I have an AT&T streak I got a week or so ago. Last night I successfully upgraded it to 2.2 using the info from modaco. (AT&T 1.6 -> o2 1.6 -> 6267-> 2.2)
Today just for giggles I tried to do software update check and noticed the URL for the update check showed my current baseband number (00) but also listed my service tag number. That got me thinking. Is Dell then keeping track of which service tags ship with which baseband and then will not allow ota upgrades if it doesn't match what their records show?
Thoughts? I hope that isn't the case. I was going to return my streak to reorder the US unlocked version they were going to sell in a couple weeks but cancelled that cause I was able to get baseband 00 and 2.2 installed. Now I am wondering if I should still do it cause I don't want to be excluded from further ota updates.
future updates can also be applied the same way you did with 2.2
Yeh I relalize that but still would be nice to just be able to get ota updates and not have to worry about it.
well cant say really much about it since it needs to happen first. my steak is that they use servicetags for the update mechanisme , like they do on pc. this isnt going to send out any personal data but it can track the device if stolen or anything.
The great developers and testers at sdx-developers came up with two version of Froyo using VM USA Froyo release.
1.
Rooted Froyo ROM for those who previously upgraded to Sprint Froyo 2.2
For Sprint baseband, DL05 or DF27
2.
Stock Froyo ROM based on latest VM USA
A few people tested this and reported that MMS and Voice Mail notifications working again.

Please read in detail and decide for yourself.
I'm still not sure about this update. It's not as simple as running Update.zip, right? You need to flash it, then do a factory reset, then download another program, run that, and THEN it works? Also, is this a modified ROM at all?
Yeah, this isn't the zipped rom from Virgin Mobile, this is pieced (back) together from the 2.2 update installed on an Intercept after the fact, apparently.
3:30pm PDT on 4/13 and still nothing.
I still haven't seen anybody come up with the actual 2.2 Froyo zipped rom from Virgin Mobile. Apparently everyone so far has popped a nut when they get the update and installed it directly instead of downloading it and choosing to install it later, then locating it on their phone and posting it somewhere.
I've got aLogcat installed. I am just waiting for the update to show up. I've seen the message that it is coming. Still waiting for it to arrive though. When it does I'll try to get the devs what they need. I don't really know what I am doing, but I'll give it a go.
I guess this no longer matters as the official update is now in the hands of SDX-Developers.
got mine on 4/20
holy sweet baby jesus this stuff is killing me! I've managed (by the grace) to get my bf's intercept rooted (not temp).. been on this for hours! I'm fairly accustomed to the process as I have an evo and been flashing nightlies for months.
I can't get a recovery on the phone via swupgrade. I put the cm01.tar in the binary folder by itself, and the thing goes through right to the last part and just sits there, doesn't transfer. heeeelp pleeeease! I'm so sick of this now. I was able to delete much of the bloat ware and now I'm wondering if it's worth the trouble to try and get a better rom / kernel. Advice?
I just recently picked up a dell streak. It's brand new with what I'm guessing it the latest shipped rom which is build number 15274 running android version 2.2.2
All I see is custom roms and reflashing back to other roms to root....blah blah blah...is there a way to just root my current rom and not have to flash a completely new one? I'm all for supporting the community, I'd just like to keep this as device as clean as possible and remove all the bloatware.

Download SuperOneClick v1.5.5 and root away. Dont forget to put your phone into USB debugging mode before rooting, its very important that you do that. Or just follow the steps in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=925853 good luck.
Wow thanks, I totally skipped over that post!!! I guess from what I was reading I was expecting the whole process to be a lot more complicated.
Thanks a ton!
Anytime.

