Hi All,
I have Dell Streak 5 with Android Version - Froyo 2.2.2, Baseband Version - GAUSB1A135500-EU, Kernel Version - 2.6.32.9-perf, Build Number - 16077.
I want to upgrade froyo to gingerbread, so please let me know the process of upgrading & also applicable links for downloading the softwares & steps required.
i suggest not to upgrade if the current rom is working correctly to you...
upgrading would always have its significant problem ... if you are prepared to handle all the problems that may arise...
goto to dsc thread and start from dsc 1.0 ...

What kind of problems may be expected from the best of the custom ROMs listed at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs? Which of those ROMs would be best for the retail version of the Streak 5?

like i said... if it is working as it should, dont upgrade... but if you want to try and experience it yourself, try dsc 1.0 first... then try others when you become familiar... there is no absolute problem because everyone face issues quite differently...
This is my first android phone so flashing roms was a huge challenge for me. But well worth the time. Currently using CM7 port and it has a lot more functions that I enjoy.
must be in gingerbread ,because more fast ,more stable ,front face camera. I flash all the roms that post in xda-dev.,now i am on [ROM] Miui-Lewa 2.3.7 beta.
I'm still on stock, never had a problem with it so never had enough urge to try anything else. I will probably flash whatever rom DJSteve comes up with though. (if he does) as it's bound to be a major step up.
can u help me ; show me the step by step to update my dell streak 5

Hi byakuya,
There are many many topic to read, sure you will be confused, so did I when I started. The best advice given to me by senior members here was to get familiarize with xda-developers.com. But anyway, here is how I got started:
1) There are forums divided into 5 sections at here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=695
I think you know this already, correct?
2) There is Dell Streak 5 wiki here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Dell_Streak
a) Scroll below, and you will find Stock ROMs and Recoveries links. - Note, still you have to find specific forums to tell you more. The more the better!
DO NOT go blindly doing things.
b) Scroll below more, and you will find Custom ROM title with link to the Custom ROM page.
Or you could just go to this link directly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs
On that ROMs page I mention, scroll below until you see
_n0p_ DSC 1.0 2.3.3 407 Yes Mar 26, 2012 Link Mirror
***You must click the Mirror that will start the downloading. Note, the Link is no more there, maybe _nop_ has taken it out.
I just recently download the DSC v1.0 and flash it, it works, but I did not use it more than 30 minutes as I was just testing a short while. I can't say more.
One more thing, you really got to read more, I am still learning too. It does requires patience and calmness, but it would help from getting into big trouble later. Reading is a MUST.
A Senior Member, Strephon Alkhalikoi, shared me this link that explain Kernel & Baseband difference :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574886
And in that post you can find, Theonew, Recognized Contributor, share this link on Android Terms,Slang,Definitions & Guides !Revised! UPDATED!! 06/12/2013 :-

OK. Hope that will help.

Hey guys
I am looking for a very fast and stable Custom ROM and i really can´t decide wich one to choose. Please tell me what do u think and what do u use for ur own???
I used to have this one SLIDEVILLAIN 1.1.0 RC but it was not possilble to calibrate the G-Sensor.
Sorry for my bad english
The question is, what do you want or like, you want sense? or vanilla, then 2.1 or 2.2. I use Floyo 2.2, for the stability and speed. But its up to you, just try some, not a problem to flash more then once on your phone
i would like to have the 2.2. i dunno what the vanilla looks like. i am not afraid of something diffrent then sense ok 1 point vor floyo 2.2 sofar =)
but i am a little lazy to check all the custom roms
is this Floyo 1.01 based on android 2.2 ?
tra a few roms out for yourselve and then tell us which one is the best

No custom rom has this option afaik... Its cuz the devs dont believe us and tell us to rotate the phone in crazy directions to reset the sensor.... (like that ever worked)....
Anyway there is a manual way to do it. First you need to find your values takes about 3-15 mins. Then always when reflashing changing to those values (1min)
You wont do it so many times so there is no problem. (am lazy to find you the guide , use search)
You want a 2.2? How about a 2.2.1? Sinpkrs- cronos froyo 1.4.2

You are using SlideVillain? Get "Bubble" from Market to calibrate G Sensor

I'm looking at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911364 and cannot work out if I've downloaded the correct file from the 2nd post or what to do with the rar once I've unpacked it?
I've already had a play with z's free x10 b3 & b4 & wolfbreaks CM6.1.3 v05, and I'm up to speed on flashing baseband via flashtool, so I'm not totally new to his, but I downloaded from the third link in the 2nd post and extracted but cannot find a zip file to use with xrecovery.
Is this ROM installed differently? Am I doing something wrong?
Any help woud be greatly appreciated!
look for: Update.zip
When you extract the .rar file there shoiuld be a file called update.zip. This is the file you can use from within xRecovery.
But why should you use v10. v11 is out and some of us experience less WLOD's.
v11 works for me, also with update.zip.
Good luck!
Thanks for the info, I'll give it a go at some point this week.

ei,
Haven't done it myself yet but the instructions provided by geppie sound sound like they would work. Which bit you struggling with?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
I'm on the newest version 2.2.1 from Cyanogen right now.
Whats the different with this one?
I mean not the differents between 2.2 and 2.3 but: what is working already in 2.3?
There are camera issues. The camera app isn't working which means that you will not be able to take images.
You will experience random system reboots.
Basically for me 2.2 froyo rom us more stable than cm7

