I have :
Baseband Version : GAUSB1A134700-US
Kernel Version : 2.6.32.9-perf
OEM Version : GAUSB1A134700
Build Number : 15247
Stock Android : 2.2.2
Now frankly speaking i do not know about any of those numbers mentioned above !!
I bought the phone a week back. The phone is really laggy in homescreen i.e. for dell stage.
There is a performance fix mentioned in the streak forum, I read like 35-40 pages of the thread also : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848487
but this is my first android phone and so i am a complete newbie, I also tried to read the How to root your android thread, but could not understand how to actually do a root ! PLEASE HELP ME !
I DO NOT WANT TO INSTALL ANY CUSTOM COOKED VERSION OF ANDROID, ALL I WANT IS TO INSTALL THAT PERFORMANCE FIX, BUT DONT HAVE EVEN A SINGLE CLUE HOW TO GO ABOUT IT, READ MY PHONE SPECIFICATIONS AND PLEASE HELP ME AND MODERATOR OR SENIOR MEMBER PLEASE HELP !!
There is no performance fix for the 347 (GAUSB1A134700-US) ROM. The only real option for you is to update to ROM 351, which is an official update from Dell. However, if you do that you will have an app called Oovoo in your notification bar on every restart of the phone. It is possible to temporarily shut Oovoo down by going into the phone's settings, tapping on applications, tapping Oovoo and selecting "Force Close", if you don't reboot your phone often. A permanent solution however is only possible by rooting the phone.
EDIT: 351 doesn't have a performance fix either, so don't look for it.
okay,
thanks for such a quick reply !
and anyways when i connect my phone to wifi and then check for updates it says no update found for your phone !
so even then there is no 351 for me still
I had a 347 phone and I never received the update. I simply downloaded it from Dell's website when I knew it had arrived because I knew how to set up the URL to get to it. If you go into the XDA wiki, in the Dell Streak section there is a list of ROM packages. You can get the 351 update package from there.
Now, to do the job, if you are unsure how.
(Source: Radimus' Guide to the Dell Streak (a highly recommended read))
1. Download the build you would like to install.
2. Rename it to update.pkg and transfer it to your SD card.
3a. Shut down the Streak.
3b. Hold the volume up and volume down buttons while powering on the phone. This will place the phone into recovery mode.
4. Using the volume keys to navigate and the camera button to select, select option 2. Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD card.
5. You will be presented with a warning screen telling you to press the shutter button (camera) to continue or volume down to power off.*
6. Press the shutter and you should see a progress bar. After this completes you will see the Dell logo and after 5-10 minutes your device will load into your new Android build.
*If you get an error telling you to insert an SD card with a valid update.pkg then mount your SD card on your PC and check to see if the update.pkg is actually there. You may need to copy it over again. If you continue to get this error then you will need to reflash the stock recovery using fastboot and try again.
The only thing I recommend doing differently is if it's necessary to reflash the stock recovery, I recommend using Multirecovery Flasher simply because it eliminates the preparation you need to take in order to change the recovery image. Since you're working from an untouched phone, you shouldn't have this problem.
okay, thanks..
i will download the 351 and install it the way u said.
just one last question ??? after upgrading to 351 will all my contacts and apps be there or i will have to install them all over again ?
and for that *.pdf file...thanks man !!! awesome guide !!
Upgrading in this fashion resets the Streak to factory fresh condition, meaning you lose everything. The good news is however that once you set your Google account back up on your phone, your apps will start downloading themselves back to your phone automatically. If you told Google to back up your contacts, they will also return when the Google account is restored to the phone.
Get into the habit of doing manual backups of both apps and your contact list. There are numerous apps on the Market to take care of the apps. The contact list can be backed up from the Contacts settings menu.
okay thanks a lot !!!!
When I updated from wiki I didn't lose anything. Everything was there like I left it except for being rooted.

Was that from flashing the update.pkg or did you install the ROM in a different fashion? I know when I went from 347 to 351 using the update.pkg everything got wiped.

