Hey I was having a quick look at the desire hd and i was wondering if it would be possible to get the new htc sense with full landscape support on the Streak?
I was going to pick one of these up when they hit Best Buy this month and was thinking the same thing...
This have already been asked so many times!
Yes it is possible but someone have to do it! Most of the developers here are busy with other thing the are more important so it will be a while till someone find the time to do it!
if i knew developers were not interested in d dell streak i wouldnt have bought it, its a pity too, such a beautiful device going unnoticed, wonder where it went wrong..oh well...

Give it chance, it's not exactly been out long
It got rooted within days, which is pretty good going if you ask me, and stock Froyo is nearly done. I'd say development is moving along nicely
Once we have figured out how to get stock android running fine on the Streak, getting Sense running shouldn't be too hard.
I don't think it's got much to do with when it was released, Dell have held back most of the Devs by not releasing the kernal and when they did it wasn't complete, i'd rather have 2.2 than HTC sense if HTC sense was a priority i would of bought a HTC phone.
ur right about buying htc for htc sense lol, but i dono im on vanilla 2.1, n it sux lol, need some sort of skin and htc sense is the best out there come on devs!

I don't understand people that say this kind of stuff. If you want Sense or Froyo on the Streak why don't YOU download the kernel and start working on it. Oh, cause you don't know how? Well then maybe you should just sit and wait like everyone else. We are lucky that anybody is doing any dev work at all, so lets all be patient and stop complaining.
Is there any kind of tutorial on how to work on a kernel because I'm really interested in rom development?

I would have to disagree ... I heard roms aren't coming out until windows phone 7 is released cause the source code and drivers are congruent to development. Also people are not developing roms anymore cause stock is better. And one more thing our bootloader is encrypted so no custom roms. Sorry. Might you have to switch back to the droid if you want roms now!

Yeah, that was what we thought at first. Now it's ok though.. you just need to get Verizon to give you more 3G's to put on the GB's so that your apps will have their unlocked ROMs. For to bootload. er.
both of u guys are so close to right. brandon so close with his eta, and you were almost right by saying WP7, but actaully we are waiting on WP8. sorry i have a freind, who dates a girl ,that blows a guy, that supplies mop heads to the maintence at microsoft. and my sources say WP7 is a myth. that it is actually android. also im running a leaked version of gingerbread on my lg enV 2. (k so i took it WAAAAYY to far) to guy the poster asking the original question. SOON
Be patient...the phone was just released on Sept 9th....and it's already rooted and the recovery is available...it won't be too long. I think it's going at a great pace. No need to rush devs...I am all for quality product ...cough...2.2...cough...aosp...cough...cm....cough....ruby....cough I think I need a cough drop
well you guys are all wrong... i'm saying today..........................................................................................................................................................maybe.
Well, OBVIOUSLY....we have a rapist in Samsung Park...
F*%k waiting. I flashed the CM6 installer from the Incredible boards a few minutes ago. Koush made the recovery on our phone allow for ports from any other supported device. I have to tell you, 2.2 on this thing F*#$ing flies!
Ok... I'll have some of whatever you guys are smoking.... Maybe some Koush?

Dude, I think I just bricked my phone trying that! Can you help? I'm not sure if I used the right version of RSDLite for the Fascinate! Is it the same version the D1 uses?
This is a great ****ing thread. Cheers!
BTW I hacked the front facing camera to work on my CM6... Fring is aawsome. My Quadrant pulls 5300 with my lag fixed vanilla froyo jit etc
You can get the ROM at cyanogen website.. there's like 7 different ones.

First you must understand that it is not as simple as adding a video call button....
There are some great devs working on porting to froyo. This is going to be a grueling process and is going to take some time.
But rest assured there will be some lots of development for the streak.

Do we need dell to release source for 2.1 before cm can go to work, or can it be done with only the 1.6 that we have?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
we are already hacking together (or trying to ) a 2.6.32 based kernel (which froyo needs) but its slow work as dells kernel is less useful than a chocolate teapot
Good luck with it mate appreciate your efforts !
One more bit of good news for us streak owners. This is a thank you response from Steve (leader of the cyanogenmodders?) for a donation I made (classy in itself):
"Thanks! And we actually just got 2 people on board who are working on the Streak."
YIPPEE!!!
big thanks from here as well, i usualy donate once things are done, i think were going to get alot more action around here like the samsung galaxy s once the streak is sold at best buy, right now 1 out of 30 people know what the dell streak is so having it sold at best buy will hopfully make the community alot bigger

I have this on my incredible and its super fast. Feels very lite. It is a 2.2 aosp rom, so I'm thinking, easy on system resources. So I'm wondering if this could be useable on the eris. Would be nice.
Check it out...
Here is a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Or-9T44Bt7M&feature=player_embedded

