I am currently using the unmodified stock dell 2.2 ROM posted by Steve.

Firstly, I would like to thank you for putting those up Steve. ;)

Now I am currently having some issues with the ROM and was hoping someone could confirm whether or not thesr issues were apparent in Steves lastest 1.4 build aswell before I flashed over to it.

* The front cam is nolonger recognized by either Fring nor Tango. Defaults to the rear cam.

* Dell Stage Video (is it present in 1.4?)	Doesn't play. Video is all screwed up and it fries the orientation sensors causing the screen to nolonger rotate. Reboot fixes the sensors.

* Unable to get into gmail from browser. Some sort of security issue? Browser goes into a srange refresh loop.

Can anyone please confirm whether or not these issues are present in Steves 1.4 update and whether or not they have figured out how to fix these issues if they are present?

I am currently at work, so it may be a kittle while before I've the time to dig into the 2 builds and see what's going on. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I'm away from my PC.

Same here :( went straight from locked O2 8105 B/B 21 flashing the 3 files steve magically put together (didnt even need to factory wipe or reset at all so kept all data!) Due to rebelsim my sim was not recognised... i dont know if its possible to do the "nobb" (no baseband) upgrade??? Im hoping rebelsim 1.3 beta will be compatible? I posted a thread the other day but only 1 person replied :-) im waiting for the programmer to arrive. Let me know how you get on, ill send a pm :)

I bought Dell Streak from Hong Kong, running stock 2.1 with baseband end with 11. Can i update to V1.4.1 without going from V.1.1.1 ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] shigga:
Came from 1.1 (working front cam in fring) to stock 2.2 ( no front cam in fring) then back to steve's 1.4. front cam not working in fring nor any video res above vga in 1.4 though rotation works great now.

Anyone aware that the lag is serious when using Rockplayer to player dvd quality rmvb file. I compare the quality with 1.30 version, 1.30 version has no lag/framedrop.
[Streak 5 Android Development] yiuwing_hk:
I just re-flash 1.30 and Rockplayer can play the same rmvb file smoothly.

Seems 1.4.1 has something on the cpu setting?
[Streak 5 Android Development] tommycathh:
This ROM 1.4.1 is great about speed but it also has some problems...

gmail isn't working on 1.4.1..I can't access to my gmail..does anyone have the same prob.?
[Streak 5 Android Development] ipguy:
no, ive got two accounts setup without any issues
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
Bit the bullet and went for it yesterday, via 1.1.1 then 1.4

After flashing 1.1.1 it hung at the Dell logo, but going back into recovery and pulling a factory reset sorted that.

Seems to work pretty well now i've set the APNs up. Baseband says it's a "00-EU". Is that right now? I was expecting a 21 but am quite prepared to be wrong :D Signal seems a bit worse than on O2 2.1 BUT I do think that particular build was a bit "iphone4" in it's reporting of signal strength if you get me...

gmail works, marketplace works, it ALL works as far as I can see!

My only "complaint" (not that I would - that would be VERY unappreciative) is that the video player doesn't work as well as the one from the O2 2.1 8105 with my .h264 mp4 rips but it's not horrendous by any stretch.

I miss the notification and "control" bars from the "official" ROM - it was really handy to be able to get into airplane mode so easily and control the alarms etc. BUT this is "Vanilla" Froyo (yum) and it's just a case of learning the paths really.

I'll test out the bluetooth phone calls tonight on the way home from work. If that is improved from 2.1 then we're rocking....
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
those modded notification things are not in official 2.2 either
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
Ah yeah sorry - I meant official 2.1. doh!
[Streak 5 Android Development] aluthier:
Download Extended Controls from the marketplace. It lets you create a custom widget on the desktop that you can turn on and off just about ANYTHING from.
[Streak 5 Android Development] sooby77:
I got 2 peculiar behavior with Steve's 1.4.1 (coming from leaked O2 2.1 8105). After flashing it and get it up and running, if I do a factory reset (volume button way), it would get stuck on the Dell logo, and never move past that. I would have to reflash.

When trying to exit the stock browser, I get FC as well. Any help? I didn't format my microSD card, just factory reset my device. Perhaps I need to do that?
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
@ aluthier: thanks for that - i'll give it a whirl!

@ sooby77: My browser moans about FC when I exit it too, but I just presumed it was a bug, as it doesn't seem to affect functionality in any way.

I've had a chance to try bluetooth calling on the way home and it certainly seems an improvement. The whole ROM seems quite promising so far....
[Streak 5 Android Development] sooby77:
I'm glad I'm not the only one experience this quirky browser behavior. I resisted flashing to Steve's ROM, but then when I saw how much fiasco Dell's official ROM, I decided to take the plunge. I must say that flashing Android is much much easier than Windows Mobile roms.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
I hung off from doing it for a few weeks cos it looked a bit of a "faff". Glad I did now though!

