Dell Streak 2.2.2 update with FULL ROOT - Flashable via ClockworkMod.. - Dell Streak 7

I have taken the liberty of packing up the official update with Root access. Initially it will be available via PM only, after a few users have tested and verify that it works for them as well, I will release the link publicly.
I have removed a lot of the T-Mobile/Dell pre-installed junk. Also, I replaced the boot logo with a Blue Honeybee, if you don't like it I can provide an update.zip that will restore the Dell/T-Mobile logo.
MD5SUM (please verify before flashing, also make a Nandroid backup) - 971426ED95EA7CD564714EE5A29E61A1
Should be fixed now, uploading to my server, the link is the same as before - note the new MD5SUM. I left out a closing parenthesis in the updater-script, my apologies to everyone who already downloaded it. I will post a new post when the upload is complete, thanks for working with me on this.
Hope this helps some people out.
Alright, it would appear that I have this ready to go. So, without further ado, here is your link. If anyone (please) would like to mirror it for me, give a link and I will add it here as well.
By clicking here you acknowledge that you understand the risks you are taking flashing an update package from someone you do not know or trust (that would be me). If anything happens to your device, I'll try my best to help via PM or Email, but I take no responsibility. Only you are truly responsible for what you do to your property, ok... Here you go.

i would be happy to test it out.

ok tablet chargin will fire it up in a bit to give it a go
so just to be straight, the deal is, boot into clock work...and flash rom from zip on sd card correct? just making sure i got my steps right...do i gotta wipe or anything? i want this to go as smoothly as i can for everyone

Ok, the deal is this...
Boot into recovery
NANDROID BACKUP - DO NOT SKIP!!!!!!!!!
Flash rom from zip
Reboot
Test for Superuser rights.
No wipe should be needed.
And just to be 100% on this, do not do this if you are the least bit concerned about something going wrong. Also, you should have a good working knowledge of Android and willingness to troubleshoot it. The Nandroid backup is your safety net, as this update.zip will NOT remove ClockworkMod recovery - meaning you can roll back to your backup if it is not to your liking). If you flash this and boot up and find you don't have root, you can either restore your backup, or seek some personal help from me. However, it is my birthday and I will be pretty busy today.

ohh not really concerned, i still have one day remaining to take this device back to tmo and if not i can call dell, make my wife cry at em a bit...ill get a new tablet...i work IT...when something breaks, i make it my personal duty to try to get the manufacturer to cover the expense. if not thats on me...i trusted the update. anyhow i thank you for this daveid, and i will let you know as soon as this light turns green. thanks agian. happy birthday...your generous on your b-day providing something usful to others in the community...i like that.

It's all about the community. Once the update was decrypted, I was all over it.
Besides, I wanted to update my tablet too (the process will help me decide if I want to keep the thing or not).

i hear you, if i didnt own a g1 and mytouch 3g prior to this...i would have NEVER rooted this thing, and in doing so i would have never kept it. that g1 really opened up my eyes for possibilites to come on android, so i stuck with. the reason i asked for your full set of instructions is because i recall some roms being flashed with wipe and some not...i just want my experience to be great when i let the public know that you sir ARE THE MAN!

You have Clockworkmod recovery right? Did you verify the MD5Sum?
I am out doing birthday stuff now, but can be of more assistance later.
Might have a typo in my updater script, will check when I get home, sorry.

i did verify the md5 sum with fast sum...same md5 as the one you gave...still a noo goo...and yes i have clockwork...that is how i performed the steps in my previous post...i almost typed out the actual options word for word...but its still pretty close

no problem i do remember reading about it being an updater script error. let me know what you get...im going to lunch...gotta test my belly...then ill be back to test your greatness in progress

Probably a typo I the line I had to add for su. When I get home I will check it and hopefully send an update out.
Found a typo, uploading new version now. Will post when it is up, please re-download... sorry everyone.

Ok, the new (hopefully fixed) update.zip is on my server, the link is the same as before, the MD5SUM is now - 971426ED95EA7CD564714EE5A29E61A1.

