Sounds like either a bad Streakmod recovery flash or an internal SD problem. Have you bothered trying to flash anything else. Did you have Streakmod working fine with the Olleh ROM? We need more info...

or you can use the new CWM 6 ... i use it and manage to flash rom ...
i tried also clockwork mod recovery but it says misc missing and when i go in clockword mod recovery and select update.zip it starts installing but ends soon
yah streakmod working fine with olleh rom . but i want to install DSC rom V2.1 but the problem is how can i proceed . i used both clockwordmod recovery and streakmod recovery but both of them giving errors

Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I believe you're going to have to replace the innerSD

/dev/block/mmcblk1p1
is the *external* SD card, check it first.
external sd is not in the slot maybe?

Everything's been smooth so far in regards to my vibrant modification but I noticed something today that might cause problems in the future
Im running stock rom with kingxkernel 3 and ryans oclf
I can get into clockwork recovery through rom manager without a problem (that's how I've been doing it) but if I go into recovery mode using the hardware keys it brings me to the stock recovery..any suggestions? ??? I know in the very beginning I had to choose reinstall packages and then it showed up but I was afraid to do that again before asking in case it screws up my phone
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
clockwork recovery doesn't replace stock recovery on the vibrant.
If you manually enter recover, you have to do the "reinstall packages" part in the stock recovery which will then load the clockwork recovery.
Oh okay thanks for the reply!

Dont you still need the update.zip in there?

yes, you still need the clockworkmod recovery file (aka update.zip) in order to load clockworkmod recovery.
I've flashed everything properly and I'm able to boot into streakmod immediately after flashing. However, upon rebooting the phone, going into recovery mode will not take me to streakmod. It will only take me to the stock Dell recovery page (where I can restore or press volume to power down).
Why does this only work immediately after flashboot and not afterwards?
Thanks in advance.
This is on 354 btw.

When you reboot the phone it's supposed to take you to the stock DELL recovery. You choose the option to install update.pkg and then when you see the DELL logo with a yellow exclamation point you press the power button again and it will take you to Streakmod.
Now, if you are using a stock ROM, then you have to use a file manager that gives you root access (such as Root Explorer) to your internal SD card and rename a file called "install-recovery.sh", located in \system\etc (can't remember exactly where it is) and rename it to install-recovery.sh.bak. Then flash Clockworkmod or Streakmod again and you should be good to go

Yeah, it works fine after rebooting through flashboot, but after that the streakmod page will not load up...it will simply take me back to the stock DELL recovery.
I'll try this fix though...thanks!
Stock roms overwrite the recovery after every boot. That's why is works once after flashing. You'll have to run a custom rom to maintain a coustom recovery. Sorry :-(

You do not have to run a custom rom to use a custom recovery. You do have to root your phone so that you can rename the file install-recovery.sh located in the folder /system/etc/ so that it does not run every time you boot your phone. I use stock 351 and the recovery-v0.3.2.7-DoctorWFix.zip version of StrekMod Recovery so I can make nandroid backups.The latest version of MultiRecovery Flasher will install this version.

Please read through this very thread... (not that there aren't hundreds more with the same info) and you will find a link to probably the one of the top guides out there for flashing the Streak...
Hey guys, I'm basically screwed right now. I deleted many major applications from the /system/apps drawer. I am running Mac 10.5 on my laptop currently and I want to know how do I flash a working ClockworkMod.
I know, there are plenty of threads about this, but none gave me a REAL answer.
I'm on a Mac, So I can't ODIN in. It needs to be done on 2.2 Froyo.
Everytime I instal a CWM, It boots into Android Recovery and When I hit "reinstall packages", It doesnt do anything.
Please, tell me how to flash a working cwm recovery so I can flash another ROM stable for my Vibrant.
Try not to send me links, because I've seen them all. but If you think that link is the one, please show me.
Thanks In advace guys.
Did you do a backup before anything?

ok so you can just download the cwm recovery and put it on your sd card and power your phone off then hold volume down and power it should flash the file itself if you cant get to the phone at all other then bootloader try mounting your sd card with another phone or with a micro sd adapter moving the file to the sd and doing what i told you before. that should help..
u might fail signature verification just doing update.zip
i think it should go like :
install odin in windows
flash 2.1
install clockwork
flash whatever u want
cant you use the rom manager from the market to install any fooxx.zip?

