Hi there,
Ive had my Streak for about 3 months now, bought outright from telechoice in australia and its been fantastic. Came out of the box with 2.2 and no problems until today, when I was prompted to update over the air to 2.2.2 from dell. The update downloaded over wifi, and appeared to be doing its thing until the next time i looked at it, and its now stuck in a factory reset loop.
First thing i did to rectify the problem was try to do a software upgrade via update.pkg from the both volume buttons menu, using the same .pkg i was trying to install before. That seemed to do the same thing, then fail and continue with the reset loop.
After some googling and forum trawling i thought id give qdltool a try, except the furtherst ive got with that is this
Code:
###QDLTool: M 2.7.4.5, build ID: 1.302.20100910, time stamp: Sun Apr 24 21:23:31 2011

which i assume to be related to me not installing drivers correctly... is this correct?
any advice would be much appreciated

You do appear to have a driver issue. Unfortunately i'm a noob so all i can suggest is you head to Streakdroid and look at the guide for QDL tool. Hopefully this will have everything you need to get QDL working.
good luck
Thanks for the point in the right direction, im glad you could help fix my noob problems
turns out i had to use another computer to run qdl tool, no idea why but it worked fine and continued with the update
solved!
don't feel bad gizmolio, I had to go through 4 different laptops before one would act right and let me install the drivers the way I needed to to be able to push the files to the Streak.
As far as I know it's not an issue with a 32 bit machine, but all mine are 64 bit except for an ancient HP I had laying around with XP 32 bit pro that I now use to do all my adb work on my android phones.
Then I installed PDANET and that seemed to concrete the correct drivers on my W7 64 bit laptops and I can use any of them now

THIS IS ALL SORTED...DESPITE HAVING A STOPPED ANDROID BOOTLOADER DEVICE...I DISCOVERED THAT I HAD TO USE THE CORRECT FASTBOOT COMMAND AND NOT THE ONE SHOWN....IE I HAD TO USE fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
SO I JUST HAD THE ANDROID COMPOSITE ADB INTERFACE RUNNING AND BY USING THE 0X413C IN THE COMMAND IT WORKED...
hope somebody can stop me pulling my hair out!
Ive just taken posession of a Dell Streak. Came with the 1.6 android.

Have downloaded the latest dell drivers (R291096) and Sync Suite(R290209)...
Android Phone - ADB Inteface drivers all good
But i cant for the life of me get the Android Bootloader Interface going so I can use Fastboot commands.
Have tried XP 32bit and & Windows 7 64Bit with same result...have read lots n lots...but whatever i do i cannot get the Android Bootloader Interface to start....advice please my dear experts..

Dell keepin me out of fastboot and messing with clockwork etc !!
hi there just been having the same problem for the last 2 days i was told that clock work mod wont work with dell streak ?????? look @ this line http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840326
to boot in fast mode hold the camera button in and press the power button in @ the same time then tap fast boot mode also i have attached a file witch help me also here is a link what helped me 2 n8 when i bricked it in some way lol
http://streakdroid.com/?page_id=78
thanks for that info...i have just started reading through the streakdroid forums and QDL Tool (with drivers) sections...been at it a few hours...am really tired now...time for a rest before i do BRICK it lol......tried some other dell driver but no joy....usually always stick to my flashing in windows XP..for 32 bit and USB compatability but this is driving me nuts....thanks again....ive read read read and reread the pdf file.....
No worries i know what its like i was up till 2a, yesterday trying to do the same and 2 n8 got things working put a file on and it sort of bricked it and i have just sorted it out 20 mins ago
You have XP 64 bit? Isn't that a bit like a mythological beast OS that only exists in fairy tails and Redmond?
Hope you got this sorted out.
sorry should have read windows 7 64bit..only use xp in 32bit mode...all updates installed.
just trying again now...have uninstalled everything dell / drivers...used USBdeview to uninstall already set Android ports and old Qualcom ports from where i flashed my 3 usb stick, and the 3 drivers and software....downloading, again, the android 2.2 drivers and pc suite from dell.....will try again....i see 2.1 users and 1.6 users seem to have fastboot drivers working and clockwork mod....so will start playing all over again ..... at least the night is young!!!
oh bugger this im tired of going over things..guess the 319 version wont let you have proper drivers to "mess" around with the bootloader..ill revisit some time in the future
oh great decided to start again using a factory reset.....now all i get is process com.android.setupwizard has stopped unexepectedly. please try again..
cant get anything but a blank screen cos the setupwizard did not complete..
groan...
UPDATE 1345GMT.....downloaded Streak_319_12792_21.pkg .... renamed to update.pkg.....copied to root of sd card....booted into recovery and selected update from package.....am now back at 2.2 update and screen working...phew....now to spend rest of day setting it up again lol...wonder why doing a factory reset wont clear the caches?
I'm assuming you have sdk setup? If not give this a go great write up.

