
