htcjikelly: Good to hear :) I can't wait!!

I have to ask a couple things....

Which build did you start with?

&

Which method did you use to root it/get su?

&

What did you use for a terminal emulator?

&

At which point did your baseband number change to 00?

&

Did you get the flashing LEDs after moving to 4399?

I have just done a factory reset (after moving to 4399) to see if that helped with getting su but no go. This is very frustrating, I'm no dunce but right now I feel like I am missing something really simple... :(
[Streak 5 General] htcjikelly:
I started with the 6601 build and it seemed to work with the minor issue of needing to manually copy the files to system and etc folders from the ones you download.

I entered *#*#307#*#* in the dial pad (like you are calling it) then I could install the Universal Androot app from my SD card. Once the phone was rooted I could then do everything else.

I just typed Terminal Emulator into the market search and downloaded like the first one listed. It was free and it did what I needed.

I didn't get the flashing lights after the upgrade to 6267 build. Once I had upgraded to that build my number with to 00.

Then I did the second update to 2.2 and it all works!!

Now I'm trying to figure out how to prevent the exchange mail server from accessing my data to delete it as they see fit.
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
flashing leds means that you have the wrong upgrade file to 2.1
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Thanks

but I'm not upgrading to 2.1 :( I tried going from 6601 (att 1.6) to 4399 (O2 1.6) using this guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=805112

After that I get the flashing lights on build 4399

Deciding to press on, I did a factory reset and followed this guide: http://android.modaco.com/content/d...how-to-install-official-dell-2-2-upgrade-pkg/

I get to step 13; typing su in a terminal emulator and I get 'permission denied'. I have entered the code and rooted with Universal androot 1.6.

As far as I can tell, I have followed the guides to the letter... a few times. Besides the file the post links to being corrupted (doubtful) what could I have done?
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
After a bit of fiddling I have a properly rooted 4439 now :) but when I try to flash to 6267 (step 16) the updater can't see the sdcard :(

Getting close though :)
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
if you need the 2.2 you can just fastboot the "official " files found at modaco, no point in going through the hussle with patch updates, as this is why it fails in most cases.

androot needs to be applied twice sometimes . better way is to use a pre-rooted loader. http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-stuck-on-dell-logo-after-2-1-update-o2-only/
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
thanks da_jojo, but I'm trying to get onto the 00 baseband so I don't have to use a carrier-build.
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
hence i suggested for you to fastboot these files http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/323561/official-2-2-froyo-untouched/
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
I had avoided that one after some bad reports going from 1.6. As per other reports it has hung me on the Dell logo.

Reading through the thread it seems I have to just keep trying till it works :(
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
should work.. just fastboot these files in the order described and when finished do a hard-reset to flush cache and rebuild the internal sd-card
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
There are two orders mentioned in the thread. I have tried both twice, with a factory reset each time. I have also tried putting the battery in while holding pwer a few times. Still nothing but Logo :(

It is encouraging that some people are getting it after doing it over and over, but I have to go to bed and I need it tomorrow for work. Do you know if there is an image file for 4399 that I can roll back to for now?
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
sure, here you go :)

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-4399-update-still-android-1-6-now-available/
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Thanks :)

But arn't I sposed to use a system.img? I cant boot the phone to put in a new pkg on the sdcard
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Thanks for the help da_jojo, but to anyone else looking to upgrade from 1.6 to 2.2... do not use the method suggested above! You may be lucky, but from what I can tell it will just leave you with 5" Dell billboard.

No matter how many times I reflashed, and factory reset all I get is Logo. As for rolling back, without the equivalent system.img, boot.img and amss.mbm there is nothing I can do untill I find someone with a MicroSD reader, even then I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work.

If anyone has recovered from the Logo issue, I would love to know how you did it :)
[Streak 5 General] mezmemore:
Just wanted to say that I was running 2.1 O2 (b8105) and flipped over to 1.6 O2(b4399) just to step up to 2.2. I am so glad this thread was posted. It helped a TON.

homeiss did a huge amount of work on his walkthrough. I'd like to thank them for that.

Like a couple of other folks, I also had to use a different recovery.img than the one listed but I picked up the right recovery for me by a previous poster.

I kept running into the FOTA error if I used the one provided in the guide.

I just wanted to post that I felt it was an easy upgrade following his walkthrough. It's great running the new Dell 2.2 Official release.

Great job again homeiss

thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
[Streak 5 General] Wizard8125:
Has anyone been able to upgrade a white Dell streak? If so how? Im on my third one, I've upgraded a black one before so it's not like I can't follow instructions it's just the white ones seem to have a different path or something... Nothing seems to be working.
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Following up from mezmemore, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has helped so far.

