Guest PaulVlagsma Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) My post #200 was with 2.2. Do # adb shell # cd /data # rm -r * before reboot. (fastboot erase data does NOT work - sorry it was late at night) Use logcat to see what's happening, reboot a couple of times.

Guest spences10 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) My post #200 was with 2.2. Add fastboot -i 0x413c erase data before reboot. Use logcat to see what's happening, reboot a couple of times. Awesome, congratulations PaulVlagsma!! I will be trying this when I get home from work. Everyone else trying this> take a look at PaulVlagsma notes Froyo is on the Streak - umm - qsd8250_surf Used spences10's 'fastboot' method post #184 plus fastboot -i 0x413c erase data with the 2.2/boot.img and builds/system.img, post #157 booted a couple of times, and now it works. I had to chmod 644 /etc/dbus.conf, because I was getting W/libdbus ( 1474): Failed to start message bus: Failed to open "/etc/dbus.conf": Permission denied *) Also I only have portrait mode, with the top near the 3 led's. *) Phone works, I can hear on the Streak, but microphone is not working. No data. Incoming calls - does not ring - can be picked up - again no mic. *) Linpack 33.175 Great stuff, Stephen.

Guest rhyd Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Just got 2.2 up and running too, it took me a few attempts, so I'll summarise where I went wrong which will hopefully help others that are stuck. I was running on a build 8105 before I started, not rooted. First attempt at installation using fastboot got me stuck at the logo. I tried "fastboot -i 0x413c erase data" which did nothing - files were still showing in File Explorer. Next attempt was to root using Superboot then erase data through fastboot again - files were still showing so gave up on the fastboot erase data idea. Next attempt: adb shell cd /data rm -r * That seemed to reduce errors in LogCat, but was getting dbus errors so: adb shell cd /etc chmod 777 dbus.conf And I was in! First successful boot, only part of the screen was showing, so couldn't unlock. Powered off, stuck my SIM card in and rebooted and it fired up the setup wizard which eventually got me in. Just taken the SIM card back out, rebooted, and get the unlock slider showing as expected. So far all I've tested is installing my own app (which loaded fine), and a test phonecall (sound via speaker on the back, no mic etc). Thanks to Stephen Hyde and all the other suggestions :lol: Hopefully I'll be able to make myself useful at some point too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did that method actually delete the files in /data? It didn't for me, so I did it manually through adb shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen Hyde Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 it should do it provided innersd is mounted on /data as it should be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tacoman667 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 it should do it provided innersd is mounted on /data as it should be You are working on the .29 kernel but I see someone else working on a .35 version. Would that fix some of these issues you are having getting things to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rhyd Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 it should do it provided innersd is mounted on /data as it should be I think we may have crossed wires here - your method works (cd /data, rm -r *), but fastboot -i 0x413c erase data doesn't do anything (which is what I think you said in the first place - fastboot doesn't erase the inner sd card).

I cant get my Streak past the Dell logo. I can get down as far as "chmod 777 dbus.conf" but from that i get "unable to chmod dbus.conf: Operation not permitted" Any ideas?
