You shouldn't need a power button using Clockwork recovery. Best method is to install Rom Manager. It will install the latest Clockwork 3.0.0.5 and allow you to download CM7 stable as well as GAPPS.

It is pretty fool-proof.

Later versions of Clockwork only use the trackball for selecting and use the back button; I think you can also use VOL+/- to go back also.

If you want to be safe, download several roms to your SD card. Perhaps CM6, CM7, and whatever else. That way if one rom fails, you have another option.

Clockwork also has the options to mount the SD card directly from the recovery menu, so you have the option of downloading roms on your PC and transfer them over to the phone.

Hi there

Noob here

Sorry if posted the wrong place.

As the title states, how to replace the lockscreen via adb?

I accidentally patched my old lockscreen (with metamorph) with unsuitable blackbar lockscreen and now I cannot start my phone

I boot my phone (taking battery in and out many times) and still, its the same --stuck at the android boot screen and cannot do anything.

I cannot launch any application, run launcher home app.

I have a feeling that the unsuitable lockscreen i patched is the "culprit". So I wanted to disable the lockscreen and enter launcher home app successfully.

The below attachment is what I used to patch my lockscreen.

I would appreciate if anyone can provide me with original android lockscreen suitable for my U8150 or any file suitable and instructions. Thanks

Please help me or PM me. Very urgent.

Note: Did not do any backup because I cannot enter recovery mode. I cannot/don't know how to flash any boot images or recovery images. Tried button combinations, either give me a pink screen or IDEOS boot screen.

Sorry for my english!

Using Ideos-B U8150

My cousin and I went through the process of replacing the screen on his Streak tonight, the screen was so bad that it was blurry/shaky on one side and the other side was slowly being blacked out. In the end everything worked out perfectly, and my cousin is back to being one proud father, I mean streak owner.

2 Observations:

- The Phone is really only held together by Glue and Pressure. C'mon Dell...

Shoutouts:

- iFixit your awesome

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Dell-Streak-Teardown/3512/1

- ulfses your "Helpful Links/Tips" were in short, a Gold Mine.

http://android.modaco.com/content/d...co-com/322624/im-replacing-my-cracked-screen/

- eBay seller big_is your awesome as well, the part (Glass + LCD) did not take 2 months to get here like some other Hong Kong sellers, it was here in a week! (We're in Los Angeles, CA)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Dell-Mini-5-Tab...188706?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item5d2c3d88a2

Advice:

- iFixit didn't include this but the front of the screen (Gorilla Glass + LCD) literally detaches from the rest of the phone once the ribbons are unclipped, there is SO MUCH GLUE that you wouldn't realize it but it does. Also we used a box cutter to remove the Gorilla Glass from the LCD first, for us it was like slicing cake because we were merely slicing the glue that held it together on the edges. Once the Glass was off, removing the LCD from the phone was easy.

Hope this helps!

Ask the seller, thats why you have an "Ask seller a question" LINK.

When you placed the new LCD in the phone with the old Gorilla Glass, did you glue the 2 back together?

If so, what glue product did you use?
[Streak 5 General] refthemc:
The new LCD came with the New Gorilla glass piece already attached, its basically the whole screen including the glass. Double check with the seller your buying from before you purchase but the link posted in the original post should be adequate. Hope this helps.

Hi, I ordered the dell streak screen on ebay, got it delivered yesterday. Opened my dell streak, replaced the old(broken) screen with the new one, but now my device isn't booting. When you switch it on, it shows dell logo and after that its just showing black screen. I have even tried factory resetting the device, but no use. What should I do now?
[Streak 5 General] refthemc:
I would double check and make sure all the ribbons and clips were put back together correctly. They're so small it could get tricky, hope this helps!
[Streak 5 General] adonis_fiend:
Hi, Thanks for replying, but I have checked all the cables. Everything is ok but again when I am powering on the device, it shows dell logo and after that the screen goes black.
[Streak 5 General] stamosda:
hi

I had the same problem with my iphone! I replaced the screen and touch,the screen opens but stuck to the apple logo. The part to blame for this, was the touch digitizer.

When I disconnect the touch conector the phone start!See if your cell phone start without connecting the touch connector!
[Streak 5 General] adonis_fiend:
No dude...This also didn't solved my problem :(
[Streak 5 General] fventura03:
apple logo?? sounds like you had bigger issues, lol :D
[Streak 5 General] refthemc:
If it shows the Dell logo I'm assuming the screen was installed correctly, maybe you took off the Internal SD card and forgot to put it back? I'm not sure but I would go from there. Maybe even try booting into recovery and go from there as well? Hope this helps.

please :)

how can me say witch function has the connector ( white 12 pin) by the left side of the SIM Card / SD Card ? (for better orientaion: a inductive coil with stamp : 1R0 on top is direct beside)

After spending a few days with my replaced lcd on my Streak I am pretty sure that these ebay replacements are not using Gorilla Glass. Or atleast my version isn't.

