it installed good it loads but as soon as i try and slide to unlock the phone it reboots help please
It sounds like the android welcome app is corrupted, this happened to me before and the easiest way to fix it is to download the 351 update from the Dell OTA Server (http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_351_15609_00.pkg) to your sd card using your computer (rename it update.pkg) and boot into Recovery Mode(vol dwn + vol up + pwr at the same time) and select upgrade via update.pkg. That should fix the corruption and make your phone run properly.

it works in other phones but not the streak
Same thing happened to me after trying to install a theme. Phone would soft reboot when I touched the screen. Had to clear all caches and do a factory restore followed by nandroid restore.
Posted with StreakZilla, using XDA App.
Some more problems with the 351!
Yes,
Even I have had the "lock-unlock-sorry the fone has freezed" thingie!
^ but, its random!
I flashed and did factory resets!
In addition to that I also have issue with the market (which is driving me mad!)
the market just does not show the sideloaded apps!!
TRied clearing cahce, clearing data, and all sorts (as much as I can do with unrooted streak)
Please suggest something here!
Can we go back to 318?
Please give me something!
Thanks,
Sony

Hi all,
Once again, I've hit a wall with my phone. I apologize ahead of time for the length of this post, but i want to be very clear about what happened so I can get it resolved as soon as possible. Also, I have searched for hours to find an answer to this problem, but I've failed to find anything that helps.
Earlier this week I was running Bionix Fusion 1.1 but with all the buzz on the forums about the new 2.2 ROMs I decided to try one. I downloaded Axura 2.0.5 and backed up everything with Titanium Backup and ROM Manager. I then went through ROM Manager to perform the install. This is were I fear I messed something up. I renamed the .zip file from StockKernelAXURA.zip to update.zip (just like when I installed Bionix). Booted into Clockwork (through ROM Manager) and flashed the zip. Everything looked fine during the install, but I'm stuck at the Vibrant load screen.
I found one solution that uses Odin to reflash back to factory, which I did and everything was great... but then I re-flashed and tried Axura 2.0.5 again using the same method. Now I can't boot up (still stuck on the Vibrant load screen) and I can't enter Download mode. I've tried all kinds of button and usb plug-in sequences. Nothing! Please, I know someone out there is thinking "Noob... this is a simple fix!" I'm hoping that person reads this and can lend a helping hand.
Thanks in advance!
This always works for me take out battery plug in usb to phone and computer hold down volume keys while holding the volume keys place the battery back in this should take you to download mode if it doesn't your phone may be hardware locked there are methods of making a device to force download mode but try what I said first then if that doesn't work at least you have an idea of what else to look for
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
It worked! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I knew there had to be a way I was missing! I'm flashing back to stock (again) and I'm going to try flashing Axura again... but seeing as the method I used has failed twice so far, any advise? I love how Team Whiskey provided detailed instructions for flashing Bionix Fusion... so shouldn't the same process work for different ROMs? Regardless, now I have another trick up my sleeve.
Thanks again!
Flash it through clockwork in rom manager choose install from sd then go to where it is in your phone click on it that should send you to clockwork recovery then go to install.zip from sd then navigate to whatever folder its in then go to it, it should install you dont have to change the name
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
If your unsure about anything I said dont be afraid to ask if I have the answer I'll help you out

I'm assuming you're stuck at cache Just take out your SD card, the large one. I always odin with my sd card out. It gets past that phase where you can get stuck. That will work, and DO NOT rename the {insert rom name here}.zip file to update.zip, just enter clockwork mod recovery and choose install zip from sd card and find it, BUT you NEED to
1. Wipe cache partition
and
2. Wipe DALVIK cache (in advanced menu)
BEFORE installing a rom.

