[Q] Help: about Streak system language - Streak 5 Android Development

Firstly, I heard from someone that some US version Streak has the "chinese" in local language option...so I wonder if I can do something to achieve this function??? My Streak is UK(unlock) version...
many thanks for the comments in advance!

I am also looking at for the same thing I have a UK sim free Streak and I would like chinese on it too.
I was surprised by not having it. It should be a standard like the iphone.

Yes, I'm really sad that may have to wait for the “ROM”。。。

Opps 2.1 on Dell streak

Recently I am going through almost all the post regarding Dell streak. And at Madaco there was this newbie who claimed to have 2.1 on his streak ( now that sound funny), a newbie with 2.1 lol  anyways I think almost everyone including some senior members may I include Paul as well  have given him hard time .Finally every one asked him to post the pictures of his streak and guess what he posted his dell streak.
Everyone’s jaws are still on floor
Here is the link http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-2-1-for-streak-is-coming-closer-than-before/
Sorry for being sarcastic
Edit Just checked it this guy even said i have Built 6267 1.6, he put pics of that as well
http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/314140/new-rom-v-6267/
I think this guy is 2 steps ahead from all of us or may be 3 people who are still on 3xxxx
He said he has a friend who is working on the Streak development team. Seems pretty legit to me.
Don't count on him leaking it though as he "doesn't want to ruin his friends career", which is pretty good of him tbh. I don't think i'd have that level of self control

Considering the Dell Streak Development team consists of about 8 people, don't you think it would be Dell's priority to see which dev's friend is leaking images? They did say they are active on websites concerning the Streak.
I wouldn't have that level of self control. Release it please!

That is the great thing about HTC their images leak on purpose.... Dell is not handling this well at all, but what choice do we have for a 5" device?
Dell Streak "UI Team" has 8 people. His contact could be someone from one of many, many people working on the Streak.
why do the only allow six icons on 2.1
Creating system.img for 2.1, is it possible?
Is it possible to create a system.img based on 2.1 or 2.2 from android sources for Dell Streak? Has anybody tried it? I don't need the Google propietary parts, just to OSS part...
Has anybody tried? Any reference docs for it?
Thanks in advance,

I'm trying it now again, now I'm back..
I'm trying the codearoura git, basic instructions on their site..
https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/
also have a look at the cyanogenmod wiki for some decent building instructions, that can be adapted.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Building_from_source
plus theres this
http://pdk.android.com/online-pdk/guide/build_system.html
so far not playing nicely, and progress is hampered because I can't get fastboot boot to work (which is a way of temporarily flashing a kernel and ramdisk) so I have to manually flash the boot.img every time it doesnt boot.

[Q] How does the dell streak lock actually work?

So I bought my PayG Streak from 02 the other day.
I knew it was locked to 02 but I figured someone smart enough here would find an unlock.
I have the mental capacity to take on such a task myself but Ive never attempted it before.
I put a T-mobile sim into my streak and it asks for network unlock but if i Hit cancel it takes me straight into my fully working phone (bar the sim).
So my question is, How is the Dell streak locked? Is it via a chip or piece of hardware inside the device? or is it purely based on the ROM side of things?
Considering I can get into the phone and use wifi etc without the sim would it be possible to create a bit of software that executes and enables the sim to work? every time you reboot the device per say).
And Is anyone in here actually working on this? I'd like to know to share idea's on exploiting the device to allow any sim.

Checked and there is nothing regarding unlocking Dell Streak.
Just spam from spences10
PS: admins delete please this advertisement.
No it doesn’t say anything about unlocking the DELL Streak but it does explain the difference between ‘root’ and ‘carrier unlock’ maybe I should have been a bit more specific in my reply, I am in no way affiliated with www.theunlockr.com and was just trying to be helpful as I recall an explanation between the two on there.
I could only put up the main site as that is all I could remember if it wasn’t any help next time try this www.Google.com

Hang on a minute youth, thats a bit harsh! If you go to 'Unlock my phone' they tell you they can unlock almost and phone. Its definately not spam! Its definately worth a try contacting these guys to see what they can do for us Streak owners.
Well done spences10, thanks for contributing to the community

to streak or not to streak

hey guys, hopefully this isnt a repost of a common older thread that i couldnt find. im new to android and have only been playing around on friend's devices and i've finally decided that i need a new phone. i'm currently using a nokia n95-3, very good device despite its age. i've read a lot of reviews on the streak and there are quite a few mixed reviews out there.
so the reason for my post here is to find out, should i get a streak. the reasons i like it right now is the screen size and android. and what i'm looking to ask you guys is what is your most favourite thing about the streak and also you biggest grievance with it. i figured coming here to ask would be best since everyone is a streak user so please also include the length of time you have been using or used the streak. thanks for your help guys and look forward to the input.

[Q] Dell Venue WP7?

Hi there!
I've been asked myself a question and now I'd like to hear some of your ideas about can Dell Venue run WP7 instead of Android?
I'm really interested in this question.
So, if it's so, maybe someone could port firmware from Venue Pro to Venue.
Waiting for your answers
Interesting question. I also realized that DVP and DV has the very very similar hardware info! So, I also wonder whether we can install WP7/7.5 in this Venue!

AT&T Languages vs Rogers Languages

Hey all, looking into buying my wife a Lumia. She's Finnish, and therefore prefers Nokia phones, however, the last time she went to buy a Nokia, of the ones available at the time, none in the US had Finnish as a selectable language. She called Nokia Finland directly on this, and pretty much cursed them up a storm for half an hour about how a Finn, living in the US, can't get Finnish, on a phone made by a Finnish company. She was pretty pissed.
So, she got the iPhone, because it had Finnish as an option. It's not that she doesn't speak and understand English, she just wants her phone in her native language. That was 5 years ago.
Well, it's about time to upgrade again, and while we were looking at the iPhone again, I'm also looking at the Lumia's. Only problem is, I cannot find, anywhere, a list of the languages available in the standard AT&T US Firmwares. It's not published anywhere that I can find.
I have read that the selection is 'limited' and that Rogers has 'all of them, including polish', but that doesn't tell me which ones are in either.
Mainly, I would like to know if Finnish is available in the AT&T US Firmware, and if not, is it available in the Rogers? And how complicated is reflashing it from the former, to the latter. Never owned a windows phone before, but I'm not a stranger to jailbreaking iPhones or rooting/unlocking/etc Androids. Just haven't had hands on a windows phone yet.
If anyone has just a plain list of all the Languages available in the different firmwares, I think that would work out best for everyone. Barring that, if you have one of these phones, can you just post what languages are available in your version? Thanks
Just checked my ATT 920 and Finnish isn't listed. Sorry. Perhaps a call to Nokia to see if there is a language pack.

I see Suomi listed, on the Rogers Lumia 920, I believe that is Finnish. I believe the development area has flashing instructions.

Thanks for the feedback Demon Fox. ( you're talking about att version right?)
I had the 900 and I sold it for that reason, No Arabic Keyboard input even after the so called 7.8 update( the UI not important for me ). Many people were talking about language packs but no actual "tutorial" or even a hint on how to extract or merge the language packs with a current WP OS.