I already see a small fine scratch on the glass surface which I highly doubt would happen on real gorilla glass as my original is still flawless after being in my pocket with keys ect..

Just an observation. I can always swap my original glass back if it gets any worse.
[Streak 5 General] refthemc:
My cousin hasn't reported any problems with his screen since we changed the LCD, but if anyone finds a good ebay seller that sells a good quality piece please do post. We are all here to help the community :)

I dropped my streak (inside its otterbox) and it landed in just such a way to crack the LCD while leaving the gorilla glass intact. Right now, it's spread out across my kitchen table. I ordered a new LCD and digitizer off Amazon, so hopefully when it gets here I can piece everything back together and make it work again.

Thanks for this thread and for the helpful pics.

And just for teh record, whatever they use to attack the gorilla glass to the LCD is some pretty impressive stuff.

[Streak 5 General] rptw:
today i just dropped my streak from about waist high onto concrete. the only "protection" i use is the microfiber pouch that it came with and the only damage i come out of that terrifying occurrence is a slight rip in the pouch and small dent on the bottom right part of the phone under the home button. my lcd and glass are both fully intact. when i dropped it though my heart kind of sank since ive read a lot of stories on xda about people cracking their lcd and glass from lower heights onto softer surfaces so im surprised as to how those people broke theirs but glad mine didnt
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
Mine is a couple of days short of a month old, has never been dropped, is kept in a neoprene pouch made for mobile hard drives, and has a diagonal crack across the glass. You have to look just right to see it, you can feel it with a fingernail if you know where it is. I sometimes put it in my back pocket while walking around so it has some fine scratches, but no, I have never sat on it. It looks like a stress crack and it might have been there the day I bought it for all I know.
[Streak 5 General] Rico ANDROID:
Are you planning on repairing it? The slightest fingerprint drives me nuts.
[Streak 5 General] mid_life_crisis:
I'm going to try to get it replaced/repaired. I don't expect to have much luck with that, so I'll probably order a screen assembly to have it around waiting for when the thing actually starts not working properly so I can fix it quickly.
[Streak 5 General] Shutterswipe:

Thanks for these tips. My streak was a freebie from Dell, and all they had were red ones - I really fancied a black one, so I managed to strip it down and respray it after reading this.
[Streak 5 General] gwapingn8:
Thanks, those were great help....

Finally after the strike in Canada died down..

the mail started to arrive..

and viola.. my replacement screen came along..

so, here I am... one brave soul.... trying it out..

just in the few steps I already messed up...

I have accidentally clipped the "capacitive control circuitry"

shiet, i should have read closer... but oh wells.. what's done is done..

anyways, I continued along and after close to an hour... I managed to have

not just dismantle the whole thing, but also replaced all parts back together

along with the new lcd + glass screen digitizer....

i feel proud, everything is working... EXCEPT that earlier part...

now, I am new around here and I know this might not be the forum to ask but..

is there a way to replace that part? or maybe molding/welding it back could make it work... or am I pretty much toast.... also, perhaps a program or mod to alter controls within the dell streak... perhaps changing the camera button into a home button... is that possible... please i'm stuck.

thanks in advance.

Mine shattered only the Gorilla Glass 43 days after purchase, from a mere 13 inches.... Slid out of my pocket while I was sitting in a chair, and bam. Didn't even scratch the plastic exterior... From loking around, nobody will sell the Gorilla Glass, even if I buy the screen.... Such is life, I think I might actually be gettg a replacement from Dell in the near future.
[Streak 5 General] Lerronious:
I had a similar experience; slipped out of a my pocket while sitting on the couch. LCD and digitizer are fine, the gorilla glass is shattered. It's funny that the device has lived in the Otter Commuter Case since I bought it but had never dropped it. I updated the OS about a week ago which resulted in frequent hangs. I got so irritated with having to constantly strip the case to pull the battery that I left it off this week. That'll learn me. Anyway, is it correct that the eBay item listed at the top of this thread does not have the gorilla glass? Is there a source for an OEM replacement? Thanks for the help!

Curious as to whether you were able to find a fix for the ripped capacitive control circuitry ribbon. Despite knowing full well that the ribbon was down there, I still manager to rip it in half when prying off the trim.

Failed screen replacement

My original LCD somehow cracked when it was in my pocket (I guess it was a bad idea to climb on a jungle gym with it). I could see it power on but could not make out anything on the display.

So I tried replacing my screen last night. I read all the forum posts for common mistakes, followed all the tare down instructions closely, and was extremely careful with all the circuitry.

When I powered on the capacitive buttons light up for about 3 seconds and then nothing. After the first time it didn't work I went back and reconnected everything, but had the same result.

Now I just tried to reinstall my original broken screen thinking that the new screen I purchased off of Ebay was defective. However, it seems I may have broken something since I am getting the same thing - the capacitive button lights come on for around 3 seconds and then nothing.