As long as phone is switching on its fine. You can fix it.
Download MultiRecoveryFlasher.
Put you phone in Fastboot mode. (Power ON with Camera).
Flash the recovery of the ROM Version you are planning to upgrade to.
Put the phone in Recovery by Vol Up + Vol Down when phone reboots.
Update from SD Card Update.pkg.
Let the phone restore/upgrade.
It will be fine after it reboots.
If you update 351 from the dell site, you dont need to flash any recovery.

hi all, i would like to ask you for a help with my vibrant. I just purchased it and successfully made the root and unlock. I managed to do both even tho my hardware button keys does not support the recovery mode. Any holding of the buttons will not allow the phone to go to recovery mode, this is not working even with an odin. After i did the root and unlock i downloaded the rom manager, created a clockwork image and back up i tried to make the partition of my 16gb SD card using the rom manager. After this my phone restarted but after t mobile logo and galaxy s logo the phone screen stays black. Tried all thee methods to go into the recovery mode but was not able to do it. i searched this forum also but was not able to find similar case to this one. i would be very thankful for any advice.
You'll have to get T-Mo to exchange it.

thanks to this instructions i was able to use odin but this did not change the satus of my phone?????
unfortunately cant i did not buy it in the store
NEVER use rom manager to partition your SD card. Try the steps in this thread
thank you, trying to do it now
a friend of mine bricked his phone and it boot up to the "S" screen then go black after a min. i flashed it using oden and the T959UVJFD file but i got the same results when trying to boot up again. it wasn't my phone and i had already sent the guy to get a new one, but i just started flashing it with all the vibrant oden roms i could find... non of them worked. i really didnt care any more so i was just playing around with the phone and flashed a i9000 rom, of corse it didnt work but when i flashed it back with the T959UVJFD file it worked.... i dont know if it would work out for you i just wanted to share the story... good luck
thank you, unfotunatelly i am stuck with HW keys problem againm!!!!
i follow the steps from the post 4 from @Alkaloid and now from dead i am at froyo and will hang here for a while cause at least for a week dont want to flash nothing. Boy what a day, 12 hours fixing this samsung!!!
Ivuso, how did you get in to download mode? I tried everything from every single thread here that mentions how to get in to download mode..
Odin is the way to go..it saved me too

You do not have to exchange it the same thing happened to me. You just need to use odin to flash the stock rom onto it. Its really easy. Youtube it
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
if you have the hardware keys lock the only way to get to download modwe is through odin. For me worked this.
start odin, fil pit and pda
remove battery
usb in the computer
hold volume buttons
put battery in - phone is showing just the battery charging status
disconnect usb and than fast connect back
now you are able to flash froyo from the the 4th post in this thread, once finished you will be in download mode but need to reboot with adb cause hardwate "enter" button will not work
GOODLUCK
Hi Guys,
I'm a troubled owner of a bricked Xperia X10i. I have tried searching on the forum for solutions but nothing seems to work
Here's the basic info for my x10:
Model:
Xperia x10i
OS Version:

baseband version:

Build Number:

Here is how it happened:
The phone has root from the z4 one click root downloaded from market. I've also installed busybox 1.17 and xRecovery 0.3 on the phone. All these have been working fine with another froyo custom rom I've been using.
I saw a new build of another froyo rom, and decided to give it a try:
[ROM] CM 6.1.3 V4.1 ready [Tweaked+Theme+Extras]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945264
I installed the new rom following the instructions and everything seemed to be fine. I rebooted the phone for a few cycle just to make sure it is stable.
Then, i rebooted the phone and held the "Back" key to go into recovery mode again. But it did not go into recovery. It just went to boot instead, and after boot up the phone is stuck in the current Bricked condition

Things wrong with the phone now:
Phone can still turn on and off, rom can still load, and apps can still run. However Rom is suddenly very unstable and auto restarts every 1-2 minutes or so.
At start up, there's the error message: "Sorry! Process system is not Responding. Force close/wait"
Other problems:
No internet connectivity
No SD card access
The top status bar doesn't work
Auto Orientation doesn't work
Camera cannot load
and worst of all,
USB doesn't connect! Charging is fine from USB, but computer doesn't detect the phone at all

