Guys just got this information from my indian customer care that ginger bread will be officially released already for india in next 7 to 10 days and there are strong chances that will be worldwide.
It should have been released a lot way back but goggle being on strike the update was stopped for all.
For those on froyo please keep on checking and let to us who are on gingerbread.

I hope its True Man , a heavy stable version wll b awesOme
It will be enough if the release only for india...for rest of us we have some brilliant dev on XDA.
of course, makes perfect sense.. DJ and Fards just got it stable..*after Dell releases source code*#likely becuz they couldnt do it themselves or would have took them a longer time# $$may not actually be the real reason but feels goot to bash Dell..$$
anywho.. Good news... hopefully its not the last one..

And you were sure, even going so far as to scream it, that we likely weren't getting Gingerbread at all.
I'm teasing, so don't lose your temper. If it happens it's good news. In keeping with Dell's means of shooting out the update, the unlocked Streaks should get the update first.

what numbers are unlocked streaks? I updated to 360 a while back which is a 00 but I don't have a windows pc to flashboot any more
00 ROMs are for unlocked Streaks. If you don't have a Windows PC to flash though, that could be somewhat problematic. In my experience, the OTA upgrades tend to be very flaky, and thus copying the update.pkg to the SD card manually is often a better bet.
i do have an ubuntu laptop..
the last time i used flashboot was on my sisters windows laptop but she does not have it anymore i dont know how to flashboot on linux (is it even possible?) i cant even install StreakMod Recovery anymore without flashboot
I would find a copy of Windows if I were you, because I don't think there is a Linux native version of fastboot out there.
google for fastboot for ubuntu, i don´t have the url here, but i´ve sucessfull used fastboot on ubuntu 11.10
Thanks jitin02 for sharing the news.
It would be nice if they provide a better launcher instead of laggy Stage UI.

that's great news. there are a couple of things that I wish I could see updated and I am writing those down in hope that, maybe the guys developing it read this forum:
* New dialer that:
- works in all dpi's (preferably without visual bugs).
- has smart search (searching for contacts with the stock dialer on streak is a pain).
* gtalk video and audio
* toggles in the notification area (like the samsung touchwiz or cyanogen mod). This is actually a new feature but one that I think that everybody would love.
* fix fastboot erase command (I am not sure that's actually fixable by firmware but since its a wishlist )
* and the most important of all: PLEASE, release the drivers sources so we can port other ROMS, that's actually the single best thing that you could be doing for fellow streakers.

Take the time for this... but can't take the time to do 2.2
yea its BS. My Friend has the T-moble mytouch 3g and he just got the 2.2 update. That phone is older and has less ram with the same processor as our CDMA Hero.
How come t-moble cares about old phones but sprint does not?
@firehawk if you get the update just download it and use adb to pull it off your phone and 7zip (or extraction tool of your choice) to open it up and have a looksy. You don't have to install it right away or at all.
By the way sprint doesn't care about us anymore

You can't compare the MyTouch 3G (MT3G)and the Hero. Have you thought of the fact that the MT3G is based off the simple AOSP? It's as basic as it gets for the Android update process. Google effectively did most of the work, and HTC/T-Mobile just takes it and makes it compatible with the MT3G.
The Hero is built on the Sense framework. So that whole thing needs to be redone for 2.2... so HTC/Sprint has to do a lot more work than it did for the MT3G. As a company with something like a dozen newer Android devices, it's just not economical to spend resources on maintaining it. It sucks, but that's how the tech industry works (and that's also why we have awesome developers working on CM6 for us).
It seems to me with another update they could've given us froyo. I bet that this new update will mess up root again so I'm not going to update it til it can be used with root.

One reason is Samsung is lazy. They have been known to leave their customers hanging, like that awful Behold II incident where customers were promised 2.1 and instead Samsung abandoned everyone with 1.6. Even their high end Galaxy S is taking them until Jan or Feb next year to come out. Even if the Moment is built on AOSP it doesn't mean Samsung can just cut and paste the Google code and be done with it. They have to actually do some work to get it fully compatible, but I suspect Samsung does not want to invest in the amount of effort required to do so. I expect Samsung would have many different components and required drivers from HTC devices, so getting them compatible with 2.2 might be giving the sdx devs some trouble.

