デルの最新スマートフォン『DELL Streak™ Pro』、3月発売決定
The Streak Pro finally launched in Japan as:
Softbank: 101DL (finally 2 months late)
E-Mobile: GS01
New Info bits:
Latest known softbank rom: 071, region 12
Latest known emobile rom: 063, region 17
Android 2.3.5
Stage 2.0
I'd imagine it's pretty 'stock' like the 40x roms for the S5, V.
0xx roms are usually prototype roms
I'm seeking an owner of any SPro to dump files for me, you dont need to be rooted or anything.
Even though though the S10 launched in only china, there are a dozen owners that arnt in china and post on xda (myself included). Hopefully a SPro owner is willing to come and dump the system partition of the SP.
For the few users that have used both S5-407 and V-408 they should be aware that the V has better battery life due to bugs being fixed (even though the S5 has a slightly larger batt). The SPro should likely be like the S10 by now and have great battery life.
I would expect the SPro to have an unlocked bootloader like all previous dell devices, but also likely not have great rom support due to it not having driver sources released.
Note: dont bother complaining about dell here, it doesnt really accomplish anything. You should complain on any of their social media pages/email them/call them and complain there. At least they have a chance of seeing it there, I dont really expect anyone from dell mobility to browse the S5 xda subforum more then every now and then, if at all.
If anything, go complain on their pages that it's impossible to contact the offical dev team, dell pretty much has a brick wall seperating us from them. Even if they cant give any code, hints would go a good way wouldnt it?
I bought streak pro.
works so fine

Would you be willing to upload a copy of your /system?
All you need is to copy it to your sd card and zip it up, you only a file manager to do so. Dont need to be rooted
I cant find a uploader...
/system is already ziped.
but I cant find a 200MB over files uploader

Hi TheMaii,
Is it possible to port stage 2.0 to S5 GB or CM7?
Looking forward for a stage ui 2.0 on our streak.

Hi TheMaii,

Yes, but you MUST do a fac reset and manually restore data to use it on a device that previously had any version of dell stage installed.
(Assuming that the stage 2.0 launcher doesnt have any surprises, the stage 2.0 widgets havnt given me much trouble)
Stage 2.0 is signed with a different version of dell's certs but uses the same shared id name. This means that stage 1.5/1.6 will block eachother from installing.
I will prep a package, but ironically I wont be able to test it for a week as I am on spring break and my S5 was the only thing I didnt bring as I thought I didnt need it (and it was the only one I didnt bring).
Edit: file downloaded, first impressions:
I believe Stage 2.0 is portable to other devices, with the previously mentioned caviat that you cannot have had installed stage 1.5/1.6
Included version: 2.0-v1.0.11, version on market: 2.0-v1.0.13
the SPro's rom isnt made by qisda and possibly not pegatron
Edit2: could you confirm the version numbers in settings -> about phone, since it's not made by qisda I cant easily determine it from the build.prop.
Just give me everything to be sure or a picture or a screenshot.
In process of backporting Stage 2.0, unfortunately it's a lot more complex then merely working with Stage 1.5/1.6/1.7.
I believe the biggest issue is that it requires modifying the BOOTCLASSPATH, which can only normally be modified by editing the kernel itself (more specifically, init.rc in the ramdisk). This basically means it'll only boot on the S5 with a modified kernel
If I do manage to get it working, perhaps we can convince the various rom makers/kernel devs to add the line in and the associated files.
Just to be sure, I need the contents of <root>\init.rc, specifically the line: (from a working Streak Pro of course)
Code:
export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/bouncycastle.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/core-junit.jar:/system/framework/kafdex.jar:/system/framework/com.dell.server.divide.jar
and know if it matches that EXACTLY or not, the order is very important