I know that the walkthrough has helped heaps of people, homiess has done a great job. I'm just frustrated that I am one of the few who seems to get stumped at every turn. Whether or not its through a fault of my own, I don't want to sound ungrateful to anyone here.

No one owes me anything and I have no illusion's otherwise :)

That said, I just bought a micro SD card reader and I think I finally have it sussed, I am goign to roll back to 4399 (o2 1.6), then up to 8105 (o2 2.1) then do the fastboot flash to 2.2. I'm pretty sure it will work this time. And will get back to you with the results :)

[Edit:] 2.2!!! woooooo :) If only I knew that I would have to update the firmware on my rebelsim before I could use it. nb to the wary, if you are using rebelsim II be sure to update it to the 1.3 firmware (currently beta) before going to 2.2.

Thanks to everyone. For me it was alot harder than it seems it should have been but it is done :D
[Streak 5 General] da_jojo:
great to hear that your back n running again :)

if you would have mentioned the rebelsim we could have told you it wouldnt work with 2.2 , it was mentioned on their website.
[Streak 5 General] djruckuss66:
How does one get from the 6601 31 baseband to the 00 baseband?
[Streak 5 General] ervin10:
i have the same question as djruckuss66, im debating to go from my iphone 4 to the streak I miss android. And was wondering if I purchased the streak at Bestbuy which is locked if i could flash bb00? sry if this has been asked before just havent been able to find a answer most forums are for the EU version.
[Streak 5 General] ghostcorps:
Yeh sorry about that... my bad. I didn't even think about it. I ended up buying the unlock code, I had had enough fiddling to last me a while :)

Thanks again
[Streak 5 General] treylemkn:
Root on 2.2?

I rooted my Streak to the unlocked 00 froyo build last night. I'm trying to root the phone and universal androot doesn't seem to work. Has anyone else noticed this? Has anyone been able to gain root access?

I also want to thank Homeiss. I don't think I could have downgraded and upgraded my phone without his walkthrough. Nice work!
[Streak 5 General] ronj1986:
Use z4root app in the Market to gain root access.
[Streak 5 General] treylemkn:
Thanks! That worked perfectly!
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Crimton:
This game works pretty good: http://www.appbrain.com/app/my-paper-plane-2-lite-(3d)/com.wavecade.mypaperplane_x_lite not the best game but its ok.
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Lancealot:
I've tried this game on CM6.1 with the TnT kernel. There seems to be a problem where the axes are off by 90 degrees in a number of games, including this one. Were you having the same issues and if not, what is your setup? Thanks and cheers
[G Tablet Themes and Apps] Crimton:
it did seem to be a little off....i thought maybe i was just horrible lol. i'm trying to find a fun game that works good on this device.
[General Questions and Answers] Jens Erlend:
I can't download apps from the app-market, when the downloas should start it does'nt. It stop at the message "starting download".

Zwhen I downloas a apk file from the web, I can downloas and install the application as normal.
[General Questions and Answers] zagorteney:
Hello there!

I think that I have a solution for all of you. I had a market problem with stuck on downloading apps on 3g. I've tried almost any solution find on internet.

So. Go to Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names and tap on the selected APN. Erase proxy number from it. Save. Restart. Voila.

Regards.

P.S. If it doesn't work, you can easily put proxy back. It is needed only for wap.
[General Questions and Answers] zagorteney:
Sorry! Doubling again.
[General Questions and Answers] Jens Erlend:
It didn't work, I cannot download connected with wifi either. I git a x10 mini pro.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theorginazation:
After installing the Obsidian on my phobe, I can no longer download anything from Android market. I could download when I was on bionix fusion. I searched for a solution but nothing I tried worked. I was thinking this is happening because the vibrant isn't supposed to have froyo yet.

Does anyone have a solution for this?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Clear the data for the market app
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theorginazation:
I tried clearing the data for the market and download manager and signing into Google talk but none of these worked.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demize!:
OK I'm having a similar problem. Does it happen on wifi or just 3G? Do a speedtest. It.may be because market servers are loaded due to the maps updates.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demize!:
I have a feeling my data has been throttled. Will update...

Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fflegend85:
I have this issue pop up sometimes. Usually the app will download, and then go to installing, and then just sit there and not do anything. Usually if I cancel it and try it again it will work but sometimes I have to do it multiple times.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C-4Nati:
This is a problem on EVERY custom ROM for some reason, go to the market and type "eris market fix", ironically enough that WILL download. Then proceed from there and your market should work now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demize!:
Thanks I'm going to keep that in mind for future reference. It.turns out they were throttling me. Got a text "due to excessive data.usage your thouroughput speed will be capped until next billing cycle" Funny cleared right up as soon as I paid my bill.

Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theorginazation:
Can someone PM me a mirror to the Eris fix app because I can't download that either.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] T.P.:
]I have Visionary r10 installed and have downloaded r11. The r11 .zip file that I downloaded includes several files and folders, but no .apk file. What do I need to do to install r11 over r10? Many thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstmcarr:
Not sure what this is but am getting this an various other Kineto (wifi calling) errors.

Am on a non rooted OTA build. Even reset phone to factory settings and reran logcat.

Any help would be appreciated.

Final note have never even fired up wifi calling since factory reset.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstmcarr:
Any help would be appreciated. Have a few days left in remorse period and if this ends up being a hardware issue I would like to be able to find out before it ends.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sstmcarr:
ok, obviously nobody has any idea what the hell is going on or are too busy answering the 15th thread asking the same questions about how to root a phone:mad:. So, can anyone else at least run a log and see if they too are getting errors from E/Kineto

Would be a BIG help :D
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cparekh:
Yup. Getting the same errors.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fnerg:
I'm getting the same error. It makes it really annoying to develop on this device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] p50kombi:
Been waiting for this.

Think you can make a version that links to softkey only and not to power button?

that would be great...Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
It's done :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] p50kombi:
yeah.....

thanks ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Fishawy:
Looks great, will test it .. Thank you :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
Skrobel, congratulations on your release.

I will be glad to test your preliminary version, let's see what you did improve since the last version I tried.

Some suggestions and tips if I may:

- Do not use text files to store settings like links etc. Registry is a more convenient method IMHO.

- Try to ensure support for more then one language.

- Do something with the loading time (I know this probably requires programming language change), quick! Like I said in our last conversation about this program, hiding the window and showing it when it's needed should help greatly.

One important question: What about ROM cooking? Are chefs allowed to cook this program into their ROMs?

Regards,

Jackos
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
PS What about graphics? Maybe something more TF3D/Sense like?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Thanks, I appreciate your hints and help :)

According to the B4PPC support forum the loading time when the app is starting from "0" will not be better at all. I did everything I could to make the app lighter (use only one external library, don't use text labels, use only only one image for the whole form). But it didn't improve the loading time much though...

I already have a version which loads into memory at system startup but it has some annoying limitations connected with the programming environment.

I.e.:

The only way to actually load all the elements (images, controls) into memory is to show the app. So at startup I must actually show the app at least for 10 ms and then trigger the "ShowTodayScreen" procedure to hide it. And during system startup any graphics I'll try to show appear incomplete and for long time (until Sense shows).

Another problem is that there is no "minimize" procedure. Only the above mentioned ShowTodayScreen which always returns to Sense. If the user would run the ActionScreen in order to run a new window (such as new SMS) it's not a problem. But if you want to trigger the BT or WiFi, returning to HomeScreen every time is annoying.

Third problem is that even when the app runs in background it still takes over 600-700 kB which I consider as large for so light image it actually is. Furthermore I noticed strange behaviour when ActionScreen is not used for longer time. It takes more and more memory over time (a memory leak?) and "refreshes" itself when it's actually called.

Buuut

in this situation the form shows within half a second.

Language and GUI is on the "to do" list as soon as I will handle the above problems. Actually changing the gui is very simple (there are no graphics merged in the exe, only external ones). But I'm totally not creative when it comes to graphics. That's why I asked for help in the first post.

Finally:

Everybody is welcome to use this program in their ROMs. Just drop me a line that you plan to do it and it would be nice if you referred to this place in your ROM thread but with such small app is absolutely not demanded.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kain144000:
@ Skrobel Any chance of my makin' an 18-button ver, a la wedge666's offering here? He, however, doesn't have landscape support. Your app's lack of buttons is the only thing stopping me from hoppin' on-board.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
The problem is that the more controls on the form, the longer time the app needs to start.

So technicaly it's possible and relatively easy, but in the current app state I would like to handle all my problems first to be able to hold the program in the memory. Then addidg or moving controls will really be easy. Plus I will add the possibility to configure the icons and programs yourself so that everybody can customise it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
Hi Skrobel,

the landscape support is a very good idea. And since i use the HD2 and the TP2 i have missed this on my HD2. But the HD2 can handle landscape with a manila tweak well. Also in combination with the CHT Suite.

We, the CHTA beta team, can help you with a layout for CHT default and for the simplicity quicklinks. That's my personal favor style.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Hi Mike,

Am I to understand that you somehow forced the original ActionScreen to work in Landscape mode? Or at least to appear on full screen?

