Hi Mate,
Elaborate bit more on the problem bruv, be more descriptive on the issue.
Its hard to understand what fast boot commands were run.
please provide the stats of the phone :
whats the Baseband
Kernel and OEM VERSION
I mean if it made any changes to that.
If you want you can head to the Streak Wiki page and get links to install the 351 or the latest 354 official roms or if you are bit adventurous then you can try custom roms by DJ Steve's Streak Droids or Spidla's Simple streak.
Just remember to be descriptive with the problems that you are facing and you will get answers...For cryin out loud you are at XDA mayn!!
One thing more if you would like then give a shot to factory reset....might help!!
Cheers
GZsammy

Looks like a number of people are having a similar issue to what happened to my streak. Random crashes and force closures then loss of phone functions and a vicious restart loop.
I tried a bunch of stuff thinking that it was the amss and dsp1 updates I made when moving to Streakdroid that did it. Brought my phone back to stock using the QDL tool and then let it do the official update to the latest AT&T build. IT worked fine for a while then the restart loop showed up again.
Not fun. I got another streak and I won't do anything to it until I figure out how to pull the stock 1.6 6601 build from it. That way I can copy that to my faulty streak to see if that fixes anything.
I read somewhere in this forum, someone's sim also cause the phone to act up.
Try see if you have problems with the phone without the sim.
If it still acts up, it's gonna be hard to trace what's going on since most here have tried alot of ways to fix it.

Yeah.... once i turned it one without sim... and he didn't crash... must be it. I'll test it.
But I want a phone for all sim cards... still have warranty...maybe to complain to provider. But there's a catch i dont Use T-mobile card, where mobile phone is bought. (he wasn't branded and locked)
And another thing... why he didn't do that when i get it few months ago? why now? Everything worked perfect few monts.
Noup, it's not the sim.I put another providers new sim card and take out sim card, and he still keep reseting.
Hmm maybe also try changing the sdcard and see if it still crashes? If changing the sdcard also crash then it could be some hardware fault somewhere.
Or if you don't mind Simplestreak 1.2 rom, you can try the below:
If you have streakmod recovery installed, i have uploaded a fresh installation of simplestreak 1.2 here http://www.multiupload.com/VO4MPI0U0G.
If you have existing rom back up in your sdcard then unzip and copy the folder into the nanodroid backup directory, else create a directory called "rom_backup" and unzip the folder into it.
Once done, boot into the streakmod recovery and go to the nanodroid backup and select the option to restore.
Hopefully this will restore a working new simplestreak 1.2 rom into your streak.

When I woke up this morning my phone prompted me to install the long awaited update to 2.2.1. Now that I've installed the new OS my phone is dreadfully slow! To the point where it's almost unusable. Anyone else experiencing this problem after updating? Any solutions?

There is no longer a Factory Reset option in SD card & storage settings; what is going on with my phone?!!? AHHHHHHH!!!!!!
I called tech support and they told me an alternate way to perform the factory reset. Power Off, Hold Home+Power button for 20 sec, etc. Gonna try that and hopefully my phone will work properly.
Thanks for the help,

Wow. Creative!
Is there anyway to revert back to 1.6, or am I stuck with 2.2.1? I did the factory reset and the phone is running ok, but it ran much better before.
I'm having an issue with the browser.. My phone reboots when I open the browser and try to run a search, or while I'm typing in a website address. However, the phone is stable when I run searches or "go to" websites via the Google widget. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
-Adam
I had exactly the same problem.
I was quite happy with the speed of 1.6. Got the OTA update to 2.2.1 and I have hated the phone since! Rang HTC to see if anything can be done and as usual no returned calls etc.
I ended up rooting it and using setcpu to get it almost back to how it was but it still has its issues.
I would put a custom rom on but I dont want to risk bricking it just yet.
Download this, rename it to update.zip (not update.zip.zip), and put it on the root of your SD card. Boot into recovery, do the factory reset from there, then select apply update.zip from SD card. Let it do it's thing. The problem is that you did the factory reset AFTER installing, doing it before is the way to go. The file is the official update, so you'll just be re-installing it.
@creative, your past the hard part. Just download/install ROM Manager from Market, select "Flash Custom Recovery", reboot into recovery, wipe, and flash whatever ROM you want. Or just do the above to get the 2.2.1 working better.

