Google Maps 5.0.0 and Multitouch - Streak 5 Themes and Apps

Hi, I´m on DJ Steves 1.5.1 and I am not able to rotate the map with two fingers. Pinch to Zoom and viewing the map at an angle works, but rotating doesn´t.
A friend of mine has the desire and with that phone rotating works, so it´s not the application.

Ok, seems to be a problem with the streak.
Has somebody tried that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9870124&postcount=2163
I am at work right know so I can´t really play around with my phone too much.

I've tried the new maps and I'm having the same issue, no map rotation.
Streaking with the XDA app!

Its doesn't for me at least. Kinda messed up the pinch to zoom and tilt function even after i put back the original file,so i have to reflash 1.5.1, just be warning
BTW are you guys on Stephen's rom? Apparently one of the guy at MoDaCo forum report that everything work on his official rom.
So i was wondering it might have something to do with Stephen's rom

I am pretty sure this has something to do with the market fingerprint being that of a nexus one.
Also having problems with personalized voice search.
Basically I think we are getting some watered down versions of some of the latest google app updates.

At least in 1.4.6 "android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch.distinct" feature is not set in /etc/permissions. After it is set, rotate works properly in Maps 5.0. This has been discussed in Nexus One and Modaco Streak forums.
Solution on Modaco

works fine on the official 318 froyo. if you have unlimited data, i suggest going to menu > more > cache settings > turn on prefetch on mobile.

Front facing camera 2.1

I have been trying to take a picture with the front facing camera with the 2.1 software and it seems like the option to switch to it has been removed? Can anyone else confirm this?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
if you're referring to the UK leak, yes, its not there.
Although its not in the camera app, its still suported via fring, so at least its api's work in 2.1. You should try the Evo 2.1 camera apk

Just to clarify. The Evo 2.1 camera.apk can be installed on the Dell Streak? What is the process? Would I need to uninstall anything on the Streak first.
Do you think the Captivates camera.apk will work also.
I would really like to get a better camera.apk on the Streak. I especially like the ability to touch the screen to focus

I've tried several evo camera apks and had no luck. Either it would not install or could not launch app. Pretty sure i tried a different htc camera apk and was still a no go.
Same here...
It is sooo frustrating to have this great piece of technolgy integration from Dell completely let down by the software part...
Hopefully, the Android community will rectify this but my god...
Michael Dell, your Android dev team SUCKS big time!!!!

ahhh.. looks like the new version fixed it for some phones. Has anyone tried it on the Streak? I'm quite happy with the Fring since 2.2, just need earphones to hear the other person properly.
Can anyone with 2.2 try this and report back if this works with streak?
Thank you!

G'day,
Nope... however, according to DJSteves latest 1.3 release, this should now be enabled.
As yet I have not tested.

Zinio Reader

Is someone using the Zinio Reader which came with 2.2?
If yes have you been able to download a magazine?
I find it incredibly buggy compared to the one on the Galaxy Tab and Zinio does not answer any request for support!
The Streak version is 1.0
The Tab version is 1.0.1208
There is a new version posted somewhere on the forum... using on my evo and it works GREAT, not buggy like the beta version

Can't you just upgrade it to the current version on the marketplace ?

when i search for "zinio" in the market nothing comes up
on streakdroid 1.5.1
I couldn't get the beta version included with streak to download even one magazine. Currently using v1.0.1101, works fine on my streak... would like the test the version you mentioned for the tab though

Here's the XDA thread where you can download the APKs.
I have a non rooted Streak that I have downloaded and installed the 2.2 update. After installing the ReaderHub (and I'm not sure if I needed to reinstall the Zinio app), Zinio now works fine. No more downloading to 3% and showing the same page for all pages.
The app doesn't zoom in properly though. The text is blurry when you zoom in so isn't really great on the Streak. Hopefully Zinio get their act together and put a bit more effort into the Android version. They're obviously concentrating on the iPhone/iPad version.
I have the stock version of froyo on my rogers streak and for whatever reason the Zinio app will not play at all...As soon as I open it it force closes every time...I have tried shutting off the phone and rebooting and still does the same thing. Is anyone else having that issue with the Rogers Dell Streak? We just got the upgrade from 1.6 a few weeks ago and have to admit it is pretty buggy. I have had to remove quite a few apps to get it to work properly...Including any updates to flash 10.1....that is a whole other story..lol

Is it any different? I.E. does it let you hide movies and books? From what I've read / seen, it looks the exact same as the latest official market.
Just in case this helps anyone else...
I installed this on the international version of Streakdroid 2.3 and a lot of apps still show as incompatible with my streak. Reverted back to the version that came in the rom and all is well.
The Layout of the blocks are a little different. I think I like this version a little better. Also I didn't see any option for hiding the books or movies
Aftet all the trouble I got throught to make the market work properly I think im gona pass at this one. Thanks anyway.
