Root AWS Dell Streak 2.2.2 FRG83G - Streak 5 General

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?

Looking for T-Mobile offical 1.6 update for mytouch

Hello I just received a un-rooted mytouch but it is stuck on 1.5 even though the previous user has been using it on the network for the past few months. Is there somewhere I can download the latest official 1.6 update to flash onto this device?
just one click root it and flash a donut rom. It will only take like 15 minutes, and with everything else that you will be able to do with it, it would definitely be worth it.

I tried these instructions but get an error when attempting to flash. Also the ROM he has linked is only 20mb?
is that link the REAL official t-Mobile Donut 1.6 update?? I dont understand why there are not numerous links and sources to the update, I need the real update cause i am test driving the phone, I wanna root it and try it thaqt way, but eventually in a few days im gonna have to give it back to my buddy, he already was buggin about my rooting it, i mean i guess if decide to buy it thats one thing, but i would like to bring it back to Official 1.6 status if not
Its weird usually when anykind of firmware or operating system is releaseed everyone has tons of dwnload links and various sources to get it, but i mean its weird i can only find that one link thats posted above?? I see there is a stock build here in XDA, but says a few tweaks but generally stock, im curious if I need to have the phone rooted to even install that ROM?? this ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549755

my X10a isnt updated to latest build number?

hello
from what i have been reading build number should be R2BA026.
mine is still R2BA023, is this normal?
i have ran SEUS, and the "software update" on my phone and they all show its updated
Are you branded or unbranded

Yes its normak if you have a brandet version. That means your carrier need to send out the firmware to seus. They maybe just eaitet fir the android 2.1 update. Instead of rolling 26 aswell

mate, u will either need to debrand completely, or flash your phone with a different ROM
(or is that basically the same thing !) i flashed my optus branded x10 with global generic (i think its UK or Nordic) and all is good.
another benefit of this is that u wont have to wait for Helstra to get their finger out and have a 2.1 branded ROM for you. if you have a generic rom, then you get the 2.1 update as soon as its available (via seus obviously)
cheers, tim
edit: when you run SEUS - it checks what version you have (telstra) and then looks in the dB for the latest telstra rom available. telstra have only published/released up to the version you are running, therefore "no updates available". If you were running a generic version, when you connected up to SEUS it would be looking for a different version. hope that is a bit clearer
if i completly debrand it, and something happens to it, can i just brand it again and send it back, kinda like. rooting then un-rooting ect
?

right, im gunna want a bit of confirmation from others here....been a while since i did this.
using Bin4ry's post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=711907 i grabbed the latest files from the fileshare websites listed. basically the files that Bin4ry and the other guys have created are a script (batch files) that prompt you step by step. i know the method is called ROOT but its the same process. To ROOT in this original method, you had to flash back to an older revision of the firmware and then update. When you flash back to the older version, it is a generic version. Then you can simply use SEUS to update to newest. KEEP IN MIND that doing ANY kind of firmware update will completely erase anything on the internal memory. This is NOT the sd card, so pics and such will be ok but contacts - msgs - settings will all be gone. might be best to do the one-press root, install titanium backup first and then backup your phone book and other important apps that you may have.
main thing is to ask questions. there are sh!tloads of ppl on here with heaps of knowledge. be safe in the knowledge that you cannot, CANNOT completely screw your phone. you can always flash another firmware back onto it using SEUS. once ppl hack the bootloader, this will be a different story but until then just get in there and have a go
good luck and happy modding!!

main reason that you would root first is so you can use titanium backup to backup your apps and settings. You will still need to flash to a non branded firmware, jerplea has a few ROMS on his posts, probably best to have a look in those threads and ask the masters
i am by no means an expert, i just fumbled my way through it

when you say wont work....what do you mean? When running the flash tool are you following the prompts on screen? you need to have USB Debugging enabled on the Settings=>Applications=>Development enabled. let me kow where it is failing and we might be able to get it working for ya....if you are still keen anyway
just been reading through the original post from Bin4ry again (the flashing/rooting one)....i think that you should post on it exactly where the problems are, where it is failing and what you are doing. There are several active users on there that are very knowlegable on flashing

i turn my phone off, hold down back, plug it in. and the green light lights up ( as it says in the read me ), i start X10flash.bat, and then it says C:/andrew/downloads/X10flash.jav -jav. ( or something like that ) is not a valid internal or external command, press enter to exit

it sounds like a java problem actually.....do you have java installed?
what OS are you on? if its Win7 64bit (or Vista 64bit), there is a 64bit java fix that you need to run also. have a look at this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=713457
if you are on a 32bit machine then chances are its a deviceID issue but from what you have posted above - it looks like the java problem.

