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!

Well, hopefully don't get yelled at but at a dead end. Have tried superoneclick, universal androot, and z4root. None work. Don't want to brick this so have not tried flashing a superboot.
Any thoughts?

I have the same aws streak came with the 2.2 build 333 or wherever you want to call it. I was able to use superoneclick, I had usb debuging on, and its the newest version of super. "But" I had to install the drivers off the dell website or it wont work. to be safe I downloaded all of them for the streak and installed them.
That might be your problem.
My build is slightly newer. gausb1a134100
Will try drivers at dell. I used the ones on the sdcard.
Update:
Tried drivers on Dell website and same thing. Fails.

Hi, I'm doing research on all the firmware versions, could you post your baseband version?

Woot, finally got it. Realized the psneuter didn't work and had been trying the rage one after.
Tried it during boot with rage and that did it.
Thanks!
If you could do one more favor: could you hit the system update button in settings and post the URL it gives you? you dont need to update if you dont want, but the URL would be really helpful. I've almost got all the data I can on the aws version.

Im running streakdroid, it just tells me that I have a update for that. A few weeks ago (maybe two) I tried it and it told me I was up to date.
But now Im wondering if there is one waiting for me I might do a restore to stock and check
Awww
The issue is what would you restore stock to? If you go back to 318/319/339/340 they wont give you an update to 341. (Im not even sure if 333 can be updated to 341 since no other 3xx -> 3xx update is given for stock streaks)
There's bound to be at least a 3rd aws version (either donut or ecliar that i dont know about)
Dont bother updating your streak if you just want 341, from what i know it shouldnt work.
Mine came with 333. I sure it was upgraded to that by the seller. But I would like to know what the difference is with 341.
Externally there shouldnt be any real difference, except that 341 is Android 2.2.2 and all other 3xx builds are Android 2.2
Ok restored to stock 333. Tried update said I was good. Here's the link. http://mobileupdate.dell.com/LandingPages/Streak/Retail/uptodate/en/index.html still only 2.2.1. That sucks I want 2.2.2
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Oh you still have a copy of 333? Would it be possible for you to upload it? Its not available on the dell servers (at least not with all the other versions)
I have no Idea how to do that. I get all you would need is the rom backup file but where and how to put I have no clue.
Also I never did a backup before I set the phone up so I would have to revert back to my stock backup, do a factory reset than nandroid. I just dont want to post all my personal info from my rom dump.(gmail.passwords.....)
Side note: when I did the update check the url that first came up was diff. from the one I copied. The url that first came up had 333 somewhere in it.I do rember seeing it for a split second.
I took this off the dell website (http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_318_12821_00.pkg ) and have been playing around with the #'s one would think that by changing the 318 & 12821 you could find the other builds but I tried 341 & build #'s (_341_14***)and I got nothing. Anything else I could try
did it look like http://mobileupdate.dell.com/?version=GAUSB1A33300 ?
I've been systematically working my way though them looking for updates. The only lastest pkgs I'm missing are the two AWS ones (333,341) and the starhub branded ones (320).
If you did have a nandroid dump of 333 just dont upload the userdata.img (this is true of nandroid in general, all your data is in userdata, the other imgs are the systemdata that only has the android files)
If it is a hassle you dont have to go though the work, what I really want is the original pkg, pkg.dec and the recovery image anyway. (that's why I asked for the update url so I could grab them myself)
If you wanna see my progress, I put everything on the wiki: link
That's a lot of info! I do think it looked like that link but I wasn't really looking I just happened to see the numbers than nothing. Where would I upload the files? Never had to upload just download.
Dropbox/filefront/rapidshare/smoke signals if you're not sure you've removed your personal data, you could password it and pm me a link.
so what you are saying is there is a version of 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 floating around for the streak?
has anyone been able to try these on the unlocked streaks preloaded with 2.2?
Just ordered my first streak, will be here tomorrow, its an unlocked version, i use at&t. Im assuming since its new its going to be a newer version? maybe 351 but i will have to check when its here. A few things i want to root but whats the highest version oneclick is know to work on? Also i read this thread about a 2.2 performance tweak and wish there was something for the newer versions...

Read the last sentence in the first paragraph:
This specific exploit may work on various Froyo and Honeycomb versions as well.
Ah gotcha my bad didnt really look into that second link much...
I have a stock 347 on my unlocked streak ($200 recent deal), and I really didn't like 351. I went back to 347 now since I don't use dell stage anyways. So if I were you, unless you want to use dell stage home screen, I wouldn't try to upgrade to 351. I use Launcher Pro homescreen by the way.
Rooting is good because there are some apps that needs root permission. If you want to go with Superclick, v1.6 worked for me on 347. First, run superclick select rollthecageexploit, and click root. Next, have debug mode enabled on streak. Then power off streak, and connect USB. Then power on, and superclick will detect the device and start rooting.
Obviously, GingerBreak 1.10 is the easiest way to root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1049627
looks like i have 347, 00
ok well i tried gingerbreak 1.2 and it rebooted so i figured it worked and tried a few things and it said i didnt have root permissions, when i tried to remove some of the dell apps i couldnt?
I tried oneclick 1.7 on my vista laptop and get hung up at waiting for device everytime even when i run as admin?
So what now

so it looked like maybe gingerbreak worked i have super user and have tried a few apps that require permissions, setcpu, auto killer, titanium and they all have root permissions but i cant seem to delete to apps that came loaded from dell? any thoughts
Just a few things to know make sure you have a backup. Get a app called root uninstaller from the market its free it will list all your apps and then you can delete the ones you dont want BUT make a backup in case you delete something important.