Do another factory reset and this time let it sit there (DON'T TOUCH IT!) for a solid 10-15 minutes after it gets to the sign-in screen. This is a very slow phone in the first place and there are all sorts of background processes and "thinking" going on the first time you boot up into new software.
I've flashed many roms on my old mt3g and this genuinely makes a huge difference. Try it.
Oh, and did I mention this phone is just slow in the first place? It is, and it has way too little RAM. Why on earth T-mobile gave us the 32B instead of 32A, I will never know...

Your not going to be able to flash the update.zip if your using CM 6.1, the install will just fail. You'll have to return the phone to stock using the stock sappimg, then apply the update. You will lose root, but you can get it right back using SuperOneClick. Nothing should happen to your phone unless something happens while its updating the radio, which is nearly impossible unless you pop the battery out or drop it or something of that sort during the update (same risk you run if you do the update OTA).
I had the same problem. Before I updated, I formatted the SD and wiped everything. I left the phone on the counter over night after flashing. 6 hours later and it was still pretty bad.
I just went back to stock and I'm going to try Gio's themed ota.
Edit: Gio's version is blazing. Just in case anyone was wondering.

Or you could rename the file to sappimg.zip and power the phone off and hold down the Volume Down + Power and press the Action button (which is just pressing the scroll ball) and it will take you phone back to your factory reset. Then you can root and install you ROM as mentioned above.

No you can't. That update depends on the 1.6 build. It's just patching the 1.6 build to 2.2.1, when your loading up a sappimg, it's looking to update all the partitions (e.g. SPL, recovery, radio, system, data, etc.). So, it won't work this way, and in reality, you should just get an error in hboot trying to run this as a sappimg.
Follow the advice on this attachment. My Magic was useless after update. While not perfect now, this helped a lot.

This thread is sad news to me.....I bought a mytouch last week on eBay expecting to do the froyo update to replace my blackberry 9700 that is having all kinds of issues after a few accidental drops. Sounds like I would be better off flashing it with one of the donut faster roms than going to 2.2
The stock rom provides stock performance and does work fine. Just need to wipe and give it time to finish running all the background processes to sync the Google bits.
I will say root and OC to 614 works wonders: I have been going back and forth between the 1.2 and Fender OTA ROM's making tweeks and have a stable, fast and battery effcient phone with both. Makes me wonder if other members coming from a CM rom or others with OC are basing a lot of their sluggish compliants (after the Google sync is done) from running at 528mhz.
Don't give up, just pop the hood and tweak to your liking.
Kind Regards,
Kevin

pretty much the stock rom is evil made my phone choppy even after a full wipe and i let it boot completely i had to root my phone and put a new rom on there i suggest cm6.1 its stable and good for new rom/root users
Edit:yes the mt3g is old and the fastest i ever seen it was on a rom that wasn't OTA (over the air) its from 09 give it a break. a few months left then i can get a new phone with more ram im almost off my contract lol
Hey guys I have a mytouch 4g that has been rooted to 2.3.3 (gingerbread) (I bought it like this) and when I try to go to the camera/camcorder/ or any other camera using application its just a black screen. I don’t know how to fix it, please help thanks!
Try to flash another ROM and see if it works then. I don't know if you are familiar on how to do that, but in the Mytouch 4G android development section there are plenty of ROMs to choose from with instructions. Make sure you make a back up. I suggest royalginger 2.1
thanks for the response,
i actually dont know how to change the ROM, does that mean changing from gingerbread? thanks for your help,
Nope, there are plenty of roms that are gingerbread. The link I am posting is the resource bible located in the development forum. It has basically everything you need to know. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866175
I suggest you go to the android market, look up rom manager, an download it. Also go to cynogenmods website an find the mytouch 4g, go to the wiki part of it. It well show you there how to download an install a new rom.if you still need help send me a private message, cause I change roms bout once every few days.

Since his phone is already rooted with a custom rom, I am willing to bet he has ROM Manager on his phone...
thanks guys i am a little confused, but yeah it does have a rom manager but im not sure how to use it, its my first android and i didnt know it was rooted when i bought it lol
i might be asking for too much, but can anyone break it down for a 1st timer, i just want a stable phone with the camera to work lol
Make sure you have recovery installed,rom manager can install it. Its the very top in the app.Open rom manager,select download rom,pice the rom you want.make sure you also download gapps(google apps). Wait for it to download. Once it downloads rom manager will ask you,to wipe cache,dalvik,an back up rom. Do all three of them. Select ok. You should now reboot into recovery,use your track pad,to find install zip,select that then find choose zip,from sd card. Look for either rom manager or cynogenmod(not,sure which it is). Find the rom you downloaded,select it. Itll ask you if you want to install,select yes. Then repeat the process in,recovery to install a rom,for gapps. One you done that,hit the back button an,reboot your phone.

