So finally replacing my Eris, getting an Xperia Play. Just want to say thanks to all the devs that helped make my Eris not suck. And a particular thanks to Workshed and all the guys who helped make GSB possible. Giving my niece my Eris, so I'll prolly still be droppin in to make sure her experience was as good as mine.
Thanks again Devs. Best community around.
According to several members that have contacted DELL, the official Honeycomb OTA is supposed to roll out within 48 hours.
We'd love to have someone there w/ HC experience to help us tweak things out and get it flashed!

Hello fellow xda members,
I know many devs and community members are busy enjoying and developing for many new shiny phones and tablet, but today i turn and ask for your help.
There is a small community of DELL Streak 7 owners along with ONE DEV who are trying to bring some life and a lot of improvements into our small and pitiful tablet running Tegra2.
Our current Honeycomb 3.2 build is running off the XOOM dump. We have some features and errors that of course, because there is no native dump for the streak, are having problems fixing.
I come asking as a poor newb, because i really tried to learn how to learn to modify ROMs and i couldn't do it, for your support.
Our one and only dev right now is DJ_Steve (Click here for profile), who has done and continues to do a freaking amazing job. He has achieved what many thought was not possible; making honeycomb work for our small tablet.
If any of you guys out there have any time and ability to spare, we would REALLY appreciate your support and expertise.
DELL has said they would release a HC update, but as we know, so has every other android manufacturer; most lie.
So, I come representing many, and humbly ask, will you help us out?
If you feel as though you can, please do not hesitate to contact DJ_Steve or visit our small part of paradise, as our link is below.
******7/29 UPDATE*********
We would truly really appreciate the support of any and all developers who can contribute in any possible way.
If it's of any incentive, you can now get the DELL Streak 7 @ Staples for $200+Tax after you apply this $100 coupon:

Up again. We now have an additional dev onboard as well as some members who've started learning android rom compiling!
Please don't hesitate to post on our forums or contact me or dj_steve if you can help out
would be nice to get more devs working on the streak7. I would be happy if one could get gingerbread running on it.
Just wanted to thank all the devs for their awesome work on this phone. If it wasn't for you guys I would have went crazy waiting for my upgrade but you kept this phone relevant. I just went and picked up the droid bionic today and have already rooted it. Just waiting for CWM and some ROMs to start coming. This phone is a beast I would recommend it to anyone. I hope to see some of the eris devs working on the bionic sometime soon! Thanks again, you guys are awesome at what you do!
I love the idea of making a post just to thank devs! Because of you all i got to have so much fun with my Eris and it usually was faster than other peoples' newer phones! and it ran Gingerbread when everyone else had FroYo!! Thank you all for your selflessness and all your hard work!
Thanks again to all the Devs who made a phone that Verizon stopped supporting, last year because it would never get Froyo. But you guy achieved that and then some by putting Gingerbread on the Eris. You guys made my phone fun again, I was sad when I upgraded to the Bionic, because my Eris might be able to beat it. The Eris will always live on in the Xda forums. Thank you again to all the devs you made my phone fun again.
I upgraded to the LTE Galaxy Nexus today and I wanted to thank all of the devs for keeping my little Eris chugging along I will not forsake this forum and will continue to flash ROMs (especially ICS ROMs) on my Eris. And I also wanted to thank all of the nice people here in the forum, you guys rock :3
Congrats on the purchase. I too upgraded to the GNEX and after playing with it for a bit Im confident this and the one I got for my girlfriend as well will serve us well for the next 2 years??
We both purchased the Eris when it launched but she couldnt deal with it being slow so I acquired hers and had one to use and one to test. Im running stock Sense on one and Nonsensikal on the other one. I have no intentions of putting either out to pasture.
hi,
when there will be a custom rom of JB??? JB has some very genious features which would be soooo nice to have!!!!!
For HTC One x and S III it´s already existing!!
Thank you,

Please stop asking for Jelly Bean. I have seen thread after thread of people asking this. Developers will get to it when they have the time! Most of those guys just do this as a hobby in the little amount of free time they have, so we shouldn't bother them

This phone definitely needs more support, it's one of he best dual core smartphones on the market... I can't believe we still can't unlock it without paying... come on guys, please do something...

***in my old nagging mother voice*** You haven't even finished eating that ice cream sandwich, and you're already begging for jelly beans?

If you so desperately wanted an unlocked phone, why did you buy this one?
Reasons this phone doesn't have more developers:
Locked BL
Not unlocked to all carriers
Was released with an obsolete OS
You knew that at release, yet you still bought this phone, not the GNex or another phone. Now deal with your decision.

wow you just got ics after waiting a year and thats not good enough for you?
There is a jellybean alpha rom out if you want it so badly. No, I don't have a link. There is currently no wifi, no audio, 1x data only, etc. However, it is jellybean if you're that desperate. The source code was just released. Give the devs some time to work their magic. Also, I recommend installing google now on whatever ics rom you're on (including stock.) It works wonders even without voice.
I agree with the other guy
You guys should really stop being a bunch of whiney people. If you say that this phone has no support... how about you learn to do some programming/coding yourself and do it? Let the devs get to it when they can, they're probably just trying to make it.. ahem... like butter.

2¢...
Think about this for a second...
Maybe, JUST maybe, someone didn't know much about android devices before they bought their razr, which was generously promoted and advertised, and they just bought a new device based on its good stats.
Now, that they have had their hands on such a device, now they are curious as to why everyone else is getting JB before this hefty hunk of equipment...
Don't assume that everyone knew that Verizon was about to screw them over with locked bootloaders.
Granted, most people in "the community" would have researched this before purchasing a device, but not everyone has been here that long and some need help catching up to speed.
Lets welcome newcomers, and try to shed some light on the shady happenings over at Big Red and try to steer future android fans away from their locked down devices...
QUIT BEING SO NEGATIVE! ITS JUST A QUESTION.

How is it that a Junior member does not flame people but multiple Senior members do. This is not the first post like this. I have voiced my option many times on this issue. Last time it was a US Soldier in Afghanistan with questions.
Thank you Junior member for having common sense and looking at the situation from a bias point of view.

I couldn't agree more and this is the best, most well thought out reply i have seen in a while. it was just a basic question a simple in due time would have sufficed. like my mother said, if you don't have something nice to say, dont say anything at all.
motorola revealed its jellybean update schedule... xt912 is there but sadly no xt910
