I upgraded to Dell build 351, and did not do factory reset.
I found it's just so slow. It freezes very often. When it's freezing, a popup window comes up(saying "force exit" or "wait"). If selects force exit, the stage UI just restarts. Anyone encounters this problem.
I also realize that I stop some of the services, such as OVO, weather update, and map location service. The UI becomes slightly faster, but it still can not compare to the old versions that I was using(probably build 318).
Do I have to do factory reset ? I just feel there will be too much work to re-install all Apps ?
Or another question. is latest Streakdroid as stable as official build ?
Thanks a lot.

How do you remove ovo, facebook and dell stage UI ? I didn't find in the "setup/application managment".
You will need to have a rooted phone and an app like Root Uninstaller to get rid is system apps.

1. When you upgrade using a Dell PKG file, that process functions exactly like a factory reset, except for the software upgrade. Just one question: why did you not update to 360, since that is the latest retail ROM and updates the bundleware (especially Oovoo)?
2. If the Streak freezes and you get constant force closes, you can try using Root Uninstaller to delete the apps you're not using and then change your launcher from Stage UI to one of the popular ones on the Market. Stage UI is a resource hog.
3. Given your symptoms, be aware that the very real possibility exists that you will have to flash the firmware again, despite removing apps using Root Uninstaller. I personally had such a bad flash in upgrading from 347 to 351, and flashing again solved the problem.
4. I can't answer your questions regarding Streakdroid. I'm on 360 right now.

You will need to rOOt ur device. (if u dont know how to. pls search the forum there is a thread)
get a file explorer like root explorer (it gives u root access).
open the root file explorer. on the top there is a button saying r/w. click it and it will turn to r/o .
now , go to system/app. delete apps u dont need . and
now to data/data. delete the folders of the name of the apps u just deleted in system/app( as this one i do always, y to leave the data of the app u dont need and delete).
Now restart, (i prefer doing it this way. rather than using any app to do this.
hey jitin.
thanks for reply dude..
i will try ur method and delete apps that i dont need.
but is it safe to delete stage ui?

Install any launcher from the market before you delete stage ui, otherwise you'll end up with a black screen that you can't do anything with. The most popular ones are adw, launcher pro, go launcher ex, and zeam. They're all good in their own ways.

Thanks for all the suggestions. After few days going through the post and experiment.
My Dell Streak is back to normal life. Here is what I did and found.
* I first did factory reset. Stage UI becomes smoother, but still some times lags, and force quit window pops up.
* I upgraded to build 360 because I am sick of OOVOO, which is always running in build351.
* After upgrade 360, I still see the ACCUWX.apk keeps coming back, and hog resource/battery. Even worse is a "connectivity problem" window pops up when I visit some of the web sites, such as engadget.com, and even quote.yahoo.com.
* Then I did root using (superuser.zip), installed zeam, and removed OOVOO, ACCUWX.apk, STAGE UI, FACEBOOK, TWEITT and some other pkgs that I never use.
* Reboot the streak. Wow, everything is so smooth now, and don't see "connectivity" problem when I visit those web sites.
I have been dealing with "connectity problem" for a while. That's the reason that I did upgrade to 351 from 318. I don't know which component caused the connectivity problem.
Another problem is there for while too. I found the Android Market App search button doesn't work(iit sends me back to home page of Android Market App). I have to go to Android Market web site to do the search, select the App that I found, and open it in Market App, and download/install it. Android Market App is updated automatically after I visit once. When the build was just installed, AndroidMarket App is old version. The search button is working in the old version. After I close the AndroidMarket, reopen it, it becomes new version. The search button doesn't work.
The launcher, zeam is simple, not that fancy compare to Dell Stage UI, but it's really slick. I am fine with the simple functionality. Fast response and light weight is more important to me.
Try to flash Simple streak it can help you fix this problem