You post in wrong section, should be on general section.
Use streakmod recovery instead of cwm.
How you unmount your SD card? From MIUI settings or from recovery? Can you give more detail?
Or try to factory reset from dell recovery, hope that can help.

hi, i am using a dell streak 5 installed with go launcher. i deletted some system file in root (dell launcher and sort). its all fine till i factory reseted it, now it can boot up but cant seems to go in to menu app and shows blank page when unlocked in lock screen.
and to make things worst, my dell has faulty port which cant detect charger and usb cable.

the set is currently on starhub stock.
i tried download a couple of rom and rename to upgrade.pkg but i keep getting error while trying to run them.. something like status 7..
please help. sorry.
You sound like you haven't a clue. Are you downloading zip files for custom ROMs? Or downloading .pkg files for stock ROMs?

There are more tutorials than I care to mention but basically:
Flash stock recovery
Flash amss and dsp1 files for gingerbread
Download olleh 407 package and rename it update.pkg
Boot into recovery and flash the illegal ROM
After flashing immediately boot into recovery again and do factory reset
First boot will take anwhile
Don't setup phone, let it sit for about 10 minutes
Reboot again
Flash streakmod recovery
Download zip for chosen ROM (DSC preferably)
No need to name it anything special, just know where to find it when flashing
Before flashing wipe cache and dalvik

Well then what you have to do is load the file (zip or package from Dell) wirelessly using something like wireless adb or some type of SMB app (Samba, Remote Web Desktop, there are plenty to choose from.. the fact the port is faulty has ZERO to do with booting into recovery. It only means you can't mount the file system for transfers. Once you have the file in storage then you flash it like anyone else

hi sir, i tried alot stock rom it keep giving an error on status 7,
and dell streak boot up and got a black blank page cos i deleted some system files using root previously.. so i cant really use the phone to do anything at all..
so if u mean the .pkg from dell can solve the issue, where can i get the.pkg directly from dell?
PS: this is my current steps ->
1) i could not flash recovery mode because my charging port is not working/faulty
2) my dell streak 5cant longer put up to android menu, just remain blank after unlock screen cos i deletted some system files using root previously
3) i download almost all the stock .pkg on xdadevelopers and all is giving me error status 7
4) i tried custom rom, streakmui, simplestreak, djsteve, all cant be installed due to cant verify signature.
please help thanks
thanks meanwhile i tried to find my stockrom from starhub , and really cannot be found.

Well if you are getting a Status 7 error that means you are using custom recovery... not being able to verify signature means your zip file is corrupt or you are using Clockwork Mod instead of Streakmod I believe. If you are using Clockwork Mod well there's not much hope because you can't flash... but if its Streakmod then you need to download new zip files.
If the Streak will boot then adb push the new file to the sdcard. You don't even have to unlock the phone to do that

hi thanks for your help.
i did not flash recovery at all as i said, my usb port is faulty and i cant connect my phone to pc for any recovery or fastboot..
anyway i solved the problem by calling the streak using another phone (suprisingly, it rang)
i then can also go into sms to view them.. i texted the streak a link, open the link up, it prompted for wifi and i proceeded.
after going into the link, i then download go launcher from google and install.. and now its all solved.
i bet the fell i deletted is dell stock launcher from system.. so it could load the launcher and menu page.. so installing a custom launcher helps..
but the stock system is still down.. since i could use the phone already, i will try clockwork to flash a recovery thru my fone without usb connection and flash it again.
thanks anyway cdzo72

Basically never use clockwork mode to flash any kind of dell streak series because in my experience may cause a trouble in dell streak itself, better use streakmod v 3.2.8 you can find it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5 I always use this one and look always fine till right now or use stock recovery, if you chose stock recover Install appropriate driver extracted from fastboot zip and then Connect phone pc with usb cable. :
1.Turn phone off
2.Hold down Power + Camera simultaneously until white menu appears
3.Press the Fastboot button in top right corner\
4.Finished
from the PC write this fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img after this your dell streak should be enter the streakmood 0.3.2.8 mode than flash the file room you want to...sori for my bad english
