Hi all,
Well, I just got my Dell Streak 7 wifi this past Friday(9/2/11) By Sunday night I had rooted it to Dj Steve's HoneyStreak 3.2/RC 2.1. (HD7-RC2.1) Every thing is running great. Though the battery life stinks. Im now having troubles with Flash on the system. Ive updated flash to 10.3.186.6 in hopes that an update would fix it. But no go. Like if I go to live.twit.tv, it plays sound but no video.
Now I have downloaded another version called Streakdroid -HD 7 2.0 R2.(which is for wireless) Should I reroot it to the R2 since my Streak is wifi only. or is the RC 2.1 ok? & what can I do to fix Flash ?
Thanks for any help.
The newest build is r4. You can download it here:
http://tabletroms.com/forums/streak...m][r4]-honeystreak-hd7-2-0-release-3-2-a.html
Flash the r2 and then update to the r4. Hopefully the r4 build will sove your problem.
Thanks otnos. That worked.
But now When I connect my streak 7 to my pc.. I get MTP troubles & I cant find how to fix it & my pc shows Streak7 but wont install it & theres no drivers I can find for it...I dont get it.. didnt have these troubles when I was using Honeystreak RC2

Read through this thread to find your answer about the usb issue.

I remember it has something to do with this version of honeycomb does not support usb. Maybe someone who is familiar with this issue can comment.

R4 on wifi here. Usb works fine via MTP with win 7 ( x32 and x64 ). If you are on xp I think you need mobile device center ( the new ms activesync ). Its a free download from Microsoft.
Ok I was reading through all the stuff & I tried the activesync.. & nothing Other wise.. this rom rocks Thing is.. I dont have an SD card reader on my Pc so i HAVE to connect my streak to my pc to get into the sdcard

Try going into mmc and go to devices. Click on the yellow exclamation and update driver. Allow ms to search online for updates . You might need to uninstall old drivers first.
Here is information about mtp.

Ok, First. Let me start by saying. Thank you for all your help guys. Its nice to be on an "active" forum & where others actually help each other.
Now.. Ive done all I can to get this working & nothing.. Ive installed all sorts of drivers.. upgraded to WMP 10 Used Windows update... & STILL the system just wont let me get into my Streak. As per the pic I posted.. Device Manager see the Streak7 & MTP Yet.. I cant install ANY drivers or update them... Oh,also, just to let you all know..Im on Win XP Home w/ SP2. Only thing left ,that I can see,is to go to SP3. Gonna try that & I'll let you all know how that step went.
Thanks again all,
Xpun3414
*Update* Updating to SP3 did not help,nor any other windows updates
Have you install Dell Sync? I think the driver is in the Dell Sync for windows program.

Ok I was having issues with both my computers not picking up the dell streak or not finding the correct drivers. It would actually charge it instead of recognize it as a usb device. Try this:
- Turn off your streak.
- Hold down the volume up and volume down buttons at the same time. While both are still held down plug the streak into a wall outlet or power strip. Let it sit for about 2 minutes.
- Unplug the streak and use the pin hole next to the sd card to power off.
- Plug the streak into the computer once it is powered on and see if anything changes.
- If it still has the yellow question mark next to it try and update the drivers again.
***Side note***My computers are running vista and win. 7 and I don't have an xp computer to try and replicate the issue on. I will work with you to try and get this working though. Let me know the results of this.
Well, I tried all of the posted things guys... sync sucks.. its not even a driver its just software. Last thing to do is to go from R2 to R4.. Though I had R4 in before & had the same troubles. Im at a loss... so,its either I go back to stock or go to Honeystreak RC2 & have no flash or stay with R2/R4 & have no way to connect to my pc.. What to do,what to do.And why the HECK dont Skype work on any of them, even when Skype says it supports the 7- Just a side note, & a rant.. no need to answer that one. GRRrrr

One more thing when you complete this process if you have CWM recovery installed there is a process to get that removed. I would say attempt the first process first though. Let me know if it works. Again the link is here:

Do you have many files to transfer? You can use other methods. I use File Expert, it can transfer file from your computer to the ds7 through wifi.
Hi again all. Well,I decided to do a wipe & go back to stock.

I'll give that a go. & Naaa, what ever files I want on the 7 are small & not many. So that should be fine. Also, again.. Thanks to all of you.