Is there a way to upgrade straight from the phone without a PC?
Actually, yes there is. If the phone is rooted and you have disabled install-recovery.sh by renaming it to install-recovery.sh.bak or something similar, rename the file back to install-recovery.sh then reboot. That will replace Streakmod with the stock recovery.
After booting, download the ROM of your choice from the Wiki and save it to the root of the SD. Rename it to Update.pkg (including the capital "U"), and then shut down the phone. Turn the phone back on and run the normal ROM update procedure.
The updater isnt case sensitive (at least for the first letter), either 'update.pkg' or 'Update.pkg' should work, just dont expect much if you capitalize it randomly.
I always use the lowercase one.
The first letter typed into the Swype keyboard is capitalized and thus the file would be saved as Update.pkg. I think that was what I was trying to get across, but didn't do a good job of it.

I'm actually not running streakmod... I'm running stock 347 baseband but I'm also rooted. Can u give me instructions on how to do it the way I'm setup?
I already explained it. Just ignore the part about replacing the recovery since you're running the stock recovery anyway. You will have to root the phone again afterward since the standard ROM update process wipes everything.

So, as Froyo is slowly becoming the standard around here, I thought I would post a few workarounds for some of the problems that people are having with Froyo and the wide selections of Froyo ROMS to choose from. I put this list together, as these problems I see coming up in many of the Froyo ROM threads.
So, I ll start with a few of the most common ones, and will add to this list later.
Issue -My apps are appearing twice in the ADW apps launcher after moving them to the SD card! (Froyo apps2sd)
Workaround-It seems almost everytime I reboot the phone that Im getting the apps appearing twice. If you uninstall ADW, and then reinstall it, then it stops. So what I ve done for the time being is to install ADW new, get all the widgets and apps you want on the home screen, and then go into the restore and backup settings in ADW launcher. Make a backup of your ADW settings and of your homescreens and save those to your sd card (it does this automatically). Then, the next time you need to reboot your phone and you see double apps coming up, just go into ADW settings and "Restore" your settings for the launcher and homescreens. Then the double apps go away, your settings are retained, and your apps and widgets are back on your homescreen.
If your using the same apps and widgets all the time, its probably a good idea to do a Nandroid after you ve done this, and to save the 2 ADW save files stored on your sd card just in case you ever want to quickly restore your settings again.
Issue- Froyo apps2sd is rubbish! I only have 40mb left on internal storage! I want the old apps2sd back!!
Workaround- First off, I have to admit that at first I didn’t like the new Froyo apps2sd. But actually now, I like it more, due to the fact that you don’t need an EXT or swap (meaning MORE SPEED), AND coupled with the fact theres a very easy way to get FOUR TIMES MORE STORAGE than the 40mb (estimate for 115 apps) that you have left. The solution? Easy..all you have to do is go into your ROMS settings, and “move dalvik to cache”. To put it simply, I have 117 apps installed on my phone. After I moved them all to the sd card, I had 40mb left. I then went into the spare parts on Emonthers ROM, and enabled “dalvik on cache”. I then rebooted, and VOILA…137mb free internal space.
I cant confirm that all ROMS have this option, but if your ROM does have it, it’s the way to go. From what I ve read (please correct me if im wrong), this space is allocated mostly for OTA updates. As most of us here have root, why not use that space to free up some internal memory! After doing this, my phone is running VERY fast and smooth.
Issue- My phone keeps rebooting at the load screen! HELP!!
Workaround -This commonly occurs if you didn’t wipe properly when coming from another ROM. If this is happening to you, you ll need to:
Pull your battery to get the loops to stop
Reboot into recovery
Do a full wipe, then if you have an ext partition wipe that. Also wipe cache and dalvik settings. This is very important. Then flash your ROM. Your Bootloops should then stop. And remember, if your partioning your card, remember to REPAIR EXT PARTITIONS. This is VERY important and will save you lots of grief.
Issue- When I record video my phone reboots! HELP!
Workaround- This means you haven’t installed the Froyo radio. You ll need to be sure you have either flashed the zip version of the Froyo radio or installed the image (Cyan says installing the image is safer. Im sure hes probably right, but I can confirm I have flashed the zip version of the radio and it works fine).
Issue-I don’t know which apps to install to the sd card and which I should leave on the phone! AAARRGGHH!
Workaround- From what I have read, what you ll want to leave on the phone are:
Widgets, apps that have widgets that you use, keyboards, and system apps. I also keep my sms app on the phone, although Im sure it will work fine on the SD card.
Issue- I just flashed a new ROM, and now the app launcher is all slow! Whats up with that??
Workaround- This is most likely because your apps are being automatically redownloaded and installed. This is a feature of Android that was added to Eclaire that allows Google (with your permission) to backup your settings (apps, wifi key, ect). Give the phone a minute and you ll see in your app launcher that your apps are being added automatically! When its done, you ll get a notification that says “ “X” number of apps reinstalled. Saves you time and work, and now your launcher will stop lagging.
Issue- There are so many Froyo ROMS! Which one is the best one!??!
Workaround- This is like asking if basketball is cooler than football. In short: it’s a matter of opinion. I can however share my findings so far.
Cyan6- We all know the quality of Cyan and TeamDouches work. When there ROMS go stable, they..well…they JUST WORK GREAT. Cyans ROMS are always very detailed and COMPLETE (trackball lights, wallpapers, advanced options) Right now, for me the ROM is still very buggy, so I would give it the number 3 spot.
RoDrIgUeZsTyLe- If you like overclocking and speed, this ROM is a winner! His ROMS have a lot of kernel options and overclocking enhancements, and are fairly stable. Very recommended.
Enomther- At this very moment, this ROM takes the cake and is easily my number 1 pick. Stable, fast, TONS of enhanced features and extra settings, and I can honestly say I haven’t had one FC yet. I can understand why hes one of the top dogs here. His newest ROM has been an AWESOME Froyo experience for me, and I ll be sticking with him until Cyan goes stable.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER FROYO ROMS. THESE ARE JUST THE ONES THAT I HAD THE BEST EXPERIENCES WITH. YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE MAY VARY!! THE DEVS HERE ALL DO GREAT WORK, AND THIS IS BY NO MEANS SAYING THAT ONE IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER!
Anyway, that’s all I have for now. I hope this helps out, and I ll be adding to this thread as more common problems come to me. I hope it helps someone out, and I really hope it saves our awesome devs some time from answering questions. After all, it takes time creating all the awesomeness that they bring!

