Hello all, I need your help. I'm using dell Streak 5. The phone factory resets by itself, I know that the problem is bad internal SD card, I have some skills for opening phones, and replacing internal parts, so this is no problem for me, but still I need your help. I have several questions:
-Can I put micro SD 2GB or 4GB(I know this is maximum, do not want to edit system files tu accept bigger card) Class 4?....becorse I live in small country, I can't find SD card's with bigger class.
-Which class is the original internal SD card from 2GB?
-And the must imortant question, after replacing the new and formated(in FAT32 I thing) micro SD card need something special to do, or just need to do factory resset and wait for the phone to create partitions on the micro sd card? I am asking this question because my phone is running on latest official Froyo ROM 2.2.2. Is it necessary to instal custom rom, or I can be able to change the inner SD card running on official Froyo, with only factory resset? The data on internal sd card is not important to me, I do not need a back up, I just want my phone to accept the new card, becorse I spent 400 euros for my beloved phone. Thank you very much!
You need to search. This has been covered.
I will tell you that the internal sd card is not formatted fat32 as it is used in the phone.

Ok Thank you, I will replace my new internal sd card without formatting. I was searching everywhere and can't find someone that was replacing internal sd card on phone running on official 2.2.2 Froyo :S. I was found that on Streak with StreakDroid 1.9 Custom RoM is only necessary to do factory resset after replacing the new sd. I don't know if this procedure 'll work on my Streak with Official 2.2.2 ROM. So, can someone ansver me? Thanks .
Maybe Marvin02 or TheManii or someone more knowledgeable can step in but as long as you use a 2GB card, you'll be good with the stock ROM.
BUT this is the part Im not sure of, if you swap out for a 4GB card, then you do need to have installed StreakMod and StreakDroid, this is from personal experience. I changed mine out and had StreakDroid 1.9.0 installed. When I powered the phone up, it did all the work, I just had to wait.
Not sure if the same is true using a 4GB or larger card with stock ROM or any of the other custom ROMs

Hi, I've replaced my original internal 2GB microSD class 2 to 4GB class 10 without any problem (i think Dell Streak will accept any class).
* Download 'QDLTool3rd_20101022_GAUSB1A130500' and unzip to folder on desktop (google 'QDLTool3rd_20101022_GAUSB1A130500').
* Power Dell Streak on the first time with inserted 4GB internal microsd card and wait until auto format is done and display error message come on.
* Power off Dell Streak by remove the battery and re-insert it back after 5 seconds.
* Plug-in USB Data cable into your computer
* Press and hold the volume up button then insert Data cable into the Dell Streak.
* Goto your QDLTool3rd folder on your desktop and execute QDLTool.exe file and select RUN option (should you get driver error then Google search, install and start again).
* On completion your Dell streak will boot into android 2.2 with old Baseband.
From here you can update latest Baseband and flash Steven 1.9 or 1.91 or in my case Simple Streak 1.3 Beta4.
Should you require help PM me. Also check out my previous post for photo of my Dell streak with inserted 4GB microSD, working.

This mean that original internal sd card is only class2?.....I will change it with another 2GB Class 4 micro sd card. So I must run qdl tool?....is it possible to brick my Streak with this software? Thank you very much, if I need help I 'll PM you my friend. Thanks a lot.
This is the problem with not searching for and reading the existing threads on this topic. You are getting replies from just one or two people and not the benefit of previous longer discussions.
Here are some links:
Hardware Hacking the Streak – thread at MoDaCo, main focus is replacing the internal SD Card with a faster, larger card
How-to Increase streak storage up to 62 GB – an extension/continuation of the hardware hacking thread at MoDaCo

While I have not done this replacement I would not recommend using the QDLTool as a first attempt.

