I also have a streak which started life with the EU 6267 and I sm now on the 12332 build. I wss previusly on the 11548. The best way is to go back to 1.6 4399, then back to 6267. This I belueve is the only way. Follow tjis link on your pc. Because it does not work on the 2.2 ;-)

And when you finally get to the step where you are attempting to install the 6267 package you will need to make sure you use the attached recovery image. Otherwise you get the FOTA mismatch problem. Let me know if you need more help.

While the rest of you guys have been tinkering and hacking your Dell Streaks for quite a few months now, those of us in Canada have only just started getting our Dell Streaks through the Rogers network.
Unfortunately Dell is shipping these Streaks with the Baseband numbered as 7921 - and very little, and in some cases, zero tutorials or information is available on doing anything with this Baseband.
Having come from an HTC Desire that has been ridiculously easy to root and modify, I am pleading, almost begging for the Dell Streak community here on XDA to help out with any solid clues and/or tips to working with 7921.
Even the Superboot method doesn't have any files available for 7921. As of now, I can't root this thing unless I just take a blind chance with some other Baseband's superboot method.
Having read some other forum posts, both here and on MoDaCo ( and believe me, I have used the search feature to go through every related post possible ) - I know that there are a few people out there who have managed to root 7921 and even upgrade, but nobody has posted a single solid tutorial.
Please?
A few tips, some guidance, maybe a tutorial?
Pretty please?
Anyone?
Im in this boat. Ive tried everything i cannot get this thing to upload a update.pkg i can flash recoveries no problem, nothing seems to work i have tried going to o2 1.6 will not flash o2 2.1 nothing. mostly i get the status 7 error while its trying to flash assert failed /tmp/boot.img
I rooted with universal androot.
actually does anyone have the "original" recovery that came with a 7921 device?
Can you try using this : mobileupdate.dell.com/PackageProductionLocations/Streak_318_12821_00.pkg
smoku on #dellstreak – freenode on IRC suggested it. This should also flash the AMSS and I'm presuming that it will change your baseband to 00. That should open up the possibility of updating to Dell 2.2 or Steve's ROM.
But I can't confirm this until you try it first.. let me know please?
Well I still have a Virgin 7921 phone, if I can figure out how to extract the recovery image. I've never done that before..
I bought mine a few weeks ago and I followed a couple of tutorials in this forum and the modaco forum as well... I was able to change my baseband to 00 and after that update to stock 2.2 .... now I'm running the 318 build and i'm very happy with it....
Just search for the guide to downgrade to baseband 00 is a little tricky but it works... at the end you will have enough experience to move to any build or baseband.

Hi Ivancho,
Is there any chance you could provide us with the exact link to the directions you used? I've read so many different sets of the instructions that I'm confused now. I swear, if I can successfully get 2.2 on this without screwing it up I will write a full blown walk through myself

FOTA Model name mismatch, rebooting in 30 seconds.
got that while trying to flash the above.
Dammit. Sorry. Was hoping that would work. Kind of getting demoralized with this now.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!do this. i just finished and now am at build 6601! This works!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805112
scroll down till u get to where it says
if you just wanted to revert to O2 1.6 (build 4399) then you are done. If you are going to AT&T 1.6 (build 6601) we have to change the system so it will upgrade the the AT&T ROM.

He guys,
I need some help on this one. I'm still not getting the FroYo update (or the pre-update(2.1-update1).
stock/un-rooted
2.1
non-branded/SIM lock free
I did tried to manually update true the recovery mode, but I'm getting "E:signature verification failed. Installation aborted." messages on every update.zip file(obtained true http://zubu.ca/legend/fota_check.php).
The phone is USB-bricked after a failed custom rom flash.
stock rom, no usb data, no sd card(managed to fix that).
I live in the Netherlands and did see that a lot of other Dutch people got there first and second update(via comments on Androidworld.nl).
Any suggestions are welcome. I'm out of idea's
At this point I'd unbrick and root it... both howtos are in development...
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
To unbrick, it needs to be rooted. to root it needs to have a working usb. So I'm punched in to a tight corner T_T

