you have to use fastboot to get back the streakmod recovery... there is multirecovery flasher in this forum. search for it...
if you ask me how to do fastboot.. sorry... somebody will answer it for you...

i know how to get into fastboot using the camera and power buttons @ startup then pick fastboot
on the development section, find the thread of DSC Rom, on first page you will see the download section there, download the " DSC flash me 2 pack" run the command from your pc while is fast boot mode, and you will have the streakmod back. this is the easiest way I know.

You already donwload the " DSC flash me 2 pack" right? Then, enter the fastboot mode, you just run flash.cmd (inside the " DSC flash me 2 pack" folder after you extract that file) . After that, you just need to followed the instruction there.

It would be easier to diagnose if you would be more specific.
Please copy-paste the command you gave and response you got.

smokku's right, does it say 'fastboot' on the streak screen?
Is the device in fast boot mode?

phone is in fastboot mode and says as much on the phone screen. what i am currently trying to do is flash back to 1.6 and the guide i was following said flash stock dell recovery. i downloaded the stock recovery file and in cmd i typed
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
i was in the correct directory and the recovery.img file was there
the cmd then says sending recovery.img... and sits there. it doesnt fail it just does nothing. ive tried flashing several different recoveries including the clockworkmod recovery and i still get nothing but sending...

still getting no response from fastboot. i had this problem before and i just kept unlplugging the usb and reinstalling drivers. but its not working for me this time
Right the way to do it is download the recovery image from the last link download the stock recovery from here
http://android.modaco.com/content/d...1-6-downloads-how-tos-rom-superboot-recovery/
open them both up
in the r1-4399-streak-recovery delete the RECOVERY and copy over the recovery from the other file and rename it recovery
put device in fastmode and start the windows batch and the recovery will install
If i ever need to install a stock recovery just install it into the r1-4399-streak-recovery rename it recovery and it will install every time

well i finally was able to flash recovery, boot, and system after a reboot of my pc and phone and reinstaling drivers before each flash. now im stuck at the dell logo. ugh...
update: was able to flash to stock 02 1.6 rom. via the link lufc provided (thank you) i guess i'll have to retry flashing back to stock att 1.6 after a few more people have tweaked it and make an update.pkg for it.

Yeah i got stuck at the dell log a couple times before it successfully flashed. I think something is up with fastboot not properly writing the files because i'll flash the clockworkmod recovery 3 or 4 times in a row with no result. give up on it and flash stock recovery then when i go into recovery mode, its the clockworkmod one :/

i just think my PC and fastboot dont agree with eachother. before i can flash anything i have to uninstall the drivers, restart my pc, reboot phone into fastboot again, reinstall drivers, and then flash what im trying to flash one at a time, then restart the whole process to get any results on what i try to flash next. I have no idea whats up with the recoveries because i ran into the same issue of flashing clockworkmod and having it work fine till next reboot and its back to stock.

HI
I have the phone in bootloop and would like to boot it into recovery-clockwork to flash a new file. I dont know how to run ADB. In download mode ADB is not working.
Please help.
Thank you
Put it into download mode and flash a version of Clockworkmod recovery through ODIN. It will then boot into recovery.

Is this the right section where to ask for this kind of questions??
in dowload mode you can only flash a recovery or a rom. there's no adb available.

I guess it would be. It's not a very general question. Though it would fit in the Clockworkmod thread.
Hi,
About an week ago I bought the Vodafone Smart II, first thing I did was rooting it, so I can remove the apps Vodafone send with it.
After that I saw there was an update. Without thinking I did the update and after that I had no recovery anymore. Goes straight to "Are you sure you wanna delete all files and reformat?" *Not the real message, but something like that.
After searching here I foud a recovery for my device, but after flashing it, there was a new problem. The touch buttons aren't working anymore in the recovery.
Volume buttons are working well for scrolling through the menu items, but I can't select when with the touch home button.
Anyone knows what to do or try?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my grammar
I've same problem here...
the same problem here..........But i have someting to tell...
I buy 2 vodafone smart II one for me and another one for my girlfrind.
Mine i do update2 e them i try root it. now i have superuser working but in teh TCT recovery home button dont work.
my girfriend mobile teh same update2 same recovery i have all working. I do 1 backup and put the boot, recovery and system on my mobile and dont work.
My phone is a black ship? LOL
Sorry for my english i am portuguese

