i have the asia dell streak build 7299 running stock 1.6....no updates for me yet ><
[Streak 5 General] Krisbo:
Dell says that the download link is dynamic and will only work because system updates in settings links in with the browser. From what I can see, the only link is that the system updater tells the browser what baseband version you are running as an argument in the address bar.

My Streak is running baseband GAUSB1A120621, so when I try and update the link in my browser is http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A120621

Wouldn't an easy way to force the update be to find out which baseband is rolling our first and edit the hyperlink?

Should that fail, could we not all just downgrade our baseband to the lucky first?

Kris
[Streak 5 General] superutp:
@kris:

OMG....was just gonna ask this...and was trying different baseband versions posted all over different forums to chk if any of them allowed anything...but without success...
[Streak 5 General] paliden:
I'm right there with everyone in the AT&T boat. Hopefully they'll limit the boatware to AT&T's tab in the Android market!!
[Streak 5 General] technillion:
What bloatware???

I got my Streak from Best Buy and there was NO ATT BLOATWARE...and I don't miss it!!

Are you saying there's ATT bloadware buying direct from Dell?
[Streak 5 General] scaronscar:
i dont think so i have an unlocked one got the code from at&t and when i look for the update it not there yet....but the pag is def thats good....i might call dell and see if i can give them my bild # and have them push it to me seeing how my streak is unlocked....ill let you know
[Streak 5 General] Trust_no1:
All I want to know is people that bought directly from o2 can get update yet?
[Streak 5 General] scaronscar:
ok so all you people out there with an unlocked one try turning off you streak and back on this is when you will see an update if one if out for you and your region..let me know if any one gets the official 2.2 from dell :D
[Streak 5 General] cu_ninja:
Tried that several times today. Still no go here in the US on an unlocked Streak.
[Streak 5 General] Krisbo:
I'm guessing that's although your Streak is unlocked, you have the AT&T version. The "before the end of November" froyo roll-out is only for Streaks that have a baseband ending with 00.

Kris
[Streak 5 General] scaronscar:
im going to try and put in a different sim and see if that helps ......come on people lets get this out to the mass's
[Streak 5 General] eastside770:
has anyone even updated yet thats unlocked?
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Has there been word from anyone that has received the official update?
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I had Steve's Froyo at one point but removed it bc my Streak was having issues. I ended up back on o2 2.1. My phone is fine now. I flash those files, it was easy. After flashing/rebooting, it wouldnt power on but we got it fixed. All is great in my world for now!!
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Yes we can!! We can play in the mud just like boys do!!
[Streak 5 General] vlamers:
stuck on dell logo since 15 mins.

How can I fix this?

Flashing steves 1.1.1?
[Streak 5 General] c0rnholio:
You're officially a NERD NOW...live with that ;-)

Factory unlocked

INIDA

Just got the steak a few days back should i try this package build on the phone? newbie here...

Im not sure if someone with this version of the streak has tried this?

Can someone confirm . any help appreciated .thanks
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Can someone do a full review of this update,

Impressions of the Stage widgets,

Speed,

Radio,

How is the camera/s working?

Etc

If someone can post a video - that would be even better.

Thx!
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
What are you updating from?
[Streak 5 General] vlamers:
Sorry i forget.

I came from 1.6 stock

Eu-unlocked

I´ve done factory reset, and holding the Power Button when I put the battery in.

vlamers
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Don't hold your power button. I had to do that bc my Streak wouldn't power on at all, it was a paper weight. Just try booting it like normal.
[Streak 5 General] Lord60:
quick review of this update?

Seriously... there are several on the web already, and some of those are accompanied by video demo's. Google is your friend in this case.

Is it just me or does this make it seem like Dell et all are a collection of idiots? Or are we the idiots... I know we got punk'd but do we classify as idiots now?
[Streak 5 General] vlamers:
Tried booting normal four times. Nothing didnt boot :(

Trying again to boot normal.

Thank you for your help!

greetings vlamers
[Streak 5 General] vlamers:
Doesn´t help my streak will not boot.