How to root strea pro d43
hi there
I tried to SuperOnelclick,Gingerbreak,visinaly,z4root and DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit.
but I cant get root...
Streak pro d43 from baidu got rooted with SuperOneClick.
Please help me how to root streak pro d43 from japanese carrier
I didnt really expect those to work, at this point (for the most part) the only way to root anything above 2.3.4 or so is to install a custom recovery and flash superuser.zip or something similar.
Until someone finds another exploit that's the only way to root.
Someone needs to make a custom recovery to root though that method. I'd offer to make one but I would need to own/have access to a SPro to do that.
Another update on backporting Stage 2.0:
Stage 2.0 is heavily integrated into the stock SPro rom, current changes:
added com.dell.android.app.deviceadmin.jar and com.dell.server.divide.jar to BOOTCLASSPATH
added assorted dependency apks (of course)
modified framework.jar [!!]
If/when I finally get it booting, it's definitely going to require roms to explicitly add support for Stage 2.0.
The reason: the Stage 2.0 launcher apparently directly adds Dell divide support into it. Unlike the S10 (which also has it) it's heavily integrated instead of being just an extra entry in settings.
I'd be able to work faster if I had a working Stage 2.0 install though, at this point I've added all the visible dependencies, it's still crashing out and I'm running out of clues
It seems that you are really working hard to port stage 2.0 on our streak.

Bootloader Unlocking - 100% PERFECT:
100% Working Bootloader unlocking solution for Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro. You dont even need confirmation from Xiomi. You can UNLOCK / RE-LOCK Bootloader at any time...
Trust me, I have personally tested and unlocked my device. Follow steps mentioned over here : Click here
Conclusion : Dont wait for Xiamo to get the permission to unlock ur device. Follow above method. Altough u get permission, at least 95% chances that Mi Unlock application fails. I was trying with Mi unlock app for days and even following up in mi forums, with no working solution. They simply said, try it after a week... So, I dont want some one to waste their valuable time like me...

There are two ways,
1. Flashing Fastboot rom from mi forum will relock your Boot loader.
2. From the above mentioned tutorial, backup the original "fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn" file and it will relock the bootlader. optionally, you can try "fastboot oem lock" command as well.

On POST 3, I have given the link to the complete process and it works perfectly.
So, barely, its like, flashing 7.1.7 or 7.1.8 version with CHANGED MBN file. (MBN file is the main file which will allow unlocking from Fastboot command)
After flashing with changed MBN file, run the FASTBOOK OEM UNLOCK_GO command to unlock the file.
Then, u can check FASTBOOT OEM DEVICE-INFO to check the status. Then, flash other OS like CM12/13 or Qualcommn rom.
If u want MIUI os then, use FASTBOOT command to flash TWRP and reboot to TWRP. Then, download RECOVERY ZIP file and with WINZIP replace MBN and Changed BOOTLOADER (TWRP) file and then flash that file in TWRP. These steps are like an overview of the process, if u want more info, u can google it or check, MI forum
Hey guys I'm thinking of buying this phone the 32gb/3gb SD650 version to be specific and it's nice it's getting a custom roms just like the mtk version. How's the CM12/13 roms as for now overall? Stability, battery you know.. are these roms suitable for daily use? Btw now I have a K3 Note.
Custom ROMs are at very early stage and are not suitable for daily usage. As the kernel drivers are already out, we hope stable version will come soon... Qualcomm factory ROM is stable but feels slow...
Subbed and rated. Thanks for updating ^^
Direct Link to OTA for 7.2.3 is updated in first post. If anyone didnot get the OTA, download 190+MB zip file and put zip file in folder: /internalstorage/downloaded_rom/ Then, updater to update to new version of stock.

