Hi, I just got a dell streak and would like to know which would be the best OS to have on it.
Any advice would be appreciated

Dj steves streakdroid is about your only custom option. Its great but not perfect, I think hes workin around with unknown source codes or something makin it difficult to perfect the monster. You can go stock 2.1 which keeps the ultimately useful bar/app button. 2.2 isnt worth a damn considering streakdroid 1.7.0

Custom roms

Hey guys, ive had my streak for8 months now. I used to have a htc touch jd and I was used to the fact I could change to rom pretty easilly and I was spoilt for choice.
Im currently on official o2 2.2, iwas just wondering if there are any roms which are significantly improved in terms of looks and speed for the streak.and if so is there a good guide that tells me how to install them?
Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Here is a good place to start

I would have to say that I am an avid user of StreakDroid. Sure it has a small bug here or there, but as far as speed you can't go wrong with using StreakDroid with perfmod.

351 could not have come at a better time!

I was this close to giving up on my streak when the 351 update come out... but now my streak functions exactly as a streak should and is here to stay - it's perfect! (0:

That is good news.
Looks like each streak has its own love for a different rom.

I agree 351 is the best stock rom so far. One issue I don't like that has popped up since 345 and newer is the flashing profile pics in text messages and google talk. Other than that it runs great.

351 is great works just as good as 318 for me, but after now updating and having it 4 a week, all I want now is a update to gingerbread haha the grass is always greener as they say!

yeah, 351 is better but i still waiting for gingerbread

my streak broke 1 month ago.so ive send it to repair...took one month..i just got it back and dell changed the mainboard(basically whole phone)that caused the random reboots.now since i got it...updated to 351 rom..and i didnt get a reboot in one week.simply beautifull this rom...now this is how the streak should be!!!so impressed now.cheers

Really? I havent experienced tht prob yet. Will give it a look into... Thx

Which is the best ROM for the Streak (Poll)

There are a handful of ROMS to choose from now and was just wondering what people consider the best ROMs. The things I am looking at are:
1. Speed
2. Stability
3. Features
If I have missed any please let me know...

Gingerstreak 2.3.3!
Sent from the SuperStreak! ;-)

1st. Streakdroid 1.9.1
2nd.Simplestreak 1.2 or 1.3beta
3rd. Gingerstreak a.k.a Streakdroid 2.3.3beta
Currently rockin' the last one.. quite good besides some hickups now and then..

Using 1.9.1 atm, tried 2.3 but had random turnoffs....
Sent from my A501 using XDA Premium App

StreakDroid 1.9.1 tried SimpleStreak 1.3 test 5 but it doesn't seem as good, StreakDroid has a nice text file to configure options upon installation, i like that.

Hmmm, good question...
I tried Cyanogen 2.0 and liked it, but it kept turning off at random (couldn't figure out why).
I voted for 1.9.1 (most stable for me). But I can't get the headset to work properly (I can hear the caller's voice, but the caller won't hear me).

seems like people are mixing up the ginger streak 2.3 with 2.0.0 . I dont think anyone is using 2.0.0, not to mention saying it is fast and stable...

I would say SD 1.9.1
I have been using SimpleStreak for months now, but just went back to StreakDroid. I like the zip of SimpleStreak derived from being so stripped down, but you gotta hand it to Dj_Steve for creating a ROM that is so damn fast and includes EVERYTHING!
Of course as soon as the new SimpleStreak is final I will probably switch, because I find that they all get stale after a while...

How about the battery life?
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App

1.PlayDoh - v1.0 - 354 base best battery life
2.Simple Streak 1.2 - Lite ROM Speed, Stability
3.Gingerstreak 2.3.3 will be nice when fix all bug's

Cool, thanks for all the responses. It seems the stock rom is the most popular followed by 1.9.1 and 2.3.
I have tried SD 1.9.1 and I'm on 2.0 now but I feel the speed is pretty poor. I'm thinking of switching to simple.
Does the launcher have a big effect on speed?

StreakDroid 2.4
New Streak Droid 2.4 rock! Stable and fast, best available Rom currently for the Dell Streak IMO.

stock 360 the battery lasts me 5 days with light use
(i only use my phone as a phone now i got a cheap tablet for every thing else)

Simple Streak 1.2 -- very stable and smooth as butter

Simple streak 1.2, ciuldnt be happier

tried both long ago on the Streak and the general cconsensus was that it had no effect on the Streak's memory management. now the zeppelinrox will say otherwise, thta it's universal... but truly the scripts are geared toward the same devices that bnefit from moving apps to the sd card (devices with less than 1 gig of cpu and less than 512 mb RAM, those days are long gone. Any device capable of running Gingerbread hasn't much need for it

They wouldn't keep re-flashing updated services.jars on each rom update if it wasn't any good.
Use your head lol

So no need fr supercharger on dell streak 5...kk thanx

ya forget it.
it requires reading comprehension

dude dont say like that man...i loved the v6 i had on gingerstreak. My friend had put that for me. I wanted to know more about v8 so asked. I'm trying to learn all of this so thought to clear-out the procedure and all. Please help me out with a full v8/v6 supercharger guide. I'm currently also trying to learn the die-hard battery calibrator of yours .
I Truly Admire Your Work zeppelinrox...

It's the same as on gingerbread.
On ICS you just have to patch services.jar as well.
This latest version has an ICS Service Centre that helps with getting it patched and applies permissions
