You must upgrade to 407 rom then install custom rom, such as: DSC 2.2 or CM7.

Hi All!
Maybe this is not the fastest way to get a streak running, but I thought I might share a fairly fast way.
This procedure will take you to a completely clean pdroid DSC 2.2 Streak.
Put 407 update.pkg on the external SD
Startup in Fastboot mode and flash 407 recovery image on your device, I used multiflasher to do this
Start up in recovery mode and apply update.pkg
Let the system continue all the way until you see the welcome screen
Shut the system down by long press on power and acknowledge
Put DSCv2.0-rel.zip, PDroid-v1.31-DSCv2.0.zip and updDSCv2.2-PDroid.zip (optional DSC_StageUI.zip) on the external SD
While the system is down cut out the plastic covering the internal SD and put in a class 10 (I used a sandisk 4GB class 10)
Boot normally and let the system format the internal SD
Again, when at the welcome screen shut the system down
Startup in Fastboot mode and flash your favorite recovery for flashing .zip-files (I use StreakMod-Recovery)
Start up in recovery mode and flash all zip files in the same order as mentioned above, then wipe cache partition, clean dalwik cache and fix permissions (Optionally make a nandroid backup of the very clean system)
Done, Let the system boot up and set up your device as per your own liking
I'll monitor this thread to answer any specific questions.
PS, _n0p_, I can't thank you enough for this development and yours and everyone elses tireless support! I was so worried when your Streak was dead for a while. Lets hope there is some hope for CM9 and/or CM10

i wanna some one help me to install this rom and help me to enter to streak mod recovery

i can't understand this
flash with: fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img

If you don't understand fastboot, you have a lot of reading to do before you attempt to root your Streak. Unless of course you want a shiny paperweight. Check the Development forum, the sticky posts at the top of each page, and the XDA Developers Wiki for information on how to root.

i am actually now rooted my device by gingerbreak
now i wanna to enter to StreakMod-Recovery but i can't just i wanna some one help me to enter to StreakMod-Recovery)
thanks

Hold down both volume buttons while turning the Streak on. Select option 2 on the screen that appears.
One thing: upgrade to ClockworkMod. Some files cannot be installed by StreakMod.

I wanna to thank you bro for your help
can you tell how to install clockworkmod in the streak 5 because I have no idea to do that because iam new in the android
If you have a video explain how to install colockworkmod please give me
Thanks for your help

If you're running Windows, look for a thread on MultiRecovery Flasher and read it. The version of the program you want is Multiflasher, which is near the end of the thread.

I've used Universal Androot on the Froyo build on the Streak - for some odd reason you have to do it twice (some report three) times in a row for it to work.

So your device is now not booting and when you turn it on you just get the DELL logo right?
If yes then what I would do is either flash the ROM again via koush's recovery [I'm assuming you have a custom recovery installed because you have managed to flash a ROM and it's now not working] in the recovery options there is a partitions menu, in there wipe boot, system and cahce reflash the rom form a zip
If that dosent work, put the latest update.pkg file on your device, flash the stock recovery via fastboot then flash the update.pkg via stock recovery
Try that

[Q] Streakdroid 1.9.0 from stock 2.2 froyo?

I know there are guides out there to go to earlier versions of Streakdroid,but I can't tell if I can go straight there from my stock build.
Android Version 2.2.1
BUILD NUMBER 14896
ROGERS NETWORK
A modified idiots guide would be great,or something like it,to those of us just coming online...or some kind soul who remembers what it is like could hold my hand to get me pointed in the right direction?>There is a boatload of info that seems like it is constantly changing.
Thanks
Yes you can go stalraight to 1.9.0, just Put the 1.9.0 update.zip and install.txt in the root of your sd card, flash streakmod recovery, reboot into recovery, install 1.9.0, and you are done, just follow the guide, you won't get lost.

Yep. I did it on mine.
In addition to what eowyn0821 mentioned, I fastboot-ed the baseband and 720p fix as well. Just in case. Remember to wipe using the default factory reset not the recovery.
i cannot flash streak recovery,it just says waiting on device but never does anything
and i cant boot phone up.....stays at boot logo
i took out sd card and installed different roms,1.6 to 1.9.0 but stock recovery cant see .zip only update.pkg so i renamed....but after it sees the update and tries to install.....i get the,
E:signature verification failed error

The reason you are having error is because you renamed the zips to pkg which they are not, they are zip that is why when it was opened you get the error. Go to the wiki page section of xda for dell streak you can find all the roms, recovery, basebands almost anything you need about streak.

