Help!!! none of the rom i flash work!!

i tried to flash 2.2 but i end up getting stuck in dell logo boot up screen. so i try to flash it back to stock 1.6 att rom i flash the stock recovery img first and put the stock 1.6 in my ms, but when i press the volume up and down + power and select option it just gave me a black screen with back light on.
please help im with out a phone right now ;[
also when i try to install djsteve 2.2 it just stays at 20% for around 30-40 sec and then it says completed

OK, I has similar problem but resolved now.
Here is what i did:
Download amss-2.1.mbn file (this is baseband 2.1, 2.2 is what you updated with amss.mbn and it doesnt work).
Put your streak into fastboot mode then select fastboot and plugin your usb cable to your phone and to your system.
Open command prompt on your system
Type in as like before 'fastboot -i 0x413 flash amss amss.mbn'
On completion type 'fastboot -i 0x413 reboot'
Press and hold Vol +/-.
And update Flash with Froyo 2.2 v1.0 (try update v1 or beta first but not v1.2) zip
Reboot
Give this a try.

where do i get v1? i came seem to find it any where. does v1.1.1 work? do i flash the nbm file before or after i flash the rom?
also im on 2.1 right now do i need to root it first?
okayy............
so i got v1.1.1 to work but, when i try to wipe and install 1.2 it got stuck in dell logo again. do i need to reflash the amss in bootloader?

Follow Steve instruction to the letter and all will be good.

Tutorial
To do that follow the steps bellow:
KDZ Updater method
1. Boot in fastboot mode and execute the commands bellow:
- "fastboot -w"
- "fastboot erase system"
- "fastboot erase boot"
2. Reboot from fastboot directly to download mode (Power + Volume Down key)
3. Connect your phone to your PC and open KDZ Updater
4. Select any fastboot ROM
NOTE: YOU CAN NOT FLASH A NORMAL ROM!!! YOU MUST USE A FASTBOOT ROM!!!
5. Flash your rom in "Emergency Mode"
6. When finished the phone will reboot automatically
Recovery method using my brother's recovery file
1. Boot into Recovery mode
2. Wipe your user data (Factory reset)
3. Choose the update.zip file from your SD Card. You can download it here
4. After the update is done, reboot the phone
The ROM is V20A, so it supports Portuguese language.

Hi,
I have the same problem here.
I have upgraded to SwiftDroid 2.3.7 using fastboot command, because there is no boot logo and no recovery in my gt540, after updated with clockwork recovery rom.kdz. But the rom worked just fine.
I had problem the day after. My GT540 won't boot, it only vibrated and when I plug it to PC, Pc recognized fastboot mode. So I downgraded to frenchV20C.kdz without using fastboot -w fastboot erase boot and else.
Now, my gt540 is bricked, it only vibrates when I hold power button, and nothing happen. Can't boot into fastboot mode now.
Any help would be appreciated.

root my dell streak, not shure

Hello, I'm Luis, and i'm newbie here i have bought about 4 months my streak.
Also installed one firewall for some programs don't use 3G connections and only use wifi. that firewall requires root acess.
By your tutorial in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak/Flashing_Guide#Rooting_your_phone
and by your tutorial boot recovery mode http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...g_Guide#Flashing_an_update.zip_with_streakmod
when i press to update from sd card, appears the follwing message:
"Press shutter button to start emergency recovery software"
"Warning: all data will be erase"
"Press volume up to turn off"
What you can tell me about second line "all data will be erase"?
Thanks

I'm betting I know what happened here. After flashing the custom recovery with fastboot, you let your phone reboot didn't you? If you are on a stock rom, flash a custom recovery, and let the phone reboot, the stock rom will rewrite the recovery with the stock recovery.
After flashing the custom recovery, pull the battery. Now replace the battery and power up while holding both volume buttons. When you choose option 2, it will boot into streakmod recovery, where you can flash the superuser.zip file.
Thought I should add:
After rooting, use a root enable file manager (search the market, there are lots of them. I prefer Root Explorer, but it is not free) to delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
Now, since you had to boot with your stock rom, your custom recovery is gone. But you can flash it again and it will stay.

hmm, but i never flash it. Its the original rom, only thing i have done, is OTA upgrade to Froyo..
how can i install a costum recovery?
sorry, but e never dit it before..
=== EDIT ===
you mean install StreakMod Recovery, don't you?
thanks

Welk if you havent flashed it, then thats your problem. You have to flash a custom recovery. And yes, I mean Streakmod. Read those tutorials. They will tell you what you need to know.

