[Streak 5 General] :
Is Dell canceling the Froyo 2.2 update rollout?

Did anyone notice that the, up to now, available updates for GAUSB1A111100 and GAUSB1A101100 are no longer available on the Dell Update site?

GAUSB1A121100 (Not yet released AFAIK)

GAUSB1A111100 (Previously package Streak_315_12332_00.pkg)

GAUSB1A110700 (Previously package Streak_315_12332_00.pkg)

GAUSB1A110100 (Previously package Streak_309_11548_00.pkg)

Might Dell be undeploying the updates because of all the bugs and stuff?

At least I don't get to see any more "update available" pages when I access those URL's through my browser (both on laptop as Dell Streak browser).

They all go to "No software updates available at this time." :/
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
Well how many posts are there on this forum alone saying that this, that, and the other doesn't work properly after upgrading? You need to be an M.I.T tech graduate to add them all up. If i was going to upgrade (which i'm now not going to do) i would be dreading it, not looking forward to it.

I'm going to wait until SPB mobile shell 5 becomes available for the Streak and use that. At least it's actually got positive reviews.
[Streak 5 General] Trust_no1:
Now Android 2.3 Gingerbread has been rolling out

If Dell cannot make the better Froyo they should start developing 2.3 right now !
[Streak 5 General] paincorp:
i'd rather wait for them to finish developing froyo (which they're obviously close on since they're selling them unlocked with it) than wait for them to start over completely on a new verson....
[Streak 5 General] decoyeb:
soz dislexic and was peed of at time:)
[Streak 5 General] tosh1:
If Dell doesn't come out with the US Locked version 31 update by Dec. 14 I am selling this piece of ****. There are so many things you can't do on this 1.6 and I am sure they kept delaying the release to fix all the buys. That part I dont mind so that I wont have to go through all the issues people are experiencing on the update.

I am just tired of waiting. We paid good money for this phone on an almost obsolete software - so please update DELL.

I am going to sell this if it doesn't come out and get the new Nexus and just unlock it for ATT. That phone is suppose to come out right before Xmas.
[Streak 5 General] BrockFerens:
This phone rocks, coming from a galaxy, and x10 I find this phone better in almost every way. Update it yourself to official 2.2 and throw the fix in there and your gold. People are starting to pay attention to this phone, and should not be very long until gingerbread is up and running cant wait
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
+1 i have 1.6 and not willing to give up on the awesome phone
[Streak 5 General] paincorp:
having a working GPS makes 1.6 worth it, at least to me
[Streak 5 General] BrockFerens:
My GPS works fine.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Which froyo are you running?
[Streak 5 General] paincorp:
i meant on the captivate
[Streak 5 General] gavelis:
There are a few howto´s on Modaco (from 2.1 to 1.6 and "How to go back from 21 to 00 builds"). Haven´t tried them yet but hopefully they´ll work.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Streak is only 2 weeks old purchased from Tesco Direct online, is an 00 device & came with 2.1 installed, is definatly not an O2 unit it has no carrier branding of any sort
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
I dont see any evidence that 2.2 is released
[Streak 5 General] zipr0:
Bought mine from Digitec in Switzerland (official Dell re-seller here). It's baseband GAUSB1A110700-EU

That's the standard non-provider UK unlocked version. OS is stock 1.6, Build 4399, never tampered with.

Still: "No software updates available at this time."

I seriously doubt Dell has released anything yesterday. I hope they didn't find a show-stopper bug
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
I'll put money on the fact that they did !!

or the deployment process is stuffed
[Streak 5 General] zipr0:
Since nobody seems to have received the update, I guess they must have pulled it, or they didn't release it as planned for whatever reason. Would be nice (and easier on their servers) if they just let us know why it's not out yet despite yesterday's announcement.
[Streak 5 General] OrionBG:
There is NO Official 2.1 version except for the O2 one! This must be some custom ROM they have build to sell the streaks better!

2.1 was made by request of O2 and it was later pulled for many bugs! DELL never released 2.1 to non O2 Streaks!

Can you please make a screenshot of the About screen? I would really like to see what version is the baseband and all the other build info there!
[Streak 5 General] zero.fx:
I am kinda MOD EDIT over this, being one of the early adaptors and brought mine out right from o2 but getting screwed over cos its locked to the carrier (At that point there were no unlocked device sold by dell). I want my froyo goodness ..... i want justice...
[Streak 5 General] zipr0:
I can understand your discontent over this. However, right now, nobody's getting the update at all.
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Dell screwed up "again"
[Streak 5 General] Godo_PPL:
I don't understand why you are so pissed about not getting the 2.2 update the first second it is released. And you're not getting screwed over, you willingly bought an O2 Streak with Android 1.6. Thats what you paid for, thats what you got!

in a more easy tone:

Scince Dell has told people that BETA tester units will recieve the update first, I guess that is what will happen.