Yes, the internal 2GB microSD is class 2 (mine is anyway). I can only tell you that I've ran QDLTool many times over and not yet does my Dell Streak Brick beyond repair (IMO, it's very hard to brick the Dell Streak unless it's hardware damaged). I've messed up my Dell Streak many times, including no power dead, no fast boot, no recovery and no response at all to any button being pressed, and so I though until I was able to recovered using QDLTool and fixed it every time.
FYi, I've removed 4GB microSD card from my Dell Streak and re-inserted the original 2GB microSd back and the Dell Streak boot up fine.
Please understand that this is my past experienced and results, in no way am I saying that the same result will be for your device.
I share my experience 2 days ago, I changed my internal microSD to a Kingston class 10 8GB card, the smallest I can find.
I did a full nandroid backup before removing anything.
Change the cards, power up and 2 partitions are automatically created, mounted at /cache and /data.
Boot to recovery and restored nandroid backup, all is well running Steve's rom 1.91.
I have a similar problem with my streak that I have just got, that it is stuck at the dell logo. When I try to run an update or factory reset it only goes half way through, and says error with e: cache.
I have done qdl but this doesn't work, tried different updates, roms etc with no success. I went onto the fastboot menu and did the engineering codes which seemed to imply a internal memory card fault.
So, my question is, if I replace the internal SD card, will this solve the problem?
I have searched various threads but cannot seem to see the correct solution.
Any help would be appreciated.

My friend be strong and take a leap of faith. Since there is no available answer to your problem and your Dell is not working anyway, why not replace your internal microSD and then follow the method in my previous post and see (start with a 2GB or 4GB first).

I think that if you replace the internal sd card it going to solve your problem. I'm still reading for this problem on Streak, and this seems to be a common problem for Streaks . Please find on google how to dissasamble your Streak is not hard, but be careful there is flax cable under tach panel! My Streak now is working fine after Factoruy ressets and clearing dalve catches on internal sd card.....so I do not know what to do now to change the card or not....

When you used qdl tool....are you sure you had the update.pkg and the matching bb ams file in the same folder as qdl....and the same update.pkg on your sd card.....and no other update.pkg or mbss bb in the folder/sd card except one set
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
I am not an expert on the QDLTool but looking at the version that was available as 'repairtool' on StreakDroid there is no update.pkg in the zip file for that. I am no expert and have only used the versions of qdltool available from StreakDroid.
Also there is a thread in the dev section that indicates that the qdltool is married to a specific set of files unless you modify the code directly. This would mean to me that unless you make modifications to the code any files that did not come with the version of the tool you are using will not be used. Whether having additional files on the sd card or in the folder on your computer where qdltool resides will cause an issue I do not know.
im not an expert in the qdl either....but i remember when i first used it i had to download the update.pkg separetly and put it on sd card....i put a copy in the qdl folder along with the amss/bb file;this was back when the 305 rom came out,so from what i figuered,was the qdl tool is just pushing a factory restore...thats complete(not like just running a fr from streakdroid).....but it uses what ever update.pkg that you put on it.....it doesnt have a built in rom

Pretty much my internal 2gb microSD card has died on me and i need everything off of it to relpace it with a new microSD card. i have a spare 8gb microSD and it would be a great help if somebody could get me these files and then help me partition the 8gb card correctly to work with the streak. ANY help is greatly appreciated because i dont have the money to buy a new Streak
Edit - All is working now. i ended up replacing the card and flashing all the .img files via fastboot. the original card just decided it didnt want to be dead anymore and is now working correctly too. If anyone is having the problem where recovery says to insert a microSD with an update.pkg file (and you actually have it in) the fastboot method is a workaround to flash and all should work back as normal after that
Should be possible without opening ones streak with ADB, maybe even with root explorer. I am at work right now, but if nobody has answered your call I'll see what I can do.

im not the most tech savvy person around but i can follow directions pretty well. i found this thread
http://android.modaco.com/content-page/311538/hardware-hacking-this-puppy-input/page/80/
and was also linked to it on my twin thread at modaco but it doesnt seem like its going to work the way the stock one would also i still wouldnt have the correct files that are supposed to be on the card. the people on that thread are doing it for storage space. i just want it to work like stock but i only have an 8gb card.
Sorry I should have been more clear, shouldn't be too hard for the person who would help you to do it without opening their streak.
Actually, I would think that so long as you get the partitioning correct (you might have to simply ignore the extra six gigs of space), you might just be able to flash the default recovery and install a .pkg from there.