Okay, i will try...
sorry, when they say: "Unzip and flash with: fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img"
Its suppose to do this from the phone (but in fastboot, there is olny numbers, no other leters or simbols), so its to do on the computer with usb cable plugged?
What software for flashboot?
thanks

There is a detailed tutorial at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak
Just go thru it. Make sure you read it again and again.
It is not from mobile. You have to connect your streak to PC. Switch that on by pressing the volume + - button and you get to see the driver installation.
You need to install the drivers first on PC.
Then you need to download the fastboot tools (above link contains all)
Open command prompt from fastboot file location
copy the rom/image (what ever you want to flash) to that location
Do the fastboot
I am not going in to detail as the wiki gives much better instructions !
Read... Read and Read !!!

Do you have a dload folder with update.app inside, in sd card?
With that and pressing vol +, vol - and power at same time you enter in flash mode and start to flash the rom

Yes, I have, and it's still not working
I can't charge battery, so i don't think it's software.
Maybe it's motherboard

Hi Have got succeeded or not, if not follow the guide.
Is your phone being detected by PC if yes then you have chances of recovering your phone.
1. Download 15 Seconds ADB and Fastboot Drivers. Visit the official XDA forum for download and installation instructions.
2. Install Huawei HiSuite which will install drivers .
3. If HiSuite doesn't install Install drivers then install universal drivers for your device .
Now connect your device to pc and open HiSuite and click on system recovery it will show options for recovery if it is success then you are fine if not then proceed to this method.
Connect your phone to PC.
Open Command Prompt in the directory where you have extracted the ADB files by holding Shift and Right Mouse Button and finally click Open Command Prompt window here in the context menu.
Completely power off your device.
While holding Volume Down button, connect your device to PC via USB cable to boot to Fastboot Mode.
1. Type the following command in ADB :
Code:
adb devices
If your device is being detected and it shows list of devices attached and its serial number.
2.Now download the firmware of the phone before your phone got bootlooped extract the update using the file here
3.Now copy the following files ( boot.img, recovery.img and system.img ,cust.img ) from the extracted files to the ADB files directory.
4.Now Execute these commands one at a time using the command prompt.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cust cust.img
fastboot reboot
5.Now Perform a Factory Reset if your phone got recovered.
If not then download the stock recovery of your Device and try steps 2,3,4.
Even if it doesn't get succeeded then try this option .
If your device got bootlooped while on Lollipop or Marshmallow then you have one more way to recover .
6.Now download the latest TWRP from here and boot into TWRP recovery if you cant enter TWRP recovery for this version then try the previous TWRP versions like 2.8.7 ,
7.Use the following command to flash the TWRP recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
8.Then download any of the custom ROMs or ask any of the XDA members for TWRP backup for your device and flash them through Recovery.
Then Reboot your Device.
You would most probably recover your device from any of the above methods . I too had the same problem and My device was use less for almost 6 months but after several trial and error methods my device got recovered.

Did you try flashing different variant ROM ie different builds?
Actually I too got the same problem bootlooped on LP but cant flash the LP ROM back so I flashed different Region ROM.
Give a try to TWRP Method It should give you success.
Imp:
Try the previous ROM where you got Bootloop, or the version earlier to it.If it doesn't succeed try the rom which you got initially on your mobile.
PS: If your phone is being detected by your PC you have good chances of recovering your phone.

The good news is that you've got the dirtysanta bootloader installed (that's why it's reporting us996) so you should be able to fix it without using LG UP and having to redo most of the process.
Install twrp by doing fastboot flash path/to/twrp.img .then pull the battery when done. Then enter twrp by using to volume key method (hold volume down, press power until the screen turns on, then tap power repeatedly until a menu asking to factory reset appears, say yes (while twrp is installed it won't actually wipe anything).)
Flash a rom (a stock one is here), and magisk.
If you can't use an sdcard to get them accessible to the phone in twrp, in twrp you can go into advanced then sideload and connect to a PC and do adb sideload path/to/rom-or-magisk.zip

to totally back out and bring your phone to totally stock use download mode (from powered off hold volume UP while connecting to the pc). The screen will be still messed up but it will still work on the pc.
Use patched LG UP in partition dl mode to flash everything with a stock h990(ds) kdz.
Once you start using dirtysanta next time (if you decide to try again) be very very careful when using LG UP (easier to just use stock flashabile zip) unless you want to redo the above and flash EVERYTHING back to stock (if you ever flash the aboot partition in LG UP and anything ISN'T stock it will brick you! This mostly applies to partition dl mode since upgrade mode flashes everything, but partition dl mode is the only mode you can even potentially flash things and keep root (but I don't encourage this... its easier and saferto just use zips in TWRP to flash firmware (mostly stock basedrom or so called stock flashible zips tend to also flash all of the firmware except parts needed to keep root. )

But did you use partition dl mode? It alone bypasses the model checks.
Partition dl mode isn't in regular lg up, you need the special patched version I linked (replace the files of your regular lg up with the special version)

Try uppercut then. Use upgrade mode if it works but partition dl mode is missing. Note uppercut asks for lg up version 1.14 . I can't remember what version the patched one is but you may have to reinstall that version instead.