Hey, guys i finally got a new ROM! but the bad news is that the camera still doesnt work? any other suggestions.... the weird thing is that the camera has worked before, and then it goes black again
I think the camera on that phone, is probably messed up. Maybe a bad connection.
Sent from an android,thats makes steve jobs jelous.
Hopes this works for you.
Ive been having the same prob for months. Then tonight I did something unusual. I called T-mobile to see if they had a solution, and by golly it worked! The tech mentioned that the black screen may be due to an issue with the sd card. She said that if I used to much memory, the camera will not allow anymore videos and pics to be taken(why it doesnt just flash a note that says memory overload or something, IDK) So she said to remove the sd card and reboot and try to access the camera. If the phone allows you to do that then there is an issue with the card. Remove all saved data to another device and reboot.
I actually did it a little different. I remembered that the last time it worked, I was at a concert and took several videos, so I was hoping I had just used to much memory. So before rebooting I simply deleted all the videos from that concert(you can dump files on another device).Then I tried to start my cam, got the black screen. So I powered the phone down, removed the SD card and battery, reinserted the battery sans the SD card and rebooted phone. Activated the cam, still got a black screen. Powered down again, re-inserted the SD card, and rebooted. Started the camera and......it worked.
No more black screen!
Last night I installed Gingerbread 2.3.1 on my HTC HD2.. Followed the directions exactly and was able to boot Android and customize and had no problems. Tonight, suddenly my buttons at the bottom (home button, start menu, back, etc) started flashing -- side note: if anyone knows why this happens and how that can be stopped please let me know!! --, I figured I would just restart my phone. Well, when I restarted, suddenly I had no service when I booted Android.
I have rebooted my phone in the different methods (reboot, recovery, and bootloader), tried powering it off and then turning it back on, tried putting it on airplane mode (dunno why) and then back off, took out the battery and sim and waited for 20 min and then put it back in... Nothing has had any luck.
When I boot Windows Mobile, I have a phone signal, but for some reason when I'm booting Android, it isn't there.
Anyone else have a similar problem or can suggest how to fix this? I really want to be able to continue using Android but that's not going to happen if it continues to have this problem...
Flash official windows again, then try NAND Gingerbread 2.3.4 Its great ROM and all works.

try a different rom, the flashing buttons was common on early builds of gingerbread
i take it you are using an sd version rather than nand ?
Try switching to 2G only and see if your signal is back.

Yes, I'm using SD version... To be honest, I didn't really know the difference, but from what I was told NAND basically erases Windows, right? If that's correct, I was afraid of the installation not going right and being stuck without a working phone.

I tried going to my settings to switch to 2G, but at first it was greyed out, so I couldn't even select it. Then I clicked Access Point Networks and went back and suddenly it was available to be clicked. I clicked it and went to another screen and for some reason decided to go back to check it and it had been unclicked and greyed out again....
Seems it's a problem related to your rom and not a hardware problem because it works on wm.
Im not familiar with SD roms, maybe you should try a different SD rom or a NAND rom and see if the problem is solved.
Hope u get it sorted !
Since it seems I just need to try a different rom, can anyone suggest a link? I think I want to try SD again just because if I'm having these problems I don't want to completely wipe Windows and not have something to resort back to if I run into something again..

Honestly I don't want to NAND it because I don't want to completely wipe Windows in case I have a problem again... (this is all assuming I understand NAND correctly)... Right now I have a problem so I was able to go back to Windows Mobile. Do you have any suggestions for another SD rom?
Not quite true. You can always go back to Winmo from Android Nand if you are unhappy with it. I used to think the same way but since taking the plunge I've always found it easy to reinstall Winmo in order to use my tomtom navigator
ROM wise there are various fantastic offerings with Android Nand. Some are even spotting the new sense 3. You can try either CoreDroid or LeoRC Mix.
For now head over to the Nand section and read the stickies at the top. There are ample and easy guides on how to prepare your HD2 for a Nand Rom and how you can return to Winmo if you don't like it. If you follow the instructions properly, trust me nothing will go wrong.

Hello, while I was testing 2.3.5 witch was great except that the mobile network was not woorking at all. So I decided that I needed too downgrade. And when I was browsing the phone I accidentally found this way.
This has not been proofed by anyone else I think.
Disclaimer: I do not take the resposibility for your device.
1. Put the dload on the root of SD-card (I used 138sp4)
2. Then go to storage in preferences. Head too the bottom then choose "upgrade SD-card". The phone blacked out, started up and installed 2.2
3. The phone boots up in recovery because of many errors. I choose wipe data/chache and wipe chache and reboot.
4. The phone rebooted and I am back to 2.2.2 from 2.3.5.
This method keeps the start-boot-picture (does not know if the other sulutions keeps it).
Sorry for my bad grammar on some of the words. I just wrote them down and did not have the time to fix them.