That's at&ts decision. Not dells. Froyo is out for the streak. Most phones that are unlocked get their releases fast as they don't pass through carriers. They are direct from the manufacturer.

just for a comparison, the Italian version of my actual device, HTC touch HD, never got any ROM update because it was branded (not even locked) by an Italian carrier.
anyway. i don't really think there will be a gingerbread update. at least not a dell official one. all the other competitors have made official statements, tweets, and whatnot about updates to 2.3, silence from dell. skeptical... i just hope they won't be inspired by motorola on this one
i see a chance of dell dropping support for the streak on their mobile line. i dont think its done that well and i think its kinda their fault. however, if it stays on the lineup for another couple months, it may just get gingerbread. id be expecting it more from djsteve than dell though. just as a side note: no android phone on att officially has froyo yet. ponder that.

They are still selling it as new on carriers world round. So.... we'll see? But I'm sure we'll get it ported over one way or another! I haven't had much experience with Android, so I have no idea on how to do any of that kind of stuff ... So I'll wait and see if Dell mentions anything!
I think we will get Gingerbread.. Personally, I've seen more and more good news about the Streak and I would hope that because of this Dell would offer to support the Streak's upgrade path.
We all know Gingerbread is said to be more tablet friendly and Dell has marketed our device as a tablet first (phone 2nd). If it's not official from Dell I'm sure someone from XDA will keep the dream alive

nothing better than a 5" screen to see it on lol. I agree though i think it will get gingerbread, for the reason that the Dell 7 will more than likely be announced at CES people will jump to get a cheaper model price wise the streak and see if its good so that they can get the 7 for say business. Im sure it will get gingerbread as soon as it starts rolling out at least the unlocked version will lol. Not many have gingerbread if im not mistaken ive only seen the Nexus with a legit gingerbread .
I think theres no gingerbread update for streak
the main new fiture in ginger bread is nfc suported, but dell doesnt have nfc chip on it,,

NFC support could be most hyped hardware thingie on gingerbread but mass market adoption will take time and there are many alternative ways to support such functionality even without a built in IC. Whether streak will get an official update or not depends on dell moving its butt to make it happen but I also use nexus one and it will be gingerized without an NFC IC and hopefully start rolling very very very soon...
More than 2 finger multitouch, gyro capabilities and apps utilizing/supporting such features will be more of my concern rather than specific support for NFC on existing hardware as gingerization rolls out...

I feel it will get gingerbread. Reason is that Google hasnt said that you need to have anything to use gingerbread unlike with Honeycomb its just up to dell to get it done.

Okay the bootloader hasn't been cracked but don't let that get you down because the great Dev's have been working on it and now there may even be a workaround.
Bin4ry has managed to get his own kernel to load with custom image included, and although at this early stage the touchscreen and usb don't work this is definitely 1 big step closer to opening up our beloved x10's
Update - custom kernal has been loaded and touch screens working, confirming the workaround

Wow this is awesome to hear!!!! I'm really excited to see how this unfolds

If Bin4ry has issues with including his breakthrough then I'm sure it will be deleted

i'm happy with the news but it's kind of sad to read how just a little step after all these months make us all excited;when i just read last night that the htc thunderbolt bootloader was cracked after 2 or 4 days of its released.
i will support all the effort the dev and you ppl put into this but so disappointed wwith the way sony works,much like apple in my point of view.Is not bad coz they protect their products or intelectual whatever its call,but isn't the whole point of android os to be completly custumisible? if sony doesnt want us to do that or if in the near future the bootloadre is cracked,would they sue the dev?
why they don't create their own iphone then?
so disapointed,after using sony cellphones the last 6 yrs,this is the last for a while i think for me.but im so grateful for all the work and support of the dev and members.peace.
Im kinda on the fence with this post....but i have to lean towards the next "bootloader" post should only come when/if its cracked.

