what a forum..no one here is interested to help..
It sucks when something so important to you needs an answer right away.
There are some great tutorials on here and at modaco that go over everything easily.
The basics are to load a new recovery, probably 309 and then download and flash a new pkg file. If your streak is O2 then I believe the latest is froyo 319.
If your looking to stay on 2.1, I am not quite sure. I started at froyo.

First of all just stop guessing... that will cause more harm then good.
What you want to do is get the QDL tool from streakdroid.com and select their GUIDS page then follow their instructions. They have videos and FAQ's that will help walk you through the process. I could explain for you, but they have it down perfctly.. If you get stuck on any one of their steps please let us know and I will try to help explain.
Good luck!
Okay so I just bought this streak about 2 hours ago. It is a dell streak straight from dell with 2.2 already on it. When I bought it i did a factory reset and 2.2 was still on it. So i get home and I attempt to root the phone. The root seemed to work....and now im stuck at the dell logo. Im freaking out! I was so happy
The root method was SuperOneClick. I was reading on a forum somewhere and somebody suggested that I use that. I tried to do a hard reset, but that did not help me.
Can somebody suggest what I should do? Ive searched forums for two hours now and cant find a way for the situation im stuck in. The other problem is I cant get the Dell PC Suite properly installed on my computer....
Thanks Guys...
Turn it on again, just give it some time to boot. Worst comes to worst use QDL Tool from Streakdroid.com.
Its not that simple...ive rooted phones before.
Anways, i just got done installing Clockwork recovery mod so im making some progress.
I dont know how to find what build number I have though since my streak wont turn on. Will this be a problem?
I figured it out! If anyone else runs into a similar problem i used QDl Tool!
Told you QDL Tool will fix it.

Everything you need to know is in that guide... if the QDL tool finishes its course and you still have troubles I would suggest flashing the latest recovery image and retail ROM and see if that helps

hi i am still in trouble and can't able to flash it can you provide me any guide that will help me to flash the streak , also why my streak shows e:can't mount sd card
while i use option 2 to restore it via update.pkg
The pockatables link you went to explains everything you need to know to flash the Streak. Here's another link: Everything You Wanted To Know About The Streak But Were Too Busy Bricking It. Now, if you cannot figure out how to flash the Streak from that, I wouldn't bother trying because you will brick it.

Do a factory reset and plenty reading.
Did you do an update to the ROM? It's possible the update didn't flash properly in which case you need to try again. Instructions on how to manually flash a ROM are on the wiki.
And, to echo my colleague here, read. Read a lot.
