Update is over wifi, so no issues with which sim. And an unlock is for life ;-)

as stated the update is over wifi and you wont loose your unlock but you will have to wait till the AT&T update is released though

[q] 2.1 for dell streak unlocked

Hi everybody,
Does anyone know when DELL will release the 2.1 update for the unlocked device. I know it's going to be released by "OTA" but I would like to know when because I don't want to root my device so I am a bit impatient.
If anyone knows, thanks for answering.

I've bought it in UK and my streak was unlocked and free of any provider; the 2.1 isn't release yet; so I think we will all have to wait; september isn't far...
All The info from Dell is the OTA is set to September but not specific day

Official 2.2 is here! Finally!! Well, for some...

check it out...

but...since I'm with ATT US, sounds like the wait continues!
At least I'm using O2 2.1 (build 8105)... so I'm getting most of the benefit.

There are plenty of threads here and on modaco about downgrading...but my guess is as soon as it's available and people start installing it...it will only be a matter of HOURS before it's .pkg up for all different versions and markets.

It's starting out for Streaks bought UNLOCKED only...not sure if you unlocked it afterwards if that applies too.
Then upgrades for Streaks locked to various carriers (O2, ATT, Rogers, etc.) will become available beginning early Dec.
ive got a factory unlocked streak... EU, OEM2.1, running the leaked O2 leaked 2.1 but im not able to update, currently in AU
Might have to downgrade to 1.6 i think ?

I have unlocked streak non branded. Still no update. Location is netherlands.

Q. Can I run the update, even if I don’t get the official notice, by copying the URL from someone else’s device?
A. No, the final link to download the 2.2 Froyo update will be non-functional unless the browsing session is initiated via the software update mechanism on the Streak device. This is because the software update application in the device communicates with the OTA update server to authenticate the update session. The link to the update is dynamically set to download the correct software package based on the device that is connecting to the update server. Please wait for the software update notice to display on the device itself, when your version of the software is ready for the upgrade. You can continue to check for updates manually by going to Menu->Settings->About device->System Updates which will connect to the update server and correctly check for an update.

interesting. the baseband number is different but i suppose it would be.
FOTA miss match from 309 to 318 what is incorrect?
Tried it but new
I tried the download, which sent to my 31 build att device as .pkg file and then installed. told me about to update and then after rebooting... it just stuck on the dell logo. finally pulled the battery and it rebooted with no issues, but also. no 2.2 No I am jsut getting my feet wet in this whole android arena with the ROMs and so forth. but should I try another method or will it not overlap the att 31 build ?

umm, I cant give u an exact answer, because I only have one Dell Streak with GAUSB1A1800-EU and so far this update give me a smooth experience...so individual experience about upgrading is different here, but I'm sure it is safe to upgrade as long as you follow right instruction and on your running system there are no "some evil" file that can interrupt upgrade process...I'm no expert here...so please dont ask me about techie question
I took a risk and installed it. Went very smooth. The only problem is I still unable to join my contact with FB contact. Probably it s just dell since can do that on my nexus one

I have already flash 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-20-release-keys-signed-Telstra-AU.sbf , do I still need this OTA update? or they are the same?
Can anyone tell me that can I flash ANY rom (eg: at&t , ME860 etc ) or only bell and telstra ROM only after a unlocked boot loader + CWM? I m not sure cos I just got my telstra MB860 yesterday.
Telsra has nothing to do with rolling out the OTA. It's now Motorola that is responsible for updating. Check the Motorola website and they still haven't got the ATRIX listed for ant updates yet. Try your phones settings update and there isn't anything else either.

I flashed the gingerbread sbf that was posted here a few days ago. It's less than impressive. I was considering rolling back to 2.2 but decided to give CM7 beta a crack and so far so good. The phone is like a rocketship now!
Is the bootloader open?
Thanks
I have the new Telstra update installed and would be willing to help find out. If someone could leave instructions in this thread, I'll have a crack at it in the morning.
Loaded gingerbread last night via WIFI and it took 2hrs to download. But everything is running really well now.

Update ! Fail
Hey Guys,
Attempted update numerous times. Failed every time.
Was rooted, but have unrooted.
I don't think there's anything that should stop it from updating to GB.
Any suggestions on a fix?
Anyone else find it crazy that Telstra finally gets its butt into gear just before ICS?
Rooted the new update with the application found here.
bootloader unlocked?
Anyone else not get their bootloader unlocked with the 2.3 update? I had to manually unlock mine, but in the end it was fairly easy using the guides on here.
Just that i heard/read that the bootloader was supposed to be unlocked with the 2.3 update, so thought i would ask.

No it was still locked. The Telstra update sbf was more a service sbf than a complete upgrade/wipe (I tested this by flashing the sbf with RSD lite, over the air as well as the Moto Updater - results all the same) - as in you dont lose any of your settings or apps, just updated the OS but doesnt do anything else.

you can tell if you are unlocked, as when you turn on the phone, it says "unlocked" in the top left. cant miss it.

I got it too, but Im on 4.0.3 KA13 at the moment. I thought AT&T was on 2.3.4 already so it must be a different 2.3.4 firmware like .62 maybe. I would like to know what FW it is also. But I don't feel like contacting AT&T right now.

I just called at&t to get official info about this. They said it was build 3.0.1.B.0.285, which has been out since April. They could not tell me why they sent out a sms about it being a "CRITICAL UPDATE". I recommend NOT getting this update as it will remove root access and as far as I know there is currently no way to root .285.

It is indeed build 3.0.1.B.0.285. I was rooted before I ran the update, and I did not loose root access afterwords. Whether or not you can root after you update if you are not already rooted I do not know.
If you OTA the update you can keep root, but if you use pc companion you will loose root. OTA would not work for me so I had to use PCC, lost root, then had to flash back to .270. Sorry, I should have specified about OTA vs PCC.

You can't do OTA if you are "bootloader unlocked. And about critical-"It's *critical* that AT&T and Verizon come out of the stone age!! We are almost on Jelly Bean.lmao. They just push these out to catch one of us with unlocked bootloaders slipping to force us to buy a new phone.