And the results are in...
..Success.
Ive followed AndroidOVERALL's directions & every thing went smoothly. Im now back @ the stock Dell Streak7 Wifi only rom. And all is well. I can connect to my pc again and see/transfer files to & from. Flash works with no problems. And its not like the last "stock" rom I tried. Which was called a wifi only S7 stock rom. It wasnt.. it was a T-Mobile stock rom. But this one I have now, is the real deal. I had just one little problem when I first rebooted the S7. it keep showing as the internal sdcard was not formatted & had nothing on it... I tried to mount it that didnt work... So I gave it a run for a few minutes & then rebooted. And all was well in Streak land. The system is running very smoothly. Though I do see how it is a bit, slow? laggy? compared to the StreakDroid R2/4 or HoneyStreak RC2.But still runs good. Now if I can figure out how DJ_Steve got a full blown web browser to work as a desktop browser on it Im set
Thanks again to you all for all the great help,tips & seeing me through this. Couldnt have done it with out you all. Thank You
So...Next step.. Reroot ! & see where it goes. Wish me luck

I flashed my phone with Cognition v3.03 and now I am getting these nature noises mixed with music, the kind like you would hear on a white noise machine to relax by. So far it has happened twice. I can't figure out how to stop the "music" without having to shut the phone off and restart. I have tried to use Advanced Task Killer, which reports that all tasks have been killed but the music continues. Has anybody else had this issue.
I also had an issue with incoming calls. When I would receive a call I would get a pop-up message about com.android process has force closed. I was able to resolve this by disabling the Answering call --> Answering mode. Not sure what this was doing but my phone didn't like it. Can someone explain this.
Looks like a bad flash. Did u try restoring to stock and then flashing the ROM again. And do not restore any system data using TiBu.
Cannot flash back to stock
I have tried to flash back to stock but I cannot get any windows pc to recognize my device. I am getting USB Device Not Recognized msg. I have tried this on several Windows based machines (laptops and desktops) all running Win 7 Ultimate one is a 32bit the others are 64bit machines, multiple USB ports, different cables. I have tried un-installing and re-installing drivers. Still not able to get pc to recognize device. I can plug into my Linux laptop (my main laptop) and I can mount as mass storage just fine. I even tried to uninstall the USB ROOT HUB on one of my laptops and still getting the same issue.
Is there another way of flashing back to stock other than using Odin.
also this happens if I am in phone mode with USB debugging enabled or disabled, in download mode as well.

If ur ROM is a 2.2.1 based, u could try copying the ROM in my sig to ur sd card and installing this. This could work, if the ROM u r using too is a 2.2.1 based one.
di11igaf's rom v5.1 -big update 1/21/2011
Is this the Rom in your sig. I ask because as far as I can tell you do not have a link in you signature for any ROM.

I found, for me anyways, the source for the nature sounds during music playback. I use doubletwist as my main media player, and just recently used the whole airsync feature. While syncing, I noticed that all of the UI sounds are in the playback folder... And in those UI files are clips for rain and mist and keypress and other various noises.
It really doesn't bother me that much seeing as how the sound clips are less than half a second long and it's just a 'blip' between switching songs.
I am currently using the custom rom di11is5.1 I do like it. Thanks again for the recommendation.

Streak 7 Stuck at Dell Logo
Formatted the System and Data and reflashed the system and boot.img files but now stuck at dell logo.
No power on key combination produces any other result.
Only have two options that I can think of.
1) Somehow boot from sd card
2) Get the nvida/tegra chipset sdk which I can't find a download for anywhere
Any other suggestions?

Thanks, installing now. I called Dell and they are sending me a new one, but I would still like to resolve this so others don't have to do this.
Any tips on how to use this?
I am going to try the QDL tool that can be downloaded here: http://www.streakdroid.com/repairtool.zip
This may get me back up and running, we'll see. If so, I will post the procedure.
QDL is supposed to be a rom recovery utility that can communicate with the device in almost any scenario. Since ADB can see the device, I might have some luck.
Good luck

instead of going through all that just call dell.. play dumb and just say after the update you got stuck at the dell screen.. they will try to get it to boot in recovery but that wont work.. so then they will issue a warranty exchange.. and it's not a refirb they are sending.. it's the full retail package again I'm going to "forget" to send back the charger and have two.. I never send back the chargers to dell when I do a replacement.. so if they dont ***** about a $100 charger missing they wont ***** about a streak charger missing.. as a matter of fact with my old laptop I forgot to send the charger back and called them, they said "na, it's a minor part. Onky send it back if we contact you abaout it" They never did
But all this time you're doing all this.. you could have a new one on it's way to you with pretty much no questions asked.. just say you got the update.. it said it would reboot.. it rebooted and now youre stuck at the dell screen..

So no luck with QDL tool yet, but I did read about other devices using the method 'Volume Up + Down + plug in USB'
When I tried this my computer recognized an APX device. Will see where this gets me if I can install the propper drivers.