Thank you very much for the hint. I know these icons from Seem's ROM, but I didn't know these are his design. I like them too. And the way they behave when pressed.

oOadditional designs or to the beta team (that means you in this case;) )?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
No, he just has a tweak in with he rotates the screen in HD2. His Action Screen doesn't support landscape ditto and that's the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
On the STOCK ROM it is working well without any issue. The latest Rom is: (please see my signature).

No i mean the team. We are around 10 guys here from XDA. And the most of them are known from other things ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
Ach, we misunderstand ourselves :)

I meant that you where using another ActionScreen (probably from Smabergs) and it didn't work well in landscape.

Skrobel's version does work very well in both portrait and landscape.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike2nl:
:D now i get it...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Hello all

After a long while I updated the program. Actually it's whole new app rewritten from scratch. Details in post #1. Changelog and downloads in post #2.

Enjoy!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
yay! Wonderful! Let me check this out!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Hello again,

I have found a solution for my minimize problems. Updated version in post #1.

Still if somebody can show me how to make the app more memory-friendly, I'll be grateful.

Take care :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
It doesn't show up and minimize anymore? How did you do this on the code side? May I have a look? Just my personal curiosity.

Once again, is it ok to include this in ROM?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
Feedback to version 0.3:

Don't write version number in application name

AppToDate support?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
It actually does show up but it's completely black wihout controls. And this time it really minimizes after 100 ms.

And the solution was... stupid. I still use the method imported from coredll.dll, but just before I minimize the app I switch the window from "Maximized" to "Normal" and switch the MinimizeBox on. Then, when my "minimize" fires, it is equal to tapping the OK button in the top right corner (They call it SmartMinimize I think). It's unnoticeable to normal user.

OFC, you can include this in the ROM if only you think the app deserves it. Sorry for not being quick enough to have this version ready before releasing of your 1.0.1.

Ad.1: Yes, you're right. I noticed that the installer doesn't uninstall the previous version if the cabinet name is different... Will be done in next release.

Ad.2: didn't think about that. Not sure how shoud I do it, but I'll look at it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
1) No problem, still waiting for the app to become more memory friendly and apptodate enabled.

2) AppToDate support is quite simple, you can do it even without programming skills (all can be done in a cab file). You just need a server on with you will store the xml file. Still cannot believe that this isn't viral - such a easy method to keep all apps updated X_X This should be a must for any application!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
OK, I see how AutoUpdate works. It will be included in my next release.

BTW. Perhaps you should make your ROMs AppToDate enabled?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
See, so simple as that?

BTW. I was thinking about that, but a rom doesn't match the prerequisites. For example apptodate has a option to download the new cab file, while a rom isn't that easy download-able.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
That's why AppToDate supports non-downloadable content. In these cases it only works as a Notification holder. Have a look here:

http://www.modaco.com/content/appto...-support-roms-major-upgrades-etc-screenshots/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
If this is true... You got me. Definitely.

Sry for offtopic.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jackos:
OK, rewrite this program in C++, register the startup program as a service (so it doesn't take a slot) and it's going to be the best ActionScreen ever. Anything else is PERFECT. Ach, still waiting for icons to fit Manila.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] swiss420:
Nice work. Maybe if you get a chance make a version were the green is changed to blue for EnergyROM compatability. :) I am stuck on Android right now but as soon as possible I will flash back to see if I can change that myself and or if you can use any help with some graphics work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
I think the graphics will change to more "Manila Style" as soon as I will get an answer from CHTA Beta Team. Then they will fit any Sense ROM I think.

I'm definitely not a graphic editor, so If there is anybody who could help me with drawing different icons I will be grateful. In the mean time everybody is welcome to change the link icons manually (all the image files are stored as separate "LinkXX.png" and "LinkXX_Pressed.png" in \Program Files\ActionScreen\).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] EgorLev:
WiFi toggle doesn't work for me. In ammar_12_button_HD_action_screen_v1.1.cab no such problem. Am I doing something wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Skrobel:
Hello,

Thanks for the input.

Can you check if a file "Wifi_ON-OFF.exe" exists in your \Windows\ folder?

And furthermore could you check your registry in the following key:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\Link07

there should be a value:

"Path" = "\Windows\Wifi_ON-OFF.exe"

This is the default value and it works in my Rhodium. Oh, and which version of the cab file are you testing?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lakov:
HELP!!!

Hi. I have HTC HD mini flashed with RUU_signed.nbh. Since I installed the Skrobel_Actionscreen_v0.3 I cannot use the phone. It is stuck in the start screen. What can I do except re-flash it? If I do hard reset I will get its original language Korean/Chinese...? Or would it be in the european languages after my first flash? Any other solution???

Please please help.
