Hey buddy,
Have you looked in the "Alpine" section of the forums??
If you go to the upgrading section of the Alpine forum, there are step by step guides to flashing your rom.
I wouldn't worry too much about the phone being stuck in bootloader mode (thats where the screen says usb 1.01 etc), as when you flash the rom successfully it will fix that.
My rom recommendations:
Check out Deathnoise's custom rom, it has all you need (and everything you don't need has been stripped out!!!)

Hi Guys,
I recently purchased an HTC Magic, a great piece of kit. Updated to 1.6 when the update was available.
I now want to root it but found the method of using the recovery flasher and the associated guide (http://www.ryebrye.com/blog/2009/08/16/android-rooting-in-1-click-in-progress/) no longer works for 1.6.
So the question is, can I downgrade to 1.5 easily (note I'm on Vodafone not T-Mobile), and if so how?
Alternatively, I did identify the following guide, but not sure how compatible this is with my model:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream/Magic32B_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
Anyone have experience of rooting this model from this provider?
Cheers in advance.
I used universal androidroot to soft root it,
then installed Rom Manager and ASTRO file manager from the Market.
Then flash recovery image in Rom Manager and after that you can either update your Radio+SPL or just go ahead and install GiO's Froyo 2.2 ROM from here:

Hi Guys,
I am really sorry if this is a repeated post,
I am not a expert but can follow instructions very well,
I am using a Dell Streak 5 and it was shipped with 2.2 and i recently upgraded to 2.3.3(Olleh) version and the base band version is 357 and the kernel is 2.6.35.7-perf and i am not liking this version of OS and i want to get back to the original OS which was shipped with the phone.
The phone is rooted as well.
My friend did this for me,I am not sure how he did this.
Can anyone help me step by step on how to get back to factory installed 2.2 version??
That would be a great help for me if anyone can help me with this.
Ok...so your 2.2.2 version was 357, you went to 407 and now you want to go back to 357?
The basic steps to flash a ROM are found in the Dell Streak wiki. There is additional information in the thread titled "Everything you always wanted to know about the Streak but were too busy bricking it" that may be helpful. With those two sources of information there is no need to give you a detailed how-to since it has already been done. The main thing you need to do other than following the directions is download the 357 recovery and the 357 update package from the wiki.
Hi i looked for 357 package and its no available in wiki,
Any idea where i can get them from??
cant i try the lates version??
357 is only available preinstalled on devices, there's no way to return to it as the pkgs are not available for it.
Hi Thank you for replying me back,
Can i install any other package apart from this??
If you want Froyo, flash Streakdroid 1.9.1. You'll find it here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs

I didn't look at the list of ROMs so I had no clue 357 was a preinstalled ROM. Sorry about that. Use 360 instead. It includes some apps Dell thought might be useful but are also easily removed. What it doesn't have is bloatware forced on it from the cellular service providers.
HI Guys,
Thanks for your valuable replies,
I have fixed the issue,
Let me tell you what i have done so that others can try.
I have initialised fastboot and used flashrecovery 0.8 and used 357 ROM and after the phone rebooted after the flash i HELD THE VOLUME DOWN KEY AND THE POWER BUTTON AND THE PHONE STARTED TO BOOT FINE.

Don't go back to Froyo, go all the way to CM7!
Once you're at 407 rom go the next step and go CM7:

You MUST try out CM7 on the streak. You MUST!
I am creating this thread as a follow up to this one HERE. It is to discuss an important topic/trick whereby the carrier on our x8 can be unlocked. I welcome with wide arms any comments about whether this worked on your phone. The thread summarises all the key points made there.
Please Delete this thread if this has been discussed already.Requirements:
-A locked bootloader
-The guts to unlock your bootloader
-An x8
-All you need to do is unlock your bootloader through flashtool. Many users including me, have reported a SIM unlock after doing this.
If you have used msm7227 to unlock. The only way you can do this is by relocking.
Although many may already know this I have created this tiny guide to help new users understand this.

You can root and flash a rom that works with stock kernel like gdx or froyopro.
Please give credit where credit is due..
If you can't even search how can I help you??
