Gameloft games keep locking up my streak - Streak 5 General

What options did you use in your install.txt?

Go back and look at the install instructions for 1.8. There are options you can use to get gameloft games working.
Dell Streak powered by Streakdroid 1.8.1

add this to install.txt
volnoppt
then flash 1.8.1
should work fine (does on mine anyway!)

I did add that and it helped with some games but my homerun 3d keeps locking up the phone also. What should I do?

Phone backup

Ok so the OTA 2.2 should be around the month.
I was just wondering is there an android app or program for the pc to back up the current state of my phone such as all apps and preferences so i dont have to start from scratch after the update?

When I tried to update to the unofficial 2.2 (and failed ) titanium backup did the trick. Reloaded all apps with settings, just had to rebuild my screen layouts. Problem is most of the backup programs require root. Accordin to streaksmart.com the "dell insider" was not able to root the official build. Not to say the smart people on these forums wont have that figured out in no time after its released: )

Sorry. Didnt read completely. Don't know of one for the PC...

Dell have said that they will tell you how to back up all your data before applying the update so maybe they have a program they are sending with the update
Theres a free dell backup app on the market now specifically for the streak so problem solved

Dell streak backup and restore app hits android market, exclusively for streak

Its just on the market, search for it... Froyo is very near I think!
If it isn't working the first time ( invalid backup), reboot your phone... Try it again and it will work.

Made by/distributed by Nero? ah well who cares
Nero? We probably can connect external USB-Burner to the Streak and burn our data on DVD *lol*

Awesome find! Hopefully 2.2 is very near!
hope the 2.2 is as slick...... feels like I have been waiting for every for this up date... come on dell
got it
got my streak a week ago, found dell backup in market a few days ago
+2 for froyo release.. I would bet it will be release on the 11th.
thanks - this saved me a heap of time
Where does this program save the backup file to? I don't see it on my SD card
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Its under com.nero.android.dellsync on your sdcard

Nice find, worked great.
Keeps hanging on backing up applications, or when the screen turns off. Running official o2 2.1
Scratch that, rebooted my streak then tried again, works fine.

I'm confused. Two questions.
1. What makes this program a good sign for Froyo's release?
2. What is different about this from the PC suite that I use with 1.6 and came standard with the Streak for backing up the program?

1) it was on Tweeter and on Facebook (dell uk) stating that prior to receiving Froyo, backup using this app.
2) no difference, backs up the same stuff but the difference lies in the fact that this way, you don't need a pc to restore your settings.

345 or 1.8.1 what's better

Ok all input is needed.....do gameloft games actually work right on 345 I'm on 1.8.1 and they all crash. Plus I get a bunch of reboots
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
Why not just try them both and see which works better for you? There are pros and cons for each that really depend on your personal setup and useage
whats the easiest way to get 345 up since im already on 1.8.1
Naked woman are the best
Sent from my Dell Streak
I was unable to come up with a stable configuration using 1.81 and various install.txt's as I always ended up with reboots after a few days so I would recommend 345 over that. ( If anyone has a solid config please let me know )
That said, I am sticking with 318 and the tweak patch as I personally didn't notice a difference between 345 and 318 aside from the Stage UI which I don't use anyway.
I just did this.
Go to the wiki for the dell streak (at the top) and get the following for the 345 build:
Recovery (You will need this flashed with fastboot onto you streak)
PKG (This will need to be on the root of your SD card named update.pkg)
DSP (You need to flash this for video after you install the PKG)
1) Copy the PKG to the root of your SD card
2) Flash the recovery image
3) Reboot your phone holding down the up and down volume and install the new rom
4) wait for reboot
5) Flash the DSP file
Gonna try 1.9 first see how that goes ill let u know when i do that

I think that the choice now is 345 or streakdroid 1.9.0.
I am testing 1.9.0 right now. It is based on the latest official roms so it is Android 2.2.2. I have tested and you can make nandroid backups from 1.9.0 (does not hang at backing up firstboot)

1.9.0 with 240 pixel - for the win!
240 is huge I like smaller like 140 or 120

I'm running 1.9.0 and everything works fine including gameloft....
I used this option....
volnoppt - flashes a kernel without the new kgsl(3d) per page table support AND VOLUME BOOST - fixes some gameloft games
Everything i've tried just works....and damned quick too!
I updated to 1.9.0 and now some market apps don't appear. anyone else have this issue?

Stock Streak 5 NetFlix now working
I have a factory-unlocked, unrooted Froyo Streak..... Last month, I had side-loaded the NetFlix app (version 1.2.something), and it would take me to NetFlix & I could log in, but would not play any videos (player screen would go black for a second then it would immediately take me back to the NetFlix search screen). Yesterday, I finally uninstalled that version and installed the newer version from XDA (version 1.3.x I think it is), and BOOM.... it's working like buttah! Thanks all!!

Ok so I was messing with chainfire 3d and when I use qualcomm plugin and try the app nothing happened then I tried powervr still nothing then I put it on nvidia and I get the opening credits to play with music and pictures just like it would regularly do but when that is over the game freezes and just takes me back to the home screen

i tried it out and i have the same issue where it just gets to opening credits and then screen turns black doesn't load anything.
as i read in the specifications/ requirements its need at least Galaxy S II !
Ya I just figured that since the app appeared in the market it was compatible like how Gameloft games wont show up for us. Now it wont show in the market not even in my paid apps

Since it's new, it's only working on phones/tablets with dualcore processors right now
newb post for dev cred
nothing to see here
Guys new 1.1 release for powervr sgx540 is available!
It's still not compatible with the Vibrant. I haven't messed with chainfire3d yet but I wish they'd get this game going on the Vibrant
Well, people are playin it on Huawei X5 and SE Neo for example, so i guess it should work to us.
I'm just having a problem, since i can't download the game content :S
Already downloaded 21%, but when i try to resume it it always says to me that there is no active internet connection before reaching 30%.
Any ideas? :\ Can it be because of the modem or something?
Currently running Private Stock ROM 2.2.1 with stock kernel/modem.
Help? :S
Mine downloaded right up but even though I bought it I can no longer see it in the market

Try uninstalling and then reinstalling. That seemed to work for me.
But I can no longer see it in the market even though I have it downloaded so I don't know how to update it

Post in the Market app reviews section guys. Get Rockstar to support it. I've posted and left feedback.