Quite possibly yes. Try deleting that folder, rebooting, and then try to install. Make sure the folder doesnt reappear after reboot. If it does, try just deleting it and then downloading and installing an app.
Also, be sure to let me know if it works, so that I can add it to the thread.
thank you for the information. I would suggest that you try Leo Froyo. Very stable and full of options.

Are u using the old apps2sd or the new? I read in another thread that deleting this folder was allowing some to download apps after deleting it. I personally haven't had his problem, but ill search around to see if I can find a workaround.
Download this file here and make sure it doesn't have .txt as file ext, but .xml instead. Rename if necessary.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6602402&postcount=8
Then follow this instruction.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7046487&postcount=29
If it doesn't work, you most likely don't have the shared_prefs folder. So just create one.
Hope it helps. Good luck.

LOL. Yes, I know what the new Froyo apps to sd is I asked because in many of the Froyo ROMS you have the possibility to choose between the new implemented from Google apps2sd or the old style apps2sd that we seen in builds prior to Froyo.
Have you given rjhay22's suggestion a try? Please let me know if it fixes so that I can get it added to the original post.

Never seen any of these problems... Apps2SD is okay, just more apps need to support it.. I have 4-5 5M+ apps which don't, and it'd help a lot if they did. I'm sitting around 30M free after clearing browser cache with a ton of apps installed on my stock OTA.