So rather than start new thread I thought id continue on this one saying that I have the same problem only no matter what I do I can not force any mode at all. My phone is currently stuck stating that it is converting data partition to optimize for ext 4.
I really dont know what to do at this point.
I tried the following steps
1. Download all the files required in the "BOOT CYCLE" section of this post.
2. Remove everything from your phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your computer WITHOUT the battery, as you have already taken it out in the last step.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
8. Follow steps 4-8 from the "BOOT CYCLE" section.
with no results. It doesnt even give my phone enough time to show the charging indicator it just automaticlaly boots.
OK i got it to go into download mode. i just plugged in the cord and held down the volume rocker.
no recovery mode
I have the same problem I can't get into Recovery mode I have an HTC G2, I was installing a new kernel, then the recovery Mode stop working, Got stuck in HTC Logo.
Any idea how to fix the problem or what's my problem??? i'd already try some tips but nothing works....
try using the vibrant toolbox to flash the new rom

You most likely made that backup when voodoo was disabled and now when you restored it, voodoo was enabled. Try booting up in recovery[VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER then let go of POWER and keep holding VOL UP + VOL DOWN] and installing a voodoo kernel like overstock.
That may be what happened, but dont know anything about the history of the phone. I have tried over and over to get into recovery mode and it wont go past the Vibrant load screen :/
I am also stuck at the vibrant boot screen.
I was trying to update a rom via CWM on my phone, the phone restarted and is now stuck at the vibrant screen.
I have had trouble connecting my vibrant to the computer before. I am not sure that even if i get my phone into dl mode i might not be able to connect to ODIN.
Please help!!
i've been stuck here for some time trying to find a solution to this. rooted fin but when i tried every time i try to do a factory wipe it aborts and when i try to install a zip/rom through clockwork it just says "E:can't find MISC" i've looked around and haven't been able to find something that helps, this may be due to me being to to android. can someone help or just give me directions to start all over again.
I get that as well, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. But what do I know, it all seems like a black art!

Moving to Q&A
got it working now got an Os splash screen but it works this is how i did it
HOW TO RESTORE YOUR STREAK BACK TO FACTORY CONDITION:
Option 1.
1. Download the stock recovery ROM HERE (http://hotfile.com/dl/61659279/506ac...stock.img.html) and the stock official Dell ROM HERE (http://hotfile.com/dl/61663686/7d7e5...99_21.pkg.html).
2. Rename the stock official Dell ROM 'Update.pkg' and put it in the root directory on your SD card.
3. Boot Streak in fast boot mode (hold camera button when turning on), press 'Fast boot Mode' button, wait 10 seconds then connect to your PC (must have Dell PC suite installed).
4. Open a command prompt, navigate to the folder where your 'fast boot-windows.exe' is stored.
5. Type 'fastboot-windows.exe -i 0x413c flash recovery c:\recovery.stock.img' . Make sure the .img file is in c:\ directory. The program will now update the recovery image on your Streak.
6. Once the phone reads 'Recovery Done', remove the battery and insert it again.
7. Boot Streak in Recovery mode (hold down vol up and vol down when turning on) and select option 2.
5. Wait till it installs and it'll boot into Android....DONE!
Option 2
Place update.pkg on SD card root folder
Power up streak whilst holding both volume buttons
Select option 2 - "software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD card" by pressing camera button
Press camera button again Job done
i think later tonight i'll try to upgrade to 2.2 wish me luck and thanks for all your help EDRILL
i spend a whole night now to get android work on my hd2. had the same error message...
now i know why it didn't work and the solution was dead easy i had to beat myself...
sd card has to be FAT not FAT32
after formatting the card this way, everything works fine ^^
Are you sure it has to be FAT? I have heard there are restrictions on this format that would make it impracticle to use on a 16gb microsd.
Also how you format to fat? my computer only has 2 options to format: Fat32 and exfat.
FAT can only allocate up to 2 gigabytes of storage so there is something dodgy about that explanation.
ok i think ive come to a conclusion that if i want to flash a regular rom like 351 i need to flash a amss file and a dsp1 file...before i flash the recovery and update....can someone conferm this???
also if thats the case is this something that should be done with 1.9
im having problems with both and my phone is now a paper weight please help me noone is helping me with any problems here!!
You're likely not getting answers because the information is in your instruction manual and on the forums. But, this should help you anyway.
To install 351, or for that matter, ANY official Dell ROM...
1. Download the 351 update package from here. Place said package on the root of the MicroSD card and rename to "update.pkg".
2. Shut down the phone.
3. Place the phone into recovery mode by holding both the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time while holding down the power button. Let go of the power button when the Dell logo appears.
4. If done properly, you should see a menu in white letters on a black background. This is recovery mode. In the menu that should appear there should be an option to flash an update package. Select this option using the volume up and down buttons to highlight your choice and the camera button to select. The Streak should automatically find the update package you put on the MicroSD in step 1 and install it. After that, it's a matter of patience and waiting for the process to finish.
If your recovery image is screwed up, search for multirecoveryflasher on the forums. From there you should be able to install a recovery image easily enough.

