Use that link on your streak to download the latest official released build from Dell/AT&T once downloaded click on it to install. Or go to settings and system update to see if it will get it OTA.

Thank you! Do I install it from the computer via program or from the phone via sim card?
I'm new at this so pardon the questions. Is there a guide to doing this step by step?
Download that to ur memory card
Turn off the phone
Go to recovery mode ( press both vol button and start button )
list of 4 options
press and leave camera button.
After flashing the new rom, it will factory reset , so u will loose all data. So make a back up.

Again, I'm new at this.
Where on the memory card do I put the .pkg ?
How is the best way to do a backup of my data?
Just go to that link in the browser. It will start downloading. Once downloaded on your phone click the notification window that shows you it downloaded. That should start the install process.
You will need to be on wifi for this as the download is big.
You can also try doing this on your phone... Dial *#*#checkin#*#*
That will force your phone to check in to the update server. You might get the notification there. let me know if you have any other questions.

Is this the link your talking about?
http://mobileupdate.dell.com/Package...0_14844_31.pkg
Now... I go to that link with my phone, not the computer?
I have that file saved on my computer. I thought I would then place it somewhere on the sim card?
What does Dial *#*#checkin#*#* do? Is that where I check for updates on the Streak? Do I try that first?
If you download it to the computer then put it on the phone you have to then rename it to update.pkg then go into recovery and manually flash it. If you download out on the phone you should be able to just click it once downloaded and it will start the upgrade.
The check in code forces the phone to checkin with the update server to see if there is an os update. If you do the checkin code wait a few minutes to see if you get the update notification. All AT&T streaks should get the notification to upgrade to 2.2 as it was released earlier this year.

I don't know the "exact" procedure to doing the above... so I think I'll try your 3rd method below first, then if that don't work, do it from the phone and if all else fails, from the computer. I will try this this afternoon.

If you cant get it by downloading straight from the phone let me know and I can take you through the process to do it manually. I actually have an unlocked streak but I know all US at&t users should have gotten the update ota?

I've been reluctant to try for fear of bricking my phone.
I guess tomorrow I'll suck it up and try it.
I'd be happy with 1.6 if I could get the usb / modem to work on it... but....
I decided to wait until after the 22nd when my 30 days are up with the phone.
If I can't get the Streak to work as a modem via USB by then, I will take it back.
Now updated to 2.2

Did like you said, downloaded it from the phone. It was really easy!

Thanks for your time on this too!
No problem. I am still working on the usb tethering myself. I'll let you know.

Extremely strange an advance phone like this one is so hard to tether via usb!
My last 6 phones (in my sig) were EASILY tethered via usb.
Shame on you Dell!!!
They don't even have the requrired driver for their own streak on their support page... I spent an hour trying, yet you can find the driver needed here:

Shame on you Dell!!!
I would have not gotten this phone had I known it was going to be so hard to do that.

go ahead and do the update, or not?. My phone is unrooted, lagfix installed, GPS runs good and so is AP mobile. Everything works flawlessly. I heard/read and saw lots of people have problem with the OTA update. Do i miss anything if i don't do this update? I am thinking of waiting until the Froyo release. I know to do the update, I should remove lagfix, ext 2. My main concern is the availability of AP Mobile after update? Any advices. Thanks.
You may run into issues if you install it with the MobileAP mod.
There's a new version of MobileAP that supports JI6 just fine - you'll just have to reapply that new version from the MobileAP thread after the update. Be sure you undo the lag fix first or you'll be in a world of hurt.
The OTA may fail on your phone even so, but it's easy to flash the JI6 update via ODIN and get everything working again.
Thanks for the replies. The only thing I don't know how to flash using odin.

I used the OCLF, which was an easy one-button undo. I'm not sure about what needs to be done to undo any of the other lagfixes.. maybe those threads have the answers.