Any1 here got an BETA unit? If so, please share if & when you recieve the update :D

BTW: What is the baseband of the BETA units?
[Streak 5 General] rodjordan:
They work. But it requires a little care. I have done it from Steves froyo back to the EU 00 6267.
[Streak 5 General] limpman:
too much talking guys........the main point did any one got 2.2 update? may be dell lying us.....?
[Streak 5 General] zgmf-x322a:
totally agree with ur point coz iv tried it too
[Streak 5 General] elbowz:
I'm on a UK unlocked Streak with 00 baseband and there's no sign of the update yet... very frustrating... but they say patience is a virtue!
[Streak 5 General] ruskival:
No Updates in Australia Either

Im in Australia

Got My phone from Optus but its unlocked out of the box and does not have operator bloatware

Dell Streak 1.6

Baseband : GAUSB1A111800-EU

Kernel : 2.6.29-perf

OEM : GAUSB1A111800

Build : 8116

today when i was checking update it was saying no updates available then changed to no update available but with english and french flag and now it actually doesnt load the page at all like it gets stuck trying to do it.

hmmm... very weird
[Streak 5 General] zipr0:
The problem is that what "you got" is an extremely buggy device. I don't mind 1.6 per se but the constant software issues / crashes / reboots / restores / tones no longer working until a reboot / apps force-closing etc. etc. annoy the heck out of me. And I have the feeling I'm not the only one here.
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
Mine is 1.6, bought direct from Dell, USA, and I haven't had any issues.

No bugs here...coming from the last 7 years of windows PPC/windows phones, I can tell you it has been nice to turn on a new device, and not have to spend a few hours tweaking, hacking the registry, adding configuration tools to boost the performance. 1.6 for me anyway, it pretty fast...I can wait on 2.2, it's not that

big of a deal for my personal use.

Now, that being said, I use email, messaging, and the internet pretty much.

I'm not into watching videos, playing music 24/7, twitter or anything like that.

I use mine as a phone, and a business tool.
[Streak 5 General] checkbox111:
You should have taken your phone back because you've got a crap one, i've had 1.6 and 2.1 and never had a problem with it, the only time i ever reboot is when the stupid back cover falls off.
[Streak 5 General] avneeshshrotria:
I have the exact same device . In India. Exact same thing happening on my device also....

I want 2.2 soo badly... cant wait...
[Streak 5 General] eastside770:
im running 11548 on locked att and everything works fine gps is really fast
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
Same here...still on 1.6, no lockups no daily reboots (like my past 3 window phones), no spending hours installing apps to boost performance out of the box.

So 2.2 is out, 2.3 is on the way...I can wait, only had it a month LOL.
[Streak 5 General] cheetah2k:
Doesn't surprise me, there was a Tweet from someone in Dell saying that they would pull the current load of updates, and re-release them shortly...

To be honest, there's not too much wrong with the 315_12332 package, although it should be much quicker in certain tasks IMO.
[Streak 5 General] cheetah2k:
So... you will have had your DS 7 months by the time we get Gingerbread :p
[Streak 5 General] p51d007:
And my phone is working perfectly...unlike the iphone which had a grip of death problem. At least with the streak, it would take TWO HANDS to get a grip of death LOL.
[Streak 5 General] Czechnology.cz:
...and just as Dell made it at last to Froyo, Google releases Gingerbread :D
[Streak 5 General] subvecto:
dell streak froyo (2.2) update...

manual update, works fine... annoying haptic feedback can be disabled now...
[Streak 5 General] Biggzz:
Where is the update?
[Streak 5 General] wear90:
Hi VLAMERS: I have my Streak with same version like you: 315-xxxx. I updated from Android 1.6, GAUSB1A111231-US, version 6601. Version 315-xxxxx have APN with "E" (EDGE), before was "H" (HSDPA or 3G).....I do no not know what happened?.....have you same problem?.

Greetings.

wear90.
[Streak 5 General] CyberGhos:
I got same problem with build 309. Hard reset the phone, everything works fine since then.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Wow its gotten pretty quiet regarding froyo for locked phones.
[Streak 5 General] Kohawk09:

[Streak 5 General] palace35mm:
HI All,

my Streak is acting weird in the last few days.

I'm on the Froyo Official build and its restarting every 5 to 6 hours.