Which rom I can flash without breaking my lovely streak? :)

Greetings vlamers
[Streak 5 General] Lord60:
Evidently, 1.6
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
All I did was flash those 3 files he uploaded today. Make sure you extract those files into the same folder you have your fastboot.exe in. Put your Streak in fastboot mode and run the commands below.

fastboot -i 0x413c flash system system.img

fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn

fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

I did not move anything to my SD card. All I did was flash the files and it worked.
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I keep getting FCs with the video camera...
[Streak 5 General] CyberGhos:
I love you much much. You are now the most beautiful woman in my eyes. ;)
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Thank you. What did I do?
[Streak 5 General] vlamers:
This is what I do too?!?

Flashing again.

can I flash O2 UK now, when I flashed the 3 files?

Greetz
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Thanks, Lord60, for your response. I don't seem to find any of the reviews (including the ones with video) that you mentioned in your post. Could you please share a link that has the video of this build that became available today to the US beta testers. Thanks in advance.
[Streak 5 General] flub:
Dunno about dirty old men

how about grumpy old men

LOL I should laugh I fit in both catergories
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I was already on O2 UK so all I did was flash those 3 files, nothing else. After that, I rebooted and it was there. I am thinking 2.2 is in those files somehow but not sure.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Thank you, rnj79. That seems to be the consensus (from what I've read across three different forums) so far.

A prominent poster either on this forum or @modaco indicated that this is truly a beta build as it has some simple issues/bugs that should have been caught.

I am waiting to hear the feedback from more sources to get a good idea if this is worth getting today.
[Streak 5 General] rodjordan:
If it helps anyone. I was on EU 1.6 build 6276.

1. Install UK 1.6 4399

2. Install UK 2.1 8105

3. Flashed clockwork & amss

4. Installed dj steves 1.1.1

5. Installed dj steves 1.3

6. Installed the 3 files from dj steve

7. And now I have a fully working official Froyo!

Baseband 00

Coooooooooool or what!
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Hey, I just got up and noticed the news about the three files, just not sure where to find them?

I can start from point 6
[Streak 5 General] Bizzach:
OK guys, I hate to ask a question, because I consider myself fairly knowledgeable on this.... but....

When I follow all the directions EXACTLY as everyone here and on Modaco have done, I get an error in the command prompt. It says it FAILED - too many links.

After that I can pull the battery or do reboot, and I've even tried holding the power button and doing a factory reset. No matter what, I'm stuck at the Dell logo... I've let it sit for 20 minutes two different times. I've noticed the capacitive lights will flash a few times, every few minutes or so.

Please see my screenshot... has anyone had this error? And what could it be? I'm at a loss.... :( Steve??

Thanks in advance guys....

Here is an easy to follow guide http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/11/how-to-get-official-android-22-update-on-dell-streak.html#more
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Awesom, thanks man

A few questions to the successfully updated

1. Is battery life any better ?

2. Rotation sensor any better ?

3. Speed compaired to dfsteve build?

4. Is it worth the update?
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Yep thats a good guide thanks :)
[Streak 5 General] lufc:
Carnt say if battery is any better need a few days for it to settle in, rotation seems the same to me, speed is good and its worth a flash just to have a look:)
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Im only really nterested if two things are better

1. Battery life

2. Speed

Battery life on 2.1 was awesome, I got days.

2.2 djsteve 1.3, seems less so, maybe a day, still evaluating
[Streak 5 General] aonavy:
this rom is really laggy. i think once dj cooks something good it would be fine
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
"All I did was flash those 3 files he uploaded today. Make sure you extract those files into the same folder you have your fastboot.exe in. Put your Streak in fastboot mode and run the commands."

----------------

I don't know what is meant by "flash those ..." and what is fastboot.exe ... and what is fastboot mode ?? isn't there an upgrade for DUMMIES manual ??
[Streak 5 General] ipguy:
Not what I wanted to here, stayi.g with djs1.3 for now
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Here ya go. This was added after I did mine but this will help you!

http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/11/how-to-get-official-android-22-update-on-dell-streak.html#more

Girl Power!! LoL!
[Streak 5 General] csasek:
unzip the file to get these three files below

copy those files to where you have fastboot.exe (should be your Android Dev Kit /Tools directory)

power off your streak then power on while holding down the camera button to start Fastboot mode

touch Fastboot on the screen

Connect to your PCs USB

run these commands

fastboot -i 0x413c flash system system.img

fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn

hope that helps. i'm late for work and can't give a more in-depth answer right now
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I can't tell if mine lags anywhere. To me, it seems ok. Maybe I haven't learned what to look for yet.