OK. I removed OCLF and EXT2, then go ahead and do the update. However, during the update process, the % bar 0-100%, near the end when it reached 100%, I got a prompt "update failed, your fone will reboot". Now, looks like I am stuck at the boot screen (Vibrant and SAMSUNG screen). What should i do now?
One thing though, I was able to put the phone in the Download mode (volume up/down, pwr button). But when i select re-install packages, i got message "no update.zip file on sdcard". Is it ok if i put "update.zip" file on the SD card (root) and reinstall? Will this restore the phone? Thanks.
I ran into the same thingwhen I tried to install the ota update...ended up having to reflash...i just don't think its worth it to update....if it isn't broke don't fix it...lol

(first hit found when searching for mobileap)
Edit: I didn't go to page 2.. thanks JD for answering the same question before me
I just got the OTA update and I was rooted and OCLF lag fixed with clockwork installed and wireless tether installed.
After the update I was still rooted, lag fix still worked (quadrant about 2300~ or so) and wireless tether just worked.
To be honest I don't like the update becase of crap running in the background and the new task killer administers vacuum to genital organs of decayed donkeys...but it all went smooth.
I'm even tethered to the phone now
Firstly tried the new update, and it wouldnt install, clicked the update now button after download, the phone instantly rebooted. Then got to the dell logo and just stuck there, was there for about half hour so took battery out and rebooted. Phone worked fine. So thought it might be that the phone was footed so backed up and did a factory reset, update still did the same. Anyway now ive restored all my stuff back onto normal 2.2 stock. My contacts from sim wont import, it finds them then I click import all it does the bar progression thing, but when it finishes it, they dont show up.
Anyone got any ideas?
Also on why the update wont take?
Cheers for the help

umm its normal for it to show the android guy with the ! with int he triangle. jsut let it install and get root again with ginger break. let it finish do not interrupt it while it is updating. let it reboot by it self.
There are numerous threads in development that tell you how to flash to the 1.57 sbf file. Then I went to the motorola website and did the update to 1.83 from there.

as ive said before. If you are having problems rooting or think its not working try to put your phone in charge only mode under usb. Bet that will fix it for you.

1. Go to Settings/Application/development menu and make sure that USB debugging is checked
2. Open Notification screen by swipe down from the top of the screen, you should see USB connection. Choose that and make sure choose "Charge Only" and click OK
3. Download Superuser from Market and install it on your phone.
4. go to Settings/Display/Screen Timeout and choose never
5. Download drivers, ADB packages, Root files from the link below and extract them to your C drive under Root directory (C:\Root). Then just follow the direction of the link below to root your phone.
http://briefmobile.com/how-to-root-motorola-photon-4g
If you follow the direction correctly, If i remember correctly at the last step your phone Superuser application should popup and ask you to allow the root process to access root. Click OK then you are root
I'm a new guy here so if this needs to be directed somewhere else please let me know.
I have an AT&T HTC One M7 and it is apparently not receiving updates. I am still on 4.3 and my phone never received the update to 4.4.2 back in February when it released in the US. Now that Sense 6 is officially out I haven't received that yet either but it just came out yesterday. When I go to AT&T Software Update it immediately says there's no updates available and will check again in 48 hours. I've tried the trick of changing the date on my phone which didn't work either. I spoke with AT&T and they claim they have no way to push the update to my phone and that I should get it replaced. I chose not to because I had HTC fix the camera sensor(pink hue issue) and the phone is now rock solid. I've been searching on this forum on how to update my phone using the OTA update because I like the stock firmware with Sense and want to keep it but it's information overload here. Threads with over 100 pages of replies with no real clear walkthroughs. Does anyone know how to somehow force the update to show up on my phone? If not, can someone direct me to where I can download the OTA update?
Any help would be appreciated.
Never mind! Figured out it was my Sim card. Put my wife's card in and it downloaded immediately.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app
My wife's is doing the same thing, except the SIM card swap didn't work either. I tried to load it through stock recovery, but that didn't work either. AT&T doesn't have any answers, and I've reset the phone three times with no success. It did the same thing with 4.4, but I figured it was a system wide issue due to others not being able to receive it.
