i got my dell streak from o2 about a year ago i rooted and messed about with it. then the screen broke, and dell sent me a brand new streak with android 2.2 and unlocked, ive never had the standard dell notification bar and i was wondering if theres any way of installing it without rooting. and also is it worth rooting my streak again? i couldnt find a rom tht was stable enough for me. like the auto screen rotate always failed. the phone crashed and reset and stuff. basicly i need some experienced advice. im not a beginer but not a pro. am better with the desire tbh. but anyways please help!! thanks guys
come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

same problem
hi
i bought X10 today and first thing i did is upgrade its android OS
and after up-gradation same thing started happening to my cell also...
did u find any fix or cure for this problem???
and one more thing after up-gradation main menu got slower!!!
i thought upgrade was to improve the cell !!!
What IF the screen flicker happens when I accidently bricked my phone. I still cannot find any solution. I've flashed my phone so many times now and none of them are working. Just right after I turn on my phone, the backlight is on and i can see the screen flickers. haihz
happened to me to after i used the flashtool to flash 2.1 global generic.
i kinda got over it but i'd like to know why.
the flash worked perfectly. and so did the flash of my current 2.2.1 freex10 rom .
so i have no idea whats going on.

Lol, I travel through time as well on occasion
Yes, mine will do it randomly - can't replicate it, but it does always seem like its in the morning (probably because it makes me think i'm running late!) A soft reset fixes, but it is frustrating... NEVER had a phone or electronic device do that to me in the past. I'm on stock ATT 1.6.
it happened when i was with 1.6, i hope it won't happen in 2.2, anyway it's going ahead rather being behind ...

I'm on 2.1 and it happens to me, not often but too much for my liking, restarting the device seems to sort everything out, hopefully this is fixed on froyo.
do you guys have your network visibility on or off?
I have the same problem the clock goes 15 minutes forword and it's annoying, i have android 2.2 how can i fix this problem?

Thank you my friend, i hope it's working if not i don't know what to do, i was thinkin to format the internal card and then resoft the phone, becase i tried clear cache and dalvik did also a dell reset but the problem persist, i even change the software to gingerbread then to [ROM] Streakin' 354v1.1 and the problem persist.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Haven't had my Streak turned on in a while. Was going to sell it but changed my mind -- for now. When I turned it on today I see that there is a Dell Mobile upgrade. Wondering "when was this released?" [still downloading] and HOPING it clears up the problem I was having with my extended battery not showing the actual time remaining.
Probably the 2.2.2 update that was pushed out a couple weeks ago.
I just got around to installing it a couple days ago. If you want to dump the annoying ooVoo program that launches at boot, you'll need to root it.
I used gingerbreak which was painless. After you root, then you can use an uninstaller to dump it, along with whatever bloat you want off the phone.
I have actually rooted my Streak and then set it aside without changing to another rom .. I will take a look today.. Has anyone found a rom that will show the actually charge left using the extended battery?
Have you tried resetting the battery stats through either streak mod or cwm recoveries?

Hi everyone,
I have a Dell Venue phone and unfortunately there is a problem with it. The thing is after I charge it up it starts restarting itself and just keep restarting and stops at Dell logo. Nothing else comes up. I want to change the current android 2.2 to a different one maybe that would resolve the problem or is it just the battery? A hard reset helps for a few hours. Anyone? please! I hope I can fix this problem somehow and I am not going to lose my money and the phone.

I just talked to a dell representative yesterday and they told me the New OS upgrade to 3.0 has just been release, but we have to wait for the service provider to push it out over the air.
My venue doesn't have any of your issues, sounds like you might have installed an app that's messing up your phone.
You can do a system recover by holding down both volume buttons at the same time and turning the phone on until the screen loads, obviously do this from the off position.
Now that I think about it, it might be better to wait until you get an OS on an SD you can install.
I do not have a contract with a service provider (unlocked phone; prepaid T-mobile)....How am I going to get the update (Dell Venue; Android 2.2)?

I guess that might be where you would have to root it and then install the rooted version, but I don't know about that type of thing. It's just my guess.
I called a Dell service rep. Apparently they are releasing Android 2.2.2 and they are having big issues. The rep asked me to NOT upgrade when I get a message from the service provider (even if prepaid only I should get that) but check back with Dell whether the upgrade is ok. They expect a stable upgrade by end of August.

Thanks everyone. I tried the hard reset that is the only one thing which solves the problem for a few minutes but only for a few minutes. It was alright when I pruchased it but its started causing trouble a few weeks earlier. I do not know what the problem is. Is that true a new update coming out? Maybe that would make it OK. Dell UK is not selling the venue just the venue pro. I hope the update will help me. Or maybe I ask Lloyds about my phone insurance. I am falling in love with my BB torch white!

where are you located, because the dell mobile technician here told me it was 3.0 they are releasing over the air.
Dude, try to do a factory reset. Clear all the apps off your SD card first as I read that having apps on the card might prevent the phone from rebooting. Try the recovery option in manual.

In the US. But if you are right that would be great!

They are releasing 3.0. Its supposed to be over the air,but just taked to att who talked to dell and they said a couple of more months

Version 3.0 - a version of the OS build. For Hong Kong - 3.02 for the Korean Olleh - 3.19, for AT&T - 3.21, but they all Android 2.2 or 2.2.2
Much doubt, that Dell will sharpen tablet's HoneyComb for our apparatus, at best it will be 2.3.3
-------------------------
sorry for my english
Yeah, u r right... Android 3.0 is ment only for tablets..... Venue screen is too small for this....
I've called dell on several occasions to ask about updating. I get a different answer everytime. Once it was gingerbread at the end of august, next it was honeycomb at the end of sept. and the latest was, not too sure, but there will be an update, oh and ice cream sandwich will be coming out by december and should work on the venue..... not sure what dell is up to really and dell doesn't seem to know what dell is up to????
Yeah lol.... I asked about update at Dell service center in Hyderabad and they answered that they didn't received any info about update....

I am running mine rooted but theres not much out there, I had more luck with the Streak 5. It shipped 2.2, I really would like to see 3.2 at least. I mean at this point its kinda sad that im still running Froyo.
Im on AT&T in California....
So it seems I've bricked my new Dell Venue...was playing around in the bootloader looking at the menus there and came upon a screen with several choices on it. Not knowing much about the Venue,i decided not to mess with any of them and since there appeared to be no way to exit them,i pulled the battery...BIG mistake, now when I power up my Venue, only the the buttons at the bottom of the screen light up and nothing else. Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you fix it?? Any advice would be much appreciated as I don't like using this phone as a paper weight...