Can anyone help me please.
[Streak 5 General] m4tt24:
No-one has quite figured out what causes the reboot seems to happen on most versions, some say its the back plate working loose or something similar and some think its related to apps or some programming in the phone, mine does it occasionally and the only thing that definatley does work for me is to back everything up and factory restore.
[Streak 5 General] akguy:
Mine did 4 Factory resets on its own in the last two weeks. Dell is sending me a new phone.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Just Got Notification of update for my Streak Baseband GAUSB1A121100

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A121100

Looks like it might be improved update hopefully

Streak_318_12821_00.pkg
[Streak 5 General] lilshorty:
hopefully it gets rolling pretty quick cause im getting anxious to update to a custom rom. dont get me wrong i love the streak but i want an update!!!!!!!
[Streak 5 General] :
Awesome!

Downloading right now, But I wonder what they changed from Streak_315_12332_00.pkg
[Streak 5 General] flub:
61% so can't tell you LOL
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Where's the Att update? Damn

Sent from the Dell streak
[Streak 5 General] :
Already got the file, on SDcard, currently verifying update package.

I just hope that it works, seeing as I went from GAUSB1A121100 to GAUSB1A131500 via the Streak_315_12332_00.pkg package, and now try to upgrade again via the just released Streak_318_12821_00.pkg package.

I'll make sure to post again whether success or fail ;-)

Double wonder if the Baseband changes again, or stays at GAUSB1A131500.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Installed OK

Baseband changed to GAUSB1A131800

everything seems ok at the moment
[Streak 5 General] HansTWN:
check the main problem areas:

Browser redirects -- try open Modaco site in the default browser or Dolphin HD

Front facing camera

720p recording
[Streak 5 General] ronj1986:
Tr1gg3R,

Patiently awaiting your results. At least I have comfort in knowing if this is a bad version, I can go back to 315 which is awesome to me with the exception of browser redirect and no FFC in video-conferencing apps.

Could you test browser redirect with streaksmart.com 1st please sir?
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Modaco opens up fine in default browser

Front facing camera works

video working ok on highest setting
[Streak 5 General] :
I concur, GAUSB1A131800 seems to be the new baseband.

No problems (yet?), and everything seems a bit smoother (especially scrolling and typing on the Android keyboard.)

Doing a "Factory Reset" just to be sure to erase any traces of the previous firmware.

Just as the previous one, it seems to keep all my applications and most settings.

Feels a bit mixed, so a "Factory Reset" should fix that :-)

I have to add that I never suffered from browser "redirect errors" or anything like the other people have posted at XDA.

I will test just to be sure :-)
[Streak 5 General] flub:
sreaksmart opens fine no probs with default browser
[Streak 5 General] :
I second that :-)

Streaksmart.com and Modaco.com both work without a hitch.

I do seem to have some Mobile Data issues, no GPRS/3G/HSDPS so far.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
dunno wether its me but Z4root won't work on this version
[Streak 5 General] :
I'll test that first things in the morning, but hope it isn't true :D

For now, it seems that the Vodafone Data channels are down (at least for business users). Good enough a reason to get some sleep while the internet rages with #Wikileaks and #Anonymous :eek:
[Streak 5 General] ronj1986:
I don't even see z4root in the market for me. Should know which option to use to root, once more ppl have this on their Streak. FFC doesn't work in Fring or Tango with this update everyone.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Z4root can be found on XDA just do search its not on market place

I rooted using SuperOneClick v1.5.4 also found on XDA
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
I have fring and ever since the latest update my ffc does not work in this app. By the way I am still on 1.6 locked Att.

[Streak 5 General] ronj1986:
I have fring and ever since the latest update my ffc does not work in this app. By the way I am still on 1.6 locked Att.

Thanks for this info, so I take it this is Fring & Tango's fault, since mine did work with Android 1.6 installed.

new bug fix!!!

have you seen the bug fix dell released yesterday?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866204

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A121100 now links to the http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProduc...18_12821_00.pkg which is again 150 MB
[Streak 5 General] gavelis:
Yep, the 318 has no redirect bug anymore :)
[Streak 5 General] wonsanim:
Guys I need some help because I can't go in to recovery to try to update from 309 to 318? just reboot again back to 309 after this message "FOTA model name mismatch system will reboot in 30 seconds" (In My android system recovery utility still GAUSB1A120621 but in My device the GAUSB1A130900-US is this the problem?)
[Streak 5 General] CyberGhos:
How did you install it? I put on SD card and boot into recovery from SD card, run ok then Streak reboot and blank screen for 15 mins, nothing happens. I am stiil with the Streak sitting at a blank screen now. What should I do?
[Streak 5 General] gawarner:
downloading streak_318_12821_00.pkg update: then FOTA

Shouldn't I be able to install this update?

I get a FOTA mismatch.

I am currently running Android 2.2, build 11548

Baseband: GAUSB1A130900-US

Kernel Version 2.6.32.9-perf
[Streak 5 General] avneeshshrotria:
Again INDIAN and other guys with originally Build 8116 ON firmware 1.6 unlocked ... who stayed on the 309 package ... i think you can update to the 318 build package.

