Hi,

I think it for the 00 unlocked model because that what there is in the url on the top.

I am using an unlocked device direct from dell on tmobile in uk and it yes me to update am now downloading will know shortly

I've got the blinkers on now as well!?!
I hope it's just that for now, and it isn't going to explode!
Dell must fix this ASAP!

WTF? Talk about building up expectations and then slapping us all down again! I assume that this was an error on Dell's part and not a joke at our expense...

I have an unlocked US version, and I keep getting a notification that says "software update available" When I click on it, the screen says "your device is up to date". What's going on here?

Could it be that it's been rooted? I've read that the updates are pre-rooted....but then again, I thought this was going to be 2.1 I read that a lot of people who rooted their phones experience flashing buttons.

Depends which application you are using, oovoo works with front camera, I have spoken to both fring and tango devs and they say they are actively working on a fix for the streak. Unfortunately the tango app dev said he can't get his streak to froyo yet so he's waiting on the upgrade : smirk:

What's version of the streak do u have?

Hey is there a way to find out what version of the streak I had?
I bought my second hand and already had 2.2 on it and it was unlocked. When I turn it on it has an O2 logo but when I go the dell website it says its a US phone.
The baseband is 319 US

Call Dell and give them the service tag to look up.
Sent from my Dell Streak

if it has to be really simple
I think you can call up the person you bought it from, and ask!
Not funny, but practically fast!
Does the service tag have that information? I doubt so..
^(If the assumption is wrong, please do let me know.)
care,
Sony.

Got it off ebay and now that I left the person a good feedback already he wont respond. I will check the service tag later cuz if I take of the battery cover phone will turn off.

Service tag is found also in Settings, about and it should be listed there along info such as imei number etc.

Now now.. Dont be so negative before you try that!
Will just take a phone call! (worth the try, if you need the BB ASAP!)
I am really not sure about the Service tag info.
If you find, do let us know too.
care,
Sony.

Donation to Dj Steve for ICS/JB development

I have talked to Dj Steve about ICS/JB development; he told me that if we can donate him to buy a second hand Streak, he can develop a ICS/JB rom for our Streak 5.
Average price of a second hand Streak is app. 170 GBP in the UK.

Yea your reading right folks ill help out if i can get another s5 to test on.

I have just donated too.
It will be great to have DJ Steve back with us again.

Thanks. If anyone wants to donate in a money other than USB or Gbp let me know and ill create a donate link for it

sadly, my streak days are done. My son cracked my lcd. I'd be willing to donate it though. perhaps buying a new LCD will be cheaper than getting a used streak?

Having replaced screen on a 5 I'd rather not do it again lol

Steve...I sent you an email. I'd be willing to sell you my streak cheap and then I'll consider the rest a donation.
My steak is in perfect working order, been using it as a daily driver but I'm looking for the next wave of Nexus 4's to come out and I have a couple back up phones I can use until then. I was going to sell it to Amazon's e-recycling program, but I'd rather see it put to good use. The inner SD card is swapped out to a 4 GB class 10 and I downgraded the external SD to an 8GB, but don't let that be a deal breaker as I can always buy a new 16 GB for you.
Please get in contact with me.

Have replied to ur emails

How about doing it this way: we take the one with damaged screen, buy an LCD with donation money and I'll do the replacement procedure and post a working device to DJ_Steve. Would be a shame to skip on such opportunity offered by trf000 as this is the cheapest option available. As I have done screen replacement in my pwn Streak, I can do it again no problem. Let me know what you chaps think. Cheers.

Ive no objections to that just last time i changed screen streak was quite messy after due to the double sided tape not sticking
Sent from my streak7 using Tapatalk 2

I donated some money before for the exact same purpose, but I am still willing to put some euros down for the upgrade. I also happen to have a second DS5 with a cracked screen and a replacement for it. With a nice dock and an extra battery, I'd be OK with shipping it to Steve for ebay europe price -say, averaging the last 5-10 sales- minus 15%.

Hope my USD donation provides a boost
I'm a developer in the US and am also interested in learning about developing the next generation of Android on this platform. I use my Streak 5 as my primary device, but if there are emulation capabilities, then I can help.

If/when i get enough to get a streak and hopefully the dock for it i may be able to setup my home server to allow remote access to try things on my streak when im not devving on it (i.e when im asleep) if that would be of use.
