ermmmmm thanks fard for the update but i am not too sure with 2.1 update as i have a question
can we still add homescreens? like in 1.6
when i downloaded the pkg file,i must put on sd card and i must rename the file?
dont think I made this clear enough!
THIS IS FOR 21 baseband streaks UK
rename to update.pkg
boot into stock recovery (clockwork doesnt recognise .pkg files)
yes its 2.1
yes it has scrolling backgrounds not like the 1.6 so one image, 5 screens..
and live wallpapers
it also has 720p recording, but looks like 8fps !

Doesn't work if you bought your streak from Dell website.
I think I will just wait for an OTA update, but will it work since I m using my Iphone 3gs contract sim as i brought my streak from Cpwh outright on launch.
Please let me know if not i will just stick a pay & go sim on my streak to recieve the update then stick the 3gs sim back into the streak after thats done
I have just finished downloading it and I'm flashing it now, I will make a rooted update.zip of 2.1 for our non UK friends.
been into the o2 store today on my lunch to play with the streak... said there was an update adavilable and to connect to wifi to download it. guess o2 are pushing this out OTA now?
Any news on getting the 1.2 update to work on unlocked dell streaks? i.e the ones bought directly from dell and not through carphone warhouse or o2?
Just d/l the update and stick it on you sd card, it will work perfectly!

Me too, so youre in the states right? Did you get a triangle with an exclamation mark in it in the notification bar?
Because thats what happened to me, when I go to about phone and try the check for updates nothing happens - have toy tried this?
Thanks.
Yes, im in the states. When i tried to download the update from the phone it takes me to the update site, let's me start the download but the progress bar never moves lol. Then it says download unsuccessful. Tried using wifi but still no dice. The update server might be down. I hope it's froyo...
I wish it would be but I'm 100% sure it's not.
It's way too soon for Froyo to arrive as Eclair isn't even officially out yet.
And considering how long it took for Dell to make an Eclair ROM, I'm sure it's not Froyo, but maybe the official Eclair?
The download address seems strange to me.
I can't even start the download. Server timeout

By stock recovery, you mean no custom bootloader? All I did was root and go thru fastboot (volume up and power on) with update.zip with 2.1 (O2 version) and update from the zip. Hit the camera button to confirm update.zip.
so is it true 2.1 is officially out?

Koush's recovery seems to be the only custom recovery on the Streak so far. If you last flashed that they you have a custom recovery. Based on your statement above, you should be ok.
I figured a lot of people want this instead of a nandroid backup so here you go. You're all welcome. Be aware that you will need to upload the fixed build.prop (recommended for US users) and change the boot animation (optional). Unpack the zip file and use stock recovery to flash this update.
My OEM version is GAUSB1A120521-US
Password is streakthis

Can this be used on an O2-UK Dell Streak?
If so can we n00b's have a little guide?
Im desperate to get official 2.1, thanks!
Yup, it's from O2 as you can see in the screenshot.
as simple as dropping it on the sd card then?
No special build.prop adjustments? (<--the scary part for me)
Yup, absolutely. You don't have to edit the build.prop since you have O2 anyway. It's only for US users so it will reflect the US paid apps.

Not really, could just root with Universal Androot after flashing it?
I'm waiting for someone else to confirm this is legit though
Universal root works. I've had this update running for a week now.
Wow, really?
Is it worth flashing over the previous 2.1 rom?
I took the leap for everyone and it does indeed install. I have only had it running for a few minutes but it does seem a little faster than the beta. Hard to believe this is the official as there is still no way to use the front facing camera in the camera app unless i am missing something.
What else do you guys want me to check out?
Let me know I'll try it
I currently have the 6941 build. I have the At&t US version streak. If I update to this will this cause me any issues? I'm also rooted.
Mine's rooted and the front camera still can't be used unless i open fring or qik.

Which is why I question if this is the official update. Any reason for you to think it is? Or just guessing?
Any thing else that doesn't work from 1.6 to indicate it may not be official? I only used 1.6 for about 5 minutes so it is hard for me to compare.
its official from 02
Check the screenshot. It's official from O2. How many times do i need to repeat that? I got the notification as well.