Use this recovery and flash it with fastboot

If it doesn't work, flash the system.img, custpack.img and data.img of an original Stock rom, and after that do the update 2 (it will fix the touch buttons)
To regain the recovery and root in Update 2 simply use "fastboot reboot recovery" in adb and inside the recovery do the "update.zip" trick to root it
Thnx

No need to flash the old recovery image.

fastboot problem
Hi guys,
I am noob not only here in XDA developers but also on Android tweaking, so excuse me if I mess up with terminology.
What I wanted to do is to provide superuser permissions to my device but before that I decided to do some "warm up".
After performing a "reset to defaults" I updated to ΟΤΑ 2.3.7 update 5 and I messed up the bootloader and fastboot functionality, as the OP stated.
From now on, on rebooting and trying to enter recovery (power and +vol) I get the 1st attached screenshot.
I successfully got into recovery menu through pc command line tool (adb reboot recovery), see 2nd screenshot attached. Adb tool works fine, whatever I try using fastboot tool from my pc seems to fail.
Without this I am unable to flash a different recovery on my device, right?
Am I missing something?
Thanks, in advance for any further info.
I am at your disposal for any further detail I could provide.
Does not work for me. The cmd screen just flashes, I could not even read what it shows.
got struck up with boot logo and not getting inside, I tried to install new rom and it got struck up, I have rooted my mobile and have recovery mode, when i try to restore my backup it shows checksum md5 mismatch, and cant able to fix the problem,
Can anyone help.....?
Thanks in advance

There is a guide around for you in the Q&A/General Section.
You should be careful when rooting phone and flashing stuff. The acts u mention above, i think you ca recover very easily. Just read the guides and follow these steps.
1. Flash a proper recovery for ICS or JB (whichever stock rom u had).
2. Download a proper ROM, ICS or JB (whichever you want to)
3. Flash the zip thorugh recovery and wait for it to complete.
4. Turn off the phone,
5. Boot to fastboot mode and flash the boot.img files (which is the kernel and it is different for each rom)
Actually i think flashing the correct boot.img will solve ur issue but you better follow the steps i mentioned above.

Yasir

No No No No No NO.
Rom.zip , and i repeat "*.zip" are meant to be flashed via recovery.
for boot.img, and i repeat "*.img" files are meant to be flash via FASTBOOT mode. You need proper exe file on a pc for that. "fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img"

Then use another recovery.
I wanted to unlock my bootloader and install a custom rom but my windows won't recognise the fastboot mode so I started up with linux
I saw tutorials of recoveryX.exe and flashtool which only works for windows so I was searching for a manual way so that I could do it in the terminal ..
so I found some tutorial online which told me to flash some file something like
fastboot flash boot xyz.inf I don't remember the extension perfectly but it wasn't a zip or an img ..
and after that my phone turned off, I can still go for fastboot mode but I don't see anything on the screen please help me
I do not have windows so I cannot use flashtool or recoveryX.exe

Congrats for the brick.
Can you still get into fastboot/flash mode?
I've yet to hear about someone who used rexoveryx and it worked, forget all about it.
There is flashtool for linux, you can use it.
BTW, the only files you flash with fastboot, are with img, elf or sin extention.

I have downloaded flash tool for linux but I cannot get it work .. I cannot get it to install or anything
isn't there a way to do all this manually through Terminal Fastboot commands?
That's the only thing that I can manage to work.
Edit : I have flashed the boot.img file from the downloaded ROM I did it this way (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
and now fortunately the phone starts and also now can be charged but the OS doesn't start .. I think this can be because I haven't flashed the OS but only the boot img?
what can I do now?
P.S : I cannot use the Flashtool or RecoveryX :/ so if there's a way to do it via fastboot or something it will really be appreciated