Nope, u ll not brick your phone. I have done that and it works flawlessly... I have unlocked bootloader and installed Qualcomm and CM12 roms and again flashed stock OTA via MI updater app. I didnt have any problem.
Although its not for novice users, in most of the cases, hardware bricking a phone is almost not possible, unless, u try to play directly with hardware. And, softbrick will easily be recoverable(Well u need a PC and drivers for sure)... its just like, when u r not able to run the OS in your phone, then, repair shop guy will just flash the stock rom and will give it back to you.... Just, thats what we are doing with MI updater. As mentioned earlier, this may not be for normal user...
Anyway, Thread 2 updated with new tutorial on How to flash OTAs without relocking your phone...
Hi,
guess this will be more of a review as it is hard to say which feature i like BEST:
Got my MAX 3gb/64gb (helium) delievered yesterday. Since it came with the 7.3 MIUI first thing i had to do was read up on how to install the MIUI8 China dev rom to the device. After a bit of fiddling and translating chinese / indian websites i came up with a workable solution, even with the bootloader locked. So since yesterday evening i got MIUI8 6.6.23 running on the device - weeded out some apps i did not understand (chinese) and installed Play Store.
So far i must say - this phone is glorious. MIUI8 is fast and seemingly stable, i did not come across any big bugs and there doesnt even seem to be the typical micro-stuttering. Im really happy i bought the phone and hoping there will be a multilanguage (i.e. german) MIUI8 for it. For now im perfectly good with the Dev Rom and english localisation.
Thanks Xiaomi!
To anybody interested - flashing the China Development ROM (MIUI 8 6.6.23) with the locked bootloader was not exactly easy, here is how to:
- get the rom image from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-299033-1-1.html (be sure to download the Mi Max Pro fastboot image - 1418mb)
- get MiFlash Beta from here: http://xiaomitips.com/download/new-miflash-beta-one-click-install-miui-fastboot-rom/
- extract tgz fastboot image - keep folder structure!
- enable developer options -> usb debugging in additional settings then turn off phone
- boot phone into EDL mode (phone off, press simultaneously vol+&vol- then connect usb cable)
- open miflash beta - there should be an entry with "id 1" and "device" something like "COM10" in the bottom table now - SEE ATTACHED SCREENSHOTS!
- select the folder where extracted image is located
- tick "clean all" in the bottom right
- hit flash
- enjoy.
First of all, thank you for sharing this. I went step by step (vol up and down didn't work for me, tried power and vol up and device didn't show up in fast boot, did vol down and power and it showed up) then I flashed the image and it successfully flashed, when the device booted it still showed the 7.4.16 global stable Rom the vendor installed : /, I did it again and the same thing, the rom didn't change. could you please help/?
Sorry, I followed the steps exactly as described and it worked out perfectly, thank you very much, its just that when I pressed vol + and - I didn't see anything on the screen so I thought it wasn't working, miui 8 is nice indeed, could you explain how you installed the play store, the one on the Mi store is crashing on me.
it's a little tricky but there is a thread on here that should get you started. you have to use the Google installer and then update some Google components before you restart your phone.

6.6.23 is older (june 23)
6.7.7 is the newest sofar (July 7)
I use the weekly multi rom on my MI Max since its better tuned with translations and the china apps that I don't use are removed
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-7-7-11.32639/
the process for installing the new Version does not change with the newer miui8 6.7.7 so you're good to go with the same Instructions from OP.
Meanwhile on my Max I have boot loader unlocked and root. Works flawlessly with the new MIUI weekly Releases.

Thanks a lot for you experience sharing,
I was wondering maybe you solved this: i can't get whatsapp to run on this rom, even with all permissions given, whatapps and skype cant access my contacts. I got my contacts on the system using the old google installer apk which worked wonders except now i can't get past the looking for backup screen in whatsapp.
If anyone has ideas pls let me know and in the meanwhile i will try to flash other roms to see if one works..
I answered my own question playing with the settings. You have to register under accounts mi accounts to unable contact sync for all apps .... ? anyway it all works now!
BTW I have updated MUIU using http://en.miui.com/download-302.html#446 new dev rom and followed instructions.

Thanks heaps for the tutorial about installing Google Play services
By the way, can this rom you're talking about be flashed following the instructions by original poster?
Do I need to flash in first place the rom from original poster (MIUI 8 6.6.23) and then flash your new one (MIUI 8 6.7.14)?
Or can I flash directly latest one?

I can't tell you for sure but i think you have to use the instructions from the muiu site if you want the lastest dev rom.
1- I used OP instructions and links to install muiu 8
2- updated to last china dev rom following muiu site instructions.
3- installed all gapps stuff
PS if you want to ROOT, do this between 2 and 3: (unlocked boot loader)
1-Download SuperSu to root Xiaomi Mi Max and copy it to your phone sd card from this site: http://www.stechguide.com/root-install-twrp-recovery-xiaomi-mi-max/
2-Download xiaomi twrp flasher and use it to flash from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max/development/tool-xiaomi-twrp-flasher-mauronofrio-win-t3405207
3-Follow instructions from step 9 : http://www.stechguide.com/root-install-twrp-recovery-xiaomi-mi-max/

