[Q]Dell Streak is DEAD [Already Working but still have problem] - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello community!
Ive tryed to flash my phone from firmware 366 to 369 so i've used this script to flash thouse files:
fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash dsp1 dsp1.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash fsb fsbl.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash osbl osbl.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash appsboot appsboot.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash dbl dbl.mbn
fastboot -i 0x413c flash DT DT.img
fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img
fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
after rebooting my phone doesn''t tourn on anymore! I've tryed to "reanimate" device with StreakFlash buy phone doesnt want to install the driver while pressing Vol-UP Button.
Help me please!

Of course it won't. If I'm not mistaken the 366 and 369 ROMs are Softbank ROMs? The last couple ROM updates from them I believe were not in the form of patches but full-blown ROM updates like the rest of the world, and thus you shouldn't have needed to manually flash through Fastboot all those files.
The QDL Tool may revive the Streak, but be prepared to have the device JTAGged, and thus lose phone capability as a result.
EDIT: Did your script execute a fastboot -w or fastboot -erase command at the end?

I'm sorry for you, cause your device is dead. Who told you to run these commands?
Anyway. There are three solutions I can think off:
(1) Have your device JTAGed. If you are very lucky and do not overwrite SIM_SECURE and RESERVED partitions your Streak will work again. But I don't think you will have such luck. Besides you need a technican that opens your device without breaking it and have the right tools to JTAG it. They are expensive. Even if you killed SIM_SECURE-partition you may recover one with revskills.de or simsecure.dll with QC BQS Firmware Analyzer.
(2) Buy a broken screen device on ebay and change the pcb with your device. You also need luck, to get an honest seller and a technican.
(3) Cut your losses and sell your device for parts (screen and camera are most asked for)
Good luck,

BUT, when device is trying to load the system its getting into recovery and giving the following error
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1 ( or /dev/block/mmcblk0)

EDIT: System has been installed but the device stuck at Dell logo
Also before getting into fastboot menu it shows in a red line (Default NV checked #3)
EDIT 2: Dont care for errors!!! NOW IT WORKS!!!!
Here what have i done
1: Formated internal MicroSD with linux Gparted tool [WARNING ITS DANGEROUS!!! - Better not to do]
2: Used Streakflash (QDL) Tool to start the device
3: Went to fastboot and flashed 360's amss.mbn and ds1.mbn
4: Flashed modificated recovery
5: After reboot Ive opened Recovery menu, wiped cache partition, dalvik cash, Battery stats and everything which could be wiped ;D
6: Installed DSC 2.0 ROM
7: After rebooting I have done factroy reset from Dell menu and then, after 5 minutes my phone started up
EDIT3: SIM Doesnt work even if it can pass test in dev menu
I read in net that because of JTAG Phone has got locked! Well even the Unlock code wont help, I have kinda lost cell functuions :L sad

Guys, on forums i read that after JTAGing Service Tag of device should be 0000000
but in my device its not zeros, so is there a way to unlock it again?

if you read carefully on this forum... jtagging your phone would make the phone capabilities goes down the drain... the only way to add the phone function back is by using the external bluetooth hardware...
i have posted in the general forum ... but seems nobody has ever use it so no feedback at all...

The question still follows

The service tag has nothing to do with the loss of phone capability. In the case of the loss of phone capability, JTAGging the Streak basically wipes out the low-level firmware that interfaces with the SIM card. There's no way to restore the firmware and no way of using the phone parts of a Streak that has been JTAGged, short of replacing the Streak's motherboard.

1) Take a deep breath - everything is okay
2) You're supposed to get that error
3) Pull the battery after your phone freezes up
4) Get into fastboot mode (power + Vol down)
5) Run the Moto-fastboot command to confirm being unlocked
You're set!
thanke u for helping ,
i just run the cmd command moto-fastboot and it has show me a list of options and commands... thats what it should happens ?

Hmm...when you flash the unlocker, it will fail. This has exactly happened to me. I then proceeded to pull the battery. When I power on the phone again, it should say "Unlocked" at the top above the motorola screen. When you put into fastboot mode, press volume up and start the moto-fastboot commands:
- Type moto-fastboot oem unlock
- Look for the UNIQUE ID number and copy it, use copy or your fat fingers might mistype it.
- Type moto-fastboot oem unlock YOUR_UNIQUE_ID_THAT_YOU_JUST_COPIED
(from the original thread)
It should say "Your phone is already unlocked" or something like that....
- type moto-fastboot reboot or fastboot reboot depending
You should be all set...I'm not sure why it wouldn't say "Unlocked" when powering on the phone again...Try again...just make sure to fully charge your phone, plug it into the back of the computer, and wait for the unlocker to fail. It shouldn't take that long...keep trying!
thanke u very much ! you realy helped me =]

No need to do all that.
Since you want to get CM7, Unlock the phone.
Ignore the instructions to flash system.img, that will bring you back to stock.
Enter fastboot, flash a recovery. (Above post last instruction)
Enter recovery mode, than flash CM7 from there.
(I assume you are familiar with what I am talking about, and don't require step by step instructions)

Again, type it correctly.
In other words, spot the difference
fastboot --set-active=a (what I wrote)
fastboot --set active=a (what you wrote)
Do you see android/fastboot device in your device manager on the PC when you connect it to the PC in fastboot mode?
Edit: also replace fastboot.exe and adb.exe in c:\ADB\ folder as this one is being used. Or remove this folder from Windows PATHS.

