I'm on stock Froyo 2.2 and rooted but phone always hang or reboot every 3-4 days doing nothing. If I reboot the phone manually on Mon, it will be stable until Sunday.

I'm trying to root dell streak froyo 2.2 baseband 322 but failed using superoneclick 1.6.5.0. Anyone know how to do it. Please shared it with me and others here.

Thank

Most probably your PC failed to detect the Streak ?? Check whether the Dell USB drivers re installed

If you upgrade to Stepehn's rom, it will be auto root , saves you the trouble

Yes PC failed to detect the streak. I have already reinstall the Dell USB drivers but still can not detect. I'm using Win7. In fact my PC never able detect my streak. I giveup and keep using Steven's rom. Actually I want to test stock rom 318 and 322, how good they are by using it for daily use.

Try this - extract from my blog : Several users at Spore forum follow this and updated me it works

The following need to be downloaded and installed on the Windows PC :
1. Android SDK : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
The software will be auto installed. Locate the folder where it is installed and execute the SDK manager.exe
2. Download and installed the Dell USB Android drivers : ftp://ftp.dell.com/Handheld/R288920.exe

On the Dell, Press Camera and Power until you see a white screen
Press the touch screen on the top right (Fastboot), the screen will than show ‘Wait for USB FastBoot detect….’.
Wait for about 10 secs
Connect your phone to computer using the USB cable. The screen should display ‘FASTBOOT_MODE’. If you do not see this message , you will now have to manually force install the USB drivers :

—-> Go to device manager (Control Panel>System>Device Manager).
View “Other devices” there should be a “Android 1.0″ device with a yellow warning symbol
Right click -> Update Driver Software -> Browse for the driver -> Let me pick -> Show all -> Google, Inc -> Android Bootloader Interface.
Ok, Next, Next, Yes I’m sure, etc. Until the drivers have loaded.
Now when you check (Control Panel>System>Device Manager) you should see an “Android Phone” section with the “Android Bootloader Interface”
Once this is done, you will see “Fastboot_Mode” displayed

thank you, will try that latter

Stephen has updated to 1.8.1. Just upgraded this morning on top of 1.8.0 - so far very good, very stable no issues/bugs noted

Recap my experience:

Update 1.8.0 on top of 1.5.1 : still face issues of suden switch off - twice in 3 days; need to pull battery to power back. On one day over a 2 hour period I noted sudden reboot but reboot was successful.
I started facing such issues since 1.7.0

Next, Did a factory reset twice , at clear data/factory reset and factory reset - reinstall all apps manually : Did not face anymore sudden switch off and reboots ( if any I didn't notice )

My conclusion : still stick to doing a full cleanup of cache, dalvik and factory reset and reinstall apps manually. Hope my install of 1.8.1 on top of 1.8.0 with existing data stays good

At last, running 1.5.1 + BB 322

Attached thumbnail(s)

Must say it is a very good price. However I doubt Senq can provide tech support - it will still goes back to Dell Msia

still need rm2099 if below rm2k that will be more worth.. now confusing either wait for dual core or this one with bigger screen but tis is the only fon with 5inch screen..

benny, will this fon support honeycomb?

Stephen is working on Honeycomb port. His last tweets seems to show good progress. Anyway he has openly declared he will get this working on the Dell Streak and will skip Gingerbread. However his last few roms started from 1.6.0 he has builtin some GB features and in v1.7 he has added and deleted some.

Dual core or 5" screen - just decide based on your needs. Your next best alternative is the duo core Galaxy S II ( 4.3" )

so are u going to let go ur streak after got ur S II? after i used tab, now i look back at those 3.7inch screen..or smaller..really not used to it..even type sms also feel something wrong.. sigh

dell streak battery can last for 1 day and compare with tab issit longer or shorter battery life??

U can always get replacement batt for streak ..... There is a 1800Mhz which fits like the ori and the much bulkier 4500 or 4800Mhz which i remember exactly

yeah i read from mugen website b4..1800Mhz compare to ori very much different?

Actually after I got my TAB, I wanted to sell off my Streak . I bought the Streak solely for one reason , that is the 5" screen. I was ready to forego performance though than the reviews were not great. I seldom use phone functions - biz communications heavily on SMS, email . So the TAB was a great gadget for me. As you have said , once you use a bigger screen device, very hard to get back to a smaller screen. For my phone needs, I divert all calls to my mini 15 year old monochrome ancient Nokia. Pay RM 10 for a newer battery to get it working again. BTW the DEll Streak is still a great smartphone - I don't regret buying it. Holding off selling it as waiting to test Honeycomb on it

BTW I have bought two additional batteries : A mugen 1800 and a generic replica. So battery is never an issue. Battery life on the TAB beats the Dell at least 2 to 3 X more

I order the SGS II , again purely just for testing - seriously not to be used as a regular working smartphone . Doubt it will be in my hands long

hmm..looks like streak still worth to own hows the performance compare with tab? can run as smooth as tab?

Don't see much difference between the two. The Streak seems slightly snappier but you don't really see it unless compare ; I'd just say is microscopic . I used the same set of apps on both. Only difference is homescreen launcher. I use Zeam on TAB and ADW on Streak.
As said earlier, the Streak is a great smartphone, with Stephen's rom is even better than the HD2 ( on various Froyo roms), outclass my previous Galaxy S, just a point or two below the NexusOne.

wow..not bad then..actually i am quite sastify with tab already..if this can be on par, i think it still worth it..but dual core around the corner... like you said only S II is the nearest to this .. with 4.3inch.. other than tat really nth close.. worth to consider