So step 1 for me should be to root my phone correct?
( hello I guess I might need to do a backup first?)
and then I'm clear to use streakmod recovery to reload the zip file.
do I also need to upgrade my baseband first, or is this an optional step?

Yes it is an optional step, it depends on you on what baseband you want to use, but if you are planning to go 1.9.0 i suggest you stick with 345 as i know it was based on 341 and 345 builds.

Just my two cents' worth. Tried to upgrade from streakdroid 1.8 to 1.9 without factory reset. Worked fine. Tried again with a factory reset. Went into an endless loop - boot screen to unlock screen to boot screen..... and so on.
Flashed stock recovery, did a factory reset from stock recovery, flashed streakmod recovery, installed 1.5, then 1.8, then without a factory reset installed 1.9 - all worked fine.
Okay,so far I have installed superoneclick and it looks like all is well and I have installed clockwork recovery and all seems as it should be.
How do I get the install.txt and the update.zip package onto the root of the sd card?Is this the same as just dumping into the sd card from windows? Or do I have to do this in the phone?
Do i need to rename the zip to update.pkg?

If you are coming from any 2.2 you do not need to install superuser as all streakdroid such as 1.9.0 are all rooted, yes you just have to copy the 1.9.0 update.zip and install.txt from your comouter and paste them on your sdcard. You do not have to rename it to pkg as clockwork and streakmod only install update.zip and stock/dell recovery install update.pkg. All streakdroid roms are update.zip and should remain as such.

The recovery usually has some options to mount the sdcard. I have used it on streakmod recovery. You might wanna use that to get the right files on the sdcard to install the new rom.
This gallery will show you the menu options that allow you to mount the SD Card from streakmod recovery.
Thanks for your input,after a few false starts I am up and running-so what's the standard donation for a new improved ROM these days?
Right off the bat,i am very impressed by the display res.Even at what I assume is the stock 160dpi the screen looks amazing.Coming from the samsung galaxy,this was one of the larger dissapointments with my dell..up until now.
In the end it waz streakmod recovery v0.3.2.6 beta that worked the charm for me.Multi recovery and clockwork was no good but I was likely the bug .

Problem with Google
Hello all,
After update to 1.9.0 i have one very annoying problem - i simply cannot sync with Google.
Account is enabled, but inside settings->accounts&sync->my account list is empty.
Simply no options to sync.
After factory data reset (via privacy settings), all options appear (calendar, contacts, etc) but still cannot sync.
"Sync is not possible now, try again later".
Update options were "bios, stageui, noswype".
What can be wrong?
Ok, problem disappear just today.
I did nothing.
Next issue - keyboard settings are not available.
Language - English, United States.
When i try to push Android keyboard button in language & kb menu, i have error "process com.android.inputmethod.latin) has stopped unexpectedly.

mucho problemos w titanium backup
So my installation of 1.9 Streakdroid over stock 2.2 ran quite well except for some minor issues.One that was bugging me was the time stamp coming in wrong on texts which is a big pain.(I am now working around it by making time settings manual and setting myself to +-0 gmt)
So I thought I had better do the factory reset and clear the Davik cache and see what happens.I backed up using Titanium and proceeded as planned.
Factory reset and everything is okay but every time I go to restore my apps and system data the phone completely craps out.It seemed okay for a while but progressively got worse until I was forced to repeat the procedure many times.At this point every time I go to restore everything with TB the phone totally craps out FC'ing everything imaginable.
System reset restores to a working state but as soon as I restore ADW or TB it seems to crap everything out.
Anybody know how I can retrieve settings from a single app (my tracks) out of a titanium backup?Is there an extraction tool that would bypass everything else?