Did you get this to work at all? I am facing the same problem, except I was able to salvage the internal sd-card. I reformatted with the ext3 partitions, same size as before. My problem was that I somehow removed all files from the internal sd-card and my phone went dead, no qdl nothing. If you would please tell me how you fixed this problem.

If you want the internal SD for apps, but open it, change you internal SD, and make a factory reset (NOT from the custom recovery, use the Dell screen).

You didn't format it before inserting the new card? The internal sd should be ext3 like this:
Code:
/dev/block/innersd0p5 /cache ext3 rw,nosuid,noatime,nodiratime,errors=continue,commit=99999,data=writeback 0 0
/dev/block/innersd0p6 /data ext3 rw,nosuid,nodiratime,errors=continue,commit=99999,data=writeback 0 0
I don't know how you could install the rom without having acorrect partition type on your sd card, though. Check to see using 'adb shell mount' on your PC. To format the sd card, you'd need a program like parted.
Hope it didn't misunderstand your problem.
yes, i installed android 2.2 without formatting the micro-sd card. if i'm correct, you'll need ext3 partition for the apps, not for the os. or it's done auto when i did this with the qdltool software.
i'll try something else and i'll post the result here
Hey Guys,
I did something remarkably stupid I think.
* SanDisk 8GB Class 4 SDcard
1. Installed WP7 Mango
2. Got an error message about the SDcard and couldn't use that anymore
3. Hard resetted the phone with my 4GB class 2 Sandisk card and started using that one.
Now... when I place the 8GB in the phone, it doesn't boot. It's just stuck on the HTC screen and doesn't go from there, so I can't unlock this one. (No Nokia's laying around, and the cab files don't really work, as I cannot boot with the 8GB card).
If I would start from scratch (stock...). Would I be able to 'revive' the 8GB card, by formatting it when installing WP7? (It creates the partitions and stuff in MAGLDR).
If not, I have no idea how to revive this card anymore
Please advise
Never mind, this doesn't work either. Good bye 8GB Sdcard...

Yep, tried that too. I spent the entire day yesterday trying to fix it, but I just can't get this to work. The SDcard is not being recognized anywhere.
When starting with Mango is says the card is not functional, and the only options I have is "emergency call" or "close" >> meaning the OS will be shutdown.
EDIT:
For some reason, the complete re-flash worked!
It took 41 minutes(!) for the OS to boot! But now it all seems to be in order
Is there a way to put this to "solved?"
Edit2:
my SanDisk 8GB SDCard clearly does not want to be used with MANGO. Switching back to 4GB. No other way

Please can you explain the procedure you undertook to resolve Your issue?
What did you reflash with corrupt sd card? Did you use storageunlock.cab?

Nope, I just started from scratch. Flash stock - Task29 - magldr - wp7, all with the sdcard inserted.
For me eventually it didnt work out as the card got locked again..

Hello guys,
I do have streak ready with cuted off pice of plastick to get acces to my internal sd card. I did ordered 8gb 10 class card already. Looking for some guide or tutorail how to make streak working after putting new sd inside. I did read about some partitions and stuff but i dont know how to do it. Its any chance somone could help me?
Do a backup with streakmod, turn off, replace card, turn on and let it format its self, turn off, do a streakmod recovery..boom done. But you might have problems with 8gb card. 4gb is what I read it can handle.

Coule you write for me what you did step by step? Im not talking about physical replacement.
is so easy - with the phone turned off replace the internal 2gb card with another (4/8/16/32 gb - 2/4/6/10 class), after that u turn on the phone and let it format the new card itself, after that turn off the phone; on the external card u need to put the image of OS, and after u start the phone u need to enter in fastboot to start the installation of the os . that is all.

To the best of my knowledge you don;t do updates in fastboot mode - you do them in recovery mode. As I have written wehn I put the new 8 GB card in the inner SD slot I did a factory reset from the first screen in StreakMod Recovery and the card was formatted properly. I have since flashed a few different roms to the Streak (352, 360, GSC) with no problems,
yes in recovery mode, my mistake, now i see it
Y'all might want to take a lot at TheManii's guide to flashing the image of a stock inner SD card while you are replacing your factory one, it worked for me
Sorry for my english.I tried to replace the inner sd card dell streak 5 with 4gb. It did not boot, stuck on dell logo. Please help?