1.6 build 7921

Just picked up the dell streak from Rogers ... and going to upgrade to dj steve's build 1.3. Before I even attempt to do this I am trying to find info. on how to backup the stock recovery.
I can not find any information on how to backup the stock recovery... I have not seen the stock recovery for download with this build 1.6 build 7921 either.
I would like to do this just incase I have to put the phone back to stock to return the device... so if some one can point me in the right direction that would be great.
I thought fastboot would help me in my quest to backup the stock recovery but nothing that I can see would do such a thing.
The other thing is I have not seen 1.6 build 7921 stock rom either so I would assume that I need to install clockwork recovery and backup my rom using nandroid?
I believe these are the only 2 things I need if something messes up and I need to return the phone back to stock?
Thanks,
chunkd

BUMP ~ in the same boat here, want to be able to downgrade back to 1.6 and upgrade with the ota update when it becomes available. Anyone?
same boat..
i cant get the build 7921 to the O2 build either
I am on rogers. no problems doing it. it took a while for me to figure it out. basically you have to go to o2 1.6 then up to 2.1.. then 2.2.
I have also successfully downgraded back to 1.6 (when i was on 2.1). But there is no reason to ever want to run an official dell build when steve's builds are so much better.

how did you get onto O2 1.6? any guide that will work from 7921? thanks
I followed one of the guides on here. you should find a 1.6 US to 1.6 O2 guide somewhere. The thing that screwed me up was getting the right drivers for windows. that was a biggie. took me a few hours of reading to finally figure it out.
http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-dell-streak-android-1-6-with-online-kitchen/
this might help. i cooked my own custom 1.6 rom before upgrading to 2.1. I had a problem with the flashing buttons because i had my baseband mixed up. so downgrading back to 1.6 with a custom firmware fixed it. then i updated to 2.1.
then i flashed this:
http://android.modaco.com/content/d...r-the-dell-streak-android-2-1-online-kitchen/
read through the thread. for both flashes you require a specific recovery utility. and the corresponding baseband. And some knowledge of fastboot and installing a custom recovery menu.
There is a bit of a learning curve but once you set it up flashing new updates is a 5 minute procedure.
I wish i can sort out all of the exact files used but i downloaded so many different ones trying to get my streak going and i am now unsure of the exact files used. It just took me a lot of trial and error. Also got stuck in the boot loop a few times...
there is lots of threads on here. i suggest you do lots of reading. it took me a good solid 12 hours of playing around to finally get it going. mind you i am completely new to android phones and flashing... Believe me i was frustrated quite a few times thinking i bricked my phone. But be patient and do lots of reading.
sorry i can't help anymore then that.

Dell Streak Froyo 2.2.2 Build 341 How To For All!

Screw 318, 319, 339 (rogers), 340 (att) 2.2 roms...
With many hours wasted trying everything, I have finally gotten 2.2.2 AWS version to load properly on my Unlocked US Red Streak preloaded with 2.2 315...
here are the steps from any version..
1. Use QDL tool to go to 305 baseband 00. Get from steakdroid.com
2. Use 309 boot loaded located here http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/323792/309-recovery-image/
3. Download and rename Package 322 from dell to Update.pkg to your sd card. Download here http://mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_322_12947_11.pkg
3a. Reboot and hold both volume buttons and go to software upgrade. Upgrade to 322.
4. once loaded, go to this thread and follow directions and download the img files from Broken. Make sure to follow the MD5 guide in subsequent links to get the MD5 to work properly. (this is something good to learn either way )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970177
5. After copying the files in the right place on your sd card, reboot and with fastboot, load clockwork or streakmod recovery.. Streakmod folder is /sdcard/rom_backup/......
6. Go to nandroid and do a full restore, with streakmod you will get an error after system loads, don't worry, just reboot.
If all goes well you will be on baseband 11 (eu unlocked) and running build 341.
I can confirm with this baseband you do not have the flashing led lights like you have with baseband 318.
So glad I gave this one last try before giving up.
Methods to insanity that didn't work
-load 309 to 341 no dice
-load djsteve to 341 flashing leds
-load 318 to 341, flashing leds
- not to mention the hours wasted trying to get the nandroid restore to work with single files...
if you have any questions or problems, let me know. I will try and pop in once or twice a day...
Special thanks goes to..
Broken - for supplying the rom and trying to assist with help.

Krad, thank you for this information. Looks like you are using your Streak in US w/ ATT.
Have you thought about using the ATT official froyo build baseband (34031) instead of the HK's baseband 322? It is too late where I am now, I will re-read the other thread you linked and try the 34031 (ATT) baseband... Will report back.
Alright it's like 3am. I have successfully installed 305 using the QDL tool wich took a bit because of the issues with win7 64bit. At this point I think I understand how to get back to 1.6, and/or move forward to the eu version of 341. Sucks there isn't just a straight download for the 341 US update zip/pkg.
Oh well, will finish sorting this tomorrow. Night folks, or morning
You do not need to go to 1.6
you start from 2.2 305 qdl tool...
From there you load the 309 bootloader via fastboot
and then simply the default way of going to 322 via software upgrade.