Help Me Please

I feel I've made a terrible (and stupid) mistake. I decided to unroot my phone from cyanogen roms. I read a how to guide that I guess was outdated because now I have android 1.0 firmware. The guidw was [how to] unroot by tubaking182 (absolutely zero offense to him, not his fault, I'm stupid, etc etc.) So I now have stock version 1.0. There's no check for system updates under about phone in settings so I can't do that. There are file manager apps that I could use to rename the necessary updates into update.zip, but there's no apps available like download crutch so I can download them. I also can't enter recovery. It gives me a triangle with an exclamation inside next to a image of a phone and that's it and I have no idea how to install an update without recovery mode. As I'm sure you've noticed by now, I'm the epitome of newb and feel free to laugh at my failure. I just really need someone to help me and would be eternally grateful. In all likelihood, I'll need step by step instructions on what to do. I know this is a lot to ask and I've really done nothing to earn this help... I really just need assistance. Thank you to anyone who helps me in advance
Not to be an asshole and say "Shoulda Coulda Woulda" but you really should have done your research before embarking on bricking your phone.
ItsAndroidsWorld had many videos on You Tube. Look for ones on how to root, then how to install the death spl, then look for the ones with Super D or FastTest .. as it seems as though they are probably the best roms for everyday use at this point.
I've found that using these videos via You Tube is the easiest way to go.
Good Luck.

in all seriousness, there's nothing actually wrong with your phone. You completely unrooted it. By following the aforementioned instructions, it'll be easy to reroot and update. What I DO find weird is why you're not getting 1.5 OTA...
although i hate when people post in the wrong section - im in a good mood this morning
http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec
not sure if it works in 1.0 - it should as it uses a rather old bug to do so
Easy as pie...just follow the guide in my sig.

To those who say I bricked it, I know that's not the case it still works so I obviously didn't brick it... not that fail thankfully.
To thenameismax, AHA! I did not know about alt+l retrieving text so thank you thank you thank you. I just need to get the necessary updates and copy them to sd card root, rename update.zip/install one at a time... I think lol
Thanks again to all who helped and sorry about the wrong section. When I was rooting, it was in development. I assumed that unrooting would be too and therefore problems with that... further fail.

yeah man no problem. good luck.
Don't do anything. In a day or two you get an OTA update.
You can force the update like people have mentioned, but as long as you can hold off for a day or two you dont need to.
BTW, at some point you will see the E or 3G icon downloading like crazy and you dont know why. It is downloading the update. Stay away from task killers and in my experience it is good to be around wifi.
Just relax.

Nexus one only going to the "Android system recovery <2e>" screen

When booting the Nexus One I get an Android with an explanation point, then I am able to toggle the volume key and power to get into "Android system recovery <2e>" screen which gives me the options
-reboot system now
-apply sdcard:update.zip
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition
when it's in this screen I can NOT access it through fastboot or adb.
It looks like it is only allowing me to push "officially" signed update.zip files to it and nothing else.
I cannot get it in to hboot or anything else it ONLY boots into "Android system recovery <2e>"
Maybe someone has an official update.zip boot image they can send me to or some other idea it would be much appreciated since I cannot use the phone at all.
Thank you in advanced, Please help!!!
Did you try holding trackball and power button when the phone is turned off to bring you directly to fastboot?

Yes, with no luck, it just goes straight to the Android and explanation point
Are you rooted? Unlocked bootloader? What did you do to get you into this situation?
Not to worry you, but usually not being able to boot into fastboot is not a good thing.

ya at this point I was kinda figuring that but I am hopeful ...I unlocked the boot loader and everything was going great until I partitioned the sd in the recovery image, then I started getting a weird MISC error and couldn't boot up at all, only in recovery but fastboot and everything still worked. Then I saw a post about applying the original image to the device via fastboot, preformed that and ever since then I have had a $500 brink that lights up
I don't think you can brick the N1 by just flashing a ROM, usually this only happens when changing the radio or spl.
I would try taking out your sd card, copy all your files you your computer, format your sd card, copy your files back to your sd card and see what that does for you. Maybe some issue arose when you partitioned your sd card, although you said fastboot still worked until you flashed the ROM. Worth a shot though.
If you can access fastboot then, I would flash Amon Ra's custom recovery image via fastboot and take it from there.
well I actually tried a completely different sdcard and then none at all. No luck. If it's not letting me into hboot do you think it may have gotten corrupted or something

