got a streak as a gift a month ago - tried to update from stock 1.6 to 2.2 using guide on streaksmart.com - didnt work. now streak is bricked. no lights, nothing. looked all over online for days now and the furthest ive got is to try to access the quallcomm chip from the laptop but i cant, and i cant run the driver on it either, as told in the bricked streak pdf by ryrules. called dell and they cant help w/o acct name that purchased device - which i cant get (but thats a whole other story). cant even get a charge from what i can tell, qdl tool cant detect usb streak. im able to admit im out of my depth on this one - can anyone out there help?
If it helps, the dell streak service tag should be on the back of the phone when you remove the battery cover.
I phoned Dell today and they are picking up my streak for repair, no charge. And im not the first owner of the device either. Got mine from ebay. All they did was get me to boot into recovery, and try a factory reset. when it didnt complete, they just said they will fix it, for free thankfully.
I tried that - they won't transfer the device to my name w/o verification of original purchaser account name - and won't be able to issue a new free replacement w/o it. Not only do I not have that info, I might not ever be able to get it. thank you for the idea though.

i went here and dl'ed the pdf and files, but i cant get past maunally installing the fastboot driver on pc, it wont let me update the android driver - because its not recognizing the device as connected. i can get my laptop to recognize the quallcom chip, but thats as far as ive gotten. phone is off, seemingly totally dead, no lights or anything. when i get to the chip, it wont let me install or update driver - every time i try it fails. any ideas? I tried your email in the pdf.

Texas, but I think I could maybe fix it if someone had the right step by step instruction I could follow. Is there another program besides the qdl that can help?
What version of windows are you using. I had a very hard time with windows 7 but took me like 20 minutes from start to finish with a windows XP.

now what?
That happened on my 1st attempt using QDL. Just unplug Streak, remove battery for @ least 1 minute, place battery & cover back on, hold the button closest to the headphone port while @ same time plugging cable back into Streak, then run again. 2nd time did everything for me. My computer did flash something about drivers installed successfully after the 1st fail, so maybe it installed what was missing. If this doesn't work, use a different USB port.

+1 for that advice. In addition, I wouldn't use a USB hub either.

yes, i did but when i try to update the android adb interface under device manager on my laptop by directing the driver update screen manually to C:\dell\drivers\R288920\Win7 i get an error msg that says
windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device
windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it
the device cannot start (code 10)
seems to be a pattern im stuck in, i cant make it past here yet.
Nm - fixed it w help from irc #dellstreak - had to end up using 2 different qdl tools, but in the end - after a week long struggle w a bricked streak it finally came back on, with 2.2
Please help!!!!

Dont know if you still have this problem, but I transferred registration/ownership to myself on the dell site. It just asks for your details and service tag. Which coincidentally is shown under About Phone, status at the bottom.

I ended up getting it all fixed up with a lot of help on irc. Meralias got me through the last parts, correct drivers and qdl. Then I had beta froyo, which I updated to official. Yesterday I finally got brave enough to try flashing one of dj steve s. glad I did.

I see you asked this on the Dell forum too... with no responses, just like here.
Something is obviously wrong with the Dell Streak 5 as the other 6 phones is a (see my sig) I had no issue using them as a modem for my laptops via PdaNet. I need to know if I can use it as a modem for the Streak, are there any limitations with 1.6... and where to get the dang driver since the one from PdaNet won't work.
It seems to be impossible on the at&t model.
I have so far tried pdanet (usb driver error), barnacle legacy (can upload but not download), android-wifi-tether (apparently incompatible with 1.6), android wired tether (1.6), and one more that I dont recall the name of, which simply crashed.
What version of windows are you using?
I got mine working on ubuntu 10.10 without a hitch.

What is ubuntu 10.10?
A linux distrobution, it's an entire operating system, but you can get an installer that runs off a USB stick, probably too much of a circus if you're going to do it regularily.
william58 you aren't still running 1.6 are you?
Hoping to get some update from @AmyatDell as she is looking into it for me since no one at dell responded on their forums.