So the streak has been launched into china some time this past summer.
Rom: 360
Build: 17397
Region: China
Region: Retail
Stage UI 1.6
Dated: May 31, 2011
From usual update timelines the earliest it could have launched was approximately mid-late june
Since the streak 10 was launched in august it could likely be the month immediately before to build up hype or something
I cannot say much about the details of the rom itself, as I dont have a good dump, only a modified dump.
It seems to be 351-like but possibly customized.
If I had a clean dump, or even better a pkg i can do a proper build analysis
I have a copy of the pkg now: It is basically an updated version of 351
There are no new bundled apps, only updated ones
Stage UI has been updated to a slightly newer version of 1.6
Still 2.2.2
I am not sure if It is recommendable over 351 as it's not available on the OTA server, but here it is installable in the usual way:
mirror2.streakdroid.com/manii/Streak_360_17397_00.pkg
More info please!

I have installed the 360th. Looks absolutely similar to 351 (including all applications and languages; it`s not a chinese version).
- the Quadrant score is 775
- OOVOO doesn`t start automatically
- GingerBreak 1.2 installed, but no SuperUser and no root !!!
- SuperOne Click also doesn`t help with root
(reminder) before returning to 351, it`s necessary to downgrade the recovery version.
my dell streak is the second phone for me and i use it for internet and multimedia; in standby 3-4 days, for music/movies or internet nonstop around 14-16 hours, depends ...
i think i will stay on original 2.2.2
Confirmed working fine. Can't notice any big differences
to the 351 version. But the nagging oovooo crap isn't
autostarting anymore, as someone else mentioned.
Anyway, hats off to the great Manii, for this find!

I root in the time honored tradition of yore:
0. Install Dell drivers for PC.
1. Install Streakmod Recovery (for ease of use, Multirecovery Flasher works wonders here).
2. Update from zip and select Superuser.zip.
I've oversimplified this. Manii has a how-to in the development forum, and Radimus' Guide to Rooting the Streak is a must. But, this route should work without fail, whereas the one-click root methods don't always work.
Now...I have to debate whether I want to go the route of upgrading to this ROM and having to install everything again or sticking with 351.
If you're on a 351 stock, you can likely click the pkg link with the built in browser and it'll ask you to update in place. This only works though if the rom can normally update to it (ie regions match correctly)
Basically that means updating without touching/wiping your data.
At least I think this works, I've heard it a few times but I never bothered trying as I have no reason to as I always wipe data when installing a new rom (for testing/hacking)
There should be no difficulty regarding the region, as this Streak had 347 on it when I received it.
I've never heard of using the browser to begin the update before, which is why I thought I was going to have to reinstall everything.
I believe that the package installer utility included in stock roms is what does it. It marks itself as able to run pkgs files and will prompt you if you try to run an update pkg. (same way gallery can run jpgs/pngs/etc)
Clicking the download link is the simplest way of running a pkg, you could also try using a file explorer and selecting the pkg
Assuming this works, you of course need the correct stock recovery installed, basically any 00 region one in the case of 360

Has anyone tried this method to update over 351?
I'm interested to see if this would be a painless update over the previous retail ROM.
I tried it. The download from the link Manii put up in this thread returned an error of "Download unsuccessful: Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone." I believe the fact I am rooted is playing a huge part in this since I know I can update the ROM using the stock recovery.
If there are no major changes between 351 and 360, I'll stay with 351. I strip out most of the bloatware and Stage UI anyway.
Look, I've tried and tried. I don't get it. I think my Atrix 4G bootloader is unlocked, i have SU installed, ROM manager, Titanium Backup works... but i can't get CWM to back up or to flash a ROM. I try and do a backup with CWM or flash a rom and i always get the Android with exclamation mark. I give up. You people are smarter than me. The forums are a MAZE. Half the links for various files and instructions don't even work anymore. What will it take to get someone to get me what i want!?!?!?
Please don't give me a link and say "go here" or "try this", because i've clicked on 100's of those type links and the instructions either do not make sense to my pee size brain or are incomplete or inaccurate.
Give me a fair price. I'll Paypal you the money - if it works (yeah, you'll have to trust me, tough).