Found a driver that would install as NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver. Does that sound right?
I'm also in a bit over my head. From what I understand, I need to restore the boot image on the device. The NVFlash is for flashing the hardware ROM. In what way does/will that help me? Is the hardware ROM part of the boot and system images? Or is it seperate.
Thinking in PC terms, the rom would be the motherboard drivers/software and the System and Boot files would be like installing windows... Does this make sense?
Also, what is the ROM version on the Streak 7?
QDL tool is giving me this error:
ERROR[D10]: no com port found, not in dload mode.
Another question; are the boot, & system files considered "rom's" to NVFlash? Is it a matter of changing the extension to .rom?
OR, like I was assuming earlier, is the rom a totally different file?
Anybody there? I need to understand how this stuff relates to know what to troubleshoot for?

I managed to answer my earlier question about the ROM and correct me if I am wrong, but the rom is several files packed together INCLUDING the system, boot, etc.

well, windows MUST recognize the o2x as an apx device since you would use the tegra apx applications processors...
you are saying that windows sees your o2x as an apx device but nv/smart-flash don't?

Problem I have is my machine is windows 8.1 and it won't recognise my phone in fastboot mode (adb is fine)
Does anyone know if it's possible to upgrade my phone any other way that using fastboot ????
Cheers
There are sooooooooo many guides on drivers for Windows 8. Look a little harder

Thats all well & good if you have USB 3.0. But in my case I don't & I don't have that Intel(R)_USB_3.0_eXtensible_Host_Controller_Driver rev. 1.0.6.245 on this computer so I cannot install it.
How it shows when it is in fastboot.
When the phone is booted up it shows as normal as a ADB device. All I want to do is s-off the damn thing :/
same here
no usb 3 thats why it doesnt work for me.
i appreciate peoples help but it always annoys me when people say things like "go and have a look, there's loads of threads on this"
I spent about 4 hours looking last night, tried everything mentioned even though I knew deep down it wouldn't work. Dunno why some people have to be so pissy with their answers.
(nikk this isnt aimed at you)
also as well
no one has actually answered the question i asked, i get some pissy answer saying go and use the search button etc.
all i wanted to know is can you upgrade firmware any other way apart from fastboot, i.e. via twrp etc .....
if not then i'll have to rebuild an old machine with windows 7, just wanted to save myself the time thats all

It is really annoying isn't it. Something that worked perfectly fine on windows 8 fails to work on 8.1. I have tried all the different threads must be about 15 threads & 10 websites i've visited & none of them have a work around :|
You could probably get a flashable zip if you have a custom recovery if not then installing windows 7 is probably the only way, Unfortunate for me I don't even have windows 7 :|

on the 1st screen, are you not able to manually select a driver, something like Update Driver -> Let me choose -> Let me pick from list -> My HTC?
sorry if i'm wasting your time, cause it happened to me once even on Win7, and I had to manually select it. and then it worked

I got fastboot to work by installing the newest stock updates from http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-771-3-zip/
Now I can't get adb to work hahaha oh my this is annoying. I have flashed back to CM11 4.4 i can't be bothered with the hassle no more.
I have a Windows 8.1 laptop and can no longer connect my HTC One so I've decided to use Linux to use ADB to change the shell so I could run a RUU on Windows to get my phone on a stock rom... That is my level of understanding of what I want to do, but I cannot find the "code" to use in Terminal to get ADB to work... I have booted Ubunto Desktop to my usb but I havn't installed the OS, just "try"ed it... I don't know if that is an issue or not. Here are the links I have tried to use to get this to work... Which should I be following, or even better, does anybody have a step by step guide of how to get adb to work so i can finally fix this phone...

Honestly the best thing to use is a Windows 7 PC.. Anyways, what's wrong with your phone? Does it reboot every 30 seconds?
Also, there are ways to get adb working on windows 8.1, if you're like me and don't have a windows 7 computer at home all the time
Finally, you stated that it won't connect to your 8.1 PC. Do you get any error at that time? Do you have the latest HTC drivers installed? Is your cable good?
Sorry if I wrote a lot, just trying to get you up and running.
EDIT: I GOT THE PC TO SEE MY HTC ONE!!!!!!
sry for the caps, but I soft bricked my phone back in April... ( i took a lil break from fixing it... just like 2 months lol) but I just followed this link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559200 and apparently I have to disable driver sigs every time i start up? Idk cause I've dont that before but whatever, did it again, and used the adb drivers from the link and now Im connected... Decided to go balls to the wall and skip the stock rom, and straight to Viper 6.2... so after I finish the download I"ll let you know what happened...

Umm, I think that link somehow got me this youtube vid, which had the link for the adb drivers... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUjQnwULGzs
But that's the drivers I used to get my phone working on Windows 8.1...
Edit 2: Well i was able to sideload ViperOne to my phone and... it continues to reset itself... So a similar problem but now at least the phone is seen as One now, not some random usb device... and even the Internal Storage pops up when plugged in.... So now i'll prob go ahead and run the stock RUU... see if that helps any