Finally got the driver loaded and PdaNet working.
A bit tricky, but if you follow the instructions I posted, it will work.
That post is here:
Getting PdaNet to work with Streak 5
PDANET
I would suggest you remove any drivers you have installed from Windows 7.
I was having the same problem and then heard about PDANET.
I couldn't even use fastboot because everytime I connected my Streak, Windows would try to install different drivers.
I read in another forum, pocketables I think, that installing PDANET would solve this.
So I uninstalled all traces of drivers and the Dell Sync also, installed PDANET and voila, no more problems.
So if PDANET isn't working for ya, you have a driver issue or there's something wrong with your Streak

If you would have read my previous post, you would have saw I got it working.
As for uninstalling the drivers and dell sync and using PdaNet drivers... that didn't work for me. Drivers would NOT install. So see my solution in this link:
Getting PdaNet to work on your Streak
Maybe the way you did it worked, but the variables may have been different as I'm running Win7 Ultimate 64 bit which could effect the kind of drivers etc.
Before I begin, I should say that I am a n00b and I am new to android. That being said, I did a search through XDA and google and could not find a solution to my problem.
I am currently trying to flash cyanogenmod7 to my samsung fascinate using the cyanogenmod wiki guide.
I am trying to install ClockworkMod Recovery. I put my phone into download mode and plug it in to my computer (running windows 7 parallels) and it seems to not show up in the device listing in zadig. I've tried multiple times. The computer recognizes that it is connected to the phone initially, but then disappears.
Any suggestions? Thanks guys
see if you can get it to work using odin with section:3 of this guide. Just download the odin and samsung driver from steps 1&2 of section:1 then proceed to section 3. If that don't work then we have to determine what is causing the connection issue?

Hi to all!
Since yesterday, my PC which is running W8 gave an error whenever i tried to connect my xperia mini to my PC. 'USB device not recognized'. I was running CM 10.1 and a new update was available so i tried to flash it. Flashed it successfully and then the network was gone so, what i did was flash back to CM 9.1. Here the problem occurred. My PC is not recognizing my phone. I tried flashing the kernel with flash tool and followed this :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095087 Still nothing. Connected it to another laptop running windows 8. Even that didn't work so i connected my phone to my dad's laptop running windows 7. I was somehow able to flash kernel at first but then the same error there too! Tried 3 different PC's and i'm not able to solve this issue! Please help!
as you have a custom kernel on device,try accessing CWM and installing the stock ROM,then install CM again..
btw did you check the CM10.1 page for any bugs..?

Tried 2 different ROM's on the same kernel. Nothing happens. I get the same error each time! Also now my ear-piece won't work too (In both the ROM's i flashed) :'(
I also noticed that using Win XP, i can connect MSC to my PC and copy/paste items. But as soon i go into fastboot mode, it gives me the error!
Edit: I have used CM 10.1 before with no bugs. This started happening only yesterday!
I know this sounds dumb, but do you have ADB on (android debugging) because my windows 8 computer doesn't recognise my phone without it on. Hope I helped.

I have everything installed! Right now i'm on XP. Even it doesn't recognize my phone in fastboot mode!
check device manager..
when you connect your xperia..what does it show ?
try updating the driver by manual selection...
if that doesnt work..
open flashtool..
check the logs when you connect your xperia..
-DELETE-
I somehow managed to connect it to flashhtool in flash mode! Now i'm flashing .42 ftf file to use my device somehow with 0 bugs/glitches. It is taking forever to do so! See the attachment!
Any other way to flash ftf file?
Thank you
Okay, so i did flash the ftf and now running GB .42 Still can't connect to computer
What should i do?
Is your computer detecting any other xperia device,or an iphone...?

It is detecting my pendrive, my hard-drive and my nexus!
Edit: Tested on 3 laptops each running:- Win8 and other two Win7. Also, tested on 1 PC (dual-booted with XP and Win8) Same result in all of them.
Is SEUS detecting the phone?
Try changing connection modes on the phone...
if not..flash stock kernel
get me a screenshot of flashtool logs for check drivers option..
its here help->check drivers..
Solved (I guess)
Well i guess i solved the problem! I plugged the USB to the back ports. It worked. I guess this is a temporary solution. Now i think my SdCard got corrupt or something. I'll format it
Thanks for all your help guys! :highfive:

Hi there,
I have problems with Flashtool version 0.9.13.0 (Latest) , so i tried to plug my phone with Fastboot mode / Flashboot mode and Windows says : "USB Device not recognized"
NOTE: I am using Windows 8.1
I tried going into advanced boot mode and i disabled that driver thing , installed drivers,still nope.
I tried front USB ports and rear USB ports (2.0 USB PORTS)
Still Windows don't recognize phone.
I Bricked phone and now i am frustrated that i cannot access flashtool and flash kernel. (I KNOW HOW TO UNBRICK IT)
Can anyone help , before flashtool worked like charm,and now i don't know why it won't work.
I am downloading Windows 7 and i will try it with Virtualbox , sure it will work but this is not solution.
NOTE: In 0.9.11.0v Flashtool on Win8 it worked.
NOTE: I searched on google but everything leads to that driver thing.
