Seeing as the streak uses msm72k,
Is anybody working on/tried running psfreedom on a streak.
I know weve only got a .2x kernel but is that what's standing in the way?

Answering my own question,it seems the kernel shouldn't affect it.
The archos 5 imt seems to have successfully had a port of psfreedom using a .22 kernel.

Hey all,
Just had a question and wasn't sure if anyone was actively pursuing this yet.
Has anyone found a way to re-enable the wifi hotspot support within the AT&T 2.2 build that was just released this last week? With one of my past Streaks I was on Dell Unlocked 2.2 build and had some hardware charging issues after putting in all that work to take a ATT 1.6 to Dell (U) 2.2. I'd really like to avoid going backwards from my new att 2.2 to just go forwards to the dell 2.2 that had some stability issues.
I am aware that everyone has different opinions on which one is better so please focus any answers around how would it be possible to restore a native froyo feature to this ATT lockware OS.
Thanks All,

it can't be done. At&t does not want you to use your phone as a wifi hotspot so they removed that feature in the phone. Only way to get it back would be to downgrade back to the stock rom you had before.
If you don't have unlimited data plan go for 340, it's fast and stable, if you have unlimited data plan 318 + performance fix is my first choice although I never had any issues with any of DJ Steve's ROMs they are all kind to my Streak and my Streak loves them back, but having read all the others are posting, would really give you second thoughts. Maybe it is just a matter of following instructions, if you didn't get it right it will be a disaster indeed. I just don't get it,English is just a second language to me but I am able to always get it right, guess that is my advantage, having English as secondlanguage.

I don't have battery issues with 318 plus the performance fix. From 24-36 hours with no problems.
My only complaint so far besides having version 1.6 is getting PdaNet to work on the Streak. Won't accept the modem driver. I had no trouble installing & using PdaNet with the Backflip, iphone3 and Sony X10 I had before this phone??? What do I do?
I like using the phone as modem in places where there is no internet.
Upgrade to 345 or DJ Steve's ROM and you'll be able to teether and be a wifi hotspot.

Is there any way I can get PdaNet to work without upgrading?
I've seen so many different ways to update etc, plus problems if you do it wrong. I'm perfectly happy with version 1.6 if I can get it tethered as a modem.
Is there any other programs like PdaNet out there?
Here is my Streaks info if someone can steer me to the correct site or link on updating to Froyo (2.2)

Anybody???
I am ROOTED if that helps any...
Let me ask this in a different way as I'm not getting any answers here yet.
Is ANYBODY using the Streak 5 on version 1.6 as a modem via usb.
If so, how did you do it?
I only have a week before my 30days is up with this phone and if I can't get it to work as a modem via USB, I will return this phone and get another brand.
Something is obviously wrong with the Dell Streak 5 as the other 6 phones I had (see my sig) had no issue using them as a modem for my laptops via PdaNet.
Do you not get the update notification on your ATT version? I just reflashed back to 1.6 from 2.2 and a couple minutes after booting I get the update notification to download build 318. If you need help getting to 318 let me know.

Nope, no update notification at all. Still stuck on 1.9 that I got from Best Buy / AT&T.
I can use all the help I can get as I'm new to this. What is 318? An update to a newer version?
I'll help in your other thread about upgrading to froyo or gingerbread.

Hello...???
I tether. I run the wireless hotspot. But I also have an unlocked Streak running the 347 ROM (Android 2.2.2). So I don't need to use a tethering app. For me, a quick trip to Settings>Wireless & Networks>Tethering & portable hotspot and I have an option to turn on both the tethering and the WiFi hotspot.
If you're unwilling to upgrade to the latest ROM, you'll have to use something other than PDANet to tether. I mentioned in your other thread regarding tethering on this forum that you should search the market on your computer for a tethering app. But installing StreakDroid would be better because it gets rid of AT&T's useless restrictions. One of those restrictions is tethering. It's disabled on AT&T ROMs.

OK, if upgrading to the latest ROM will allow me to tether using a usb to notebook and getting online with the phone I'll do it.
I find it very strange that PdaNet worked fine without any hitches with my last 6 phones, yet not the Streak. That points to Dell, not AT&T.
Dell botched the introduction of the Streak from day one. The biggest issue is that the Streak should have had 2.1 at a minimum from the first day it was sold. The only other issue I can think of, and this might be part of the reason PDANet refused to run, is that on 1.6 the Streak is, if I recall correctly, locked in landscape mode.
There is much to hold Dell responsible for. Trust me though when I say that changing the phone's ROM will make a dramatic difference.
I'm using Aura right now, and randomly my phone these past few days have been defaulting to speakerphone on when I place a call or pick up a call. It's very very irritating. I'm not sure what's going on as I haven't downloaded any new apps or anything that would affect the speakerphone. Anyone have any ideas or have come across this issue? I would like to not have to reflash everything again, but that's just me...
That's weird im running Alien Rom and it just recently started doing that to me as well.

