Market Issues

I can definately vouch for market issues.

Most stuff downloads and installs fine.

But several don't (Adobe Flash, Adobe Air, Tower Raiders Gold, several others). They either say "downloading" forever and never actually start. Or they immediately say download unsuccessful.

This is even after doing factory resets, cache clearing, etc.

Market Issues

I can report that going from 1.0 to 1.1.1 was straight forward and did not require a wipe of my settings, etc. however I did have market downloading issues. Software would indicate a download start, but would never finish. I deleted my dalvik cache using Root Explorer, rebooted, and have not had any further market issues.
[Streak 5 Android Development] gingernator007:
Market issues are Google not rom related, I been seeing the exact same issue on my hero as well
[Streak 5 Android Development] airicd22:
Not sure if this is related to ROM, but at my house (York, PA) I was getting 800/270 on my At&t 3G, I have ran the same test today more than 10 times and I'm getting 1460/877, 1630/690, 1510/1080, 1537/955 and so on. i've never had those speeds on this thing. Maybe network status is better today than it has been in three years...??? Not sure like I said I don't know if this is related to the ROM or not, but I noticed this today after the upgrade.

IM getting greater speeds also, about 1250 kbps, ever since 2.2 I have also had better reception everywhere.
[Streak 5 Android Development] MagixNET:
2.2 seems to simply make better use of the baseband allowing for better reception and greater speeds, before the upgrade I was only getting GPRS (Not even 3G) but now im getting HSPA and i'm getting solid reception in areas it would normally constantly drop out.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bigmike84:
First: Thanks steve for all the hard work on this and the continual progress.

Now on to my issues.

1) As mentioned before, when you watch a youtube video, the screen no longer auto rotates.

2) I've had it happen a few times now where the phone will go to the DELL boot screen while it was plugged in and running and I have to take out the battery to reboot it.

3) I cannot enable the wifi hotspot. Tethering works fine, but the hotspot pops up with "error" every time I try to enable it. If I try to enable it multiple times in succession, the phone crashes.

Other than these, the small bugs I'm noticing have already been mentioned.
[Streak 5 Android Development] sultanbrunei:
anyone ...?
[Streak 5 Android Development] rodjordan:
You can go directly to the 2.1 from the EURO 00 version. Then to 2.2. At least that's what I remember ....it seems a lifetime away now I'm on the lovely 2.2 ;-)

Yah, turns out all the downloading issues yesterday were Google themselves. They had a notice on their support page saying they were aware of the issues. THy fixed them yesterday evening.
[Streak 5 Android Development] rnj79:
I'm so glad! I was wondering what we had all done... I just d/l'd and installed updates with no problems!!
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
ok folks need an opinion. who would want to use a build (most likely test build ) of froyo which has working wifi hotspot support BUT has the flashing leds problem ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] airicd22:
The flashing led's never bothered me mush, I would use it.
[Streak 5 Android Development] STraver:
I thought the flashing LEDs were kind of neat. They showed memory activity and I actually miss them!:cool:
[Streak 5 Android Development] Lord P:
Speaking personally, I could care less about turning my phone into a wifi hotspot (far too jealous of my bandwidth to share!), and I use the LEDs to determine whether I have a text or not (using StreakLED). But meh, I'm happy to go with the flow. I can always use the flashing LEDs as a makeshift glowstick type thing the next time some industrial music comes on at the club! :D
[Streak 5 Android Development] bitziz:
What causes the flashing led? On 2.1 flashing the superroot fixed that no?
[Streak 5 Android Development] HansTWN:
I had the same problem on my new UK Streak. After 3 tries I figured it out. You have to run the flash recovery program first. Basically, treat your streak as if you had an American version, flash recovery program gets you to version 4399_21 and from there you can upgrade to 2.1 by "regular means".

Look at the "guide to upgrading and downgrading", you will find everything there.
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
right folks i need a couple of VERY experienced users who have rebelsims to test something for me - jump into irc channel #dellstreak on freenode and drop me (dj_steve a im for info please - must not be scared to use fastboot
[Streak 5 Android Development] jf1288:
Same here,

Is there a fix, or maybe changing a few numbers from the root explore, annoying to see tiny mms..
[Streak 5 Android Development] GenghisKhent:
I'm asking before I leap because of the hours I spent going from my US AT&T 1.6 to the "official" O2 2.1 and then back to 1.6 to restore my baseband to US (31 vs. 21). Following the upgrade to 2.2 here, will I have the 31 or 21 baseband? And if the 21, should I care? The only problem I noticed last time is I could not access my AT&T MicroCell (a FemtoCell).