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
@GuilhermeXtreme is an excellent guy for his valuable support.
He tried his best to help me install CleanSTOCKLL and CLEANStockMM on my Asus Zoom device, but apparently the ROM supported by him is for ZOOA (ZE551ML)
My device is Z00X (ZX551ML)
Asus did a huge mistake (I assume) in naming roms for 2 different devices same.
On installing above ROMs which you have specified, mobile works fine but Mobile Network and Camera will not.
Infact @GuilhermeXtreme tried his best to help me for 2 days, to fix the issue.
At present I am on Stock Lollipop with stock recovery
(unrooted device)

Kernel:
2.6.32.9.-perf ....... [did not write the entire thing]
I never updated it ,
Now , I want
1.Make a Complete Recoverable Backup of my Current OS (2.3.4)
backup my original firmware , and stock OS . So that if in future i want to go back to it , i can just use that to go back . (i hope i am able to make you guys understand)
As far as my knowledge goes , i should need TWRP Recovery , or CWM Recovery or something similar . Correct me if i am wrong .
2.Unlock the Boot-loader and Root it.
3.Install Last Officially available update , Manually and Try it out
Which is the last officially updated version available ?
4.If i Like it then OK , if not then
i will Install other Custom ROMs or CM13
Q1. i heard that Many Custom ROMs dont have FM and Camera Functions ?
Which Custom ROM has all the functionality as the Stock One ?
and is based on most updated version of android ?
5.KERNEL.
I just CANT understand this one , please help me understand it
Does any of the above need the kernel to be replaced ? by some other kernel ?
I dont have much knowledge of kernel
...................................
Other Questions:
1.Why we are Flashing both .562 kernel .587 kernel one by one ?
Shouldn't we need only one ?
2. Can i update to Latest ICS via PC Companion and then root it ?
Will it affect anything ?
3.
Quote:
Disadvantages
1. Warranty is void..gone.. ---------- No Problem
2. You cannot update using PCC or SUES( if you try them..then u'll get a message saying that the software is modified and it wont proceed) ---------- No Problem since no update will come in future
3. No more DRM(Digital Rights Management)..things like Trackid, music like..etc - I like TrackID , but TrackID works with any mobile isnt it ? so what will change ? in Track ID ?
And which Custom ROMs require Unlocked Bootloader ?
Does CM Require it ?
Please help how can i do these and please educate me about kernel too .

I (still) own three of these phones: one MT11 and two MT15 models. They were good cheap phones. Sony is my favourite. Highly customizable. The dedicated forums are still available I think. The problem is that these phones don't have the ability to run modern applications. All the developers have moved on. If you don't need it as a daily use phone, it would be good to use it as a learning tool for flashing roms and skinning it. It takes a lot of time to read through all the posts. But the info is all there. Maybe someone will answer your questions sooner or later. Good luck with it.
U jst need to unlock ur bootloader and flash a custom kernel with recovey and flash ur desired rom ( there r some good one life miui v5 etc and aosp developement was prety good too at its time)
If u can manage to find the ftf files of orignal stock roms 2.3 & 4.04 u dont need to worry about any backup u can always roll backup to stock.
As far as my opinion go 2.3 is the best rom with good backup and smooth os battery suks on other roms.
Hope that answers ur questions
Currently my main problem is that the PC cant recognize the Mobile (Xperia Neo V)
the drivers that automatially got installed never gets installed without error and i still cant find out the reason , after a few tries now the dialogue box of installing drivers does not appear at all ,and the PC cant recognize my phone ,
Where can i get the best working drivers for Neo V ? (MT11i) ?
If any one of you have it please give a working set of drivers for PC Smartphone connectivity
and another odd thing that i noticed is that
the PC Companion that comes with the phone and gets installed when connected is
Basically as follows
Folders:
Languages - (28 Folders Inside)
Drivers - EMPTY
Graphics (2 Files - Graphics.zip, NewUI.zip)

Why is the DRIVERS folder Blank ?
I think it should not be blank

There should be a drivers folder in the flashtool folder. Give THIS thread a read too as you're trying to run before you've even learned to walk.
