hey guys i got my dell a streak a few weeks ago and i love it i am happy with it but the keyboard is really bad and i do alot of typing on it so i decided to upgrade to 2.1 to get a better keyboard and a few other things .

this is what i did and has worked

1.Assuming you don't already have it, download the Android SDK. Unzip it and put it wherever you want. You won't be installing anything so don't worry; you just need the fastboot.exe sitting on your computer.

2.Install Dell PC Suite if you don't already have it.

3.Download the stock recovery ROM and the stock Dell ROM from the links provided at MoDaCo.

4.Rename the Dell ROM Update.pkg and move it to the root directory of the Streak's microSD card.

5.Put the recovery ROM in the C:\ directory on your computer.

6.Turn off the Streak. Hold down the camera button while pressing the power button to turn it back on.

7.Tap the "Fastboot" button that will appear in the top-right corner of the screen.

8.Wait for about 10 seconds (you'll see "Wait for USB Fastboot detect" in the bottom-left corner of the screen in the meantime) and connect the Streak to your computer.

9.When "Fastboot_Mode" appears on the Streak's screen, open a command prompt on your computer. In Windows, you can do this by typing cmd in the Start

Menu's search bar and hitting Enter.

10.Navigate to the folder where fastboot.exe (from the Android SDK) is by using the cd command.

11.Once you're in the right place, type fastboot.exe -i 0x413c flash recovery c:\recovery.stock.img and hit Enter.

12.When you see "Download RECOVERY Done!" on the Streak, remove the back cover and pull out the battery.

13.Replace the battery and back cover. Hold the volume up and down buttons down while pressing the power button and choose option 2 from the menu that will appear.

EVERYTHING GOES GOOD UP TO HERE

THEN WHEN I HIT THE VOLUME AND THE POWER BUTTON

i select option two "software upgrade via Update.pkg on sd card

then it asks to press the shutter button to start emergency software recovery then i get this error on the bottom

E: no signature

E: verification failed

PLEASE ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT JUST DONT KNOW WHAT IM DOING WRONG I AM STILL STUCK ON 1.6 THE DEVICE IS NOT BRICKED OR ANYTHING