Sent from Re-Engineered dInc
no not used the sdk files...just the official update which is downloadable....no probs..
Also..update....i have managed to follow the instructions and install StreakMod even though my Android Bootloader device is still not started..Different commands there than what i was using to try n put CWM on.....ill see how that goes...at least im making progress and have saved the Official 319 update package in case i need it another day!! thanks for comments and help on this irritating buisiness...
ALL SORTED NOW..APPARENTLY TO USE FASTBOOT YOU MUST INCLUDE THE DEVICE CODE SO THAT FASTBOOT KNOWS WHAT IT IS TALKING TO!
IE THE FULL PROPER COMMAND LINE IS fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
CONSIDER THREAD CLOSED..THANKS TO ALL
Hi everybody... Today i tried to flash my german atrix, using sbf_flash and the OLYEM_U4_2.1.1 ROM...
The problem started in Ubuntu (11.04):
I can start the flash process, but after phone-reboot sbf_flash tells me that it can not access the usb-port. (does not matter if as user, sudo or as real root!)
OSX starts flashing until it breaks at the 6th or 7th upload...
Vista (the only Windows we have here) does not even recognize the phone, so RSD Lite cannot flash it...
At the moment i have a totally unusable phone with "Failed to boot 4. Starting RSD mode"...
Tryed nearly every howto that is given, but i cant even start fastboot-mode so thos howtos are completely unusable for me...
were you trying to downgrade when you first flashed the sbf in linux? because then you are hard bricked. :'( check stickies in atrix development
Hello, thank you if you are trying to help me.
What did I do?
I started to with Dell Streak running Android 2.2, wanted to upgrade to StreakDroid GingerStreak 2.4.4.
So I downloaded the files referred to in the linked guide in the section
YOU MUST FLASH THE BELOW BASEBAND AND DSP1 IMAGES TO ALLOW THIS BUILD TO WORK CORRECTLY!!

I installed device drivers and booted into fastboot, everything worked well.
Then I used the commands listed to flash amss.mbn ja dsp1.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash dsp1 dsp1.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Everything seemed okay, device started to reboot... but it never booted.
Current situation:
Device boots sometimes (not every time) until Dell logo and freezes. I am unable to boot into fastboot or recovery mode.
When connected to PC it shows up as qualcomm device and then installs drivers and lists as USB HID device.
I can use W7 64bit and Vista 32bit to troubleshoot the problem.
Thank you if you managed to read it all through and if you have any suggestions, I am all ears. Do not want to make things worse by doing wrong moves.
If you need any extra info just ask, I might have forgotten something useful.

I also have this same problem on my other streak. I tried going back to stock att 2.2 though from streak droid 1.6 I think. Which ever one is 2.2.2. Flashed recovery and I never changed basband so it was stock still. Stuck at dell logo. Cant get into safe mode to use qdl tool
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
any luck?

I cannot remember exactly what was said for gingerstreak but I do remember there being some quite specific instructions about the first flash and boot of the rom.
I would suggest reading the whole post and then trying to flash again.
I can remember having the same problem as you when I first flashed this rom but I managed to resolve it by reading the post thoroughly.
If I can find the stand out instructions in the thread I will post them but if you still want the rom have another good read and all should fall into place.
Sorry for not posting solution a year ago. I managed to unbrick my device using this guide: www . calazan . com/how-to-upgrade-your-att-locked-dell-streak-baseband-gausb1a111231-build-6601-to-android-2-2-froyo/
Just make sure you are on 32bit operating system. I personally did it on 32bit Vista. As I did it a year ago I cannot remember the exact details but thought it might help someone googling for bricked dell streak in the future.
Had to put spaces in link because xda does not allow posting links with so few posts.

