Dell streak won't get passed dell logo - Streak 5 General

Hi Everyone
I am new here and I do not understand how to get my dell streak back to factory conditions and my dell streak will not go passed the dell logo when rebooting. I have tried a lot of different things. Maybe I am not doing it right. Can someone give me step by step directions. I just want to put my dell streak back to 1.6 and unroot it. I appreciate you all for helping me out.

Follow the instructions in the post bellow i know it works fine so if you do not get back to 1.6 then you must be doing some thing wrong this method will work good luck

I appreciate you helping me out. Can you please type me exactly the way the command lines should be? I cannot get it right. I can do the rest. Thanks again in advance.

Thank you for your help. I talked to Dell and I was able to get my new one yesterday at my house.

What does the recalibration process do? Mine seems to stop reading my finger at certain points, such as trying to slide to answer a call. Could this resolve that problem?
Yes, it may resolve it, but in my case only temporarily.

No sound during phone calls

Really quite annoying! Got my rebelsim today, all works fine except this, yes volume is turned up, not sure what it could be?
Thanks in advance for any replies

I just thought to check whether it works on speakerphone- it does, so is my streak broken?
Could be, check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=763468
This person's earpiece stopped working and Dell said that it was a known issue, send it back to Dell or O2 and they should either fix it or replace it for you. Hope that helps!
ah yea, cheers dude, will see what dell say

[q] magic 32a bricked, need advice

My Magic has stucked at "HTC MAGIC" logo ,no access to fastboot or whatever. I live in cyprus. I've sent it to different people that where "experts" to bring it back to "life" but nothing. Someone told me that he tried jtag method but nothing happened too. He told me that propably there is something wrong with mainboard and it has to be changed. Is that possible? Or they are fooling me around? Anw, as i said before i live in cyprus so i don't know if there is someone who can make this phone work again. Can you suggest someone abroad? To be more specific someone in London (London centre). I have friends there they wouldnt bother doing that small favour to me.
Thanks in advance
I had same problem and tried one London repairer(others were too expensive unfortunately) who gave it back to me as not repairable - totally wasting my time because I don't think they even had a riff box. I then sent it off to Fonefun and they have restored it, but due to the imcompetence of local post I'm still waiting to get it back after it being sent back last Thurday!!
I can report back properly once its in my hands, but I do think they are worth a look at (just google fonefun). You can chat to them online which could be useful as you're not in the UK.
update: got phone back and it works. Royal mail are funny though, not.
thanks for ur reply, i've sent it last week so i'm waiting. hp it works!
Glad to be of help. I hope they succeed with yours like they did with mine.
They certainly know what they are doing, however I don't think cleaniness is exactly one of their top priorities, mind you my shiny brick did become a dirty working magic so I'm happy.
It'd be interesting to know how you get on.
They are the best! They fix it and sent ot back to me in three days time! (Cyprus mail sucks btw! It took them almost 10 days to put my package on a flight! ) As u can see magic is still alive! Thanks again for ur help!

Excellent news - glad it worked out ok for you! I found communication to be one of Fonefun's strongpoints, as for postage, unfortunately for both of us that one is out of their control!

any one here try DSPmanager?

if so, were you able to get it to work?
You have a link?

Yeah I use it... just do a search for it... I think I got mine from the Evo forum but not sure, but it's in here somewhere
It does help with the sound clarity somewhat, but not a lot can be done with the crappy speaker they put in the Streak

[Q] Removing ripped off message from Vegacomb?

Hi guys,
I just got a vega today and the first thing I did was install vegarom.
That message that pops up about being ripped off is horrid. Can I remove it?
Thanks
(Please don't flame me)
I don't mind switching it with the logo of the team that built vegacomb, I just don't want that nasty message there

I would like the same thing on my device too.
Not very appealing everytime I restart it or when someone sees that screen. I know its there to warn people to not get fooled by some Chinese rip off suppliers, but would be good to have some alternative there.
This isn't something that I really want to encourage if I'm being honest. But if you want to do this yourself, I will give one hint:
*.rle - It's in boot
newbe5
Thank you for your hint
Do you have a file, perhaps with your team logo I can replace it with?
You're welcome to pm me

Or maybe make it look a little bit nicer?
Or could it be done so that it only comes up for the first say 3 times you turn the Vega on?
It's an all-or-nothing thing I'm afraid. It was made intentionally to be very in-your-face, to stop people from missing it

Thats fair enough, and to be fair, it only lasts for a matter of seconds so I can live with it

Oh, ok. Well though I'd rather replace it with your logo (or something) I can also just remove it.
I appreciate your help!

Can some one please PM me how to do it ? I am not quite sure where the file is located at and can't search for it using the app I have.
Many thanks
I'm also struggling to find anything. From what I've been reading there's a boot partition named mtd2 and I think, based on my limited knowledge, it could be in there.
I'm not sure if that is or could be writable, or if you have to extract the update.zip and edit it, then having to reflash the vega in order for it to go away. I can donate to anyone interested in figuring it out.
Either way, I'm determined to get it removed, it irritates me every time I turn my vega on.
It certainly doesn't help that when I adb shell into it, all I get are random letters and numbers when entering "ls" so I have no discernible way of telling where I am or what I'm doing most of the time. Oh, and debugging seems to disconnect itself from my laptop every 5 minutes, requiring a reboot to get back into it.
You need to unpack the boot.img, replace the file newbie5 said. Then repack and flash the modified boot.img
I am not going into more detail as newbie5 does not want it to be made to easy, I can see why.
You don't need to, thanks. I read it elsewhere on XDA and assumed it would also work in this case.

I have sorted it.. much better!
I'm not sure if something went wrong with the repacking, but I've had some random reboots since. Trying to figure out if it is related.

Scrap that, reboots were unrelated and have stopped

How big a deal is this? I don't get it.
I'm curious - how often do people reboot their Vega's? I boot might maybe a couple of times a month and then, the screen is only visible for a few seconds so it's number 657,391 on my list of things to worry about.
IMHO the value of it far outweighs a few seconds a month.
I turn mine off/on many times during the day.
If it doesn't concern you then that's fine. Move along now, there's a good chap.

I couldn't agree more. What was your vega like out of the box? What is it like now?
Jesus, small price to pay for the the team trying to protect their VOLUNTARY work.
Good way to get rid of it? Don't use this rom.
Better way to get rid of it? Edit boot.img.
Do you hear that? It's the sound of me having my cake, and eating it too.

Touche'! And enjoy the cake.