At least you got it running. Thats a plus!
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
After trying to update a few times today I was just peeking into files and folders on my sd card dated today .. I found this file in a folder called /var

Any idea what this is ?? Where it would have come from? As far as I know this is a USA beta phone.

"your phone doesn't appear to be rooted. This is required to gain access to protected files and folders such as this. If you believe your phone is rooted then please email us for advice at support@speedsoftware.co.uk including details of your phone make/model and the name and version of any custom ROM you may have installed."

Ok guys, I tried the new official 2.2 from a 1.6 , 31US basband, build 6601

stuck on dell logo.

tried removing battery I can eneter fastboot, and recovery, I still only have stock recovery.

I think I may need a 00 Baseband .img, I think i have downloaded one here on xda. any idea how to flash it or update it? Or what I can do, I guess I can always try reflashing like a 2.1 etc?

please help thanks.

@chrisrotolo :

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...uide-to-upgrading-and-downgrading-the-streak/

Upgrading from AT&T 1.6 (build 6601) to O2 2.1 (build 8105)

To go from AT&T 1.6 (build 6601) we need to go to O2 1.6 (build 4399) and then upgrade to O2 2.1 (build 8105).

Download the stock recovery ROM from the first post in this thread and the official Dell ROM from here.

Rename the Dell ROM Update.pkg and copy it to the root of your microsd.

Put the recovery image you downloaded into the same folder as the fastboot.exe.

Turn off the Streak and put it in fastboot mode by holding down the camera shutter button then press and hold the power button until a white screen comes up.

Tap on the Fastboot button in the top right corner.

You will see Wait for USB Fastboot detect, wait 10 seconds and then plug in the usb cable from the computer.

The screen will then change to say Fastboot_Mode. In windows go to Start > Run... > type: cmd and hit enter.

Now navagate to the fastboot.exe file with the cd command.

When you get there type: fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.stock.img

When it says Download RECOVERY Done! on the Streak pull the battery and remove the usb cable.

Put the battery back in and hold the volume up and down buttons down while pressing the power button, it will boot into recovery menu.

Select Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD Card using volume keys and camera button to select.

>>>>>Be patient it will take a while.

The Streak will reboot and you are now on O2 1.6 (build 4399).

Now your AT&T Streak is on the same build and version of Android as the original UK O2 Streak.

If you've made it this far upgrading to 2.1 is a piece of cake.

Download the O2 2.1 (build 8105) file in this post.

Rename the file to Update.pkg and copy it over the old file in the root of your microsd.

Turn off the Streak.

Hold the volume up and down buttons down while pressing the power button, it will boot back into recovery. Be patient it will take a while.

Select Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD Card using volume keys and camera button to select.

>>>>>Be patient it will take a while.

The Streak will reboot and you are now on O2 2.1 (build 8105).

I have followed this topic to go on 2.2 v1.1.1 DJ_Steve and after followed the topic to update on 2.2 official.

And it works :)
[Streak 5 General] chrisrotolo:
thanks so much dude, really. thank you!
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
A new update now ..

There is a NEW .. DIFFERENT update now ..

