Hi guys,

Could someone just confirm or dismiss, if they have managed to install this on a UK bought device? i.e. Not a beta device?

I've not got my Streak yet (should arrive tomorrow or Monday) and I just need to clarify in my own mind, before I either spending pointless hours trying to flash it or worse, brick it before I've even had it 24 hours.

Any help is appreciated.

TIA

I managed to flash it over the custom froyo from Stephen, version 1.11. Works fine, just didnt like it, so will wait for stephens next custom. Currently figuring out 1.3 and its not loading widgets.

I have no idea where to find fastboot.exe or how to flash the files, can anyone point me towards a real simple step-by-step procedure?

I just applied the files to 1.2.0 and no factory reset after

so far all seems well. (with some FC attempts that are from poking it too quickly while it was thinking)

ROM includes:

30 day trial of Co-pilot live

assisstant free (by pageonce)

dell video stage (streaming PPV movies)

evernote

zinio reader

launcher Pro (un-regged)

after install I dl'ed z4root and adw.launcher from market

ok, so...stupid question. what am i doing wrong here? fastbook is installed, in the path, and adb can see the device, but i'm getting the following. any ideas?

sog@apone:~/Applications$ fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

usage: fastboot [ <option> ] <command>

commands:

update <filename> reflash device from update.zip

flashall 'flash boot' + 'flash system'

flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition

erase <partition> erase a flash partition

getvar <variable> display a bootloader variable

boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] download and boot kernel

flash:raw boot <kernel> [ <ramdisk> ] create bootimage and flash it

devices list all connected devices

reboot reboot device normally

reboot-bootloader reboot device into bootloader

options:

-w erase userdata and cache

-s <serial number> specify device serial number

-p <product> specify product name

-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline

Raven, mine is (was lol) an O2 UK device with O2's 2.1 update 1 Stock Android Build 8105. Nothing added or taken away.

used the above with Fastboot and it works really well.

No need to worry as long as your ok with Fastboot but read this if your not >>>

Homeiss Guide

and this >>>

The Complete Guide XDA DEV LINK

But focus on the fastboot sections rather than update.zips

(not making out you don't know, just handy links for topic/thread readers, one's i've found over last few days of learning)

Installing fastboot is just a download and extract to a directory (I use C:\streak Computer-C drive-New Folder-streak)

Download .zip file, extract to C:\streak

Use code in this order>>>

fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn

fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

fastboot -i 0x413c flash system system.img

fastboot -i 0x413c reboot

Few mins later your up n running

then look for SuperOneClick or alternative

Job done...mild panic rather than total frustration like i've had over the last week lol

If i've missed anything out, sorry, i'm new to this too

-s <serial number> specify device serial number

-p <product> specify product name

-c <cmdline> override kernel commandline

Check the Fastboot files to see what it is called ...normally it Fastboot-windows

That's what you need to type if it is.

assuming fastboot is in C:\streak (easier to remember lol) (for me anyway as i'm thick)

C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413c flash amss amss.mbn

C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413c flash system system.img

C:\streak>fastboot -i 0x413c reboot

Should do it

If you get stuck on the dell logo try holding down the POWER BUTTON whilst PUTTING THE BATTERY back in and the COVER BACK ON B)

I wasn't stuck at the logo. My Streak was DEAD!! The method worked though!

Tried this. Doesn´t help. My streak will not boot...

Greetings vlamers

Keep trying. I had to do it over and over. It finally worked on mine.

sorry, should have specified that i'm using fastboot on Linux (Ubuntu, specifically).

instructions i used are here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/324...ss-storage.html

Has anyone gotten this to work when starting from stock Dell 1.6?

Guest sogrady

Linux commard is

fastboot flash amss amss.mbn

same for the other files also

might be fastboot-linux

thanks for the command syntax! that hangs, unfortunately, on < waiting for device >.

which makes me suspect that the udev rules i'm using from the other post are incorrect. if i can find out what they're supposed to be, maybe i'll get this to work yet B)

Is this method works for My AT&T 1.6 Rooted Streak?

No it won't. You need to be on DJ_Steve's 1.3 or you will have start all over by flashing 4399 and go from there.

Great, but this version is very slow.

quadrant = 738... 43 fps max

neocore = 35 fps.

This version can be installed on 2.2 v1.1.1.

I tried holding the On button down while inserting the battery and putting the back cover on, did it about half a dozen times - still stuck on the Dell logo.

Does anyone have any other suggestions??

fastboot -i 0x413c flash boot boot.img

fastboot -i 0x413c flash system system.img

ill be updating my build with things off this one also soon

Is this the same one you give us http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Public%20Upl...system-boot.zip ? I am using this one, and found in system information matching to the official of DELL.

Waiting for your build based on Dell Official Build.

Thanks,

Dude, that's awesome thanks for the info, I'm coming from a Desire which, whilst a bit more complicated than all the WinMo phones I had before it, it's still a damn sight less confusing than the Streak seems to be.

I'm looking forward to getting it though, I normally live over at XDA but something tells me I'm going to be over here just as much now, so even though I've had an account here for 3 years... Hello all, I'm new here B) ha ha ha

Thanks again guys for answering my question.