Any ideas on what I could have done wrong?

[Streak 5 General] fatbas202:
For what it's worth to you all, I bought a LCD replacement from user 'big_is' on ebay (as OP did) and got a well packaged and protected screen. After about a week it had a couple of black dots that appeared to be dead (not stuck) pixels. The dots grew to splotches. I contacted the guy and he sent me a new one right away and only asked for like $3 shipping. Got the new screen about 2 weeks later. I just really wish Dell hadn't put the entire phone together with glue and tape. WTF, Dell?

I don't like when people advertise on XDA, so I want to make it clear that I'm simply pointing out that this guy on ebay is a good seller, responsive, and ships a good product for a good price. I'm always leery of ebay sellers, so I hope this helps someone else that might be hesitant.

Also, I have a touchscreen/gorilla glass that I took off of the broken LCD. It works and the ribbon looks good, but I don't know how well it will attach to an LCD. If anyone is interested in it, please PM me.

EDIT: I'm seeing a lot of discussion about Gorilla Glass on here. While I don't dispute that the Streak has GG, I can say with absolute certainty that the GG on the Streak is nowhere near as tough or scratch resistant as what is on my Captivate. The streak is a great phone nonetheless.

Touch-Sensitive Circuit Found on ebay

I ended up getting the replacement screen from BIG-IS on ebay. It was a complete glass, digitizer, lcd package with associated cables/chips/connectors and worked flawlessly. While replacing the screen, I ripped an unassociated ribbon cable that connects the touch-sensitive "back/menu/home" buttons to the motherboard. It seems this f-up is common enough as now the same seller, BIG-IS, is offering the capacitive sensor package ready to stick on the back of the shroud. Like other posters have experienced, the company is responsive with quality components. I can't post the link but the item number is 120789305407. Thought I was SOL with this phone and would have to use the soft button hack.

I'm having a nightmare with screens bought on ebay... I dropped my streak around 8 weeks ago and initially had an LCD leak which turned into a dead screen after a couple of days. I ordered a replacement from a Hong Kong seller and waited for 4 weeks before canceling the purchase and ordering off a UK based seller.

My screen arrived and I fitted it using the guides in this forum. Almost immediately I noticed 1 dead pixel in the top right of the screen when it was held in portrait and reported this to the seller. This steadily got worse until it was a full LCD leak covering the top right corner of the screen.

The seller kindly sent me a replacement which I fitted on Saturday, however this morning without it being bumped, dropped our anything like that I have another LCD leak in the top right!

Anyone else having abysmal luck like that?

[Streak 5 General] Dr Doppio:
A sad day...

I had some time over during the holidays to fiddle with my Streak and had it working like a clock... until today when for no apparent reason a black border apeared around two and later three of the edges of the screen. After tryiing to "fix" it I eventually realized that the Gorilla glass had detached from the LCD, thus preventing the underlying pixels from working properly (some are stuck on always on, some are dead). In fact, it appears (and I may be wrong but I doubt it) that the bond between the glass and the LCD is essential for the proper light polarization and thus function of the LCD.

I have already ordered a replacement screen and will hopefully be able to install it correctly.

Some observations from disassembling the Streak:

1. It looks like there is no way to treat separately the glass and the LCD -- so those of you looking for a way to replace just one of these parts, give up and buy the combo. The glueing of the two is non-trivial and probably can only be done in the factory (and I wish it was done stronger for my Streak :(

)

2. I was shocked to find out that the body of the Streak is plastic! Honestly I believed it was steel (I have the red model).

3. It was fun to see the internal microSD card, and how easy ot is to take it out. It will be interesting to know if one can replace it with a bigger capacity one, or if one can take it out to back up or modify the system by mounting the card on a Nix system (i.e. without having to root the Streak).

Anyway, thank you all for the great advice on this thread, I am now going to sleep knowing that I will wake up VERY depressed, not being able to use my Streak for quite some time...
[Streak 5 General] marvin02:
See this thread at MoDaCo and this one at XDA.
[Streak 5 General] Dr Doppio:
Thanks, I didn't realize this had been explored to such depth. Cutting through the plastic to gain permanent access to the internal sdcard is just brilliant!

This device has so much potential... I'd be crushed if it turns out that I cannot fix mine...
[Streak 5 General] alperin1:
I did the upgrade by cutting the plastic and installing a 4gig of memory, nothing more I had to do but boot up and the card was formatted and ready for me to install what ever ROM I wanted.

As for the LCDs, yeah it would be nice if the LCD and Gorilla glass had a better bond, I have replaced my several times and not once has anything been cracked/broken. I only had the two items separate and cause me to replace them.

[Streak 5 General] Dr Doppio:
can anyone suggest a double-sided tape that I can use to replace the tape holding the plastic covers below and above the screen? Preferably one that is similar to the original, which was quite strong...