Streak_309_0_00.pkg

150MB

Must have just gone up .. wasn't there 30 minutes ago.
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Does anyone know if the lcd screen density can be changed like it could in Steve`s 2.2?
[Streak 5 General] chrisrotolo:
quick question how should i move update.pkg to sdcard? fastboot??
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Where? Just when I was starting to enjoy this...
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
when I clicked "Check for update" it took me to this file ..
[Streak 5 General] ershanlakhani:
whats ur baseband?
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Yup, I can see a new file too (by looking from my PC's browser) Different file, as you said, 150MB. Loaded quick on my computer.
[Streak 5 General] avneeshshrotria:
I also got it... going to try with this one now ... unlocked 00 eu build 8116
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I think she is a lucky US Beta Streak owner :)
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
baseband gausb1a110100
[Streak 5 General] avneeshshrotria:
I have a gausb1a111800 but i can see the update with old link posted before..... with the old pkg file.
[Streak 5 General] ershanlakhani:
you know when the baseband GASUB1A110700 will come out with an update?
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I think shEEEsh is the only one that will be able to install this update. I am on 00 baseband too but don't have the Beta Streak so we'll have to wait til next week.
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
I wouldn't say lucky except I can use Tmobile. I don't have 3G and I don't have a warranty .. Dell doesn't even want to know about me or my FREE phone .. Nice people over there at Dell.. Give you an phone and say "now get lost .. don't bother us .."
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I'm hoping you're d-loading the update right now?

BTW, I have a UK unlocked version (got it from a friend) here in the US - so I don't get 3G either :(
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
I am downloading .. 40% right now .. I will come back and tell you how far I got before it crashed or bricked my phone .. Can't be an optimist when it comes to anything Dell .. I love the phone, HATE the company.
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
Here's a link to this new pkg: http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_309_0_00.pkg
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
OMG!!! I downloaded from the link and it installed!!!
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
From the link I just posted? Man mine just finished downloading, you're fast... haha What is the build number?
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I didn't do anything - no fastboot, not renaming to update.pkg...nothing - just loaded that link that was designed for the BETA Streaks and downloaded the update and it worked!
[Streak 5 General] aonavy:
does 720 cam work?

how did you install it?
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I was on 6267 Baseband gausb1a11100 (unlocked UK) and now on gausb1a130900 and build 11548
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
jeez .. my download is taking forever .. but I am downloading from my phone and NOT on WI-FI ... I am at 60% but so happy ... looks like it will work !!
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
yeah, I am on wi-fi so it was a lot faster.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Love the keyboard - it makes sounds :) need to find how to turn it off. it is so pretty!

From Dell Streak US 31 1.6 to Official Froyo 2.2

I hope this helps others:

1. I have a Dell Streak originally with Android 1.6

2. Several weeks ago I updated it to O2 2.1 using the instructions found here: http://android.modaco.com/content/d...uide-to-upgrading-and-downgrading-the-streak/

3. Today I downloaded Froyo 2.2 from http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_309_11548_00.pkg

4. And successfully applied it to my Streak using the instructions on http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/11/how-to-get-official-android-22-update-on-dell-streak.html#more

DISCLAIMER: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
You mean typing sounds? I use swype .. It is not pretty.
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Please tell me you have an Att locked with baseband31
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
Is everyone that has downloaded the latest from the "check for update" link using a Beta Streak ?? With Tmobile?
[Streak 5 General] superutp:
any idea wat will happen if i try installing on a 8105 o2 baseband ending 21..??

i have the file new pkg downloaded on my computer and wondering about the worse tht cud happen before i go for it.
[Streak 5 General] avneeshshrotria:
I just finished installing 2.2 from the new file posted by dell... i dint do anything except download an click on update . Ps from th old link posted before... i worked the 1st time.... awesome!!! I think im one of the 1st ones to get the update installed like this... im oo happy... yeah..

Im on a factory unlocked 00 eu 8116 steak... guys in India will be happy to know that...
[Streak 5 General] Trust_no1:
i'm on O2 2.1 now, do I need to flash to steve's 1.1.1 then 1.3.0 first or I can flash 3 files right away?
[Streak 5 General] aonavy:
you should be able to flash straight out
[Streak 5 General] miscom:
See my post #447. I just did that.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I think it will work on 00 basebands for sure. I am on ATT but have a UK unlocked phone (so no 3G for me in the US).
[Streak 5 General] bestrafe:
GAUSB1A110800 here.

update seems to be running in emergency mode

will post if it works

HELLS YEAH.

UPDATE WORKED!!!!