Just on the basis of that one point, your only choice as of now would be WildPuzzle. Anyhow, as I replied earlier, market worked perfectly for me on WP, so, try installing again after wiping everything. (I recommend 0.7 over 0.8)

I have installed (and uninstalled) hundeeds of apps on my Wildfire, because I like to experiment with them, and, I use the Android Market from the wildfire itself to do it.
As I said, I dont know if a recent update has broken the market or not, but, when I was using Wildpuzzle before CM7 came out, Market worked 101% for me, right down from downloading, installing, and updating apps.
For your issue, you can PM melvinchng and ask him. Just read a post by him somewhere stating he has switched back to WP from CM7.
My suggestions:
* As I said before, try reinstalling WP again
* Try market remover from the patched market thread, and, try installing it again, then try it.
* Switch to another ROM of your choice, but I doubt there is any that will fulfill all your needs as stated by you.

I think you're a little behind on news and thats why you don't get his question - the market now has a web-based interface - here. You can install apps from there to the phone.

Make sure you're signed in on the market first. (ignore the rest of this post if you are) I had the same problem. Click sign in on the top right. Then it will allow you to install apps. (a dialog will popup asking you to choose your device, it will not allow you to choose wildfire for non-qvga apps unfortunately)
Edit: Oh and online market should work regardless of what ROM you're using. It even detected non-qvga apps (eg. Engadget) I had installed using AppBrain on Sense and then restored using TitaniumBackup on CM7.
Damn I was mixing up com.android.market (The process) and market.android.com (the WEB market for PC's).
Well, Ok, now I have the difference.
Anyhow, I havent tested this on WP. So I cant help you in it.
It opens fine, I can search for apps, it shows even if I purchased the app, but I cannot install them, or even see my apps, get a black screen and then force close...
I have Ramad deodexed JVH, no kernel, no tweaks...
Stock JVH here, no issues as you describe. Market works without any flaws..
^ Same with me stock JVH no problems, perhaps its an issue with Ramad's version? Not saying it is but send him a message or check his thread to see if others are having the same issue
Easy way to find out is to just reflash the stock ROM, see if you have the same issue
Have you checked your IMEI? I've read somewhere here on the forum (will provide a link as soon as I find it) that IMEI corruption can cause some market problems

Ok try following, need root explorer or super manager(free).

Go back and uninstall Market(this will only uninstall update not actual Market since it's in System.
Maybe this will work since I had issues with updated Market.

I love my Continuum.
But... it is so much "noisier" than all other Android phones that I tried!
By "noisier", I mean constant bombardment of the system log by all the applications that run there and, most annoyingly, random interruption by unsolicited notifications, messages, RSS, etc.
This gets in the way of certain applications that I run in the foreground, so I tried an application called "Android Assistant" to help kill unneeded applications/services on boot. It doesn't help, as the system seems not to allow killing certain processes.
Is there a Continuum ROM that's cleaner than the latest ec07?
Is there a CyanogenMod ROM for the Continuum?
Frankly, I prefer keeping the existing ROM and only install a Market application that kills on boot all the the applications that I don't need (e.g. Market, Gmail, Corporate Email, etc.), but is there such an application that really works?
Thanks!
Titaniumbackup or a root tool to uninstall bloat / apps u don't use. That's short of setting up a kitchen and cooking ur own rom.
PS I'd try tib first cause I remember the trouble u had with flashing the rom to begin with

My ROM is less bloated, but it still has like Gmail for example
I enjoy a very minimulistic device with very little clutter and apps.. I am currently working on a rom based on nuckin's, with a few tweeks, apks removed and some added to my liking. i am currently flashing the first test. Hopefully with a day or two, or even possibly tonight if it doesn't get to late i will post it up in a beta form.
Thats what Im talking about when are we going to get Cyanogen to make us a rom

Good memory!
I actually took a look at TIB and the task of deciding which application or service to uninstall looks daunting.
This is especially scary when I am prompted by the following warning when I try to uninstall via TIB:
Some system packages are needed for your phone to work properly. If you un-install the wrong package, it's your fault and you may need to reinstall your ROM !