There were others at Modaco that got update notifications for the 7546 package but that didn't make it official. I am just asking how you are confirming this is official or what about the about screen makes it official.
And I like I said I upgrade to it and it for sure is an update and seems to be running fine.
On the leaked update there is no trace of any brand support whatsoever. This one had a link to the O2 support site. I had to confirm it from an O2 rep. Yup, it's legit. Funny how they still didn't fix the front facing camera. In 2.2 perhaps? By the way, don't look at my about screen.. I'm talking about the screenshot on my first post.
Shows 353_15697_31.pkg assume build 353, kennel 15697 won't put it on my phone but if anybody wants let me know what to do.
Even though the update page says it's 2.2.2 internally it's still 2.2 and it doesnt have new stage ui
it must have been a simple copy/paste off 351's update page
So delete it?
Here's the recovery

There was a post by Jen @ streaksmart, that possibly the 353 update is for LOCKED at&t streaks? They will stay at 2.2
Well I installed this today and my reception seems to have suffered pretty badly. I think I'll be rolling back to the earlier version.

How does this get used?
hi am new to the atrix, recently got upgrade from orange, use to have G1 and a wildfire (buzz)
info
model MB860
Firmware 2.2.2
Build OLYEM_U4_1.3.1
Rooted using Gingerbreak
Custom recovery installed
i see confusion on the forums for orange uk users.
can you guys clear up for me whether i should downgrade to 2.1.1? and whether or not the gingerblur/greyblur is compatible?
can i flash themes without being on 2.1.1 and which themes should i look at?
can i get 1080 recording?
any other info that you can provide also please?
Thanks guys, sorry if it seems noobish, just dont wanna brick (mrs will be mad at me lol)
i my self flashed gingerblur 3.1 then 3.5 straight over via sd card with the boot recovery menu
however i had a few networking issues which was fixed once i entered my correct apn details
but still seemed to have slow speeds with my data and navigation app was a no go as the data speeds were too slow... custom themes worked great i have since reverted back to stock rooted and my issues are now fixed... hope this helps in what yourlooking for

Hi,
I'm updating the thread, that means waiting for an upload to finish. It adds in everything to get back to stock in one CWM zip, radio and bootloader. The unlocked and fixed zip should be done immediately after in the same CWM recovery session to keep the unlocked bootloader, ram fixed CWM recovery, and ram fixed 2.2.2 boot image. Otherwise you have to reflash IHOP to get the unlocked bootloader back and reflash CWM recovery.
Now, you have to ask yourself if you want to be stock when the final Bell update isn't even out yet.
EDIT: Thread updated
Cheers!
So when the final Bell update, i.e. the official Gingerbread update for the Bell Atrix is released, we won't need all these fixes and such since it will be a stable version? Also, would I be able to update ota without the aformentioned core apps I uninstalled or would it be more wise to stick to custom roms? Thanks.

Hi,
I have no idea how good the official Bell gb will be, the Leak is good. OTA may or may not patch those files, most likely it would.
If you mean AT&T firmware when you say custom roms that's up to you. It's nice to have the option not to use that., for that reason, all the patches. I haven't patched anything with the bell gb leak, works fine. By default it includes several features AT&T folks have to hack in. Not perfect but it's less work.

Hi,
It is volume down when you turn the phone on, says fastboot, click vol down until it says android recovery, then vol up. You have to be unlocked of course, and CWM installed.
If you are doing both at the same time, just 222 gobstopper and then 234 gobstopper which includes the ram fixes. Sometime when I get a chance I'll add in a few partitions to 234 to avoid the 222 step, slow upload connection here. (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9 are the partitions left out of 234) And I am not sure if it's needed going from Froyo to Froyo.
Cheers!
Thank you....I see in your Gobstopper GB2.3.4 link that you are updating////
(Not a problem, Testing now, Will upload immediately after. So another 3.5 hours or so it will be done. lol
I included the multitouch hack and the rest of the partitions, so once it's done you won't have to go back to 2.2.2 for any reason to install it.) should I wait for this 2.3.4 to install, but I will still need to get back to stock2.2.2 first right??? or will I just have to use your updated GB2.3.4??????? thanks again dill......will be donating to u for sure......Oh and I read somewhere about deleting (install-recovery.sh) in system-etc if its there....and it is???