Thank you for all your help!! but I am afraid this isn't looking to good.
I also tried creating that file just to see but since it wasn't officially signed it gave me an error about that
I think at this point it is looking for a specific signed update.zip file, where I find that, I have no idea.
It almost seems like I need the whole update.zip officially signed by google and/or HTC and then it would flash. I highly doubt they are going to hand that over. I am half temped to see if I could send it in to them to be reflashed even for a fee if it means I can get this thing working again, but I don't even know if they would offer that. It's only 2 months old and I think the file I need maybe out there but damned if I have been able to find it anywhere.

I wouldn't give up yet. I'm sure there is someone out there that can tell you you are completely hosed, or help you fix the problem.
If you can't fix it, I have heard it will cost $196 for a new motherboard if you send it in to HTC. They could just reflash your phone but I heard they handle a case like this by charging you for a motherboard swap. Second hand information though.

I believe that, I work in the field service industry and I see stuff like that all the time. Although I would rather pay the 196 instead of 560+ again. I am almost 100% certain this could be re-flashed with the right file. but I have so far spent 2 full days trying different things, I think I will give it until tomorrow and then send it in (by then I should be good an sick of searching). Unfortunately, I am in love with my Nexus. it's been a while since I had a phone I really enjoyed as much. If I knew another great phone was coming out in a week I would probably say the heck with it and just buy the next one but this is still an awesome device.

Have you tried every option in all the other "HELP BRICK" posts?? I don't really have time to search (and my nexus is working fine) but I know there has been plenty of threads like this before. Multiple options where tried, some successfully and some not. I would not give up unless it won't power on at all. Does ADB logcat work during a boot? Fastboot Devices? anything??????

No haven't tried those checking the Help Brick post I will see what I can find. No adb and not fastboot devices, just says waiting for device if I try anything.
Since you have unlocked the bootloader have you tried a complete reload?
fastboot: flash boot, flash recovery
recovery: wipe everything, reset, install latest CM.
Did you ever figure this out?

[Q] Having issues trying to OTA update?

so i used odin to revert completely back to stock jf6 firmware, everytime i try and update it goes thru the process of updating and stops during reboot at 50 percent and says download failed, can anyone help me troubleshoot this issue. im all ears, thanks in advance...
this seems to be happening to all of us who had been rooted at one point or another
yea this will be my fourth try. this time im going to do a factory reset and sign into the market and see what happens. i wonder if this has something to do with the jf6 zip that all of us are flashing back to....
interesting. ive been seeing a fail message as well but 3-button recovery is working now.

Guys.. chill out - the Samsung official announcement said
"An update to improve the Samsung Captivate's GPS performance is now available. Captivate customers will receive a notification on their device that an update is available and will simply need to download the file to update their phone. The updates will be pushed to customers' devices over the next few weeks."
You do not need to check for the update yourself.
not the point. the point is, it is possible to get it now, and it's not working for us rooters :/

***Easiest Method for Keeping Root Thru the ZV8 Update***

Please Read Full Post Before Posting Any Questions!!! If You Ask A Question That Is Answered In This Post, It Will Not Get Answered!!!
Alrighty Boys and Girls!!! I have tried to make this as easy as possible for what we have!!! First and foremost, this will NOT root if you are already on ZV8!!!
Prerequisites
Pretty easy, you need ANY form of ZV7 (By any that includes stock, GingerVolt, Blitzkrieg, self modified, whatever) and CWM. Also, if you have frozen the software update app, make sure you unfreeze before anything!!!
1) Download this file: http://d-h.st/MeH
2) Flash that file in cwm
3) Reboot into the OS
4) Update to ZV8
That is it!!! You are now rooted stock ZV8!!!!
After gaining root on ZV8 you can get CWM recovery by running this ZV8CWMRecovery.bat: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54501789/Revo/ZV8CWMRecovery.zip
There you have it!!! That was easy now wasn't it!
You are AMAZING! Very nice mtmichelson.
I'll give it a shot. What do we do if the OTA fails??
Edit:
OTA failed. Lol
Edit: fixed my market, broke my swype.
Edit: broke all sound and vibration. At work, can't take time to troubleshoot. Later, hopefully.
EDIT!
Holy effing facepalm, batman! I just realized what was killing the OTA.. And while I certainly feel like an idiot, I can assure you I am truly not one. Also, I refuse to disclose where I screwed the pooch.
Updating to zv8 now..
Edit:
Yup. It works. Ha!
Still not sound/vibration though. No worries, Im going to flash a clean zv7 and do this again in a bit.
I really should have waited until I was home to mess with this. Thanks MT!