I will wait till the 2.3.3 version is more stable.
Having done a bit more reading I think I'll stick with CM6 based ROM's for now, let CM7 become a little bit more stable!
Hopefully it'll be before SE release the 2.3 update
Knowing our devs it definitely will be : )
Yeah, I'm fairly new to these boards but I've been pleasantly surprised by the speed of new releases and updates for the ROM's that I've been using.
I'm still in the procss of trying to decide which ROM is best for me, so I'm having to go through constant reinstalls of all my apps and so on which is a nuisance but worth it for the improved speed & functionality!
psx you should use "my backup root" for all your apps so you dont constantly reinstall them.

i think its froyo because of working cam/camcorder
sounds like you might have a winner here. i am working on porting a rom from the captivate myself...
however you have me a little confused.... why would you port motoblur anything?
most everyone that i talk to that has a moto phone... doesnt want it. it may be hard to sell the idea of motoblur to anyone especially if they know how much crap it is....
its like timescape and mediascape... mainly useless and irritating... ( this is just my opinion) and am just curious why you would like to port that to an x10?
sorry but some screens?
thank's
@OP
i had a milestone... which variant is this rom based on "OH!NO!" / "ShadowMOD" / "HoBoMOD" ????
also some screenshots would be nice...
by the way, all of us should stay together as a team make sure we exist..
@ mods
Please clean this tread.
Give the OP a least a change to promote his ROM
PS this tread is reported to the mods for cleaning!!!
Lets stop this and of you want arguing. There is a nice tread in the general place.
(I think we all know what tread )

Stop. We're done with this. Please go to the general section if you have problems, we have a huge thread there.
OP, I can't wait for your ROM and I wish you the best!
I've been through this same thing... even though you don't have to as the sources being talked about can't be altered and taken ownership of... if you did use his sources just put it in first page (now if you take one of the tweaks he has made from scratch that is a different story). I got blamed even when didn't use sources and nothing happened out of it as I gave credits to the sources that Cobrato and I used. Trip is a good developer and just had a bad experience several months ago so give him a break. Even though he has come after me, I understand why he is upset and why he questioned me. He thought I themed his rom and changed things, but I am sure he has figured out I don't need to do that with roms. ENOUGH ABOUT THAT
And to the new chef.. I am going to try this out and will give you some feedback..
why do you post this even when people are negative? because it is about you getting experience with rom's and some people, like me can appreciate learning with your first port of a rom and getting almost no help so I will help you out when I can...
PS people will be negative/positive it happens to me, trip, J, and many others... You just ignore it and do this rom for experience and for yourself.

TripNRaVeR said:
Exactly. They do whatever they like you know, if they want me to stop here so thats really fine be me. Let them working night after night and see what they are getting produced. Other than J, Z and my roms there are only roms that are themed and based on J, Z or my rom. So when i stop just 2 roms left, but whatever if they are happy with 2 roms GOOD. Lots of professional places where i can release roms. And otherwise i'll keep them to myself. Buy a new phone give people who donated me all links to my roms because they know what support and effort means. All others have phone with releasing the same rom over and over again.

Dude why dont u just chill out and anyways i have used j's files and not touched yours but if he has used them i have no idea i just ported normally following drannar's guide and replacing many files by trial and error and gor this thing to work and the camera only works on VGA.. so does J's camera
wolfbreak said:
xd you started it yourself and opened a already done discussion again. If he has the only working camera on 2.3 then he can share it or not becouse he made it himself and if he is sharing it or not is his choice. Trip didnt released sources and theres no credit in first post so if this are trips file then he have no permission to use it. Zdzihu and jerpelea released their sources so thats a other thing but trip didnt so you need to ask him.

Hi.
I have just installed MiniCM6 on my X10 Mini and I have everything working great. I have updated Google Maps to the latest version (5.11) from the market, and since I have a problem with Google Navigation : navigation does not re-route and map underneath route stays blurry. I have reverted back to version 5.3.1 and it works again, but I don't have the latest functionalities (map cache for offline navigation for instance). I have also searched and realized other devices also have this issue with android 2.2.1 :

Are you sure it's stable ? Does the camera work fine ? Are there any issues remaining concerning wifi, data, or gps ? Are there any recent reports on system crash or reboots ? Maybe I will install it this evening...

i just had a friend install cm9 rom for his xperia x8..and was wondering if it would work on dell streak...streak wins if compared with x8s hardware right???so if i could get any help...thanxs in advance
Read around the forum there are all kinds of driver issues.
unexpectedly a working cm7 came around. just so you know. read more about it in the corresponding threads here in the forums.
There is some hope of a CM9 port. A user from the korean forum where the CM7 port originated said the following on XDA:
sbdolphine said:
Three developers were tries to make a CM9. They has a their own version of CM9 test rom. I don't know now they uses hPa's data but they were trying to make it.

hPa was trying to port the CM9 to streak. He success to capture a CM9's screenshot on Streak but he says that 'It's laggy' because that version didn't supported the hardware accelation. He was watting a CM9's nex S version but... He's streak was doomed.

EDIT:
Here's some more information about CM9 (and a link to source files for a test rom!), from the creator of the CM7 port:
985hPaKicK said:
I have ever been complied CM9. Touch, Vibration, Wifi, Sensor, Bluetooth(with some problems), Audio, RIL(Only MMS doesn't work.), GPS are work. (without Hardware Accelation)
At that time, I used config files from CM7.
mediafire s3dvjw58kpw9by2 <- cm9dev file
Kernel is also based on CM7.
You know that HWA needs modifying gpu driver and many other sources.
And now I don't have streak any more. So CM9 work is stopped...