Baseband:GAUSB1A131800

Build:12821

Changes noticed :

1.The build seems to be more stable then the 315...

2.Browser redirect problem seems to have been solved.

3.fring and tango still dont switch between cameras.

4. Nothing has Forced closed till now... (note: its only been like 5 hours of using the phone on this build)

5.Z4root seems to not work(any suggestions for rooting lemme know please?)

I think its highly recommended much better then the 309 package(Im saying this to you 8116 guys).

Right now im on the official kernel:2.6.32.9-pref

Going to flash DJ-Steve's performance kernel now... will get you know how it goes.
[Streak 5 General] Keethos:
Just a quick question guys, when I updated from 1.6 to 2.2, I ended up starting from scratch, wiping everything and manually installing all the apps and stuff I had, which also meant having to set them all up again etc (and losing my game save :( ) because of the big jump, but since this is just a bug fix update, would you suggest starting from scratch again (factory reset and all) or use a backup and restore with something?
[Streak 5 General] Terrigno:
I have the same thing. Fine out anything about this?
[Streak 5 General] tina333:
Titanium backup pro is good, loads of useful aspects too... make sure to just backup user apps and don't try restoring data if your on a different rom (mountains of force closes otherwise)
[Streak 5 General] Keethos:
Cool, thanks tina333!

With using Titanium though and just restoring the apps, will that just install the apps again for you or will it actually restore them along with any settings you may have made or even save data for any games you may have played?
[Streak 5 General] tina333:
Im not 100% sure but I tend to use filter to select only user apps, batch to restore apps only then check through the list make sure I want everything. Just trail and error really but if you restore data then get force closes just uninstall and restore app only instead. :)
[Streak 5 General] DarkDvr:
foySorry or my noobness, bu I just bought Streak today, and coming from the Nexus One got a lot of questions..

If I got the ATT version running 1.6, can I update to 2.2 without rooting the thing? I dont care if its the real ATT version or just a regular stock dell froyo.

And a related question: does updating to DJ Steve's Froyo require root?

Thanks!
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
No you do not have to Root to update you can root after you have updated

Happy flashing and Welcome to the Streak Family:)

Streak 2.2 build 12821 gausb1a131800-eu

Hi 1st time on the site, can anybody confirm the following, have downloded the lates dell official build for 2.2 yesterday, however I cannot turn my data on and off using the power control widget, wfi works as does gps brightness and blue tooth, can anybody else confirm if they have this problem, its driving me nuts the only way I can turn the data on is by using a 3rd party app APN on/off widget, that sometimes gets stuck, grateful for any help guys & Dolls
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Welcome to the streak Family

On the power widget its

wifi-bluetooth-gps-auto sync data-brightness

The one for date is auto sync data ,switch it off then go to settings ,data and have a look then switch it back on then ave a look:)
[Streak 5 General] Thunderhead1:
Hi, thanks for the info, do you mean to tick the auto-sync option in accounts and sync setting, as I have done that and still cannot switch the 3g data on and off thanks again
[Streak 5 General] Keethos:
Think what lufc meant was that the button on the widget isn't to turn data on or off, but to enable or disable auto sync, the standard power widget doesn't have the option to enable/disable data connection. If you get the "Extended controls" off the market place (60p) then you can have custom made power widget and you can have the option to enable/disable APN (which is pretty much the same as enabling/disabling data) along with your other settings like wi-fi, bluetooth etc. Hope that clears things up for you.
[Streak 5 General] chinkostu:
it cleared my APN's too. had to frantically type them back in as i needed sat nav and only realised when i was setting off!!

I still like my streak even if it is not flawless :)

[Streak 5 General] adzman808:
there's a mod to permantely depress the lever that tells the phone if the cover is on (or not) which folls the phone into htinking the back cover is always on

not only does this mod stop the back cover re-boots, but also enables hot swap of micro-sd cards (unmount the card 1st tho ;))
[Streak 5 General] adzman808:
as pc suite for donut & eclair have been available for ages i'm surprised that there's no 2.2 version...

maybe they're getting ride of PC suite completely & relying on google cloud sync for data & the nero back up for data?
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Their is i downloaded it last night its made by Nero not the backup apk but its Nero 10 with dell stuff thrown in i will look for the link and post it
[Streak 5 General] adzman808:
well it's clearly been made by dell (as i'm sure ALL versions of streak OS have been)

the 2.1 version i downloaded from modacco has listed as "v2.1 update1"

so i suspect this is based on (or exactly the same as) the 2.1 release from dell that was released

but who knows.... (well dell obv !!)
[Streak 5 General] :
On unlocked Streak bought directly from Dell in UK. Currently in India. Never updated to 2.1/DJSteve 2.2.
