Reuse the original, there is also a specific recovery image to be used with the 315. It has already been posted in this forum.

[Q] Question about flashing 2.2 from an older 2.2 image

Hi there, I've searched a lot for an answer, but haven't found anything. I don't want to make a mistake and end up with an unusable device.
I bought a used Streak off eBay, which is already running Android 2.2 (Baseband GAUSB1A130900-EU build number 11548). I am having problems authorising Facebook widgets, which I believe is linked to a problem loading HTTPS sites (needed to authorise some Facebook widgets such as the LauncherPro one).
I would like to upgrade to this rom:
http://android.modaco.com/content/d...o-com/325595/dell-new-official-rom-8-12-2010/
Which apparently solves the above problem.
Could anyone talk me through what is required? The problem is I don't know what has been done to the handset before I bought it, is there any way to check? Does it need to be rooted to 'upgrade' from 2.2 to another 2.2 image? Do I just need to copy the new image to the SD card, rename it and boot into recovery mode? My desktop is running Ubuntu if that affects the procedure.
Any help is much appreciated.
You need to update your streak to build to 12332, the 315 package first. To do this just download it from xda-forums(I can't find which forum right now), rename it Update.pkg(should already have .pkg on end of it). Then boot into recovery by turning off Streak, then hold volume up & down & power button @ the same time. You should see 4 options, choose option 2(something about installl Update.pkg). Your phone will then ask you to press the camera button to begin update.

Thanks a lot for the reply. After I've installed the image you suggest is it then safe to install the one I originally linked to?
Is the rule to generally only upgrade one release at a time?
Thanks.

i just downloaded the 315 file from the dell website with the stock browser on the streak..then installed it by tapping the downloaded file in the top bar while my streak stayed connected to my pc with the usb cable....and did the same with the 318 file.
It has to reboot several times during the update but it works perfect.
no rooting, no recovery needed... i have also an unlocked euro version with 1.6 first.
-so 1.6 to 2.2 en now the latest 318 version.
Not necessary to update to 315 first. Just follow this link:
http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A111800
Worked perfect for me!

This post is correct. I forgot that you have the image already if you are on Froyo. Just follow the link from your phone and you should be fine
Great, thanks a lot guys.

How to update Dell O2 1.6 Build 3883 to 2.2 But???

I have Dell Streak Build 3883 with O2 1.6 and i want to upgrade to 2.2 but when I try to update any thing from my sd card LCD becomes blank what to do
Have you flashed a new recovery? Which version of 2.2 are you trying to update to? Also, this doesn't belong here. Check out streakdroid.com for guides. Your best bet may be to use QDL tool.