[Q] another bricked streak. need help w/ build 15697

hello all. i was running the stock at&t 2.2 build 15697 version 331 and hated how slow the phone was running. i was trying to downgrade back to the at&t 1.6 so that i can flash over to streakdroid 1.9.0. there were no instructions on the net on how to downgrade from 2.2 build 15697 to 1.6 and so i tried following the direction from the Guide to Upgrading and Downgrading the Streak thread. doing that bricked my phone and now im stuck on the dell logo boot up screen. tried flashing the recovery for build 15697 using fastboot and still no go. can someone please help me out. been searching for about 4 hours now and no help anywhere on the net. thanks in advanced everyone.
You don't need to downgrade to 1.6 in order to get 1.9.0. Where did you read that was required?
Just flash streakmod recovery, put the streakdroid zip on the sd card, same with install.txt, and follow the rest of posted directions.

i was following the directions on the upgrade/downgrade guide thread. i was under the impression that i needed to flash to O2 os.
thanks for the info...ill let you know if it works.
If you are not sure how to do the flashing of the recovery there is a tool that can be used on your computer. Look for it in the streak dev sub forum.
It is call multirecovery tool. It has all the recoveries you would need. You would have to put the rom you want on the sd card and install it with the recovery.

ok whew! using streakmod recovery saved the day. thanks a lot for the info! you're a life saver!

Flashed rom, phone broke

I tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033653) on my friends Optimus T and something went wrong. I followed the instructions to the letter and after the format of the /system i couldn't actually flash the ROM because everything got deleted so i tried to restore the NANDROID that i had made and i couldn't because there was nothing there and now it just hangs at the boot up screen! PLEASE help me get this fixed
Well... may seem a bit obvious have you tried flashing a different rom from recovery yet? If you get really desperate I can supply you with the kdz file for titanium optimus 509.
Or u cud start a fresh wipe your sd card and store on of your fav roms on it and then flash it with recovery..Start afresh..If u can boot into recovery then no worries

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354 Try this rom. it installed just fine on my Optimus T titanium. I used clockwork recovery to do so. assuming you can get to recovery which from turned off hold volume down+home then power. If you can;t get to recovery you will probably have to use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865479 however you would have to do it from emergency mode instead
Only two options:
1. If you can access the Recovery menu, then clear everything and flash a ROM again.
2. If you cannot, just flashed an official fimware back with kdz (use the links provided in the posts above). Then start all over again.
Simple

I think the issue your having is that adding the ext partion formats the sd card. Thus, the zip you are trying to flash is no longer there and you nandroid was deleted also. Boot back into recovery and select the usb mount option, transfer the zip you want to flash and then flash it. Simples
Ciaox simply missed the line out where is should say copy *************.zip to sd card before the bit about flashing it. I think this time following the instructions to closely caused this lol Man up
thanks mates, got it working with a a CM7 port (actually I had to go through 3 because two didn't have the Market for some reason
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
Glad you got this resolved. But for future ease of flashing download a flashable zip containing the market. such as the one listed in the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1072252

[Q] Having issues and I have search but I might be blind .

I had streakdroid 1.9.1 installed on my rogers streak, I had quite a few issues with it and wanted to revert back to stock rom.
once I unrooted and factory reset I flashed the stock rogers rom via fast boot with the right recovery image.
one done I get the dell logo on screen and it stays there FOREVER.. like its been on the logo screen for over an hour.
What am I doing wrong and how long should it take to install and what not.
I might not have all the right info in here Im a newbie sorry in advance
Envious1
so I loaded the streak in fastboot mode
then on pc went to cmd and made sure I had the right recovery img in the folder and the right pkg file on the sdcard
put in the command and installed the recovery img
then the streak reloaded and I went to update.pkg and it did that
android system recovery utility - GAUSB1A13500
Press the shutter button to start emergency software recovery
ect...
now its stuck on dell logo.. how long should it take after an hour I rebooted and it went directly to white page that said emergency sofware recovery start.
what should I do.
you could flash 1.9.1 again, that will save your phone.
You could keep trying to flash a stock rom and eventually it will work.

how do I do that. via fast boot because I cant even boot into the dell only fastboot

Basically do what you did when you installed streakdroid 1.9.1 into your streak.
Then retry the stock recovery and rom again is, what i think eSZee is trying to say, correct me if i am wrong.
so I got 1.9.1 installed back on but now when I boot up and select dell stages I get a whole bunch of errors and closes it.
do I need to update the baseband is that my issue? if so how do I do that.
SD 1.9.1 breaks the Stage UI. DJSteve doesn't like stage and has no interest in it. Posts in the 1.9.1 thread have said that if you remove Stage from the Streak with 1.9.1 and then use the aps to re-install it it will work. YMMV and I don't use Stage or 1.9.1 so this is untested by me.
