Everything seems ok, not much is different from the older build, but it feels snappier. The Modaco Root method also works fine with this ROM.

4917
Yeah i was getting around to testing that tomorrow. Any better?
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: signature verification failed
any idea????
Do you have modacos custom recovery installed? That seems to break it.
Tried 4917 last night, had stock dell rom not rooted and got the same as zandrzejz, got about half way stopped got the same error then rebooted.
4399 seems fine, it does seem a little smoother bur it wasnt slow to start with so hard to tell
Will have to give this a go results to follow
Don't see any difference with 4399
Probably just minor differences. Remember this wasn't an official release it was found on the Dell servers.
4917 seems to be for a different baseband devices (last digits ending at 31). Quite possible it is for the US version, as the EU version for the baseband ends in 21.
So it seems for now 4399 is the latest and greatest so far

Nice find. Have just updated, and very glad to see no settings were lost.
How do i update says your device is already has the latesr but its not can i manual update?
i wish i had a streak to update. i hope that july 14/15 date is true!!!!
Could someone give me an honest feedback on dell streak. I live in the u s and we don't have it yet. I love my nexus 1 so much i'm scared if dell streak can do the job at 1.6..
Does it have voice entry? I just used voice entry to type this message....

Branded ROM?
Is this update a branded update..I am one of the few who has a unlocked dell US streak. I would like to update but don't want to get anything messed up.
Thanks,
Marty
The o2 branding is still there on my streak after the 4399 update. But I don't think the update changed any of that section of rom. It looks more like a hot fix to me.
Going to have a look at it in a bit

Thanks Fards
Thank you for the quick response. Android is a new thing for me. I come from WinMo. Flashing a ROM and radio is a 3-4 time a week thing over there. I thought I would try out android and what better device! Any good tips?
Thanks,
Marty

Anybody tried this ? http://dellstreakhacks.com/how-to-install-flash-10-1-on-android-2-1-eclair-devices-dell-streak.html
I have tried it on mine and it doesn't seem to work - unless I am doing it incorrectly....
If you ready they are stating that it is running 2.2 (froyo)
Complete Bulls**t
The article is misleading. It does install, but it won't play flash on your browser. Or at least not on mine. So technically what the article states is true.
Yep I am boycotting that site from now on
It seems like the Dell Streak (aka Mini 5) has already ran Flash 10.1
I came across this link: h ttp://jaxov.com/2010/03/flash-10-1-preview-on-dell-mini-5-tablet/
As you can see it is running full 10.1 flash very smothly, just like my Nexus one. Not sure if it is running android 1.6 but I tend to think it is running 2.2 looking at the status bar.

I believe that the flash you see in that video was still in beta and so could run on any android versions. After it came out of beta you could only run it with froyo, maybe because of the tactics of adobe and google. Technically, I can't seem to find the reason why it would not run on other android versions, but that's just my thoughts.
Flash must also work on 2.1 because I already had a 2.1 build for my hd2 with flash working completely but I have no idea how they did it! Maby they had cooked it into the rom?!

The embedded froyo 2.2 that comes with qdl too, does that work perfectly fine and flawless with AT&T dell streak? or are there some things that just don't work on there?
I have an ATT Streak and used QDL with no issues. After playing with it for a while, I took the plunge and upgraded to DJ_Steve's Streakdroid 1.5.1
If you want the best from your device...I suggest you do the same, but make sure you do your homework....search is your friend!
Meh I havent rolled to the sreakdroid rom yet lol. Im still rocking out the stock. And I think its fairly smooth.