This method does still take advantage of the local.prop file. Delete it from /data and reboot and you will have sound back. If you run the .bat it will remove it for you though.

Awesome job MT! This was a life saver for me since my USB connection doesn't work! I was hoping the ZV8 upgrade might fix it, but it didn't. Oh well, at least now I'm on ZV8 with Break Out 1.1!!!
I had to enter the commands in Terminal Emulator by hand, which sucked. But hey, I got there...

No, I would never laugh at you lol
I know I am a complete noob for asking this, but what is the best way to execute the .bat file (.zip file, since we cannot install it with CWM)? I know I can adb, though I am foggy on the details since it has been a while. What are the steps that need to be taken to make sure that i direct terminal correctly towards my phone. I just want to make sure I do it right the first time. Thanks in advance!
Another dumb question again here. sorry, but....
To run the CWM Recovery bat file, I need to be hooked up to the computer, right?
I have done the update to ZV8, but I am at work and have no cable to connect to the computer. Did the first part through WIFI to get the files.
There is no way to run the bat file off the phone itself is there?

Alrighty Boys and Girls!!! I have tried to make this as easy as possible for what we have!!! First and foremost, this will NOT root if you are already on ZV8!!!
Prerequisites
Pretty easy, you need ANY form of ZV7 (By any that includes stock, GingerVolt, Blitzkrieg, self modified, whatever) and CWM.
1) Download this file: http://d-h.st/MeH
2) Flash that file in cwm
3) Reboot into the OS
4) Update to ZV8
That is it!!! You are now rooted stock ZV8!!!!
After gaining root on ZV8 you can get CWM recovery by running this ZV8CWMRecovery.bat: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54501789/Revo/ZV8CWMRecovery.zip
There you have it!!! That was easy now wasn't it!

Yes you need to be hooked to a computer and I assume you need to be in USB debugging mode and internet connection only. I felt bad because no one else answered.
As to pushing the file through ADB I have no idea I usually just use the simple connect and run by the means of MT's programz since they do it all for you anyways. Still denating to update though because I love my blitzkrieg...

Thanks.
I figured as much. Will have to wait til after work then. It's been so long since I have done any updating on this phone, that I am forgetting how to do things.
I spend most of my time putting new Roms and stuff on my Nook Color and this stuff is new again to me.
Thanx a million
Will the phone info still say v7 after this. I flashed, all went fine, rebooted, all still good. Checked root, got it, but then checked phone info and it still says v7. I don't really care if it says v7 or what ever as long as I know it's v8. Thanks for all your time and effort dedicated to all of us Revo users MT.

You have to go into your settings and update now. The file doesn't upgrade for you.

[Q] HTC M7 Dev Edition *Factory Rom Lost*

Hey everyone new poster to the forums here . Have a question about loosing the stock ROM for my HTC M7 Dev edition. I made the backup but I think when I formatted I formatted more then I should have because when I pull up TWRP recovery mode to restore a backup nothing is listed in the window. However when I go into the internal storage in windows on my computer with the phone connected and look inside HTC One\Internal storage\TWRP\BACKUPS I found a folder called HT34GW9xxxxx and a sub directory with a date on it and it looks like the date that I did the flash in the first place. That folder also has 13 files in it equaling out to 4.25GB in size. So basically what I'm getting at is how come I can see this folder here but not in recovery and even if I could see it in recovery this seems like it's not large enough to be HTC Sense 5.0 according to this thread and the downloads attached to it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248997&highlight=nandroid
Also speaking of that thread considering the original M7 Dev rom is gone can I use that thread to restore my phone even though I am using TWRP and not clockwork. I'm not the greatest at these type of things, I don't want to brick my phone, and I never have enough time invest in this stuff. If I knew this was going to happy I probably wouldn't have done it in the first place lol.
Thank you in advance and sorry if this has already been talked about, I did a search but I must have skipped over it if it was already out there :\.