Possible, but impractical. Since the incredible has an hdpi screen, and the eris has mdpi, every single graphic has to be manually resized. It's possible, but it would be a nightmare. Maybe someday an automated solution will be created. That would rock!
Not gonna lie, that UI looks pretty legit. I would defiantly flash if someone ported it.
Yeah, that's got a really nifty UI... I want.
I would love to have this ported too...At first they said it worked on Desire but I thought they meant the desire that resembles the eris. I am almost tempted to go with a desire just so i can root and try out that rom...lol.
I've been drooling over this rom the past couple days. I rooted my buddy's dinc and was checking out roms for him and saw this one. It would be SAWEEEEET!!
Not that I have any idea what I'm talking about when it comes to porting (like at all), but could something like this be of any help? -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785864
it could be ported alot easier if the res on the screens was the same as ours, if the made that for the legend we would get it but most likely it wont happen. :/

Go to the incredible forums or the nexus one forums its being distributed there. I didn't think it would be that difficult given that my favorite 2.2 eris rom cyanogen tazz was ported from a nexus one build.
I'm running this on my incredible now. Its marvelous. It works better than sense running live wallpapers. No lag at all. It should run exceptionally good in the eris. Some one start a donation drive for someone who can port it.

cyanogenTazz wasnt ported from the nexus one, it was from the hero or the g1 i dont excatly remember but not fromt he nexus one
Oh yea! My bad. Kaosfroyo I think was ported from n1

I was just in the Legend forum and somebody has ported the HTC Wildfire's froyo with sense. It boots up but is not fully working yet. But it looks like the light at the end of the tunnel is getting a little brighter

Nope, KaosFroyo is definitely built from source by Kaos, specifically for eris. I think maybe v1 used code from the N1 dump, but there's really never been a functional eris rom ported from an HDPI device like you guys are asking for. People just don't do it.
I want it NOW!
Wow that UI is insane I want it. If anyone decides to port it or try ill add to donation

Is a port of MIUI on the Streak possible ? I'm very attracted to this UI and think it would look awesome on our 5 inch screens.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Its a nice theme, I am sure its possible. But looks so iphone like, which really arent to my liking.
The theme tends to develop his own style and to differ from iOS. The UI iso very slick and since Gingerbread seems to be a disappointment ...

Its slick, no doubt, my friend has it on his milestone, it has some cool animation and 60 FPS system animations versus 17 FPS on the stock rom on a Nexus One. That makes it so much smoother. It does has this iPhone aroma about it.
I wouldn't pass judgement on gingerbread so quickly, its no even been release yet
Although I agree about the "looking too much like an iphone" thing, I would love to see this.
We're all extremely greatful for the huge amount of work that steve does on the Streak, but we really need more people developing,
An MIUI or Cyanogen rom would really give the streak the kick up the ass it deserves, this monster phone just seems wasted on the crap Dell are churning out.
Actually Steve is working on CM6 AFAIK. But we need something powerful. Something that is incredibly eye-candy. We could have the best phone if Dell cared.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Both of you are right, we need more dev and more rom choices. Streak 5 inch screen could do so much more. We need more dev to uncover its potential......
Yeah. I mean, if we could have DjSteve, Sense, MIUI and CM6 that would be awesome yet. When I see the number of Roms for the Hero I'm just WOW.

I just looked this rom up - the 10.29 version on the htc desire ,and it looks amazing. I think if one of you fantastic people could port it to our streaks it would make a great device with a crap ui ,into a great all round device.

I've read the MIUI benchmarks higher than cm anyway.
Hey steve, great news about the possibility of more rom options, not that we're dissing your current work though, the streak would be a sad state of affairs without your work so far & I hope you continue!

Hey there fellow streakers and power users, was wondering if anyone out there knows how I can get gingerbread on my streak. Apparently there are some really neat improvements when compared to froyo so it would be nice to try.
I have a dell streak from o2 unlocked with 2.2 froyo currently running on it. It hasn't been rooted as I can't find any sensible how to's on getting the original ota froyo rooted. Any help or pointers would be highly appreciated thanks.
Ps: this is my first post.

Thanks for the comment. That's really sad though. Would have loved to upgrade from 2.2 froyo. Now we have to wait ages for 3.0's release and then wait again for our rom saviour djSteve to sort us out.
Oh well, I guess I'll have to find something else to Tinker with on my dell streak until that time. Has anyone rooted original froyo yet? Why is the streak soooo difficult to hack/root. When I had the iphone I jailbroke it the same day I got it. IV had the streak a month now and still don't know how its done. I tried superboot and got stuck on the dell screen. IV heard soo much about the huge difference with rooted phones and custom roms. I want hands on. Pls, someone tell me it is possible to get root access on my streak and show me how. Thanks.
I haven't rooted mine but I have seen lots of info on it right here on and on Streakzoid I Believe.

Your right 'that1dude', there are many guides. Stoney73, I followed one of them only to get stuck on the dell screen which freaked me out so I am more inclined to follow a simpler method. U know, one for click and paste morons... not saying that I am one but after that experience I learnt that one can easily go from owning a dell streak to owning a dell brick.
