If you have flashed the clockwork recovery then you need to revert back to the stock recovery via flashboot to install this update.

If you have not flashed clockwork recovery then just hold down both volume button, hold down power and when the recovery screen shows up select the second option.

Fine here over wifi.  I had that problem when I first got my streak, had to factory reset it.
Both recovery methods seem to go through the bootloader now and not direct so I guess it's flashing at least 4 of the partitions.  Means doing an update.zip blindly right off the bat for people to use might not be a good idea.
If you got clockwork recovery on the device you should be able to get it off and update.

Have the other basebands been updated? 00, 31? I've lost track of the latest ones.

Downloading, slowly.. maybe someone should torrent it!

Loving it, much faster, works fine. Seemed happy to install my 30 odd apps in one hit without slowing down.

One question though, are there alternate sources for animated wallpapers?

Universal Androot worked a treat on the new 2.1 firmware by the way!

Rebel users might be a bit upset when they update to this.
Nope, bit more screwing around than usual got it to work.
Going to head down the road to the local ambulance station.  Going past it always nukes the RS whenever I go past it in while in wcdma.

either o2 have updated the cell tower local to work, or the ril has had a big update on this..

I'm sitting with 2 bars of Hspa, never had that inside the building before, usually had to go 20m outside.

Am I right in thinking that if I renamed to Update.pkg and put it on the SD card, when installing it will wipe my Streak? I applied the earlier updates by downloading them through the Streak and my apps etc were left in place.

[courtlandre]

This update wiped my streak.

The Flash 10.1 apk for Android 2.1 installs but doesn't seem to work on the new update. Boo hiss!

How did you install it? Re-name it to update.pkg? I think I might wait out a bit and let it download on my Streak.

[courtlandre]

Downloaded it and let it install naturally as if dell sent the update.

[alfri68]

I buy dell streak in french.i dont understand if i can use di upgrade.6727.

Thank you for uploading and posting the link to the update. Infact, it is true that good thing awaits those who wait. This is the best thing to happen to my streak. I have upgraded to Eclair (2.1) this morning. My streak is so fast and sleek. No problems whatsoever, most of all no more "No Service" issue again. This update wipe your device though but it worths it. Don't forget to rename it as Update.pkg (capital U)
Eclair so sweet!
