Opps 2.1 on Dell streak

Recently I am going through almost all the post regarding Dell streak. And at Madaco there was this newbie who claimed to have 2.1 on his streak ( now that sound funny), a newbie with 2.1 lol  anyways I think almost everyone including some senior members may I include Paul as well  have given him hard time .Finally every one asked him to post the pictures of his streak and guess what he posted his dell streak.
Everyone’s jaws are still on floor
Here is the link http://android.modaco.com/content/d...-2-1-for-streak-is-coming-closer-than-before/
Sorry for being sarcastic
Edit Just checked it this guy even said i have Built 6267 1.6, he put pics of that as well
http://android.modaco.com/content/dell-streak-streak-modaco-com/314140/new-rom-v-6267/
I think this guy is 2 steps ahead from all of us or may be 3 people who are still on 3xxxx
He said he has a friend who is working on the Streak development team. Seems pretty legit to me.
Don't count on him leaking it though as he "doesn't want to ruin his friends career", which is pretty good of him tbh. I don't think i'd have that level of self control

Considering the Dell Streak Development team consists of about 8 people, don't you think it would be Dell's priority to see which dev's friend is leaking images? They did say they are active on websites concerning the Streak.
I wouldn't have that level of self control. Release it please!

That is the great thing about HTC their images leak on purpose.... Dell is not handling this well at all, but what choice do we have for a 5" device?
Dell Streak "UI Team" has 8 people. His contact could be someone from one of many, many people working on the Streak.
why do the only allow six icons on 2.1
Creating system.img for 2.1, is it possible?
Is it possible to create a system.img based on 2.1 or 2.2 from android sources for Dell Streak? Has anybody tried it? I don't need the Google propietary parts, just to OSS part...
Has anybody tried? Any reference docs for it?
Thanks in advance,

I'm trying it now again, now I'm back..
I'm trying the codearoura git, basic instructions on their site..
https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/
also have a look at the cyanogenmod wiki for some decent building instructions, that can be adapted.
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Building_from_source
plus theres this
http://pdk.android.com/online-pdk/guide/build_system.html
so far not playing nicely, and progress is hampered because I can't get fastboot boot to work (which is a way of temporarily flashing a kernel and ramdisk) so I have to manually flash the boot.img every time it doesnt boot.

[Q] How does the dell streak lock actually work?

So I bought my PayG Streak from 02 the other day.
I knew it was locked to 02 but I figured someone smart enough here would find an unlock.
I have the mental capacity to take on such a task myself but Ive never attempted it before.
I put a T-mobile sim into my streak and it asks for network unlock but if i Hit cancel it takes me straight into my fully working phone (bar the sim).
So my question is, How is the Dell streak locked? Is it via a chip or piece of hardware inside the device? or is it purely based on the ROM side of things?
Considering I can get into the phone and use wifi etc without the sim would it be possible to create a bit of software that executes and enables the sim to work? every time you reboot the device per say).
And Is anyone in here actually working on this? I'd like to know to share idea's on exploiting the device to allow any sim.

Checked and there is nothing regarding unlocking Dell Streak.
Just spam from spences10
PS: admins delete please this advertisement.
No it doesn’t say anything about unlocking the DELL Streak but it does explain the difference between ‘root’ and ‘carrier unlock’ maybe I should have been a bit more specific in my reply, I am in no way affiliated with www.theunlockr.com and was just trying to be helpful as I recall an explanation between the two on there.
I could only put up the main site as that is all I could remember if it wasn’t any help next time try this www.Google.com

Hang on a minute youth, thats a bit harsh! If you go to 'Unlock my phone' they tell you they can unlock almost and phone. Its definately not spam! Its definately worth a try contacting these guys to see what they can do for us Streak owners.
Well done spences10, thanks for contributing to the community

[Q] Help: about Streak system language

Firstly, I heard from someone that some US version Streak has the "chinese" in local language option...so I wonder if I can do something to achieve this function??? My Streak is UK(unlock) version...
many thanks for the comments in advance!
I am also looking at for the same thing I have a UK sim free Streak and I would like chinese on it too.
I was surprised by not having it. It should be a standard like the iphone.
Yes, I'm really sad that may have to wait for the “ROM”。。。

Dell Streak 7

I recently got a Dell Streak 7 and was wondering if the recoveries/ROMs from the dev section are usable for both devices? I apologise if this has been asked, search function is down right now
Nope, completely different animals.
You need to go to the Streak 7 forum and they have all you need there
Yeah, of course I find that forum about 10 minutes after this post, sorry guys.

[Q] Dell Venue WP7?

Hi there!
I've been asked myself a question and now I'd like to hear some of your ideas about can Dell Venue run WP7 instead of Android?
I'm really interested in this question.
So, if it's so, maybe someone could port firmware from Venue Pro to Venue.
Waiting for your answers
Interesting question. I also realized that DVP and DV has the very very similar hardware info! So, I also wonder whether we can install WP7/7.5 in this Venue!