Used the stock software for a while and thought it was decent. Went to DJ Steve's 1.5.1 and realized how misguided I actually was. It turned what I thought was a worthless device on 1.6 and a decent device on 2.2 to absolute phone/tablet nirvana on DJ Steve's 1.5.1. I will never use AT&T stock software ever again for any purpose. It's shameful that they can spend such massive amounts of time with the resources they have and only come up with that while DJ Steve can work in his free time and come up with something that rapes AT&T development. Shameful.

certainly not trying to defend the Death Star here, but thought I might correct your thinking...
ATT doesnt make roms
Perhaps not, but they sure are damn good at delaying them, and then removing features (tether) and then making up for it with useless bloat that sometimes can't be removed without cooking up your own ROM anyway...
F U AT&T
I am just glad I took the plunge with the QDL method and didn't wait for the "official" from them. It has been pushed back to January now. I am using the "stock" 2.2 and not sure I am going to Steve's, even though I appreciate his efforts VERY much.
QDL is automated? Sounds good. Does your GPS work on AT&T? Specifically with navigation in Google Maps.
Use QDL, then update from 309 (which is what is on qdl?) to the 318 version, which for me was much faster than 309

I have updated to the posted 2.2 (318) rom and everything went perfectly. I originally updated with QDL first and then to 318 (QDL put on a strange build I could not locate in searches).
Everything is good (I don't like stage ui thought), Except. . . the bluetooth dial app does not "hear" anything or it is just plain broken. I can use voice dial with the phone alone, but if I connect the bluetooth and do the long press (Jawbone Icon) to get to voice dialing, it starts up and either crashes (force close) or it sits there "listening" until it times/errors out.
The error is LogService has stopped working process (com.oem)
I have seen posts on other forums from people with different phones having the same issues but NO fix or work around.
It seems to me it must be something in the hook between the bluetooth service and the voice dial app.
Maybe someone has found a fix or a working replacement for voice dial that works over bluetooth, assuming its the app and not the bluetooth services.
sad owner of Dell Streak Droid 1.6 now happy 2.2 thanks to XDA Dev
I was ready to return my streak back to bestbuy until a friend of my show me this site. he uses an HTC so he is very good at Droid, Im a newbie by the way. Just switch from iPhone 4 to Dell Streak and Im not coming back. I was tired of waiting for Dell update so we decided to try to get the 2.2 from UK and Oh! man, we were amaze how this new software works on my Streak. I love it! Thanks guy! now you have a new member. by the way Im a business owner of a pc place Im also a computer programmer and Technology guru so I'll be sending many people your way. Thanks again.
Glad you kept it! I was pretty happy with 1.6, but when at&t/Dell opted to "delay" the 2.2 update (I think it was more at&t than Dell), I said screw it, let's give it a try. Updated to v309, then got v318 on and it's like a completely different device!
just done flashing. not sure which path to go.. official Dell 2.2 or Dj 1.5.2.
Dell is easier but heard Dj is a cool one.
I'm on 309, haven't update to 318 yet.
What are the benefits really?
Bug fixes mainly.

My girlfriend's Droid is running an older version of Bionix, I think it's 1.7 or something close to it (2.1-update1, Kernel version 2.6.29, Build number ECLAIR.UVJI6) and keeps getting a notification that an update is ready from T-Mobile. I haven't been following Android news so I don't know if this is the 2.2 update (or if the 2.2 update is even out for her phone yet), or just an update to 2.1 or what, but it's driving her nuts. Even when she postpones it it sends her several texts a day, and the max she can postpone it is 24 hours. Is there anyway to get rid of this notification? Custom ROMs for my Droid would do this by default, so I'm clueless how to fix it.
Secondly, she likes this ROM a lot, but it's about 3 months old now, have there been any major changes in current ROMs that would warrant me upgrading her phone? She is content with it as is, and I have a hard time hacking the Vibrant for some reason, though I never had any problems with my Droid. Basically what I'm saying here is, I WILL upgrade it if there's anything worth upgrading it for. Thanks in advance for any help with these questions!
Wait till bionix frost comes out and then re-flash her phone

One thing I've learned when updating the wifes stuff: if it aint broke, dont fix it. If shes happy with the way it is. Leave it. Upgrading to a better version she might not notice is onl going to cause you a headache. Some app isnt playing nice with new build, some small bug in the rom, etc. It's your funeral!