Things I've tried:
Restarting (duh! =p ) : doesn't work, even with removing batteries
Factory wipe (withing Froyo OS) : doesn't initiate
Attempt to load recovery : doesn't happen. Phone just boots up instead
Flash new rom using flash tool: Doesn't detect on computer. After power off and hold back key, plugging in causes green light to light up (Flash mode on). But computer doesn't detect.
Pull my hair out: nope, never expected that to work

any idea what can help to solve the problem? Please help!!
so far the only thing I have seen similar to my problem is the USB Brick on Desire forum. wonder if there's any link? Don't really dare to try out the Desire solution since it might cause more harm instead
I'm pretty much an idiot when it comes these things, so please be patient and explain in simple terms!>_<
Many many thanks! XD
Have you installed USB flash drivers? It's in drivers folder in FlashTool.
Don't really get what you mean sry >_<
But if it's checking whether the flash tool works, it does. I've used it to flash the 2.1 roms when my phone was still on 1.6
edit:
ooooooooooh omg I must be the biggest muppet in the world
installed the driver and now it's flashing!! hope it works!! :3
at any rate, love you bro
Hy,for me,you are using,a wrong baseband,instal new pc companion and then Repair Software,it woks,

Hi, this community is lovely, thanks ^_^
turns out it was user error! I didn't install the flash driver of the flash tool. After installation, everything works like a charm.
Irony is after all the effort and distress, and trying out the newer roms, I am still back to using the previous froyo rom i was using before lolz.
Hi all,
I just got hold of another faulty streak only this one is partially working so im hoping to fix it. One issue im having is in the recovery menu of this particular streak there is no 'screen calibration' option, you know the white screen you get before you go into fastboot (camera + power). The calibration option is simply not there. I've seen a few streaks lately and they've all had this option so why does this one not have it, any ideas ?
Thanks

another way to show the screen calibration option is ... press power button until panel lights on... release it... when the dell logo shows up... press up + down volume button until it goes into recovery menu...
# 3 menu option should show screen calibration :good:

Thanks i found that option via recovery and the streak touch is working again now ... i just wondered why it wasnt in the bootloader menu (power + camera) as its the first streak i've found without the option, perhaps its an older streak model ?
The only older models I know of for the Streak are engineering units with purple cases and pre-release units in Android green.
Well i just updated another streak to the 407 rom and suprise suprise the touch calibration is gone from the bootloader screen. I'm certain it was there before flashing 407 so it must be something to do with the 407 update which is removing it. In other words it should be nothing to worry about .

have you tried to flash custom rom such as dsc or longhorn and see if the option comes back?
because i am at longhorn 2.7 and can see the screen calibration option....

Its running DSC v1.3 and the option isnt there. Will have to give longhorn a try to see if it comes back but im guessing its something to do with the official 407 updating the bootloader. Presumably i could flash an earlier stock rom and that would bring it back.

How odd. So its definately there on yours, in the white bootloader menu ? Did you flash 406 or 407 before DSC ?
My main streak is running an older DSC version, presuming DSC 1.0 and the calibration option is still there in the bootloader menu so im almost certain 406 / 407 are the culprits. Anyone willing to give it a try ?

I have the same problem too, when I go to Fastboot via pressing power+camera button simultaneously these days, I do not see the words "Touch calibration" anymore. It is missing now. I only realize it recently. I am concern that this might be due to some corrupt system files on my Streak 5, that might spread to other functions too, soon... will it? Does anyone knows about this? Or how to fix it?
Here my story. I apologies, sorry if it is a long one...
I only realize the missing "Touch calibration" words recently.
My Streak was recently stuck at Dell Logo on boot due to an app I install. I was trying to use this app that enable me to install ROM directly from the SD without going into the Recovery Mode (i.e. turn off phone, press up+down volume buttons and power on button simultaneously). Just click on this app menu to update to latest CWM and then click another menu to load a ROM to flash. That ended in disaster, really made my Streak to just stuck at Dell logo instead of flashing the intended ROM. When I remove the battery and put it back, I go to recovery mode. The CWM recovery mode was corrupted. If I am not mistaken, I was not able to go into Fastboot either. At that time, I was using 16GB innerSD when this happened. I replaced back my original innerSD 2GB, flash it with CWM and Longhorn 2.9.3. I was lucky it worked.
Next, I was searching for a way to update the baseband to 407 (GAUSB1A1406214-EU). My streak was on 347. As I understood, my Dell Streak suppose to use baseband 407 if I choose Longhorn 2.9.3 {{ Please correct me if I am wrong, I am still new at doing all these mod }} It took me almost a month to upgrade the baseband to 407, all end up with failure to upgrade/no change. I even accidentally downgraded my Streak to 305 after I flash AMSS and DSP1 which were in QDL folders I downloaded from XDA (Nobody's fault but mine). But I finally manage to do it, after reading someone feedback (sorry can't remember) that says, to go flash 350 ROM first since it region 14, before using auto-update menu on the Dell Streak to get to ROM 407 installed. I use 407 ROM for just a short while and then I flashed to Longhorn 2.9.3 using CWM recovery.
Like I said, I only realize it recently. So, in my case, it is either the 407 Recovery+ROM update or the Corrupted Flashing method that lead to the lost of the "Touch calibration" on Fastboot screen. Should I get this fixed?
EDITED:
After many times using QDL Tools, and upgrade to Stock ROM 407, I have CONFIRMED the "Touch Calibration" will disappear. No cause for alarm. It seems Dell removed the option from the Fastboot Mode screen on 407.