I was forced to downgrade from 3.2.5 to 2.2.2 for the exacly same reason and i tryied that same way you did and i couldnt do it, i got a message saying something like "there are no upgrade firmware inside the SD card". So i used the root & replace boot and recovery files to downgrade what was a sucess. Got the same issues as you with the boot but the "wipe data/chache" from recovery resolved it.

Yes its working great but if u have custom rom installed remember to factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik in recovery before downgrade, if u will not do this phone will stay at unpacking screen forever.
I have updated to ICS via OTA.
Now, if i open keypad to dial it first shows grey screen for 2seconds and then the numbers appears... Same with contacts.
I also got couple of times black screen as if phone frooze.
Once, even i got scrambled green images on screen which got corrected by pressing Home button multiple times.
Apart from this, Phone seems to be running fine.
So, how can i myself solve this problem now OR Do i have to go to Samsung service centre and let them reinstall ICS?
PS:
I am using Indian official ICS Baseband Ver. LP4 & Build Number LP8.
I have never rooted and was on Stock GB before the urgrade.
I fear if i try to fix this ICS problem myself i will run into bricking problem.
UPDATE
See post 7 & 13 Below
I had this issue but after i wired data using code *2767*3855# everything worked smoothly.
You can try this at your own risk as it might brick if yor device has emmc bug. I have already done it over 15 times and no issue

I have updated to ICS via OTA.
Now, if i open keypad to dial it first shows grey screen for 2seconds and then the numbers appears... Same with contacts.
I also got couple of times black screen as if phone frooze.
Once, even i got scrambled green images on screen which got corrected by pressing Home button multiple times.
Apart from this, Phone seems to be running fine.
So, how can i myself solve this problem now OR Do i have to go to Samsung service centre and let them reinstall ICS?

I rooted my Note after about two days so not sure if this will work on non-root....
Reboot into recovery (Power+Vol Up + Home) then clear cache and clear Dalvik cache. Reboot then see if lag continues. Clearing caches and reboot seems to get rid of lags and gives phone a new life
Today again phone got frooze on homescreen for 5mins and got back to life again after pressing Home key numerous times
So yes, something is wrong with this ICS update.
Plz provide a solution and also mention if tht solution can lead to bricking bug..
BUMP.
I had exactly the same problems while updating Gb to ICS using OTA update. Anywhow, I never got to fix this. I would try following steps:
Clean the cache of your ICS installations/apps using any Cache-cleaning tool on the Play Store
Reboot your phone like 2-3 times (sometimes this seems to fix some problems with your kernel/rom since they have to settle down.
Update all your apps to their latest versions, since most apps have fixes for ICS installations, and might slow your phone a bit down in some way

When you still would have problems with your ICS installations I would recommend installing a custom rom over your stock ICS installation. This did the trick for me eventually.. But depends on if you would like to have a stock or custom ICS rom.
HELP
I tried the above suggestion and done Factory Format via *2767*3855#.
Now, after entering code the device havent rebooted for the next 15mins, so i pressed the power key to reboot manually and then i got the message format failed or sumthing similar which i dont seem 2 recall.
Now, all my Smemo data & camera images is wiped... but phone numbers and messages intact.
and the originally mentioned problem is still there..... So wht is my solution now ?
I want to delete every old system files & Clean-install ICS - So Is it via kies?
Dont know much abt all this so a detailed help would be highly appreciated.

Flash gingerbread again with odin, then do a factory reset... then upgrade to ics again using odin...
I dont want to go to GB again..... All i want is fresh clean install of ICS on my phone... So how to do tht ? (i dont wana play with my phones warrenty)
You can use pc odin to flash stock ics, not recommended though as you're on ics kernel now. Best to follow previous poster, fladh gb stock kernel first.
please hit thanks if i helped

If i use odin to flag GB first, will i loose my phones warrenty? (And i dont even knw how 2 use it)
Second, can i go 2 samsung service centre and let them delete all old files and install fresh copy of ICS? If i do, will i run a chance of bricking..... Coz i dont want to run into parts replacements and repairs problem...
What is the best solution now.

Since you did nothing wrong that could void your warranty, and you don't know too much about fixing it yourself, save yourself the hassle and let a Service center take cre of it for you .