There are a lot of 2.2 roms out there in the development section that are running 2.2 roms so smooth and fast and with bloatware removed. Try Bionix or Axura or Trigger. You don' t have to wait for ota froyo. My friend's phone did the ota update and it' s full of bugs

Can't believe I typed 'my girlfriend's droid' in the first post, I hate when people refer to every Android phone as a 'droid', and I just did it myself, LOL. Anyway, thanks for the input guys. I'll probably wait until someone builds a 2.2 rom from source and upgrade her.
So there's no way to get rid of this upgrade notification? That sucks.

2.2 better then 2.1
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
I updated to 2.2 as well, but I downloaded the update.zip and loaded it to my SD card in recovery mode to install. Works like a charm.
I got a bit bored of waiting on the UK 2.2 release, not sure when it's coming out.
Anyway, I went the down the 2.3 route with CM7, and very happy with it.
A question I was going to ask before, but never did, is, if you were on 2.1 and went to 2.2 via the official route, would you still be able to update to 2.3 with CM7?
I'm wondering whether Motorola would lock the phone down further to try and prevent it.
Hi, no need to worry, you can update to cm7 without any problems.
Motorola understands that we don't want to be locked out of our phones.
The carriers are the ones who make motorola doing this locked bootloader thing.

Anyone else retaining their 2.2.2 virginity, until the "right one" comes along?

what are you guys worried about? how do you know if you right one if you dont try it?
im pretty sure ken's 2.3.4 is same as the official update thats coming, it doesnt have my testing and debug apps that are found on beta releases. if anything the "official update" from ATT is going to have more bloat and handicaps.
I'm keeping mine at 2.2.2 until the official update comes out. I know there is a slight chance it could brick and have bugs if I update to the beta build of GB.

I got my atrix about 4 days ago, and I love it. I rooted it and installed gingerblur on the 2nd day, I liked it better than the stock ROM, but then I messed up something with the messaging app (I was transferring my texts from my iPhone to Atrix, needless to say it didnt work) so I had to do a factory reset on my atrix. I did that and then Atrix no longer showed "H+" it just showed H, and the data didnt really work for some reason, so on the second night I had to flash back to stock rom.
I am just going to wait for the official release and then upgrade, I want to enjoy my atrix without a problem lol.
Btw when the official release does come and when we upgrade do we loose everything on our current phone ?
Running 2.2.2, GingerBlur.
All the permabricks going around got me worried.
Can I still OTA running GingerBlur once the official AT&T with unlocked BL comes out or do I have to revert back to a stock AT&T rom?
NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've got a Bell Atrix right now so I need to wait until something extremely reliable comes along before I toss it on for my daily driver. We can unlock our bootloader using 2nd init but it doesn't go without a flurry of bugs.
Very much appreciate the work all the devs have done, but unless I've got an AT&T Atrix I'm going to sit tight for now. Almost traded my friend his AT&T Atrix for my Bell Atrix (I sold him the AT&T one) but the current bugs in the ROMs are still a tiny bit too much. The hacked kernels are extremely alluring though!
I'm new to flashing moto style (done HTC, samsungs before) and my atrix is still very new, so going to hold off for now. Would prefer to start from a nice clean stock gingerbread + stock unlockable bootloader (ie fastboot oem unlock) baseline.
All those bricking references in the various leaked /beta ROM threads are definitely worrying. Gotta say too the much smaller dev/hacking community is totally noticeable, information appears much more scattered and newbie unfriendly relative to HTC/samsung threads, there are few authorative 'this is the 'official' way to do XYZ' sources. So still lurking and reading
I'm waiting for the official OTA. On stock 2.2.2+root+sideloading and it works fine for me. I'm looking forward to a stable CM build for the Atrix though .
Wow. Scared much?? Its really not that bad....

I've still got 2.2.2, mainly because I'm waiting for CM7 or something else a bit more stable. I was almost always the first to put ken's P-roms on my atrix, but for flashing an sbf, I want to wait a bit until they're all out of "beta".
Scared? No.
Waiting for a 1.0? yes.