How come Dell don't push out the 2.2.2 version OTA to their customers?
I check for updates every day, but have just once received any. (2.2)
Their way of saying; "we just don't give a f*ck about our customers"?
You should have gotten that update weeks ago. It's been OTA for probably about a month now. And I don't know how much you've read, but a lot of what happened with not updating from 1.6 was probably AT&T's fault because they wouldn't okay the build (speculated). Dell had the source up for 2.2 for a long time, if I remember correctly.
I'm on unlocked stock EU ROM since day one. Just to clarify.
Do you mean the 2.2.2 was shipped OTA, for EU users too?
Ohhh. Didn't notice you were on EU. I don't know if Dell released one for EU yet (probably hasn't since you don't have the option to OTA). Just remember that it's not just the phone maker responsible for updates, the carrier has some say in it, too. Are you still on 1.6? Because you could always try out DJ Steve's ROM if you wanted to try something different.
No, the one OTA update I received, was the 1.6 --> 2.2 on last October.
Since then - nothing. I guess it's only in America people get the 2.2.2.
Thanx for taking time to reply.
No problem, haha. I hope you get it soon
I really want the update to, I'm in the Uk and I'm still on 2.2, I would do it myself but its just to complicated and don't wanna mess up my phone. Has anyone in the Uk got the 2.2.2 upgrade? And to be honest I really wont the 2.3 upgrade, but seeing as we still don't have the 2.2.2 upgrade, I think we'll be waiting a long time :'(
2.2.2?
If someone updated from 1.6, to the "non official" 2.2, is there any difference between it and 2.2.2?
2.2.2 is supposedly immune to the malware loaded from the 50 or so infested apps that Google removed recently from the market.
Hi, and thanks in advance for anyone who can help.
I have a desire hd phone, witch I love anyways I had it rooted a few months ago by a local phone shop, but I didn’t really see the benefit from it, in fact it caused problems so I performed a full factory reset within a few days, and thought that was the end of it.
Anyways my phone received the option to update to the 2.3 gingerbread on Monday, it downloads fine, and then when the install starts it freezes at about 20% of the way thorough.
I have contacted HTC several times about it, they say the phone will not update if it’s been rooted and I have to send it back to them to have it re-flashed, one person said it would cost £30, another said £200 so I would rather not send it to them. the last guy I spoke to was very helpful, he said it was possible for me to reflash the phone to its original ''shipped'' state, and if I joined a help forum I could possibly get some help, but he was unable to advise me on this., so here I am!!!
I received the phone new in January and it has had no updates until the one on Moday, and it was rooted using visionary a few months ago, I have performed several factory restores since then.
Current software is:
android version 2.2
baseband version 12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_m
build number 1.37.771.3 CL290190
software number 1.37.771.3
im in the uk, and on the 3 network
Many thanks,
Jamie

Check your other thread my friend. I have answered your query in there.
Posting 2 threads to have one question answered... Can't you muster the patience to actually wait for an answer? Also, maybe use the search button, it helps. Really.
Come on. Just show a little initiative. You rooted the device, then it shouldn't be a problem to unroot.
Closed.
I was just pushed the PG2 update and I'm on official stock rooted PF4. When I look at the update.zip it says its build G900VVZW2DPG2 at around 108 MB in size. Let me know what you guys think [safe to install directly or not and wait].

Wait. Last Friday, I put the file in the existing update to thread and mentioned the two main people who have been making rooted versions for a while now. They haven't said anything last I looked, but I have yet to check for anything today.

Sorry about that. I tried doing a search for PG2 in the threads but didn't find anything. I see your post now. Hopefully they can get something worked out soon.
It doesn't say PG2, most of the threads update their names once they have put in a new way; but no one has done that for PG2 yet. Most people were not expecting us to get another update so soon; so I am guessing they haven't checked it yet.
Im debating whether to mess around with it since my phone is just plain jacked right now. I think my PF4 update didnt go well or something cause I only am getting about 20 minutes of battery life when I was getting over half a day. Now that we are 2.5 phones away from this one, I doubt there will be much support to root the updates.
Downloading full PG2.
I will build new rom flashable via twrp/flashfire.
Update
I upgrade from version to G900VVZW2DPG2.
The update addresses any errors Stagefright the probe and all this norrmal. I am now in version Saturday the G900VVRU2BPB1 aver if I can make root
Hello friends I installed the update PG2 and I have not noticed changes that can be noticed and the security version only came up to September one, if they know of any other changes please share
In case you haven't found it yet, here is the thread to upgrade your rom to rooted PG2. If you wish to upgrade your bootloader to an unlocked PG2 bootloader, the first post also includes a link to the thread which deals with that.

So its not just me. I've had my phone sitting at my desk, untouched, streaming spotify for the last hour, its at 20% after a full charge. I had it in my pocket Saturday at a basketball game, it was down to 50% after about 25 minutes without touching it.