[Streak 5 Android Development] ebaul:
If i'm not mistaken, you have to select the update with the name, like froyo1.1.1.zip, not the update.zip. I think update.zip is from clockwork itself. Not sure, hopefully someone who actually knows about this can reply to you. When I did it from 2.1, i did the clockwork recovery, then once in clockwork, I select install from sd-card, then i selected either choose zip or select zip, then I selected the name of the file that I downloaded, something like update-release-1.1.1.zip.

Hope you find your answer soon so you can enjoy the speed and the awesomeness of this build. It's worth it

Can anyone help???

Running 2.2 v1.0 with rebel sim on VodafoneUK.... I can receive calls but for some reason there are a few people that can't hear me talking (I can hear them) also text msgs to at least one of those people aren't being received (show del report my end) is this a known bug for 2.2? I'm trying to eliminate as many possibilities as I can.... 3g is fine (shows "H" frequently but works)

Has anyone else experienced this or anything similar?
[Streak 5 Android Development] ahfunaki:
just to verify, does this have the stock type notification bar that's split up into different sections or is it just one bar that goes all the way across the screen?
[Streak 5 Android Development] nebukadneza:
Just one bar, its standard android without the Dell custum UI.
[Streak 5 Android Development] GenghisKhent:
I asked this question a number of posts ago and I thought the answer was simple but I guess the question got lost in the shuffle so I will try again:

I'm asking before I leap because of the hours I spent going from my US AT&T 1.6 to the "official" O2 2.1 and then back to 1.6 to restore my baseband to US (31 vs. 21). Following the upgrade to 2.2 here, will I have the 31 or 21 baseband? And if the 21, should I care? The only problem I noticed last time is I could not access my AT&T MicroCell (a FemtoCell).

Bah, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the response!

I support you on that. Surely, that dell bar thing was really handy. At least for me. Anyone knows the exact apk for that [NOOB ALERT]?

Suden Battery Drain

Hello everyone. I am suddenly suffering from battery drain. Phone dies after 4 - 5 hours tops from a full charge. When I go to settings/about/battery I noticed that media server is utilizing 50%, display is using 20% and cell standby 26%.

What causes media server from using so much? I deleted ALL pictures and videos from the SD card, but I noticed that there are more than 2000 files in the snapshot folder on the SD card. Any thoughts?

I'm not sure what changed, the only thing I installed after upgrading the v1.1.1 is Act1 video player cuz the native 2.2 is giving me that "This video is sound only" or something like that.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.:(
[Streak 5 Android Development] ahfunaki:
Yep, it's one of the things that makes the huge screen usable in my opinion...

Looks like I'll stick with the o2 2.1 for now...
[Streak 5 Android Development] Cypher84:
Finally got some free time so I've flashed 1.1.1

So far I'm very pleased with the performance over v.3 and the videos are sorted, although as mentioned the audio only message still comes up. Rotation finally feels normal and battery performance is decent again, market is all good skype etc. ill give it a serious test tomorrow. Great work Steve thanks, how's the cm6 port looking?
[Streak 5 Android Development] tavella:
I want to say thanks for the 1.1.1 release. This is my first Android device and just got it on Friday. Works great so far.
[Streak 5 Android Development] sultanbrunei:
How can I go directly from EURO 00 1.6 to UK 31 2.1 ? the serial number is not the same (00 with 31)... I tried all those instructions. but still the upgrade won't run! it always says "software is uptodate"
[Streak 5 Android Development] yungj:
I can't use the function of wifi tethering, anyone can help? When I start the function, it shows "error".
[Streak 5 Android Development] Freakernoid:
Wifi tethering is currently not working, its being work on.
[Streak 5 Android Development] p_razzi:
I have my video set to 720p but the quality is terrible - so much compression as to make the video unwatchable. Any suggestions?

1.1.1 also seems a little less stable for me than previous versions both in device hangs requiring a battery out reboot and in screen rotation locks.