I can help you but you do know that ICS isnt very stable yet and if ur not good with this kind of stuff shouldnt do it yet. But the ICS/JB without HW acceleration and working video recording and webtop work good. But if you still want to do it let me know ill help and let me know which ROM you want
@OP - OK for starters let's check to see if your bootloader is unlocked.
Turn off your phone and power it back up. Does it say "unlocked" in the top left hand corner? If so it's unlocked. It could still be technically unlocked without saying unlocked, but you would have had to flash a fruitcake to cover it up, and you probably would have known if you flashed a fruitcake already.
If you do feel brave, there are videos on YouTube showing how to unlock the bootloader (if you still need to) and also how to install CM7.
Unless you have the patience in dealing with bugs, IMHO you are better off "right now" using CM7 over ICS.
Just my opinion and best of luck...

No that's actually true. Surely it isn't that easy to fake? I've been too big of chicken to try anything until the ICS update got cancelled, but I'm often checking in and trying to see what might be going on related to my phone.

Sorry for the delay... apparently noobs have to wait 5 minutes between posts.
My phone does not say unlocked when booting... but I thought SuperUser or ROM manager or Titanium told me I was unlocked at one point? I'm sooo far lost I don't really care. I just want to get where I can flash ROMs with CWM as easily as it appears to be.
I'd like to learn enough to be able to revert back to GB in the event the upgrade isn't for me. Or hopefully someone would help me go back if needed. Maybe I'm just believing what I see on the internet but I was interested in the recently "leaked" version of ICS...? Are you laughing at me write now? Whatever would be the most stable and/or have the most functionality is probably what i want. I'm really hoping to enjoy new software enough to inspire me to keep the phone until I see a new phone I have to have!

Well we can get leaked ICS on your phone but its battery life isnt great and some other bugs. Also when did you get your phone is it AT&T phone bought in US? Because newer Atrix cant be unlocked And it might brick our phone and you wont be able to do anything about it.
The question Stands above:
Do u need the camcorder?
Do u use a webtop?
When u answere one of these questions with yes, u should use a Stock based Rom or cm7; else i would prefer pinters jb.

Give us your build number
Yeah before you start anywhere, we need your build number.
Settings > About Phone > Build Number
The steps to unlock your phone will be based of that.
Actually just list all the settings in your phone. It'll be easier.

Bought the phone in 2/25/11 (per mint.com history). System: 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US
Android: 2.3.6
Baseband: N_01.77.37P
Webtop: WT-1.2.0-110-OLY-6
Kernal: 2.6.32.9
Build: 4.5.141
I'm not overly concerned about video recording, i don't use webtop. Again, I was hoping if i didn't like ICS/JB I could try the CM7 or whatever else I wanted? No?
Was it something I said...?
The steps in the thread below worked BEAUTIFULLY for me. Just check whether you've got a 32 or 64-bit version of Windows so you can download the correct drivers for RSDLite. Once you get the bootloader unlocked and a proper recovery partition on there, it's all downhill. Two weeks ago, I was a complete n00b and now I can flash ROMs onto my Atrix in my sleep. For the first time last night, I even flashed a ROM without connecting to my computer, but rather just by downloading the newest AOKP package from GooManager, copying it to the SD Card, then doing a dirty install via Recovery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423
There's also an awesome YouTube video showing how to flash MIUI onto your Atrix, but you can use it for any ROM you like.
(Caution: Like everyone else here, I assume no responsibility if something screws up and your expensive phone turns into a paperweight. As my Atrix is roughly the same vintage as yours, I seriously do not believe that will happen, but everything here is of course at your own risk.)

Unfortunately i've tried this site. I get lost once i get to #2 and it tells me to "go here" and download things, because it says things like "if you're 64 bit you'll need the OTHER link". What other link? And then it says "Do this UNLESS you're on ATT." I am on ATT WTF do i do? Also when i do try to install some drivers off of one of the random links my computer says I have more up to date drivers already installed. Ahhh the short falls of the internet.

You can get the appropriate version of RSDLite and drivers (32 or 64-bit) from here:

After that, it's just downloading the unlocker that says "ATT ONLY" at this link:

I sent you a PM.
Use the instruction in this link http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Atrix_4G:_Full_Update_Guide... Everything works there.
And it's better to make a donation to XDA Developers projects to release a stable ICS/JB version
Wow, thats why i still like to come to this community and check whats going on around, even though i don't the phone anymore. OP started a thread, thats been asked tons of times, and no one have flamed him yet, on the contrary, everyone is trying to help him. If he would do this on the GS2 i777 general section, he would have got flamed and the thread would have gone totally offtopic about jokes and stuff like that.
Great community guys! Keep the Atrix forums like this!
PS: Sorry for the offtopic.
Same Atrix as mine
OK it looks like you have the same Atrix as mine.
I used this:

Basically it's a one step process for installing root and unlocking your phone. Unfortunately, it also comes with an outdated CWM.
So once you are done follow these instructions:

That should be it. Good luck.