Did you try screen calibration in Recovery Mode? I read somewhere in xda-dev. about this, if my memory is correct... And I can't remember where I found it. Do it at your own risk...
Turn off your phone.
Clean your screen with just slightly wet tissue or cloth, ensure to wipe it clean and dry.
Don't turn on your phone.
Press volume up, volume down, power on button simultaneously together. Don't let go until the Recovery Mode i.e. Black Screen with 4 options comes out.
Select Screen Calibration, and let it run, don't touch anything at all.
If I am not mistaken, the phone will booth up after that.
Best way is to use the search function in xda-dev, to find solutions given by Senior Members on this matter.
Goodluck.

Thank you for your reply. Tried Screen Calibration in Recovery mode thrice but no use. Any other solution?
Other instructions on the user manual :~
~ factory reset if device can't boot up
~ flash recovery & matching ROM if system is currupted
~ recalibrate screen (obviously you've done enough, but worth checking if your steps correct - see picture taken from User manual in DS5 SD folder)

I am using Window XP, so, I don't know about Win7. I am sorry, I cannot help you more. Perhaps senior members could help on this matter.
Other things that I can comment are:
When I use the QDLTool.exe from the QDL Tool folder, it did not work, i.e. it Failed.
So, I run the QDLTool.exe from the streakflash folder first. I get it pass.
Then, I run the QDLTool.exe from the QDL Tool folder. Then only it can pass.
At one time, my innerSD is so corrupted that I have to remove it and erase everything on it, then I put it back in and run both QDLTool.exe as I mention above. I erase the innerSD using USB Image Tool 1.59, which I get from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31067359&postcount=2
I have been visiting this site ever since I first read about X10 & was fascinated by it (I have always loved SE phones). Anyway, I have since gotten an X10i (AT&T) & have de-branded it as well as unlocking & rooting it. Here goes:
I installed Champs' Rom (x10sV9-addon) but didn't want all the clutter he had pre-installed. To make a long story short, I went back to Wolf's ROM via Xrecovery but something went wrong. I can no longer boot into Xrecovery & after SonyEricsson logo, screen goes blank, not black/blue just blank. The other problem is, since I can't see the screen, I can't turn on the USB connection so my PC/Flashtool/SEUS can recognize my device so I can fix it. This happened while trying to re-install Wolf's ROM & installing the following zip files via Xrecovery: Bravia_Xloud engine, Xperia S Player, Champ + Bar, x10_gb_stock_wifi_modules. Then I rebooted & I get the blank screen. I know it is on because I can turn the volume all the way down to vibrate. The "home" button still lights up. PLEASE, I need someone's help with this one as I am no expert, just a moderate tinkerer. ANY help/incite would be appreciated. Sorry, I can't even give you any screenshots. Can anyone out there help me out? Thanx in advance.

You said the button still lights up? can you get into recovery? if so just wipe system and install a rom! and try flashing a kernel with flashtool!!!!
RE: Blank Screen After Flashing Custom ROM
Thanx for getting back to me so fast. As I said, the screen is blank. That is, the backlit display works but I can see nothing else. The "Home" button lights up when i press it but the display does nothing. If/When I reboot to try to enter XRecovery, I see the SonyEricsson logo followed by the backlit screen & nothing else. The Volume up/down buttons work as I am able to silence the phone by turning volume all the way down to vibrate. Because I cannot see what's on the display, I cannot turn USB on/off to connect to PC to run SEUS/Flashtool, etc. I.E. I cannot fix the device. Usually I just boot into XRecovery to fix a problem like this but that doesn't work.

hy, install sony update service and repair your phone, then install again custom rom, the indications how to repair your phone software is in the program.
Best regards
Does USB need to be On or Off on the device for Update Service to run?

