As to that "Dell Claire" you see near the top, we're hearing it's the T-Mo version of the Dell Streak.

Thx...

I have the Dell beta Streak on tmobile right now. I was previously a blocked ATT customer and without 3G the internets is very slow. Opening 300kb email attachment is slow as well as youtube and browsing the web. Google maps and navigation seem fine. But it also just loses its edge service when switching wifi on and off, making me have to reset the device.
I would rebuy the Streak if it supported tmobile 3G

Streak Question

I have a chance to buy a dell streak.. Fully unlocked from my Uncle.. Just got a quick question he got the OTA update from o2 when he was over seas.. so updated to 2.1
Now I was wondering if this phone would work on Bell Network in canada? Or is the frequency different then bells voice and 3g service..
Go to pdadb.net, or dells product site for the streak and compare those frequencies with your carriers, simple as that.

If it's the US version you will get voice and 3g on Bell. If it's the UK version you will get voice but you will not get any data. So make sure it's the US version!
I'm using an AT&T locked version on Rogers with the Rebel Simcard.

O2 android 2.2 update

Hi is anyone having problems with o2 update. I cant seem to get 3g working on my streak and I know im in a 3g area because my other phones pick up 3g ?

No problems like that, a couple of apps seem to be playing up since the upgrade but I'm not sure that's the fault of the upgrade so much as the apps not liking later versions of Android or possibly the new EX version of ADW.

Unlocked T-Mobile From Dell Question

I see that Dell is selling the Streak UNLOCKED now .. Does that mean 'unlocked' to T-Mobile ? Their website is complete rubbish. I can't find anywhere on the site where it states anything about the connection .. Does it get 3G or 4G on T-Mobile? Or is it just like the betas .. 3G for ATT only. Thanks.
It's the same phone just unlocked from yhe factory. So tmobile edge only. 3g only on att

[Q] Buy or wait?

This guy know is selling his T-Mobile SGT for $425, it would come with a leather case and screen protectors. I checked it out and it's in very good condition (ESN is good).
I was wondering if it would be a good idea to go ahead and buy it from him or wait until April 1st to buy a brand new wifi model?
I don't plan on setting the tab up with 3G, just going to use it with wifi and phone tether.
Any advice? Thanks!
You can get it at tmobile for 249

Yeah, but you are committed to a 2-year data plan.
If you do the math, that is a lot of money for 2 years.
Went ahead and just bought it. :X
Decided I couldn't wait that long for one lol. Plus I figured that since it came with a case and screen protector, I was getting a decent deal.
Finally, I can consider myself a proud tablet owner.
Well mine is cheaper I gave up my fone and use my tab.....and transferred my data plan which is 29.99 unlimited...only thing im signed in for 2 years but my data plan is cheap....and I use the 3g service allot

If I am not mistaken, do you have AT&T tab?
Because if you have the T-mobile tab, then you can only have calling ability (like a phone) but only get 2G data instead of 3G. Am I correct?
Yeah I have tmobile ...i use sip droid and google voice combined for calls....hopefully wit the update to 2.3..we all can enjoy the enabled voip calling which will be nice

Is there any way to check if my Streak is unlocked without using a non-AT&T SIM?

Because I don't have access to one. I'm considering selling it.
Thanks in advance.
Mike.
To the best of my recollection, in order to use the unlock code that you got for the Streak you have to put a SIM from another carrier into the phone. Find a friend with T-Mobile and borrow his SIM for a minute to unlock your phone.
Dell will give you the unlock code no questions asked...just call.

You did not buy the phone new? If you did and you got it anywhere except Dell then it probably carrier locked.
I would call Dell and give the phone info, they can probably tell you if it was sold unlocked.
once my streak unlocked one time, do I still need the code for future, if I need to switch to switch carrier again. thanks in advance.
No.

I've had 5 different dell streaks so this is from my experience... if you're on AT&T and get "H" data, then your phone is unlocked. If you only get "3G" then your phone is locked.
H and 3G is rom dependant and has nothing to do with the lock status per se
at&t roms have the H icon disabled so it only shows 3g.
All other roms show H when HSPA is available and 3g when only UMTS is available (which is rather rare now)