A very special person is updating the dell streak wiki and on it it displays all versions of OS's and more importantly basebands... 00 for unlock us 11 for eu unlock, 31 for att.. etc
I had baseband 318_00 loaded and when I went to load this OS I got the flashing Led lights.. Everything worked, but it was annoying. After speaking to a few from Optus Aus. It dawned on me that they must be on a different baseband. I checked 322, which is unlocked for 00.. but it actually loads 11 baseband. Once i fired it up it worked great.
My guess is that you need a specific baseband to run the rom without the flashing led lights. We know this is an unlocked rom, but specifically for EU basebands... With that being said I don't think loading US ATT baseband from 340 will work. But it it worth a shot.
I have been on baseband 322, and have had zero issues with reception, etc... others have pointed out there wifi has better speeds.
I will be testing out the wifi hot spot today and gps to see how they go and report back.
I liked 322 and have almost zero problem too. It is definitely fast w/ 322. The only problem I have with it was it wont auto connect to ATT wifi hotspot. I cant even manual connect to the ATT wifi hotspot which is supposed to be free for us ATT user.
I will try the 340 now and report back. If it doesnt work, I will use the 322

Now that you mention it, YES... I do have that problem.
BTW, I am following this direction on Modaco to goto ATT 340 from any Froyo 2.2: http://android.modaco.com/content/d...3120/guide-from-any-official-2-2-to-2-2-at-t/
Which is so much faster and save me from having to downgrade to O2 2.1 -> O2 1.6 -> ATT 1.6 Then ATT 2.2.

From the initial report, I think I have that capacitive button flashing: I am on Baseband - GAUSB1A134031-US w/ OEM - GAUSB1A134100 and best of all ANDROID 2.2.2
Thank you guys!! Krad, Broken, Themanii and homer4evr
ps. Just saw a post on "Root AWS Dell Streak 2.2.2 FRG83G" by 3GBeyotch, Post #84 that looks to provide a shortcut from 322 to 341 using fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970177&page=9
Krad, any chance you have the baseband (filename - amss.mbn) for Stock 322 handy? I think you can find it in the update.pkg.dec file after running the Dell Recovery to update 322.
Thanks.
So I don't need to go to 1.6 to get to the official US AT&T build with the correct baseband?
I have easily installed 340 and Streakdroid 1.8.1 via Streakmod and the images. Seems like it's strange that it's so hard to get back to 1.6 so I can get to US 341.
Take no offense but I really wish Dell had taken care of the US before the rest of the world was ever introduced to the Streak.
Yes I am an American pig-dog.

I am a little confused by your statement. This is what I know...
Stock 340 that you had is the Official US ATT froyo 2.2 and it has the correct baseband 340 for ATT along with it.
The 341 (only android 2.2.2 that I know for Dell Streak) is an unlocked version (someone mentioned that it may even be beta) and I believed is meant for T-Mobile from some posted info??
So, 341 is not the official US ATT froyo. Based on Krad's testing, I doubt you can even go from ATT official 1.6 to this 341...
Hope this make sense.
Looks like it is I who is confused.
I had the blinking lights with my version of 340. So did that mean it was the wrong baseband?
Yes I have a lot to learn about this here stuff.

Yes... the only baseband that worked for me without blinking lights was baseband 11.. which is "unlocked eu" baseband. 00 is "unlocked us".
I have been running this bad boy for about 24 hour and haven't made a dent in the battery. Been running rock solid with zero issues.
yes you must factory reset to get rid of broken's info. I believe he forgot to do that before he made his images.. but it is cool.. no worries....
tell me where to find the 322 baseband files and they are yours... I have not cleaned out my sd card or root... so the files should be there...
technically, if we can extract the 322 baseband.. you would just flash that with fastboot.. and then load the nandroid restore all and viola.. your duh duh done!
Krad, I got it already. 3GBeyotch extract that for me on the other 341 thread.
Just FYI, you can find it easily in the update.pkg.dec file <- usually show up after you did an update thru Dell Recovery in your root sd card.
BTW, are you able to use the online kitchen (http://uot.dakra.lt/) & framework-res.apk to cook the notification bar for 341?
Havent tried yet but i dont see why not. Maybe i make one tonight... i have some honeycomb graphics lying around from some captivate themes.

New Retail rom: 360

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!
360 rom
Please tell me this doesn't have oovoo crapware loaded
does it have FM radio software by any chance?

The best way is to copy it on sdcard and flash.. as its for sure the battery would be same as 351 crap fast draining
Can it be installed via the standard Dell recovery? Does it include a new baseband?

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

Some of us have other things to attend to, than Googling ourselves through the day.
Anyway....a small bow in your direction too then....is that ok with Master Farts?

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.
