I bought my streak 5 from Dell in USA, unlock.
Base = GAUSB1A134700
Unfornately its don't have the wifi, each time I turn on wifi, its have an error, I read about it in the forum, something to do with a missing kernal.
I download the
351 15609 00 110317 Mar 17, 2011 update.pkg
And installed it, by holding down Volume, and its power up.
I choosed the #2 and update.pkg from the SD.
Its open the file, and verifying, then updating, I can see the green bar, but half way, its restart and the Dell logo screen appear and its stay there for more than 10 mins, is this how its suppose to install?
I can't even log back on my regular andriod 2.2 without wifi, its keep giving me a choice to reset from a manufactor or update and such.
So i did the manufactor reset, and its does the same problem, struck at the logo.
I read about StreakMod and Clock Recovery, its all in zip file, and I don't even know how to install, I can't find any step how to use or install the Streak Mod.
I would like to get the latest andriod with a working unlock sim card and wifi, what should I do, I am new here. thanks
Also what is FastBoot ?
bah i read this and that, I don't know what is img, to use img, i need streakrod or clockrecovery, and to use those i need fastboots arghh any simple instruction here, thanks.
Ok, I figured out how to Fastboots
So its "hold down camera" while power on, now i connected to my PC, I got struck here, i can't find the driver inside my pc, I am using window 7 64 bits, where can I find the driver. thanks.

Have you installed these drivers (in windows)?
ftp://ftp.dell.com/Handheld/R288920.exe
I had the same problem it called dell and the sent me a brand new one. If your with in 30 days they will send you an new one and shipping. For you to send the broke one back no questions asked.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
Yeah I installed the driver.
learned so much stuff in one day the base gausb1a147000 is the worest one, all the one who bought that batch have the wifi problem, but its unlock, when send back to the company, they replaced with the AT T one, the base 340. I have same problem like many other of 470 owners, no success
I installed 345, won't load or boots
I installed 351, its load, but lagged, music can't play,can't read sd card
I am surprisely the hong kong rom 354 worked for the 00. Its work nice, but I don't like the keyboard with some of those chinese character
you should try
Well, they should replace an Unlocked with Unlocked one!
(they did replace mine here in India! - no idea about other countries)
Try talking to them again.
If its some problem that is indeed there, then priority #1 should be getting that replaced/corrected.
@354 Hongkong update.
If, you just dont like the chinese chars on default keyboard,
there are plenty options to have other keyboards!

Slide it KB
Smart KB
But, try the replacement first!
care,
Sony.
I had same issue when I replaced my Dell Streak
1st one I got Official Unlock ROM and it gets faultly , I sent it back to Dell and They sent me new one with 340 ROM which doesn't come with ( Personal Wi-Fi ) and no option for switching between ( GSM & HSDPA ).
Note: 90% of what you need is available in Dell Streak WiKi
What I've done is:
1- Download Stock ROM 318 , save it into Streak's SD ( instructions available in WiKi)
2- Installed 318 on it by using Multi-recovery app
3- Skip Google sign-in ... bla bla bla , connect to the Wi-Fi then go to ( Settings --> About --> System Update ), then it should prompt you that there is an update to 351
If the Wi-Fi didn't work , send it back to Dell to for replacement
Hope my post is useful

Hi Everyone,
I started this thread because I really couldn't find the solution to the problem I am having with my Dell Streak. First of all I have the Dell Streak T-Mobile 3G version, it was working fine until yesterday, all of a sudden the screen wouldn't turn on. I did a Factory Reset and it worked fine after that. But I am unable to install anything in my Streak, If I download it from the Market I get message, "Download Unsuccessful" and If I download it off of internet using my browser I get the message, "Application Not Installed"
I have tried the solutions provided by people like Clearing Market Cache and stuff but honestly that doesn't work at all.
I don't know what could possibly affect only the Download and Install Manager in my Dell Streak. I am running Android 2.1 the leaked version on my Streak.
Any Help will be Greatly Appreciated.
I literally cannot install anything :'(
HELP!!!!!!
Use the version that was made for the streak. Problem solved.
But I cannot find the official O2 update file, and if I try to root it and install the new firmware, it says that the firmware is up to date and my streak restarts, it's very strange, no one seems to have this problem.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Sorry for the OT, but... I thought the Dell Streak would not work with US T-Mobile 3G, only 2G unless you are AT&T. Are you outside the US or is there really a version that works with US T-Mobile 3G now?
FYI: Did you change your GMail? Download unsuccessful happens if the 'GoogleID' is tied to a different GMail then the one you are using. I know this from hacking Chinese tablets and having to install a GoogleID. If that is the case, GTalk should not work either, but all other google apps are fine. Google for how to create a new key and change it. WARNING: It requires setting up the emulator and is a long process. The other option is just to reflash it, and if that doesn't work, reflash the stock rom.
This is soooo annoying, does anyone here get this error on some websites while browsing using the default shipped Android 2.2 browser?
Andriod browser dialog box mesg:
"Data connectivity problem
The page contains too many server redirects."
Example: http://www.yelp.com just does not work for me.
I am not sure if this is only happening to build 315 Dell Streaks. I did read somewhere else that going to build 318 fixes it, but I'd like to know how to fix this on 315 without going to 318.
Thanks in advance!

I get the same thing on stock 2.2 I have yet to figure out what it means or how to fix it.
You don't even have to root your phone to install baseband 318. As long as you are on baseband 305, 309, or 315 you won't even have to connect it to your computer.
Download (here is a Dell page with the link) the 318 file with your phone or with your computer and copy to the root of your SD Card. Browse to it with a file browser (you can use Quick Office) and tap on it.
If it doesn't do anything (if it does you'll be taken through the upgrade process) then rename the file to update.pkg.
Turn your phone off. Press the power button to turn your phone on and as soon as the LEDs light up hold BOTH volume buttons down. The phone will go into recovery mode. Use the volume controls to highlight the choice to install update.pkg and then press the camera button to select it.
The 318 update will be installed and your phone will reboot.
I believe that the second method will wipe your settings, so you'll have to set up your accounts and re-install your apps. When I did this I did a factory reset first so that I was doing the equivalent of a fresh install.
That's it - no drivers to install, no cables to connect (unless you copy the file to your phone with the cable), and you are technically running a stock phone.
This will not work if you have installed a custom recovery, you need a stock recovery on your phone to use an update.pkg. So this is perfect for those who don't want to mod their phone. You won't be able to tell the difference except that the redirect bug is gone.

DELL released a fix for this problem months ago on http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/mobile-devices/f/3824/t/19353639.aspx
Download this file http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_318_12821_00.pkg from the Streak's web browser, and then follow the instructions to apply the update.
I tried both ways listed here, unable to update.

Can you be more specific as to what happen when you try to upgrade? I just did the upgrade last night and did encounter a few problem myself but I got it done at the end so maybe I can be of help if you can be a little more specific about the problem.
Btw I'm on stock 318 update from above link and server re direct problem is gone
Worked like a charm, Thank you. All I did was download the file from my phone, then when it finished downloading I clicked on it from the notification bar and a menu poped up asking me to update and so I did. Now I no longer have that error poping up.

i am also facing the same issue
I have a X10a on AT&T network. I used the 2.6 flash tool made by Androxyde and Bin4ry to flash the Rogers 2.1.1.A.0.6 yesterday march 26.2011. Everything seems to be working good so far....My question is when i plug the phone in to the wall charger it will say "no sim card in phone" just above the unlock slider. anyone have any ideas why that is showing up now? The other thing that i have noticed is periodically 2 red "x" will appear in the status bar in place of the signal strength bars and in place of the 3g data symbol. oh and instead of showing the 3G on the status bar it has a "H" instead. Has anyone else seen this happen? thanks
Don't know if you should be using Rogers branded firmware on AT&T network. It probably has something to do with that. It's looking for a Rogers sim card. Try flashing generic instead.
The H is better than 3G. It's more like 3.5g. You know the new 4G network being advertised HSPA.
Ok thanks for the info. I was considering flashing the 2.1 Generic but wanted to get some advice since i am what you would call a noobie.lol I pretty much did a bunch of reading and "winged it" through the flash process praying i didn't destroy my phone.
Yes, use the x10a global generic. I don't know if the newest update is available yet, but in many people's opinion 2.1.A.0.435 is better for AT&T. The new 0.16 update baseband is causing battery drain and connection problems. With global generic you will most likely get the official 2.3.3 Gingerbread update Sony just promised in a few months first.
Edit: you seem to have it down, but there is a new version of flash tool 0.2.9 that has some new features. You can root, enable JIT, install xRecovery, and remove Sony bloatware that is slowing down your phone. That may sound Greek right now, but they are the next natural things you will want to do. Check your private messages for a detailed guide with links to the downloads. It may be of some help.
Once again JBM I really appreciate your guidance with this. I have been reading alot and think i'm going to go ahead and reflash with 2.1 global generic as you said. My Baseband version is 2.1.55 and Kernel is 2.6.29 Do these need to be flashed?
The one ftf file is all you need, 2.1.A.0.435. It will probably change your baseband to 0.54, which is the one you want for AT&T.
Really, don't over think this. This is the same firmware you would have gotten from SE if you bought your X10 from a non-AT&T store. Generic in Android terms is a good thing. It means no restrictions or extra bloatware from AT&T. No need to pay for navigation and stuff like that.
Let me know how it goes.
Again you were right my baseband changed to 2.1.54 and everything is working perfect. the red x that was appearing in the status bar in place of the H and the signal strength bars is not happening and the message "no sim card in phone" has not shown up either. I think i'm going to attempt to root and add Xrecovery do i can then speed things up with JIT. I have been on my Sony Vaio all day.

Great! To use the flash tool to root, optimise(JIT) and install xRecovery, you need to set up phone first. Hit menu button / Settings / Applications and check "unknown sources". Then hit the "development" tab below and check "usb debugging". Then just turn flash tool on, and plug your phone into usb cable while the phone is still on. Do NOT mount usb connected. Then go across the tabs on the flash tool in order from left to right, root, root permissions, optimise, xrecovery. Enjoy.
XRecovery not installed

JBM, I did exactly as you said going left to right on flash tool. i did root and root permissions then optimize, the phone did a automatic reboot after Optimize finished then I went on to XRecovery. Flashtool says that "Xrecovery successfully installed". Now on Superuser there is a app called "unkown" on the apps allow screen. I do not have the Xrecovery app anywhere on my X10 app list. So I don't know what isn't right on my X10 or in the flash tool program. So I tried again installing Xrecovery again but got the same massage on flash tool and unknown in superuser. I did not do the "clean" step or the APK Installer step. I don't know enough to mess with either of those. there wasn't any indication on the phone that JIT was working either. flash tool showed it as successful also. do you know what i should try. Thanks again

