Hi guys,

I just got myself a Dell Streak today and looking to turning it into FroYo. Looked and found myself the ROM by Stephen Hyde on MoDaCo. Don't know if it's worth upgrading and if the guide there is applicable to my device. I got it from ct-trade (thanks buddy) and I'd believe it's running on 1.6 build 4399 or something. Someone enlighten me please. Thanks.

Oh god. I think I might have bricked my device on day one. Currently looping on the Dell logo. Managed to reach the 2.1 O2 Rom then when I proceed to the next step, on the progress bar moved a bit then error.

SOS. Help needed.

After a few trial and error session, finally managed to get it to work. At 5am. Running on froyo now. Any recommendations on keyboard? Existing one looks and feel funny.

Thanks for the link Benny. You're a live saver.

Now for the next mission. Getting a case for this monster. Anyone got used case for sale? Or advice me on what case is good. I'm having my eye on the original case by dell themselves which can fit into the dock.

The thing is, the keyboard when expanded is kinda short and stubby. Making it kinda hard to type accurately. Any way to make it taller? I got myself the better keyboard.

Hi,

Anyone wanna do a bulk on the otterbox case? There's a few on eBay. Some looked like fake or something due to the pricing.

Hi,

Just curious. To those who have gotten the OtterBox, how much did you pay for them? And how's the additional bulk? Still pocketable?

Happy Deepavali to all Hindu friends!

Wow! So fast and yet there's already a 1.20 Froyo. But I can't seem to find the download link sad.gif

@benny888 - is it the one at www.streakdroid.com? If so, it shows the link is dead for some reason. Does the upgrade do a total wipe of the device? Kindly advice. Thanks.

Find me a buyer as well, man. For 3k. I give you commission. LOL!

Anyways, on a side note. I wanna ask you guys here something. Do you guys use PAPAGO? I've purchased Papago X5 only to find it not working with the Streak. It says "Unsupported Resolution 480 x 800". How do I make it work? I tried the trick they do on the Samsung Galaxy Tab with Spare Part but still not working. Kindly advice. Thanks.

Hi people,

Those who have the otterbox. Kindly advice on the look and feel of the case. Is it a hard case or a skin actually. Kinda confuse on this one. And where did you get it from. If from ebay, which seller? Mind posting the link? Kinda interested. Kindly advice. Thanks.

Ok. I've done it. I have my backside handed to me nicely. I was on DJ_Steve's Froyo 1.3.0 and I did a factory reset. The phone has been stuck on Dell logo for the past 2 days. I can't revert back to 4399, 8105 or any other rom.

Can some kind soul assist me on this one. I would offer a small reward on who can help me revive the streak. And I forgot what ROM I was running originally. I got it off ct-trade. Wonder if it was 4399 or something else.

I tried every thing possible. 1.1.1 and everything. Literally everything. Even joined the irc channel #dellstreak and yet not solved. What am I missing?

I managed to get 1.3 to work before it is stuck. But after that I did a factory reset. And have been stuck ever since. It would be great help if anyone else who purchased from ct-trade and haven't flash anything to their Streak tell me what was the default ROM and baseband. I wanna try to revert back to the default ROM and see if it works.

Thanks a lot fo bro Noobi3 for coming all the way to Cheras to help out. Really appreciate it. Been thinking maybe us owners of Streak in Klang Valley should come out one day, have a gathering and share info and stuff. I used to attend MyPDAcafe's Beamfest in Mont Kiara's Starbucks. Maybe we can do something similar with Streak owners.