yes i am....
Ok, did you flash one of the stock recovery images, or one of the two that were modded (Streakmod and Clockworkmod)? I would restore one of the default images, whichever one was last on your phone, then do the update.
The fact you can get into fastboot means the phone isn't bricked, so that's good news.

i've flashed 351 recovery and i kept gettin the boot loop....then i flashed the 345 and same thing....then i flashed streakmod and flashed 1.9 and i get the same lock ups when i boot and boot loops.....
also
when my phone is in data mode and i try and reboot it that causes alot of problems with loading idk why but that might help
Download the update.pkg and the recovery again. They may have been corrupted. Then pull all the data off your external SD Card and do a full format (FAT32) on it. Once the format is complete load the update.pkg to the phone and try again.
Hey all,
My TB (rooted and running VIRUS ROM) froze earlier and would not do anything until i pulled the battery. When I did it booted up but did so as if I did a hard reset and now gets stuck in the ANDROID splash screen and will not boot up at all. I dont know what happend but is this phone bricked?
What did u do to it to cause it bootlooping
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
First off, wrong forum.
Second, the answer is:
No. If you can get past the bootloader, then your not bricked.
Reflash the ROM (don't format /data) or just a new kernel and that should fix it.
have you tried to connect to PC and run
adb reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can also try to power off and power it on while holding on the volume down button
Boot the phone with power/vol down pressed…. will bootloader run?
Please note: if you have a PG05IMG file in the root of your sd card, recovery will only allow you to run that update. I had to remove my card, insert it into a USB/micro-sd card reader, delete that file, then reboot phone with volume down. From there, you can choose recovery and flash appropriate files. If you don't have a microsd card reader, may need to put in another phone and tehter with USB to gain access to card files. Hope this helps.
hi,
after my gsm problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1892837
... i decided to flash a new sbf, i had 198_6 before i did the pudding and rooting and all..
so now i have tried 198_7 .
and during the posses , the rsd lite wrote "please boot up the phone menualy" , then i pull and insert the battery (because the phone was on the m logo) and boot up.
the phone is now is a boot loop.
i can still access the rsd, but what to do? cause i tried the sbf again and same result
You probably missed one very important thing!
It's called - Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Hi,
Its a easy one.
Boot into Android Recovery Mode.
Press Vol Down + Power Button and then scroll to Android Recovery
Once you're in recovery mode you will see Android Logo.
At that point Press the Vol Down + Vol Up button togather.
You will get menu thing.
Do Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
Once its done. Reboot System and that should fix it.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
i don't think that when flashing sbf that wipes everything rewire Wipe Data/Factory Reset from cmw recovery....
but lets say that it does...
what am i doing now ? the cmw recovery is gone, as well as the unlock .
any suggestions?

Hi,
Just root your phone using the OCR file I have attached. Its pretty simple.
Just extract the files somewhere on your HDD in a folder. Then run root.bat file. Be sure that phone in is Debug Mode.
After you have rooted. Install app. like Root Explorer etc.
Once Root Explorer or similar app in installed goto /system/apps
Delete sprintconnmoplugin.apk and sprintconnmoplugin.obex
Thats it. Now restart your phone and you're done.
Thanks.
thanks mate.. i did it..
but i still getting any signal..
and yesterday everything was just fine.. i had cm7 and was happy..
maybe flashing cm7 will work it out? (i don't think so)

Did you download the proper stock SBF or some other ?? The stock always works for me no matter from which ROM i am coming back. I think most probably its related to the settings or the SBF you rsd'ed.

Hi,
Its correct. Are you sure that you deleted the 2 files I told you to delete ?
Also use Root Uninstaller app from market to remove sprint apps. maybe they are causing the conflict.
You can go here to see which apps. you can safely remove:
