I was using Type Fresh to change system fonts on stock 2.2 rom. Fresh type didn't tell me to reboot like it was supposed to. After manual reboot, it stopped at the Dell logo screen.
The factory reset didn't resolve it.
I found the update.pkg from the xda streak wiki. I can flash it successfully from the sd card, but at reboot, it still stalls at the logo screen. I left it there for several minutes, and it was still was stuck there.
yes but its a soft brick you should be able to fix it with a bit of reading here on XDA i would recommend the multi flasher tool it is easy to use but installing the drivers i think was a little difficult so yea bud good luck also did you try factory reset
Yeah, factory reset was the first thing I tried...
I'd run the QDL repair tool on it. If you can get your hands on it.
If not try the factory reset a couple of times consecutively and remember to give it plenty of time.
A factory reset of the DELL android system with all the junk they have in it can take up to 20 minutes to boot

I had few trouble getting 2.2 installed

2) press both vol keys and power
3) select "Update from update.pkg from SD"
4) (re)Install update.zip (Steves) using Clockwork
5) Reboot and press both vol keys
6) "Factory reset"
tada!!! thats how I managed to get pass the Dell Logo.

Thanks for the tip, I read in some other threads about 3 mins. But last night I let it flash from the sd card, and left it to reboot overnight while I slept. This afternoon, I turned it on again and it worked!
Thanks!

You can't install 1.9.0 with the stock recovery so you would have to tell him all the steps to get into fastboot and flash a custom recovery.

it rebooted after i installed v1 rom and now i am stuck at the dell logo it does the transition, and then on the dell logo sometimes it does it twice but nothing any ideas?
Mine went that way...perform a hard reset. That should do it....
both volume keys and power on then reset factory settings?
it is still doing it
try going back to your original rom and start back again
Do you have clockwork and if you go to install update.zip do you get the green screen with scroll with volume up/down then select zip from sd card? If so i had this problem and had to re-flash clockwork recovery then select the zip for 2.2. Hope you resolve

It happened to me as well. I reflashed 0.2, did a factory reset, then flashed v1.0 and it works.

You go into recovery and format everything....cache....etc... and restart it holding the volume buttons and press go back to factory settings nd that does the trick

after flashing the 2.2 rom, u should do a wipe before restarting the phone
did anyone find a fix for the freezing dell logo screen. I have an att 1.6 that i upgraded all the way to 2.1 and decided to try 2.2 im running into the same problem of the frozen dell logo screen. it does its animation 1 or 2 times then just stays there.i reflashed clockwork twice and factory reset multiple times with still no luck. at this point i just wanna go back to 2.1 but cant seem to get into my sd card from the recovery.
Turn the streak off, then boot into recovery (pressing volume up and down while turning on. ) then select option 2. This puts you in clockwork recovery. From there you can toggle usb on and off.
Also i had the sake problem with the sell logo. I went into clockwork recovery and in the partition menu mounted everything. That seemed to work.

What up everyone.
So here is my problem. I finally decided to upgrade to DJ_Steve 1.4.6 last week. I first went to O2 2.1. Then flash the clockwork recovery, flash the 2 files (amss and camera fix), and then flashed 1.4.6 and got stuck a Dell logo loop. Then tired to flash his 1.1.1 first, the two files (amss and camera fix) and I still was unable to get past the Dell logo loop. After trying the methods posted to get past the boot loop (none worked for me), I tried the QDL Tool and still was not able to get there due to a fastboot driver issue (which still has not been resolved). I'm using Win 7 64bit. I followed the QDL videos to the T. Here is where my new problem began. I just uninstalled the ADB driver and reinstalled it then ran the QDL Tool and it failed again at fastboot. Now my streak is stuck in another loop that I have not seen before. Here it is....
After powering on, I get;
Dell logo
white screen (wait for factory reset)
Dell logo
and then its starts all over again.
I tried to get into Fastboot (power + camera) but I can't. I also tried to reinstall the 8105 2.1 update.pkg from SD (both Volume + power, option 2) and I still get the loop.
I am not sure what I did but I would greatful if someone would walk me through this issue and get me on DJ_Steve's 2.2 1.4.6 or at least back to OS 2.1. I've been at this for over a week.
Thanks in advance

No I haven't. The flashing of the Streak has really been more challenging than any other device I have ever owned. I am also waiting for the battery to charge. Going to try something new and will let you know if it works.

And
Okay!!! the Streak flash file worked. Weird that the QDL Tool from streakdroid did not. just follow the instruction and you will golden.
THANKS GUYS!!!!! My week of torture is now over..
well i have a version 347 build no 15274 and i tried to root it and then it got stuck at the dell logo so i did a factory reset and that didnt help then i tried to use an update.pkg and always got signature verification failed, so i booted into fastmood and started flashing different recovery images and basebands, and nothing worked the last baseband and recovery image i flased was 111 so i tired to use the update package for the 111 and that doesnt seem to work. so i tried another factory reset and now everytime i attempt to get into fastboot i get stuck in a factory reset loop with a white screen with factory reset text reboot white screen reboot on and on...and every update.pkg i try doesnt seem to get anywhere but a blank screen and this is very fustrating i have been at this for 10 hours straight please help!!!!
Of course you must make sure you have installed the correct recovery that matches with the .pkg you are using...
When it boots up, hold both volume buttons, then choose factory reset from the First menu. Then do it again.
If that doesn't work, you may have messed something up. Look up QDL tool for the Streak and try to upgrade that way.

There is a post about a bricked streak in the General Dell Streak forum. There are links for the QDL tool and instructions there.
I had to use the QDL tool to get my streak back from near death. And then to prep it for a warranty return since I have some weird issue with a flashing light restart loop when my Sim card is installed.
Dell Streak through Rogers(Canada)
Ive read all of the "bricked streak" threads already and none match how my phone bricked. I was in the process of installing superboot according to the cyanogenmod streak wiki's instructions. After it installed it started hanging at the boot screen so as any good idiot who just bricked his phone, I googled and hunted on here until I couldn't type simple words. So I found one fix guide that I tried and all has worked except installing the stock rom. I will list the guild, its brief one issue I had to substitute the Rogers rom for an O2 rom as I couldn't find a rogers rom for the streak.
1. Download the stock recovery ROM and stock official Dell ROM. Make sure Dell PC suite has installed.
2. Rename the stock official Dell ROM to "Update.pkg" and copy it to your Dell Streak SD card.
3. Turn on your Dell Streak while holding camera button to boot Streak into fast boot mode.
4. Tap on "Fast boot Mode" button, wait 10 seconds then connect to your PC.
5. Open a command prompt, and navigate to the folder where your "fast boot-windows.exe" is stored.
6. Enter "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 to your Dell Streak.
7. Once the phone displays "Recovery Done", remove the battery and insert it again.
8. Hold down vol up and vol down button while turning on your Streak to boot into Recovery mode, and choose option 2.
9. Wait till it installs and it'll boot into Android.
You have finished restoring Dell Streak to factory condition.
Method 2
1. Put update.pkg to SD card root folder.
2. Power up Streak whilst holding both volume buttons.
3. Select option 2 - "software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD card" by pressing camera button.
4. Press camera button again Job done.

Okay so I figured out the solution, I need to recover it to stock from what I understand. so I've followed the guide(s) and I still have the phone hang after "install update.pkg" with just a blackscreen. I've tried to put the streakmod recovery but I cant get it to install either, hangs on blackscreen as well.
Guys it will be great help if some body can give me the links to the official dell streak 2.1 rom.

Rogers Dell Streak 5 - Totally Desperate Now
Great Forum everyone! Thanks for years of support. After three days of searching, scanning and racking my tiny brain for a solution I am finally breaking down and reaching out to all you good ppl ...I fear after several years of flashing various devices (albeit somewhat amateurishly) I have finally created my first true paperweight. Surely not!
Whilst trying to root my Dell Streak 5 using the Superboot method I think I have managed to brick it somehow...
Tried the method outlined at the beginning of this thread and all goes well until step 8 when my phone boots into Android system recovery <2e>. From here I have manually tried to "apply sdcard:update.zip" this hunts for the file but presumably its looking for a .zip extension not Update.pkg as I have named it. I tried on the off chance renaming the Update.pkg to .zip but then AR says 'bad package'.
Here' what I know:
Dell Streak 5 (Rogers) - Carrier unlocked via Streak Unlocker software (paid for)
Device boots up to Dell screen and hangs on logo, sometimes the logo splash
appears and hangs other times it just flashes Dell logo repeatedly.
When plugged in without battery and left volume key held down device did get recognized as A Qualcomm CDMA MSM device or something. So I don't think its completely dead.
Totally Lost at this point and desperate for help
Any suggestion or additional info would be most helpful.
Thanks
It happens when you using Clockworkmod.
I recommend you to use Streakmod. I had try Clockworkmod as recovery image. But it doesn't work well. I'm using Streakmod and it goes pretty well.

Guess it's time to part it out.
Hi everybody, please help! (Sorry for my bad English)
-I have a Dell Streak 5 (Unlocked Version) installed Android 2.2 from Dell.
-I tried to upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3.3 using fastbook. Everything work fine, and then I tried to Root my device, Streak working fine even I turn off and turn it back on.
-After a week, the Dell cannot connect to the internet due to Network Connection error. I tried to turn it off and then it stuck at Dell logo when I turn it on.
I spent over 10 hours to fix it but it still stuck at Dell logo.
-Please give me your advice (Include steps are perfect) any advices will be appreciated.
*What I tried*
1. Installed Dell Drive ( Windows 7 recognize my Dell Streak via Fastboot)
2. Tried Retail ROM 360 and 407 with suitable recovery downloaded from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5
3. Tried Custom ROM
Longhorn 2.1V2
Longhorn 2.1v1
Longhorn 2.2v4
Longhorn 2.7_Red
All are from http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs
And Custom Rom 407 (Don't remember where I downloaded this firmware)
*When select update.zip (Custom Rom) it take approximate 5 minutes to display a confirmation. After I accept the Rom installed, a new line say installed complete, but the Dell still stuck at Dell logo. I do not know what recovery version suite with those custom ROM above so I download the two latest version and tried them all (Recovery 3.27 and 3.28beta)
*When select update.pkg, it does not show me anything except the black screen with light (I mean it look like a screen with Dell logo but there is no Dell logo in this case)
*One more problem, the Dell won't charge, I plug it to USB port but some time it display 0% battery and turn off automatically.
Addition Information:
Modem version = GAUSB1A1136000
OS Version = GBUSB1A134700
Battery Charge Disabled (Do not know how to turn it on in fastboot)
Charge-State 1%0%, (While I am look at it now it raised to 3%0%)
Thanks.
did you do factory reset (dell) and wipe ?
I followed these step below.
How to Flash with a COMPLETE wipe
1.) Download zip file to SD card
2.) Reboot in Streakmod Recovery
3.) Make Nandroid Backup - I skip this step because nothing to backup
4.) After backup, install Longhorn_2.X.zip
5.) Perform wipe data/factory reset from SM Recovery (blue letters)
6.) Reboot and perform a Dell Factory Reset (white letters)
7.) Phone will reboot. First boot can/will take a few minutes.

Seems to me that something happend to the internal sd card, could be that there are some bad sectors on the card.

After it gets through flashing, AS SOON as you see the DELL logo then press the volume buttons and go into recovery and select factory reset.... In other words after it flashes don't let it try to boot without doing a factory reset

I thinc is the memory card, it has a problem a bad sector or something, you should try to replace the card if what cdzo72 said doesn't work.
I tried more than 3 times with 360 ROM. 1 time it ask me to confirm after select update.pkg, and the rest does not ask me to confirm, just black screen in approximate 15minutes and then reboot, after that stuck at Dell logo. I tried to use another external SD card. Custom ROM can recognize it but it's still not help.
They mean the internal card hiding beneath the plastic in the battery compartment. You either have to disassemble the Streak or cut away a section of the plastic to get to it.
