Dell Streak 7 - Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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.

to streak or not to streak

hey guys, hopefully this isnt a repost of a common older thread that i couldnt find. im new to android and have only been playing around on friend's devices and i've finally decided that i need a new phone. i'm currently using a nokia n95-3, very good device despite its age. i've read a lot of reviews on the streak and there are quite a few mixed reviews out there.
so the reason for my post here is to find out, should i get a streak. the reasons i like it right now is the screen size and android. and what i'm looking to ask you guys is what is your most favourite thing about the streak and also you biggest grievance with it. i figured coming here to ask would be best since everyone is a streak user so please also include the length of time you have been using or used the streak. thanks for your help guys and look forward to the input.

[Q] Noob

Hi all, just bought a streak 5 and just joined the forum, my stupid question is about rooting. I previously had and have a n900 and just want to run maemo/ meego or ubuntu on this streak , is rooting just like having the x-terminal on the n900 where I can get in and fek around? Also there appears to be a few ways to root ,whats the best or do I just get a terminal from..android market. Finally anyone running meego on a streak_ cos to be fair it was a bit buggy and limited on the n900. Sorry for being so dense
Check out the links in my signature for some Streak references.

[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!