Do you guys have GO SMS Pro? I recently got an update today which states in the chance log that it fixes this problem! Hope that helps.

I'm trying to get a grasp of what this means. Are all Tegrapart 1100's international or are some actual AT&T only? I have an Atrix that I bought directly from AT&T and I use it on their network, but it shows a Tegrapart 1100. Any rom other than stock gives me wifi problems. I've searched for this, and everyone knows how to find their part number, but the explanations are a little vague. Is there a link I missed that can explain all of this in detail?
I've got GingerMod 2.3.6 #4 on my Atrix 4G installed. with tegrapart 1100. it works just fine. No wifi problems whatsoever.
+1 somewhat confused myself as I saw a post a day or so ago about flashing either tegra 1100 or d100 I believe the choices where only gave them for orange network though

But does anyone know if you have to flash based on your tegrapart if you have an AT&T phone and use AT&T based roms? Do we use the Orange network flash or will that screw up our phones? There seems to be just enough information about it to allow us to really screw things up. I'm hesitant, but I'm gonna flash the Orange boot.img anyway and see what happens. Hopefully if it doesn't work, I can flash back.
Tegra part is old news, it used to matter but everything is universal.
All att phones are 1100 I believe but international can be one of two, it has to do with kernels not roms

Apparently you didn't read the post that is 2 above yours. I have an 1100 on ATT, and another has D00 on ATT. How can this be old news if no one seems to truly understand it. If you do, please enlighten us all. I for one, love to learn new things everyday.
Just checked my AT&T Atrix that I got on December 22nd (replaced my original one). I get tegrapart of 1100 as well.
I am running Darkside, but haven't noticed any radio issues nor have I downloaded anything special for that tegrapart (like is mentioned on Gingermod).
I'm on Darkside the version before the prefinal, and my wifi drops. My tegrapart is 1100 . I bought my phone at att in new york.
Could the tegrapart be whats causing the wifi drops? if yes what should I do ? Also what's with the ram fix and should I do it. I search and can't find straight answers or get a little confused.
If somebody tells me where i can find my tegra part i would check it.
And i have the same problem like cecesone. With Wet Dream and Dark Side i have several wifi drops.
My phone ist dach retail.

Check your device tegrapaart on this path "proc/cmdline" with a root explorer or terminal.
Mine is a Telcel (México) and is D00
I updated it from 2.2.something to the Orange FR 2.3.4
Right now, I'm just on the hunt for best ROM for my webtop, really. Gingermod looked pretty good, even if the dev was temporarily banned...
...I just don't understand this Tegrapart stuff, either. I checked which tegrapart I had with cat /proc/cmdline, and it returned "tegrapart=mbr:1100:110:800"
So I guess I have tegrapart 1100, but what exactly does that mean? I got my Atrix 4G from AT&T in the States, but Evogp put my tegrapart under "Atrix International".
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400023&highlight=tegrapart+1100
I got some serious blue balls for a cool ubuntu mod within my webtop mode ever since my webtop came in the mail. x_x I just don't want to ruin my device because I installed the wrong kernel or something.
I'm still fairly inexperienced with this stuff, even if I did get my bootloader unlocked and got romracer recovery on it. I'm currently running Neutrino EE v2.2, but if the webtop will work with Gingermod, I'm definitely going to have to switch.
OH YEAH!
And if it turns out that I do need to install the tegrapart 1100 kernel, I'm going to need a link from somebody, the one on Evogp's thread is dead. Thanks!
Heya Guys,
I'm running CM7 on my Atrix, using either MROM(hv) or Faux123 Kernels depending on my mood
I've been using android-wifi-tether, and can connect using WEP, but I've never been able to get WPA/WPA2 to work. Been doing some searching, and reading, found some similar issues, but none Atrix CM7 specific, so at this point I dont know if I'm barking up the wrong tree or not.
I'm not sure if the inability to get WPA/WPA2 to work is specific to the app, or the rom, or kernel, or some particular combination.
Any suggestions on where and/or what to look for? i.e. Where to start?
Or maybe some one can suggest and app they already know works with the aforementioned rom/kernel combinations?
Thanks for any guidance.
K
OK, so no one has a clue apparently....
Is anyone using wifi tethering on CM7 with working WPA2? If so, what app are you using? What kernel?
Thanks
K
Just tried it, works flawlessly (it's just slow, I don't have good signal here). Both open and wpa2. I don't ever use tethering so I don't really care if it works, but apparently it does.
I'm not using any app, just what's built into the ROM. I'm using MROM but not with the original kernel, I forgot which kernel I'm using. Either from official CM7 or from TopSmarts.

I must have something something hosed up somewhere then. Maybe time to give MROM a try. When you get a chance, please let me know what kernel youre using. I would think it would be OK with MROMs own kernel, but who know these days, lol.
Thanks,
K