There's never been a phone with such a secure protection, and if this phone has an exploit then chances are new model's won't. This news though not complete is the closest the Dev's have come to finding a workable exploit. And what Bin4ry has done is show that we can have custom kernel's, this is a win in my eyes

It is NOT hacking the bootloader it is just ignoring it... Like doing a side loading of the Kernel. Unfortunately if you reboot your phone the phone will boot as normal with Original SE files....
Never the less it is great news, if he can get a script to start the kexec tool in every reboot the bootloader will be totally ignored and we can load the custom kernels.

But he's got Honeycomb 3.1 on Streak7, so he should be able to get it on Streak5 as well
As stated in first post Steve is waiting on a set of drivers that Dell cannot release do to licensing. Dell has released the shareware parts of Android, but without the modem drivers he is up the creek without a paddle. Now he has a standing offer to anybody that knows how to write code, he will gladly accept any working drivers you have to offer. With luck we have somebody in his basement working like a hampster in spinning wheel writing that driver

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IS IF SOMEONE CAN PLEASE ME HELP ME OR IS THERE A WAY TO HACK INTO THE DELL STREAK 7 TABLET TO ENABLE PHONE FUNCTIONS AND FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO USE MY VOICE/DATA PLAN FROM MY SIM CARD IN THE STREAK...... IT WOULD SERIOUSLY BE EXTREMELY HELPFUL.....ALSO IF IT COULD BE A STEP BY STEP PROCESS U CAN POST HERE OR IF SOMEONE CAN POINT ME TO THE RIGHT FORUM IT WOULD BE GREAT LIKE I SAID ITS CURRENTLY RUNS HONEYCOMB 3.2 AND EVERYTHING IS STABLE PLEASE !!!! PLEASE!!!! PLEASE !!!! HELP.....THANK YOU

They better give it to us now after that, no one likes a ****-tease Amy!
The way I see it, it would be great i don't use my the phone at all I use my Streak5 as a tablet and it'll be a lot better then depending on what your using it it for I believe that DjSteve can make it happen like at what if did for the Streak7 so i have high faith that if he has enough time and feel like it he could make it happen.

Dude , i know this . i was the first to ask her+ i asked the dell tech team , dell care, + amyatdell itself via PM , wat i got was no.
But it would be nice if we see gb update from dell.
May be dell is waking itself from the sleep for against streak5

Having honeycomb would be good experience, phone dont work .. can be ok BUT......... if there will be software support for it, after release service, rest of things will be working smooth.......................................................then hc can be considered otherwise, GB will be better
yea gingerbread or honeycomb im just tried of froyo plus there more usable root apps for gingerbread i tried steve streakdroid 2.0 and got a mess of problems battery drain, 3-4 redoom reboot even after dell factory reset so im on 1.9.1 till something new comes out
I definitely want HC, I guess that is the OS the device was designer for. Froyo or GB is just not using this big screen (same for the apps). But it is true, that I might need phone functions from time to time... maybe later there will be some hack to make calls on HC...
But I am definitely for HC anyway and I am willing to donate after I see at least usable release...
Would GB be nice to have? Sure, is it necessary? Not unless it is as
bullet proof as 2.2.2 for my preference.
I use the PHONE a lot (2000 min a month) for work 75% personal use 25%
(my boss pays 1/2 of my cell bill).
I use pretty much everything on the device, with the exception of music.
I watch a video once in a while, not much, but email, text, web browsing
get used daily.
I need stable, not flaky. If Dell can get GB to work correctly, then I'd update,
otherwise, I'll stick with froyo.
Hmmm,...honeycomb would be very fine, but without phone functions?! no way...the best thing with my Streak is the fact that it integrates all the functions I need for my everday life...
In this case I wouldn´t be able to use dj steve´s honeycomb at all (sad but true)...a working GB version would be, of course, a very fine thing too!
guys, just set up a free VOIP, like google voice, it will even ring your incoming calls.
HC on Streak 5 would be sooooo Epic Winning!
Imagine the PR for Dell it would bring, would probably go from being virtually uknown/unheard of to the new hottest thing!
Somebody get this DJ_Steve fella a well paying corporate android job!