Ok, xrecovery doesn't show up as an app. What you have to do to enter xRecovery is reboot your phone, and when Sony Ericsson in white letters comes up press the power button a few times or the back button a bunch of times, and the xRecovery menu will appear. It takes a bit of getting used to. If the SE circular logo appears you missed it, and you have to reboot again.
There is a new way I will help you install that allows you to enter xRecovery from the home screen using the app gscript, but you have to do it the reboot way at first.
JIT isn't something you can see either. Well scrolling the app tray should be faster and smoother than ever. Search market and install "Quadrant" and "Linpack". They will allow you to run benchmark tests. Without JIT you should get around 500 quadrant and 8 linpack. With JIT enabled you should get 800+ quadrant and 30+ linpack.
Also, to truly optimize and increase performance like you would not believe (i.e. improve your benchmark scores, battery life, available RAM, speed, responsiveness) and get rid of any lag you should uninstall any preinstalled apps you don't use. Use titanium backup from the market to uninstall system apps without needing flash tool. However, system apps cannot be restored like user apps. You have to reinstall them. Actually, check your private messages in a few minutes. I will send you the pro version of Titanium Backup. With the pro version you can "freeze" system apps, so you don't have to uninstall them if you would rather not. Also, if you freeze an app and your phone works fine you know that it is safe to uninstall.
There are some that you shouldn't remove, but here's a list of safe ones off the top of my head. Of course, if you use them keep them. There are also a few threads about this.
Timescape(all) and Face Recognition (highly recommend uninstalling these two. You won't believe the difference)
SE Backup and Restore (use Titanium Backup I am sending you)
Chinese and Korean keyboard
PC Companion
SE Sync
Play Now
Pilot
JBM I was able to enter Xrecovery with the back button. my wifi was dropping every few minutes so I cleared my Dalvik cache and that seems to have fixed it. everything is running perfect. I uninstalled acouple apps & the 2 keyboards and now my best Quadrant score is 819 up from 741 and Linpack is 34.556. I can tell now that it is running faster and more responsive.
Cool. I am incorporating a lot of what I am helping you with into an AT&T specific guide for everything you've already done, and a whole bunch more if you are up for it. I am doing it anyway, but I figure I will see how my guides work for you as I add them to the thread. There is some stuff on there already that I haven't shared with you yet, like Voice Search. Anyway, check it out, and your pm. I just sent you a couple links.

Next thing to do is upgrade xRecovery to FreeXperiaRecovery, so you don't have to reboot to get into xrecovery. You can enter from home screen. Keep an eye out for it...
First of all I would like to apologize for not so perfect English
I have U8650 and i would like to make this topic general topic for it. I know there are few topics but there is no much info in them.
I have made same topic on croatian forum for phones so i think it will be better if its on xda because there are much more people that are good in cooking cracking etc.
So lets begin
Detailed specifications can be seen on the LINK, however, the battery is 1400mAh[/ B] and not 1250 (i have sent email to gsmarena to change it but nothing hapend...)
ROOT and the original ROM
After playing with the phone I wanted too root it, after a good deal of trouble, and around 40 readed topics (without overdoing it) I came up with some knowledge, of course the problem is that the phone is currently on only few markets. (spain, croatia, turkey, australia and china i think)
To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is
ROM
It is necessary to download an official ROM
LINK
After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card
Path should look like \ dload \ update
to flash device you need to
turn it off
remove the battery for 5 seconds
put the battery back in
press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)
and will start automatic firmware upgrade
for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded
If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.
root
After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root
software needed for the root LINK
This is similar to debranding.
download root file
Put it on SD card
turn off the phone
remove the battery for 3 seconds
Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)
When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root
after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone
UNLOCK
My wife is on vip network so I had need to unlock cell
Recommendation for Tibor Szabo's
[email protected] [/ email]
contact the man, he tells you to pay € 13 at [email] [email protected] [/ email]
Send him mail with the payment for approximately 12 hours with you (he said 2-3 days al always come to 24h)[/SIZE]
if this is forbiden on xda i will remove it
If you have any questions please ask, this all is wrote on xda and some other forums i just put all together
[B]Do not think i am responsible if anything goes wrong I have done in exactly those steps and everything works normally. Everything you do yo do at your own risk.[/B]
So: D after a slightly longer introduction with u8650 came the day to put Custom rom.
Of course, for custom rom you will need root thus described above tutorial.
After puting custom rom phone is like 20% faster
few main features
Integrated flash (load all ads from the flash) loads test flash from Adobe i didnt test it much more because yesterday i put custom firmware
new driver for the camera from turkcell that means 5MP camera resolution
Better battery life
overclock processors at 780MHz (you can set it manualy)
Here is the complete list of modifications that is taken with [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=262489"]LINK[/URL]
In principle, this entire tutorial is taken from [B]Zadkyn[/B] and translated becuse he is hard spanish guy nothing is on english he is not very good at answering questions but thanks to him we have custom roms and all the improvements.

I put 1.5 version because it has corrected a couple of bugs.
Biggest object is that he removed default camera app imho it's not a problem because you can instal lg camera.
So here is tutorial
What you will not learn from linked topic (and I found out by sheer luck) is that you need to install drivers and custom "bios" to be able to put custom rom
So first things first
You will need to do procedure in this topic [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=256095"]LINK[/URL]
First download the driver for Windows 7 [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?3bvp3p42t4iqwt2"]LINK[/URL]
So these are the drivers that you install and run you will have a screen with two options press instal drivers
If you have XP and these drivers dont work download this [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?20qkr711ceuna0n"]LINK[/URL]
I have W7 so I leave to you if this is working for xp (it should work because no one has yet complained )
The second step is to download this file [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?k421vgl3xy1fgpa"]LINK[/URL] unzip it and run Instalador.bat
You have fine hacker green screen and bunch of Spanish. luckily it doesn't interest us. Go to the next step and that is putting the phone in Fastboot mode.
The third step unplug the battery cell out/in pressing VOLUME - (or the volume down) and the power button and hold for 10 seconds.
it will show you only the Huawei logo and it should only show you that.
Step Four Connect the mobile phone with the USB cable, wait until computer detects it and after a few seconds go ti fine spanish green screen and press any key
It will flash "bios" of the phone it should be ready in a minute or two there is no hurry.
then reset the cell and you should have a fine new "bios".
Check this by turning off cell battery out / in and press the Volume + (volume up) and the power button for 10 seconds.
It should appear with orange letters like from the picture
[IMG]http://postimage.org/image/2d31ltan8/[/IMG]
After you have fine new "bios" you want to put fine new rom
The first step with this rom download [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?8qd05qhv5flhips"]LINK[/URL]
The second step is to put the zip in the root of your memory card.
The third step going into the BIOS mod So turn off the cell battery out / in the volume + power button for 10 seconds.
You get orange letter menu now navigate with the volume + and - and with the power Buton you confirm it.
The fourth step choose the factory data wipe, then wipe the cache and then advanced wipe devil cache (not the exact name but you will seen it)
Each time when you choose wipe you need to confirm it, always navigate to yes i want to wipe.
Fifth step Return to start of the BIOS and select the custom recovery and navigate to the zip file called zadkin and select it.
When you choose it will start to flash for me lasted about 4minute when it's finished, reboot the system and if everything went well (and there is no reason why not) you will get the boot menu with zad logo.
For first time cell loaded few minutes so patience.
After that you have a nice Costum rom that is faster and more economical with better battery life stronger processor and better camera
If you have questions feel free to shoot.
The same as in the first part of post you do all on yours risk and I am not responsible for any problems and errors. I did everything according to these instructions and I got what i wanted.
[B]CODES[/B]
codes for the service menu
[B]*#*# 2846579 #*#*[/B]
code for the info on your phone
[B]*#*# 4636 #*#*[/B]
All of this is wroted on few forums and i just wanted to put all in one place on the most visited forum for android (xda)
Also i would very like if someone with more expirience can read this tutorial and suggest something.
one more thing that i left out is RAM limitation and i hope to get some answers about that.
also if this helps someone feel free to thank me
Best regards
just flashed your custom rom without problems. its amazing what people can do..!! it seems based on the yoigo firmware and you have english and spanish as languages. everything you need is included filemanager app2sd etc. i like it very much.. thanks.
edit: could you kindly tell what the flashing of the bios (with pc) exactly is for?! thanks
If you dont flash that bios you cant wiPe devilk cache and you cant instal modified rom so basicly puting new bio is must for moded roms
It will be great if someone else can try this
As for wiping the data, there was only one thing possible to wipe. everything else was just a line of "NO" without option to change it.
I now have like 3 programs running in background thats cool... and of course its cool that many programs are removed that cant be removed otherwise (like documents2go trial)
But thE stock yoigo firmware is good too... It already comes with the possibility to install apps to SD u dont need extra program for that
EDIT :and i just come back to phone.. i left it on charger over night.. and its in the orange BIOS MODE !!!! so it crashed i guess ??? bad
EDIT2: Couldnt access 3g internet even tho i had the right profile .... will test some more
Unofrtunately the custom ROM has still a lot of bugs, be careful :-(
yeah its BS... i am going back to original yoigo at least there i can make it install all aps to SD automatically .... this hacked firmware cant even transfer most new aps to SD..
i hope i will have no problems cos of flashed bios...
thanks anyways both of you
edit: 2 more bugs.. adblock dont work (some java error crash) and the 11mb adobe flash cant be copied to sd or removed at all
out of 27 apps (a few downloaded by me) 7 can be copied to SD and 20 cant