And why am I saying "quite promising"??? Apologies to Steve cos it's looking "feckin' ace" right now!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] miscom:
After upgrade from official 2.2 to 1.4.1 my gmail was crashing. To fix it I went to Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> All

Look for Google Mail, select it and then "Clear Data". Restart your phone and gMail should work again.

Anyone have a tun.ko that's working with 1.4.1?
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
i posted a tun.ko on modaco post :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
ok 1.4.2 up, you need 1.4.1 to flash it as its only an incremental build fixes calender and updates google apps
[Streak 5 Android Development] Edrill:
Upgraded to 1.4.2 without any issues! :)

1686 on Quadrant after upgrading to 1.4.2!
[Streak 5 Android Development] aonavy:
first off thanks for your hard work. :)

but the direction arnt that great. i was on the official 2.2 (dj's way with the 3 files) and wanted to get 1.4.2. so i downloaded 1.4.1 and installed it to the sd card. installed it with recovery and now im stuck on dell logo. i rebooted and did a factory reset. then flashed again...still stuck..so what im doing now is a factory reset and booting it up...looks like im still stuck.

got any ideas?
[Streak 5 Android Development] p_razzi:
1.4.2 and scary fast with set cpu at full overclock. Quadrant score showing 1700.
[Streak 5 Android Development] tungsifu:
1.4.1 working grrrreat!!! Only prob for me is the phone reboots during calls

1.42 update

Anyone having issues with the 1.42 update? I'm getting "Installing update", then immediately after that "Installation aborted".

Thanks
[Streak 5 Android Development] kicking back:
recently upgraded to 2.2 1.4.1

First, thanks for all your work!

After 2 days of work, I finally was able to get 1.4.1 up and running on my streak. However, the weird thing is, I can't change my ringtone. When I try to choose a ringtone, the ringtone doesn't ring for me to hear what it sounds like. Instead, I click on one, then the screen goes back to the settings page without changing the ringtone.

Also, I am a noob.....when upgrade to 1.4.2, do I just run the update from clockwork mod recovery like previously?
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
Upgraded from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2, very easy, took only 10 minutes or so including downloading time. I really do not know why I had a big trobule while upgrading 1.3 to 1.4.1, but it's done anyway (that was only time I experienced hardtime upgrading Steve's masterpiece). I wrote what I did here if you are interested:

http://android.modaco.com/content-page/322298/streakdroid-froyo-v1-4-2-announcement-thread/page/720/

1.Now, calendar has lines, besides it is in Japanese!!! I am witing for DELL to release new sync for FroYo. I have NERO free version, but somehow it does not sync to Outlook 2003 that I am using.

2.Youtube works fine, and no more rotation issue(actually it was fixed at previous version).

3. Car Home app looks handy. I will test it when SOFTBANK start selling car holder with fair price.

4. Cam works fine in both picture and movie. The only issue is it is beeping so loudly. I can turn it down, but it gets back loud again after one shot. The only way to make it quiet it to use silent mode.

And please accept my small donation again for this wonderful work, Steve. Thanks a lot.

Just picked up a US Streak build 6601, wondering what the easiest way to get this rom on the device would be? I have been very unsuccessful so far I don't want to be stuck on 1.6
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
mistadmans recovery doesn like thie 1.4.2 flash clockwork recovery to flash it
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
I tried mine and found that it had the same ring tone setting issue with 1.4.2.

I used clockwork 2.5.x to upgrade from 1.4.1 to 1.4.2. I think that is the one you installed in your Streak.
[Streak 5 Android Development] xilpaxim:
*EDIT*

nevermind, I should probably really read the first post before asking these questions! Sorry!

I'm on version Steves 1.0. Can I just do a factory reset, then upgrade straight from 1.0 to 1.4.2, or do I have to do it in increments? I'm not worried about backing up any info, I installed originally with the knowledge that I would be most likely wiping everything sooner than later so I haven't done anything that needs backup.

Oh, I'm guessing I need to upgrade my recoverymod also, right?

Im waiting on rebelsim solution (hopefully sorted in the next day or so) so im not as far ahead as you but i do know that to go to 1.3.1 you have to be on at least 1.1.1. Hope that helps slightly :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] msgnyc:
Can anyone please verify if fring and/or tango work using the streaks ffc using 1.4.1 and/or 1.4.2.

Both default to the rear cam on the official rom.

rooting problem...

i have installed 1.4.1 ....but im unable to get root for few applications....i used ur Universal androot ..it shows rooted after two attempts but still titanium says roots not available....also one more issue i encountered is default lock hangs at times...any solution...
[Streak 5 Android Development] bigdaddy4u:
you have to use z4root app (in the market or search) and it will root for all programs.....

Ring tone setting issue fixed by itself. umm...
[Streak 5 Android Development] shigga:
front facing cam was working on 1.1 it now only works on the rear in 1.4. Is there something I can change to get it working again?
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
OK, done some more "testing" and 3 things have come up as "issues" so far

1: (minor but irritating). I'm running setcpu now and psx4droid has really come to life BUT the notification bar refuses to hide. Is this a ROM issue or a setcpu issue?

2: "this file is audio only" while playing videos. I know it's documented already and no, it's not a biggie. Just annoying :)

3: A bit more serious - whenever i've been using GPS and then turn it off I lose my data connection and have to reboot to recover it. This is the one I really would like to see fixed of the three if possible?

Nothing else has come up yet. Bet there'd be more than this if i'd gone for the Dell ROM..... :D

Bluetooth Volume

First Thank You SO MUCH DjSteve :D

Is there ANYONE that knows how to increase the bluetooth volume? I Love My Streak and want to keep it, but it's hard when the one means to talk on this thing doesn't work (Well anyway). I use bluetooth whenever i talk and it's frustrating that Dell didn't get Talking Right.

Please help....
[Streak 5 Android Development] nebukadneza:
I am kinda new to flashing on Android devices since the Streak is my first one. What is the easiest way to get from 1.0 to 1.4.2? I am guessing 1.0 -> 1.1.1 -> 1.2 -> 1.4.2, or can I just flash 1.4.2 via the update.zip?
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
I went from o2 2.1 (8105) to 1.1.1 then flashed the new baseband then finally to 1.4.2 with no problems tip, make sure you flash the correct .img between stock rom and updates (once you are on custom rom and using clockworkmod you dont need to use fastboot or flash .img, you just update via .zip sd card each time and factory reset when instructions say to)

Hope i havent confused you :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] nebukadneza:
Thanks, I am already at Steves 1.0 and have flashed the clockwork mod recovery. What is that amss.mbn file? Do I have to flash that one with fastboot?
[Streak 5 Android Development] cameronmfjay:
Yea you should flash the amss then reboot and let the phone boot all the way on then flash 1.4.1 then 1.4.2
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
possible volume boost under test as i type :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] tina333:
Amss.mbn is the baseband upgrade.. you need it run anything above 1.1.1 :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
Bluetooth volume does seem a bit better than on 2.1. Any further increase would be welcome though :)

My biggest problem currently is that activating GPS kills my data connection completely and i can only get it back with a reboot. Caused me problems with google maps today - could see where the car was but it couldnt download the map data. Have I done something wrong somewhere?
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
check you apn has the types default, supl and mms set :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
Ahhh thanks Steve. Knew it must be me cos no-one else was reporting it :o

While i remember, is there a way to stop the notification bar being "on top" all the time? I'm a bit keen on psx4droid..... :D
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
cant say ive noticed that issue over here
[Streak 5 Android Development] bigdaddy4u:
wow - thank you :-)

sms/ringtone settings error

I just flashed the update.zip for the latest update and was sad to find out that the sms notifications and ringtones are still unable to be modified under settings, just force closes the settings window. Any idea what may be causing this, and if its something you will be able to resolve in future releases steve? Thanks for all the hard work you've put into this great Rom.
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
still investigating notifictations
[Streak 5 Android Development] zgmf-x322a:
hi all,

just trying to make sure of some stuff before i try out this new 2.2 version

i have use the clockwork to do a nandroid backup of my current 2.1 update and flash to this 2.2....if this 2.2 isnt working for me, so i just use the nandroid to restore my 2.1 backup and it will be okay, am i correct?

my friend asked another question coz he is using Android 1.6......

what happens if he flash directly from 1.6 to 2.2? will the streak die or something?

thanks a bunch bros!

AT&T US Streak

Steve,

Seems nobody has asked this question here yet - will your Froyo release work on US AT&T flavor of Streak? I believe you have EU model, so no testing will be done on American one?
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheReal666:
Works fine on my us at&t streak
[Streak 5 Android Development] kag8:
hi i managed to upgrade to froyo, loving it, just one question, you know how in 2.1 if you touched the network bar on top right a list of settings would come, i.e. turn on data network and wifi network, how can i do dat on 2.2? i wana be able to turn wifi on n off as i please, d only way i can find is going through the looong settings page...
[Streak 5 Android Development] springah:
thats a DELL ui thing. not included in stock froyo.