(US AT&T Streak)
[Streak 5 Android Development] yungj:
Thanks for your help. Is any program can doing wifi tethering now? I've tried barnacle and Wireless Tether, but still not work.
[Streak 5 Android Development] nebukadneza:
Are you sure its 720p? I doubt it, because I had the same thing.

First, you need to set video quality to custom or changes, whenever I didn´t do that, all other changes had no effect. I don´t even know if thats a bug or just how the android camera app works.

After that you can set the resolution to 720p, but chances are the camera app crashes. But D1 and WVGA work an those videos are pretty good.

Does android always save video files in the 3gp format? The streak is my first android device and coming from WinMo, i would have expected avi oder mp4.
[Streak 5 Android Development] GenghisKhent:
I have a US AT&T 1.6. Will upgrading to this 2.2 ROM change my baseband from AT&T (31) to O2 (21)?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Freakernoid:
Don't think i can help you much, as i don't use it. Maybe others might be able to advise you on that.
[Streak 5 Android Development] bitziz:
Barncle works well :)

Stuck at Dell Logo

I seem to be the only person getting stuck at the Dell logo after flashing and it's really frustrating!

Here are the steps I'm following:

Flash stock 2.1 recovery (6941)

Flash stock O2 2.1 (8105) using PKG

Reboot phone, confirm it boots 2.1 successfully

Shut down and flash 2.5.0.1 clockwork recovery

Reboot and apply 1.1.1 update.zip and reboot

I have also tried a factory reset both before and after flashing to 1.1.1.

The Dell logo goes through one animation cycle and then it just sits there indefinitely. It's worth noting that beta 3 worked on this device but I cannot go from it or any stock build to 1.0 or 1.1.1 without getting stuck at the Dell logo.

Any help would be super appreciated. I can't wait to get a reasonably stable 2.2 build running!
[Streak 5 Android Development] rabydanimal:
I found a solution. It looks like you have to go in to the partitions menu of clockwork recovery and mount each partition before rebooting. Odd this was omitted from all the tutorials I found!

Thanks for bringing froyo to my Streak!
[Streak 5 Android Development] mr_wehbe:
force close

Hi,

Does any one has the network force closing problem after upgrading to 1.1.1??

regards
[Streak 5 Android Development] GenghisKhent:
Thanks Charles. I have an AT&T MicroCell (a femtocell) to boost reception. When I upgraded to the O2 2.1 a while back, with my baseband changed to 21, my Streak no longer connected to the MicroCell. When I reverted back to AT&T 1.6 and the 31 baseband, my Streak would connect to the MicroDCell. So I think I will wait until Dell's 2.2. Dell said it will be out before the end of the year, and sooner than later. And if you can't trust Dell, who can you trust? :eek:
[Streak 5 Android Development] csasek:
referenced in this thread multiple times are steps to correct this. IIRC you should do a wipe before the update and then do a factory reset from the stock menu (not the Clockwork menu) before the first boot. I'm certain that if you browse or search the thread enough you'll find the details
[Streak 5 Android Development] xdahk:
I had same problem

Try the following

1) Take out battery and replace

2) Boot into recovery mode (stock recovery screen)

3) Factory Reset the Device (in stock recovery screen, not clockwork)

This fixed it for me. I had the same problem as you.
[Streak 5 Android Development] yungj:

[Streak 5 Android Development] aesarius:
Amazing work Steve! :D

First of all, thank you so much for al the time of yours involved in this project...

Greatly appreciated!

It took about 5 mins to install Clockwork Recovery and your Froyo build on my rooted 2.1 ( 6941 Build ) Streak. No baseband flash needed and my rebel sim stills works. Got 3G data working here in Oz and the APN's were actually already set-up! Just had to click on the Optus APN and here we go!

The only problem I seem to have is that I can't seem to get WIFI connection... It hooks up to the network then disconnects, then hooks up again then disconnect?

Any tips on this?

Thanks again and I can't wait for your next release!
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
Havent seen that issue with wifi..check channel your using and try changing it

Sent from my Froyo Beta Dell Streak
[Streak 5 Android Development] aesarius:
Hi Steve,

Thanks for your fast response!