How do I know up front which system packages I can uninstall? For example, if I uninstall Gmail, will the Market stop working?
For example, I uninstalled a few applications that I don't need and now I am getting periodic "Force close" messages for the following:
hiddenmenu - com.android.hiddenmenu
Messaging - com.android.mms
What is "hiddenmenu"?
I am attaching a text file listing all currently installed APKs. If you could provide tips which ones must absolutely remain on the phone, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

well i think we could do something with CM as soon as/if we ever get an open source kernel newer than 2.1update.
I love my new Nexus 7 but the lack of the default Browser is rather painful for me to do without. Does anyone else miss that Browser? The ability to never see the address bar as it frees up screen real estate as well as the Quick Controls, which I find are superior to any browser on Google Play, are the main reasons I want to see this browser back on Android 4.3. I already tried to install BrowserGoogle.apk and it just will not install. I wonder is anyone up to making this work for 4.3?

Once root is available you can grab the apk here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2377610 :good:

Thanks, but that one won't install either.
You should just accept that it's not coming back, just like SD card support

It'll say device not supported when you click to run it, but it works.
Install the flash player attached after.

You can't just install the standard browser like other apk's:
Once you have root, remount /system rw.
Copy the browser.apk I linked before to /system/apps
Rename browserproviderproxy.apk and .odex to something else
Ensure the permissions on browser.apk are 664 (rw-rw-r--)
Reboot
ES file explorer can be used for everything if you're not comfortable doing it from a shell session.
Ta,

I've used that app myself before, works great HOWEVER the version linked above is from 4.3 rather than 4.2.2. It doesn't look like the app has been updated for 4.3 yet.
There aren't any noticeable changes in the 4.3 version though anyway as far as I can tell, so whatever works for you really.

Im not sure I follow your logic.
The APK it installs is from 4.0 for the browser and the Flash is from ICS....What difference does it make if the app to install it is for 4.2.2..Almost every single App I have installed from playstore is from 4.2 or bellow....Not to mention Most of these peeps here wont even want to change the name of an app, then place it in a folder, then change its permissions. Hell just the fact that this thread was started shows that most won't even search for the how to.

I'm not talking about the app to install it, I'm talking about the version of browser.apk the app installs. I didn't realise it was the 4.0 version of browser installed, I assumed it would be the version taken from aosp 4.2.2 and would be updated to install the version from 4.3 shortly. Why isn't it installing the latest version of browser available? Only reason I can think of is for compatability maybe?
Similarly, I would always reccomend downloading the latest version of flash directly from the adobe website than using some apk posted on xda, personally. If people can't be bothered and the shortcut methods work fine for them then great! But there's no harm in giving the info on how to do it manually. Knowledge is power!

Ahhh gotcha. :good:
I appreciate it guys but when I was trying to root, I got my new Nexus 7 stuck on Fastboot mode screen. It's no longer recognizing USB through the PC. I can't pull the battery, power + - vol doesn't work. Is this thing bricked?

Sorry... I had to hold power + - vol a little while longer. It's up now. Thanks for your help. I'm going to do some thorough research so I can properly root this thing.

You are welcome.
This is perfect thanks for posting. Sadly I have three websites I use for work that are flash intensive.
So much flaming, so little time.
Take it elsewhere kids. Unless it relates to helping the OP get an AOSP browser, do not post it.
Do you know anything about the AOSP Browser Installer in the Play Store ?
What is this browser ?
I installed it and it took 5 minutes the the device to reboot ... then it seemed to factory reset my device kinda ... all the google apps were older from when I updated recently. Also, every app that had been purchased was gone ... I had to re-install and it gets worse before I could re-install I had to go into the /data/data folder and delete the paid app's folder then it would install ... not sure why this happened it was a pain to do this, is their any tool that could have fixed this ?
Google should have never removed it from these devices on the stock ROMs. Chrome even today is still not as smooth.