Thank you for the help. A follow up question would be is there a place to get someone's previous backup and download it like the link I put up in the previous posts user did. I really don't want to lock the boot loader and I would love to just be able to easily get Cyanogenmod back on the phone easily. Reason being is that right now the Cm camera just isn't up to pay with the Sense camera software and if I go to an event like I am tonight I would like to be able to swap back and fourth.
TWRP and CWM backups aren't compatible with each other. You'd have to flash the relevant recovery to use a corresponding backup.
You still have your backup though. You said as much in your OP. You just need to go into TWRP settings and specify the default location for your backups.
As mentioned above however, you can just flash the official RUU to return to stock
Thanks a ton!
Just wanna say thanks to the both of you for your help. I went with option 2 for now because I want to switch back to CM after the Cardinals MLB game tonight. I never lost the backup and you were right I just had to find the folder. It was weird I didn't see any button to search for a folder kinda odd how TWRP is layer out in that interface. Yet I found the backed up file and took about 10 minutes from start to finish. The device is still unlocked to so I can reflash CM when I'm ready.
A little off topic but does anyone know what the difference between the GSM Cyanogenmod ROMs and the AT&T ROMs are? I have the Dev version but flashed the AT&T version and it ran fine made calls and had no data transfer issues at all.
Ok so I actually started having issues after that last post. What was happening was I kept getting this HTC system update my guess the Camera software update but whatever. So I clicked on the update now and it downloaded like normal then reboot. After it reboot it booted into TWRP recovery well at that point I didn't know what to do so I just went a head and rebooted into System. Well here is where the issue started it said again system update avalible ok great install, same deal it just booted back into TWRP after the download. Back into system I went and again same thing.
At this point I desided to go into TWRP and do a system restore and I thought that worked cause it wasn't notifying me immediately after the launcher loaded to install the update. So I checked for it manually and of course there was one. Tapped on Install it downloaded and asked to reboot so I did...
SAME ISSUE AHHHHGGG! Lol
This will be the end of me haha.
Is there something I'm missing here? Can I not have root access or a a third party boot loader like TWRP or both modifying the system. What am I missing?
Ok thanks again, sorry for the multiple posts I'm just so frustrated at this point.

This my very wild guess. Try flashing stock recovery first and then install the OTA update again. That's just my wild guess I'm not saying it will 100% work.
No luck

Hopefully this helps..
What I did find was this link here...http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc...ml#post2827047 that's where someone else is having the same issue but on Sprint I'm guessing. So that doesn't really apply to me. However a poster further down the thread gave another link to all these "nandroid?" files. I'm not really sure what a nandroid is haha I'm such a noob at this. Basically what they are saying is that unrooting it then i guess somehow putting this "nandroid" file on it somehow. Anyone have any idea on this. I'm terribly sorry for my noobishness but I'm trying to learn all this and it's really frustrating at first..
Here's the link to the nandroid files. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2207874 funny thing is that I actually found that link on Android Central website so that I could come back here and repost about it again heh. Anyways does that look like something that might fix the issue that I'm having?
Even if this file does help I have no idea what to do with it but that first link seemed to have some video's attached to it although I worry about following them because it's for Sprint and I really don't want to brick my phone. (another reason I am being so careful) You pay over 600 dollars for a device you tend to be super careful with anything you do with it.

Sorry about that.
All fixed!!
Ok so I got it. I ended up finding this http://qbking77.com/development/how-to-unrootunbrick-the-htc-one-to-stock-2/
Worked great fixed everything. Linked to the RUU on HTC Dev website also so its official.:good:
So basically if Anyone need to restore to factory from a mess they have made follow this guide it works perfectly and he does an execelent job of describing how to do it in a video he posted step by step.