Don't know but I just had to restart my router and it fixed it! Weird since all my other devices were running fine on WIFI... Anyway.

Now I got a Streak running Froyo working thanks to you! Except camera and the things that you mentioned, it's all gggoooodddd... GPS, 3G, WIFI, Market, etc... Will post about battery life is I get a chance.

I have to say, before FROYO, there wasn't much of a Streak but now it is running smooth and fast and I think that every Streak owner should do this update for sure! You will see what this device is really about and this is only a beta build! Wow.

Cheers.

Steve, tell me please, does the new 2.2 build still void warranty?
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
the whole voiding warranty crap is junk provided you can flash back to 2.1 pkg (which ya can) your warranty is not really an issue. but yes it would in theory void it but i cant really see dell etc refusing service because of a custom rom when they have admitted to me they want to make it more hacker friendly
[Streak 5 Android Development] damo182:
ok new here to this and having troubles.

I have install clockwork Rom manager? from market.

But when I restart the streak and select update from SD card, it comes up saying no update.pkg found

Its as if clockwork Rom manager isnt working? I have never used this program before so can anybody help out?

Also i tried going into Rom manager and selecting, update from sd card, then the phone just reboots and nothing happens

What am i doing wrong?
[Streak 5 Android Development] phjnky:
The one from the market won't work or at least it didn't work for me. I used fastboot to flash clockworkmod then battery pull and straight to recovery mode. It's not a .pkg update so that won't work. Once you have clockworkmod running, you select the .zip from your sdcard and go. Once you hit option 2 you should go to a clockworkmod screen which provides a bunch of choices. If you don't get to the custom recovery screen after option 2 you won't be able to get the load in.
[Streak 5 Android Development] damo182:
can anybody give a step by step on getting clockworkmod to work?

I have tried a few different things but none seem to work, I read 1.8.1.7 might work, does anybody have a download link for that?

Ok, running the latest 2.2 ROM now (cheers Steve), and it's great to finally have the Streak I wanted. Makes me sound like a German porn star....oh well, could be worse!

Noticed a couple of relatively minor teething problems:

The camera isn't working (as has been stated previously)

There is a rather odd screen issue too, which no-one else seems to have mentioned. Every so often the orientation will switch through 180 degrees when running an app (I've had it happen while on the Marketplace and in a browser), but the desktop stays normal. Most peculiar!

One or two apps won't run, but I'm not sure if that's a problem with the ROM, or (more likely) an incompatability with Froyo.

But other than that, it all appears to be working very well. Nicely done :)

hello... anyone ...?

which flash recovery program ? the 'stock recovery' program is it ? (the one you found at the step by step guide)

By 'treat my streak as if I had an american version', do you mean to say that, I should just skip changing version from 00 to 21. and instead go directly from my current 6267.00 to 2.1 ?
[Streak 5 Android Development] Spleisher:
Anyone else seeing FC's on the phone subsystem, "com.android.phone"?

I get them fairly frequently when answering the phone, and I think sometimes after dialing too.

The conversation I am on seems to continue just fine, but after it happens, I have to reboot in order to dial anyone else or access the phone in any way.

Any ideas on this one?

[Streak 5 Android Development] petesbodyparts:
Errhh, we do help each other. You can go direct as long as you upgrade the baseband. Earlier posts did mention what thread to have a look at.

Process is...

0. Install the 4399_21.zip and Steves 2.1 and 2.2 ZIP's on the SD card

1. Install Clockwork mod (look at the thread for Clockwork)

2. Flash 4399_21

3. Reboot

4. Install Clockwork mod

5. Flash Steves 2.1 release

6. Reboot

7. Install Clockwork mod

8. Flash Steves 2.2 1.1.1 release

9. Reboot

Should take you about 15 minutes to get up to date with 2.2
[Streak 5 Android Development] GenghisKhent:
Assuming you are starting with the US baseband (31), is it an "upgrade" or instead just a change (to O2's 21)?.

My concern is if I change the baseband to 21, and then want to use Dell's 2.2 when it becomes available hopefully later this month, will I first have to change the baseband back to 31? I've done that once already (going to 2.1 and back) and it was a PITA. Anyone know?

You need to root your device in order to use Barnacle. I would suggest you search the market for Universal Androot.
