Guest TheRain Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 if you download the build.prop file from another post in this thread and put it in systems folder and reboot.. your camera should work.. i've tested this about 3 times and its worked each time. Thanks! That cured it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mrmrmrmr Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Actually not true. The latest DELL PC Suite works just fine. It's very quick compared to the previous version. It does exactly what it needs to do which is to synchronise microsoft outlook's calendar, notes, tasks and contacts with the Streak perfectly. For those of us who use Outlook to run our businesses, Dell PC Suite is essential. really ? does it really work ? and the "outlook tasks" , "outlook notes" are working ? that's superb. please confirm :) I hardly believe because Stephen has told that they don't...

Guest pjg_pigeon Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I have entered this info now and rebooted still no luck. Not sure if its important I deleted the only two other (payandgo) options one of which was the default option. There now seems no way to set a default option now, no green radio button appears. The defaults listed in the example has no entry for "server" or "authentication type" this are listed as " not set" Anyone got any suggestions ? http://www.mydellmini.com/forum/streakdroi...tings-data.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest amacrobie Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Co-Poilot 8 does not work so not sure if the GPS is ok (just tried Google maps and it found my location with GPS) Have used my froyo'd streak with CoPilot 8 (latest ver downloaded from market) with euro maps for a solid 5 hours today, no problems getting a lock and worked perfectly all the way to my destination and back. Only issue I had was with camera and replacign build.prop and clearing dalvik cache worked great for me. Don't have a sim in at the moment (use it as a "pure" tablet, but certainly have fonud the indicated signal strength for wifi to fluctuate very badly, seems to work okay, just suspect the strength of signal is being misreported. Am sat abtou 6 feet from my access point at the moment and getting between one and full bars ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest andycqos Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 Ive connected and synced fine with Touchdown. New emails come in as normal but, as I thought before, when I mark them read on the PC - and then sync Touchdown - they still show as unread on the phone. Not the end of the world I guess Scrub that. They have now marked themselves as read. Just took a little longer than I thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest strvmarv Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 DJ Steve, I know I've said this before, but you are the man, big thanks for spending your free time doing what Dell refuses to do. For all we know they're going to swipe what you've done, bloat-it, and re-release it as "theirs" :). I'd like to see Engadget or Giz whip up an article about your efforts as well. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw one next week. I have a couple not-so-important questions: How hard, or what challenges are facing us US Streaker's not wanting to flash the UK baseband but wanting Froyo at this point? I don't like the idea of flashing the 21 baseband again to get 2.1 and then to install Froyo...with my luck they'll be a real US ROM available by the time I'm done and it's a reasonable pain to flash the baseband back (there's several good posts about it here and on XDA). Are we stuck waiting on Dell or Qualcomm for a baseband, or is there something that can be achieved now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest craigdabbs Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 great work steve, updated without a hitch :) A couple of points to note, when searching in market in portrait mode i am unable to scroll down on the resultes untill i go into landscape and back to portrait. Not a big problem tho. Im on O2 uk and needed to input my apn settings manually to get mobile data working Also im just wondering if you managed to find why the streak is using landscape as its native orientation, im using launcher pro + atm and turning off the auto rotate puts me into landcape like previous builds. Keep up the good work, a few beers on the way Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