any help would be good
Phone bricked stuck on Android screen,access to adb & fastboot logs provided [Solved]
Hello,
I recently messed up my phone. Long story short, I snatched an OTA, modified it and tried to force it on my phone. The vanilla OTA always failed in the check process because I modified some /system files on my phone. In result of that, a couple of files has been wrongly patched ( /system/app/OpenWnn/OpenWnn.apk ; /system/bin/debuggerd ; /system/bin/install-recovery.sh ; /system/priv-app/ApeCloudFileManager/ApeCloudFileManager.apk ; and maybe others indirectly ). I can provide more informations about my slip up if you wish.
Since then when I start my phone I'm stuck at the "Wiko, powered by Android" screen. I can access the stock recovery menu, and the factory mode. I also have access to my phone throught adb, adbd, and fastboot.
My phone is a Wiko Rainbow Lite 4G ( http://world.wikomobile.com/m745-rainbow-lite-4g ), the actual manfacturer is Tinno so the phone is probably sold under different names around the world, Wiko being only a "middle-man".
With that said, I can't flash the ROM using the utility given to me by Wiko. They do not provide "stock rom" with scatter file, but instead use their own software, a sole .exe file ready-to-use, you hook your phone to your pc, restart the phone by pressing random combination of buttons, and voila. However, I managed to extract the system.img, boot.img, etc files from the .exe . So I figured out I could try to use "fastboot flash system system.img" command to restore whatever files are messed up. Might as well not touch /recovery and /boot because I can access the recovery the phone seems to boot correctly ( from what I understand /boot is just a bootloader, so me being a pc-guy I wouldn't see the point of reinstalling GRUB if windows was missing a dll or something like that ) .
But the phone is locked .... Here's the "fastboot oem device-info" result
Code:
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.005s]
And I when I try to "fastboot oem unblock" :
Code:
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)
So yeah .... I'm stuck there. If anyone got an idea, even a vague one of what I could try next to unbrick my phone that would be very kind of you. There's no wrong answers. So please if you got a couple minutes to spare (you already made it through my laïus which is already something ) I would be very grateful.
I'm thinking about extracting files from system.img and copy them on my /system partitions throught adbd with a script .... But I'm not sure if that would help or make it worse.
If you need informations here's the logcat I got under "factory mode" ; part1 : http://pastebin.com/nx7BC8K5 , part2 : http://pastebin.com/eU94B9VE
the pstree (because come on, if a phone can launch all of that, certainly there's something we can do to repair it) : http://pastebin.com/ZWd6vC9q
dmesg : http://pastebin.com/RYfbF0ub
prop : http://pastebin.com/k6T4bYnu

PS : Yes I'm still a noob when it comes to Android, but please if you have any questions, need more informations, ask and I shall provide.
PPS : @moderators, I apologize if I posted in the wrong section, please redirect me
Since you extracted them, they now have a different signature and can therefore not be flashed onto the device because your bootloader only allows ROMs with their signature to be flashed successfully. Also, to clear things out, boot == kernel, boot =/ bootloader. Also, why exactly can't you flash it using their provided tools? If you are going to flash stock ROM you might as well reflash recovery and boot.
Thanks for answering.
I can't flash using their provided tool because the tools fails at 1% progression with a generic message error "oops something wrong happened, good luck with that kido, kisses".
Why do I don't want to flash recovery and boot ? Because these seems to work now, and I'm scared that if I break those I won't even be able to access my phone through adb,fastboot or get to recovery.
About the signature, I've seen plenty of topic/tool/stuff around the internet about how to unpack RUU images (is that what they're called or is RUU specific to htc ?) to update.zip files (eg: http://blog.coralic.nl/2010/01/25/how-to-create-update-zip-using-your-build-aka-system-img/ ; http://lazydroid.com/2011/03/howto-repack-and-sign-rom-image-update-zip-files/) . Problem being they're always wayyy outdated and approximative.
Honestly it would help me a lot in my research if I know what is even wrong with my phone.... I can't make sense of the logcat.
EDIT :
Ok I finally managed to reflash it using a more generic flashtool (designed for qualcomm based phone) named QFIL.exe, found it in this archive http://www.mediafire.com/download/4rgr02wi542n4sw/Qualcomm_tools_and_guidance.rar . Then I simply used the file found in the .exe files to populate the form and yabadabadou !
However my flash screen is now completly black .... I do not even have a prompt when selecting between recovery ("Power"+"vol-" then "vol+") and factory mode ("Power"+"vol-" then "vol-")...
Anyway, now that I know how to safely unbrick it. I can mess with it even more. But I probably should port CWM to it and do a backup pretty quick.....

YaY, you can now put [SOLVED] in the title to help other in the same issue you had!
Dear members,
I read everything written here carefully. After boot logo stuck, I tried flashing with qfil latest and error firehose fail. Ok. After that, I tried everything I knew. Test point, box, more than 20 roms, etc.
If anyone really knows how to solve a problem, I'd appreciate it.
Kind regards