I wish I had gotten this solution sooner. Not sure if it would have mattered. When trying to use Flashtool I kept getting an error saying my phone was not in "flash mode".
I solved my problem by flashing using Omnius & flashing firmware 'X10i_generic_SE_24_MultiTouch.rar'. This got my phone back but it was only 2.1 so I used 'DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su' to get me back to 2.3, but this is where I'm at. I had Wolf's firmware before but right now I have no xRecovery installed. I thought I had rooted my phone but xRecovery isn't installed nor is Busybox.. Any ideas? Thanx in advance...EVERYONE @ XDA-DEVELOPERS rox!
I haven't replied to this post because I'm at my wit's end. I still can't get XRecovery installed & I think I've tried all the methods out there. Maybe my problem is that I restored my phone using Omnius. Flashtool works OK but I can't do anything but Flash on it. My phone is a headache now. It freezes up, crashes & sometimes won't read the SD card. Please help...

C if u can repair phone using SEUS now. Open the software without connecting phone. N then go to the update part. It should give u a repair option. Then follow those steps. Or else just connect ur phone n then start software. When it tells u ur phone is up to date click on that n then click on "repair". Then use the latest flashtool to root. Recoveries come with kernels so just flash a custom kernel.

Many Thanks, I was finally able to use SEUS; before I could not. I used Flashtool to upgrade/downgrade kernel. However, I still don't have XRecovery installed & I'm not sure how to do this. I can't install XRecovery using Flashtool. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to install a custom Rom again.
I don't think u need to upgrade or downgrade.. just look for a link to download xrecovery here and follow instructions

I'm not sure how it went down but prior to this, I was unable to use SEUS. No matter what I did, I couldn't repair it. However, since your post, I was able to use SEUS & Flashtool to get back to where I was before I screwed up my X10a. I'm currently running Wolf's Rom (many thanx!!!) & am very satisfied w/all your help homey! You da man!
I noticed you are running ICS on your X10i. Any help so that I may partake of that deliciousness?

Ur welcome i don't think u need help you just flashed a custom ROM.. the procedure for installing ICS is the same. Although it'd be better if you are on stock before installing it.. just look for an ICS ROM that u like (I'm using feralab n it works like a charm).
Get the kernel n ROM.. as usual, put the ROM zip on ur SD card, flash the kernel, install ROM from recovery
Although before installing:
1. In recovery go to mounts n storage
2. Format system data n cache
3. Mount system, data n cache (note that if the mounting is successful the options should change to unmount system, unmount data, unmount cache respectively)
4. Then install ROM
5. The installer is GUI based so it'll guide u really well through the installation

I will appreciate if you help me sort it out.
Pretty much the last 6 months of 2012 my Dell has been rebooting when I've tried to use it. It can stay on for a minute if I'm lucky, but then it reboots, sometimes gets stuck on Dell logo. Doesn't seem to be a battery cover issue. I installed Olleh on it to hopefully fix it, but that didn't fix it, I tried replacing the internal SD, which also didn't fix it. I'm at a loss. Was an expensive contract, and I didn't get much use out of it, so it would be a shame to not be able to use it again, but it happens. At least I know not to use a Dell product again.

You are on 5treak XDA place, why u not try on Dell Streak 5 Android Development, if u like Stock Style u can try install DSC 2.3 ROM from master n0p. If u want to try another style u can try install MIUI 2.4.20 from nitin1978 or PCM7-Streak from nom051205. I use MIUI 2.4.20 from nitin1978 with n0p kernel phoenix U30 for MIUI n never get reboot when i use it.

try search carefully on Streak 5 Android Development, it's all explain clearly. If u want to go to FASTBOOT mode push POWER + CAMERA button together until display white n then u on FASTBOOT mode.

When i press those two button the phone has no respone at all..but when i press the two volume i got my recovery mode..that the problem how can you get into fastboot while the phone is dumb and no respone at all while pressing power and cam button