huawei u 8650 phone is dead
hi ,after installing official firmware ,my phone got brick.i also made backup with cwm recovery,but now my phone only show black screen only alittle blink of light when i push power bottom,how can i solve this problem
I don't understand, if you root your phone yo unlock it from its carrier? I mean, free to use with whatever sim card from any mobile company?
Didnot work on U8652
12/14/11: I tried the rom upgrade on U8652 ATT fusion and received "install error' after unpacking.
Any suggestions?
12/15/11: I successfully installed the 'recoveryclockmod' after finding the proper android usb driver for winXp - 'pulse drivers'
then installed the custom rom. But the phone details on the installed custom rom says its a U8650 model not U8652.
Thanks OP
Thanks OP
I followed your instructions and installed recoveryclockmod and cyanogen_u8650-benru on my U8652. Now I finally have root and a nice ROM to play around with. Thanks OP
Does the root part work on a Huawei U8650 Sonic that came with android 2.3.5 and newer ROM ( U8650V100R001C343B851 ) ?
I need to root it to be able to use reverse USB tethering

unlockroot doesn't work, i tried the latest version (2.2) and i get the same error "Failed to get shell root !"
I have fried my U8650
I attempted a firmware update (official)... stage one completed... phone restarted and got stuck with a grey screen (no logo nothing just blank grey screen) all the soft buttons are turned on. constantly.
It wont go in to recovery, a simple touch to the power button turns it on and then it wont turn off unless I take the battery out.
I tried flashing with DC unlocker but my system wont detect it, I have installed the drivers provided at huawei site.
the phone was just a week old and am real pissed.
worst part, i did all that after reading this post
Anyone has any idea, how i can get it to work once again.

I didn't try this method and I'm only suggesting it because it sound like you almost bricked your phone.
You could try installing ClockworkMod recovery using fastboot (here is a guide for that androidforums.com/sonic-all-things-root/476263-root-guide.html just follow 1-9 ) and then flash the original rom for your phone (I found a list of stock roms here android.modaco.com/topic/350367-huawei-u8650 )
Dont forget to wipe data/cache before flashing the new rom ( this might be the cause for the state your phone is in now )
Update:
Got the drivers by installing hi space and letting it search for appropriate drivers. Worked real smooth.
Now Computer detects phone. But the instalador.bat keeps on searching for device :S
Stuck and stumped once again.
I want to believe but all I see is darkness... or a mildly lit lcd with greyness to be precise. thoughts, ideas anyone.
Thanks man. A ray of hope finally.
Only one problem.
My system won't detect the phone. When i plug it in via usb, it turns on. I mean all the buttons turn on, screen turns dark grey from dead black. But that is it. Computer wont detect it. I am running on windows 7.
Another system detected it which was running on XP but it wouldn't accept the drivers.