BTW I followed this guide:

Coming from the stock US 1.6 version and my phone went into 2.2 without a hitch...Everything worked the first time up..Didn't have to change anything besides turning Data services on...

1. Camera and camcorder...Good...

2. Wifi and 3G(Well Edge cause I am TMobile) good...

3. GPS good...

I seriously didn't have to configure anything outside of redoing my accounts and re-installing my Market programs...

Again...Thank You so much...:D

Edit: Wanted to clarify that I went from US 1.6 to O2 1.6, from O2 1.6 to O2 2.1, from O2 2.1 to Steve's 2.2 using the guide.

ill probly put out a 1.4.5 tonight with fixed factory reset and a couple other edits but notificiations are still being *****y
[Streak 5 Android Development] Radimus:
There is a quick workaround for setting your notifications ringtone.

Just turn the volume down to silent, set your notifications tone, then restore the volume.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bluefrog:
OK i've sussed my notifications bar "issue". I didnt like the lcd density at 160 as everything is too small for my preference. Changing it to 200 made everything too big so i'd experimented with 180 - nice! However it looks like that gives the notification bar nowhere to go when a program tries to hide it. I've changed back to 160 and it's now hiding when expected...
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
Tone settings, not only ring tone but also others as well, became unable again. I do not know when exactly, but charged Streak over night and checked in the morning, it was unable. I do not think it has something to do with charging, but related to some apps. Any idea?
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
as in not working or working
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
Try to change setting, like "noisy one" to "organ dub", the green button moves down, but after press "ok", and check the status it is still "noisy one".
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
1.4.5 is up :) check first post for details
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheKenAnthony:
ok need some help... i was on 1.4.1 and did a factory reset to reset data and it wouldnt boot so now have tried to install a couple zips to get somthing to work... any ideas?? what should i go back to so that it will boot up...
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
Great!!! I will check ASAP and report.
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheKenAnthony:
ok i can get back to 1.1.1 but have no signal because of when i flashed the new baseband... i should be able to power off and install 1.4.1.zip right after booting up 1.1.1 right?? aaahhhhh....:)
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
yep just flash straight to 1.4.5 :)
[Streak 5 Android Development] alaskan84:
Thanks for the latest update steve! If there is anything I can do to help troubleshoot the notification issue, dont hesitate to ask.

@Thekenanthony- I had the same problem when I did a factory reset earlier as well. Steve just released an updated version that now allows us to factory reset without this issue. I had to flash each update sequentially until I got to a version that was compatible with the baseband I had updated. Maybe steve can chime in if you can flash straight to 4.5
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
flashing straight to 1.4.5 should be fine now yes as fac resets working again(dell are yet again to blame for screwing it up by the way)
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheKenAnthony:
@alaskan84 ... thanks .. just did that and yeah had no service till getting back to 1.4.1 .. kinda scared to try to go to 4.5 now.. can i go straight to it or do i have to get 1.4.2 first?? thanks again..

dang steve, your replys are too quick :) thats some pretty darn good rom customer service you've got going here
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
LOL i could reply tomorrow and i'd still beat dell
[Streak 5 Android Development] alaskan84:
aint it true
[Streak 5 Android Development] TheKenAnthony:
ok so if im now back on 1.4.1 and going to 1.4.5 do i need to do a wipe first or can i just flash the zip on top of 1.4.1??
[Streak 5 Android Development] Radimus:
is the starting point for this still 1.1.1 or 1.2.0

(amss is required regardless)
[Streak 5 Android Development] alaskan84:
@TheKenAnthony I would not wipe at this point, I would attempt to flash straight to 4.5....although I have yet to flash the latest 4.5 yet myself.:rolleyes:
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
No need to wipe. And no need to start at older version now you can go straight to 1.4.5
[Streak 5 Android Development] puchg350:
Just upgraded and did some tests. Upgrading from 1.4.2 was pretty easy. Downloading took less than 10 munutes.

I found something very interesting:

Setting tones still did not work at first, but after I change volume level up or down from "setting", I can change tone settings as well. Restart Streak, the tone setting remains as they are, but I cannot change otherwise I move volume level.

(EDIT)I wonder if it is possible to check what all those "tones" sound like. I think I could actually hear them while setting.

Camera focus beep is still loud, and I cannot find the way turn it down, otherwise completely shut off by choosing silent mode.

Thanks for your work, Steve.

Video Recording Not Working

Hi DJ,

Thank you for your awesome work.

I found that the camera is not working for video recording.

I tried this on 1.4.2 and 1.4.5

It was fine in 1.3

Thank you for your great work.