Are you sure that phone is in fastboot and not in recovery? What do you see on the phone screen?
You are doing too many things at once, focus on one thing and once you get it solved, move to another one. Also please provide answers to all questions, they are essential for troubleshooting.
1. Reinstall drivers and ADB - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
2. Reboot phone in fastboot, connect it to the PC and type in "fastboot devices" - do you see any device connected?

Oh God thanks it worked, Can you tell me why there is A and B ? i mean 2 slots? also how do i get the device into factory fresh ?
Like the 1st time when i bought this. thank you soo much + Liked
If i use Mi Flash tool again, So am gonna be in Danger again too?
You can use MiFlash, but before flashing you need to make sure that your active partition is A (with commands mentioned before).
To restore to 100% stock:
1. set partition A as active
2. run MiFlash WITHOUT locking bootloader (or run script flash_all.bat)
3. start the phone, if everything works, move to the next step (ONLY IF PHONE WORKS)
4. run MiFlash with bootloader lock (or run script flash_all_lock.bat) or run "fastboot flashing lock"
5. after reboot, your phone should start as if it came from a factory

Thanks Everything is now great. However what is slot count? and what happens when it hits 0? also i locked the device via fastboot flashing lock.
It should be number of slots. 2 = boot_a + boot_b
It it hits 0, I guess you have serious problem as bootloader doesn't see any boot partition.

P20 Lite stuck in bootloop "AP_S_ABNORMAL 64"

Hello guys. My brother's Huawei p20 Lite is stuck in a bootloop. I'm unable to access the recovery and Erecovery (tried 10 times but it just won't work.) The only thing that works is Fastboot mode and it shows this error. Can't use Hisuite because apparently this phone isn't supported to be recovered using that program. How can I fix this phone? Is it permanently bricked?

Hello, try this way out...
1. install on your PC "Minimal ADB and fastboot" tool, in fastboot mode run command
fastboot erase userdata
and try restart the device.
Or,
2. download and use a Service ROM with an sd/card or an USB-OTG flashdrive in dload mode. Download correct Service ROM from androidhost.ru website, unpack .zip archive , find dload file in "Software" folder, and simply transfer it to the SD card, without unpacking it! (instruction can be found in ReleaseDoc folder).
Turn off your phone and flash FW using three button combo .
The first step is to determine which variant of your device you are on.
In fastboot mode run commands:
fastboot oem get-build-number
fastboot oem get-product-model
fastboot getvar vendorcountry
fastboot oem oeminforead-CUSTOM_VERSION
fastboot oem oeminforead-SYSTEM_VERSION
(The bracketed (Cxxx) is your device’s regional variant.
This number is very important in determining the correct firmware to download!).
Service ROM can be found here:
https://androidhost.ru/search.html . Type Ane- or Anne- .
For example, for build number ANE-LX1 9.1.0.278 C432) :
https://androidhost.ru/Xar
Maybe it will help you...

Device won't enter dload mode either. I hold the 3 buttons but it just bootloops.
Sorry, I'm out of ideas (with the locked bootloader).

I'm as well, the only thing that might work is removing and placing the battery ribbon cable again but I don't have the glue to close the case. Should I still try it?

You should try it, why not.
IMO it might be the HW problem , dead memory or damaged motherboard, (fastboot commands are not working).

The fastboot commands are working but it says I don't have permission to do it or something along those lines it refuses to execute it

Same phone and same thing happened to me. What's different is that twrp recovery works.
It all started when I unlocked the bootloader with PotatoNV. I unlocked it with the fastboot oem unlock MYUNLOCKCODE command.
Then i flashed twrp: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk d:\twrp.img
Then whatever happened, I started seeing the error "AP_S_ABNORMAL 64" in fastboot mode, but running commands was fine.
I deleted everything by entering the codes below with fastboot mode.
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase userdata
Then I reinstalled twrp recovery by entering the codes below and flashed a custom rom.
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk d:\twrp.img
fastboot flash system d:\MyCustomRom.img
Suddenly what do I see.
When I rebooted with the fastboot reboot command, twrp was constantly opening. The system would not boot at all. I was desperately doing everything I could think of. Only one thing worked. I opened emui e-recovery by pressing the volume up, volume down and power keys at the same time. It was failing there and there was only one option; I clicked restart. The system booted this time, not twrp, and after a long wait, the main installation screen came.

it is not e-recovery, this buttons combination triggers the installation of FW by the dload method.

Question how to fix dm-verity corruption

Any news on this?
I also have it, have to press a button in order for it to boot, each time.
Did you try fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img when flashing vbmeta.img?
What fixed it for me was using the vbmeta file that is provided in this recovery, and apply the command.
Trying the fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img command with the original vbmeta, extracted from my ROM somehow did not do the trick.
That's strange! In the future I'd try re-downloading and extracting the image and trying again; I've found that this fixes strange bugs surprisingly often