I am very much thankful to XDA and many other sites whose text assisted me in recovering my mobile.
WARNING: VERY LARGE TEXT BELOW AND ITS JUST MY EXPERIENCE, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF SOMEONE TRY TO GET ANY IDEAS FROM IT AND BRICK HIS PHONE
I purchased Nokia 1 (TA-1047). My only objective was to automatically record sound from 8AM to 2 PM. So I started root process (Devmode: OK, boot loader unlock: OK, TWRP flashing and running: OK)
BUT WHAT? TWRP is asking for a password... this was not provided in the guide. I tried blank password... not OK. Then I searched the Internet and learned that if I cancel on password screen and then Wipe data then it will be fine. I did that, then made full backup (ADB), and flashed Magisk (ADB)..OK. Restarted the phone and "bump": Phone told me it failed to decrypt and then it went into TWRP boot-loop.
Then I searched again and found TA-1060 recovery bin (from this site) and stock images. I flashed TA-1060 recovery (at that time I did not know that I could go to Boot-loader from TWRP and wasted like an hour to do it using buttons - Correct method is: power off the phone, connect the usb cable, press power and volume down till you see android logo). After flashing 1060 recovery I was able to reset phone and "voila" Magisk was also there.
Now I installed Schedule Voice Recorder, Team-Viewer Host (to transfer big files remotely), App locker (to lock settings and play store), Autostart and Stay (because recorder was getting closed), Dropbox and Dropsync --- and you can guess what would have happened. My mobile kept closing them randomly even if I made Recorder and AutoStart system app and whitelisted in developer setting and set to NOT optimized battery. So I tried to disable Nokia bloat-wares and damaged the system again. This happened for a few iterations before I realized that the Nokia 1 RAM is not sufficient to handle all these apps and I got an idea to upload earlier android version (Spoiler! Hard-brick is coming).
I searched on internet for similar mobile and found Huawei Y3 2017 with same chipset and configuration, Y5 with same chipset but higher configuration. Downloaded stock rom for both. First tried flashing boot and system from TWRP but failed saying that size was different? Downloaded SP flash tool, somehow passed through drivers issue (this would require another thread ). Tried flashing (with formatting) both Y3 2017 UO00 (which was different chipset but i altered scatter file) and Y5 but it failed on some check error. After that my phone was hard bricked!
Then I downloaded nokia 1 stock firmware but it was bad scatter file (only nvram and nvdata was showing), altered it, format+flash: failed again. Searched on internet and found that if I flash wrong preloader then I am done. I was not sure if I had already done it. I altered the scatter file again to include only preloader and thankfully it showed success but any other rom after it, it failed to flash. Found something like Nokia 3 DA and tried it but also failed.
FINALLY: I found nokia 1 nb0 rom and nb0 extractor, extracted rom using that, flash it and "voila" my phone was back alive. Tried to root but failed (because serial number was not same as before and new number did not work). Then I started iterations by mixing roms from my backup and using my "proinfo.bin" and stock rom my phone revived with my own serial number. BUT, then I flashed stock preloader and lk but everything else from Huawei, it failed with check error and then also refused to format for stock rom. Searched on internet about manual formatting, did that (WARNING: starting from address where preloader ends otherwise you would format your preloader as well) then it was back okay.
Rooted again, copied scheduler in sys-priv, whitelisted, not optimize battery. Also team viewer host (normal settings) and dropbox and sync (normal settings). As a work around I have now scheduled the app to record 24 hours instead of 8AM to 2PM so that it always remain as foreground app. 11 hour testing so far so good.
QUESTION: Can I not upload lesser android version (e.g. 4.4 or 5 or 6)? If I can then how.?
UPDATE: The Recorder is killed by OS again as well as team viewer host (even when recorder apk was in system/priv-app)
Is there any way to keep it always ON?
Or is there any way to installed some previous version of android?

Every Nokia 1 user is facing background app crash problem. Infact Nokia 5 users also. It simply crashes background apps like pressing force close and as of now there is no solution. we have to wait until nokia releases a fix.
By the way which build number are you using?

Maybe you have so many apps in the background, I had Instagram, YouTube and Facebook life in the background and I get rare force closes or I might be lucky I have a Nokia 1 TA-1060

No its an os bug from nokia side. It fails to work as it should after a particular update. Maybe u r not facing coz u have only 3 apps that too light ones from good app makers, google and fb. But if u add some more like any call recorder ( as mentioned by op)u would also face same problem i believe. It doesnt thows a FC but simple kills the app in background and u dont get notified.
UPDATE :- Here is the solution