You are kinda off-topic here
But as far as i know, there is no Arabic/Persian ROM version(yet)
nobody els with an idea???
How about when you try update RUU ROM on a goldcard? Did you try that? Just suggesting...
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you xd
Edit:
DAMNED, got to 2.1-update1 no problem. update 2.2 done and now it keeps rebooting.
Edit2:
Another RUU broke the loop. all is fine now
OK after a reboot it still ends up in a endless boot loop(white screen, htc logo).
Am unable to go into the recovery mode.
Did you do a full wipe? It is usually needed when fiddling around like this...
you most certainly can get to recovery, vol down + power and then recovery? No?
Clear what you can and you'll see...
Fast-bootloader and bootloader are accessible but recovery is not. I get the same boot loop. However If i try to run a RUU it get the phone up to the black screen with htc logo. then RUU comes with a "cant find device" error and quits. the phone then boots normal on its own. USB is still broken btw.
It looks like you got the error at the worst momnent you could while flashing the first RUU... I still think it is possible to flash boot onlyby the legeimg.zip file at the very beginning (you'll notice the green text flashing in few lines) but that is a bit over my head... Maybe someone will know?
If that fails, I'd take my legend for warranty repair and lie through my teeth to have done nothing to the phone
I did try the legeimg.zip thing. but that didn't work. and i wont be having any warranty because i got this phone via a colleague of my dad. just the phone and charger.

This worked for me OP.Restore to 2.1,flash .52 bb and then install your custom ROM.
thats not right. If you want baseband .52 then you must flash Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.A.0.504. If you flash or have Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.2.A.0.24, then you'll have no signal when you apply baseband .52 patch. Therefore in plain English, flash Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.A.0.504, then flash baseband patch .52 and then flash the rom you want.
Hi Guys,
I am really sorry if this is a repeated post,
I am not a expert but can follow instructions very well,
I am using a Dell Streak 5 and it was shipped with 2.2 and i recently upgraded to 2.3.3(Olleh) version and the base band version is 357 and the kernel is 2.6.35.7-perf and i am not liking this version of OS and i want to get back to the original OS which was shipped with the phone.
The phone is rooted as well.
My friend did this for me,I am not sure how he did this.
Can anyone help me step by step on how to get back to factory installed 2.2 version??
That would be a great help for me if anyone can help me with this.
Ok...so your 2.2.2 version was 357, you went to 407 and now you want to go back to 357?
The basic steps to flash a ROM are found in the Dell Streak wiki. There is additional information in the thread titled "Everything you always wanted to know about the Streak but were too busy bricking it" that may be helpful. With those two sources of information there is no need to give you a detailed how-to since it has already been done. The main thing you need to do other than following the directions is download the 357 recovery and the 357 update package from the wiki.
Hi i looked for 357 package and its no available in wiki,
Any idea where i can get them from??
cant i try the lates version??
357 is only available preinstalled on devices, there's no way to return to it as the pkgs are not available for it.
Hi Thank you for replying me back,
Can i install any other package apart from this??
If you want Froyo, flash Streakdroid 1.9.1. You'll find it here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/ROMs

I didn't look at the list of ROMs so I had no clue 357 was a preinstalled ROM. Sorry about that. Use 360 instead. It includes some apps Dell thought might be useful but are also easily removed. What it doesn't have is bloatware forced on it from the cellular service providers.
HI Guys,
Thanks for your valuable replies,
I have fixed the issue,
Let me tell you what i have done so that others can try.
I have initialised fastboot and used flashrecovery 0.8 and used 357 ROM and after the phone rebooted after the flash i HELD THE VOLUME DOWN KEY AND THE POWER BUTTON AND THE PHONE STARTED TO BOOT FINE.

Don't go back to Froyo, go all the way to CM7!
Once you're at 407 rom go the next step and go CM7:

You MUST try out CM7 on the streak. You MUST!