This is an OPUS Streak (Australia)
[Streak 5 General] miscom:
I have read that that is needed; however I didn't do it and it worked OK. All my apps are there! I also install z4root and SetCPU is running OK!
[Streak 5 General] Bizzach:
I'm currently on Steve's 1.3. I've downloaded that pkg file onto my computer. How can I install it?
[Streak 5 General] superutp:
ya saw tht...but I was talking abt the more recent pkg file which seems to be getting installed without any flashing??
[Streak 5 General] bestrafe:
So It's pre-loaded with swype (awesome)

I am now sooo happy :D

Thanks guys!
[Streak 5 General] homeiss:
I'm working on a method to install it, but I don't think it will be easy if it's doable...
[Streak 5 General] distortion:
Defi natly not wirking on ATT branded. Dled fine, install started fine, got 1/2 way through an install progress bar and gave me a "FOTA error" and "will reboot in 30 seconds". Rebkkted back to what I had.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
Sorry to hear that, mate. I had a feeling this would only be for 00 bands. But its a matter of time until someone will figure out a way...
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
If you are referring to my earlier post, I don't know if Swype gets installed. I have Swype from when I did a Beta test about 6 months ago. Pretty sure they aren't giving downloads any more and only one phone can use it ..

I have also another called "Slide It" keyboard. I keep going back and forth and I like Slide It better .. but Swype reads my swypes a little [not much] better.
[Streak 5 General] superutp:
bah!!...dont think it'll work on o2 branded as well...may just give it a try(as long as it doesnt brick it) or wait for someone to confirm tht..
[Streak 5 General] borijess:
Yes I would like to know this too. If it can be done on my locked Att with 1.6 and build 6601 and baseband 31?
[Streak 5 General] bestrafe:
No, it has swype (confirmed)

I am using it now, I have just updated and also the orientation settings are 500x better then the 1.6 stock rom.

Once again, Thanks for the links guys :D
[Streak 5 General] htnprm:
Based on what I've read so far, "Must already be running DJ Steve's 1.3", "I forgot to upgrade to 1.1.1 first", "My phone won't boot", etc, I'm going to wait <sigh>. Absolutely not interested in bricking my phone in any way as, if I can't get it to boot, I'd probably have to send it back to Oz for them to do anything with it.
[Streak 5 General] distortion:
Is there a way to flash a 00 rom onto a AT&T branded phone? Then I could run the update right?
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
I have been having problems with the web since updating. I get a lot of too many server redirects or something like that. What about anyone else? I am using wifi, we dont have 3g in my are so wifi it is!
[Streak 5 General] sogrady:
For those of us with an appropriate baseband / unlocked version, what's the process for installing the *.pkg file?
[Streak 5 General] shEEEsh:
I am most interested in how the phone will work .. I still used my iphone for calls because I thought the streak was HORRIBLE .. the screen would turn off etc. I heard that 2.2 would fix that problem ..

HERE WE GO .... Downloaded ... Installed ... no errors YET .. ... Rebooted and the Dell Logo is up for a while now but I am confident that it will be OK .. If I am wrong, I will be back crying in a few minutes ..

How long should it sit with just the Dell Logo showing ??

Nevermind ... YAY !!!
[Streak 5 General] Bizzach:
Well I posted a question earlier, even with a screenshot of my problem, and noone helped or even replied. Pfft!

Trying to go from 2.1 to the earlier pkg file using Steve's instructions, I had an error, which probably had something to do with my computer. I was stuck at the Dell logo, but I was able to get up to Steve's 1.3 ROM. That's where I am at the moment, but I'd like to get to the official build that was updated tonight. (I really prize battery life, and I need 720p video recording.)

Any idea how to flash that new pkg file? Do I just rename it update.pkg and go for it??
[Streak 5 General] emailtojacob:
Nice to see someone from India got the update . Me to bought from dell directly.But no update notification yet. I also checked manually for update. My base band version ends with 111800
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
I did a factory reset once it booted - just in case - it seems faster after that.
[Streak 5 General] streak4m3:
You have to type this in your Streak's browser:

http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A110100

First download, then install and finally watch :)
[Streak 5 General] rnj79:
Just saw this. Welcome to the girl streak club, LoL!
