Hey,
Looking at upgrading from a HTC Touch Diamond2 to a STREAK.... a good decision i'm thinking.
But I'm curious if you think dell will keep releasing ROM updates for the streak as they are released, or do you think Android 2.2 is it?
I'm pretty confident that they will continue to update/upgrade the Streak as newer versions of Android become available. The Streak in my opinion is too new for Dell to abandon after one update. Also I am sure Dell invested alot of money into producing the Streak, and they won't to gain as much of that money and more back before they abandon it.
Plus as the docs are going to be useing it and a few more it can only be good for the streak
Thanks guy,
My NEW Dell Streak is charging right now........
and just ordered myself an OtterBox
Yeah, but its locked to AT&T (in the states), and you know they won't promote it until their iPhone fetish is over.
I noticed in digging around inside the streak, it "appears" to have a CDMA radio also, anyone know if it really does?

So, is it sounding/looking like Dell will deliver the 2.2 to the US ATT units on the 3rd? If I havent missed something very recent, they have postponed the O2 release to work out issues, meaning that, most likely, that will delay the ATT release even longer...
I bought on a Monday, returned on Wed, and repurchased on Friday thinking "official" Froyo was imminent, but find myself still waiting...$650 in, while my still Froyo-less Captivate with the jacked up GPS sits on my desk, and my wife "reminding" me every time she walks by that I didnt need a new phone...
I know I will be told to just update the Streak myself, but the stories I have read over the past couple weeks make me a little nervous, especially if there is an OTA right around the corner...
there is still plenty of unlocked phones that hasnt got the update yet, plus they did change the Dec 3 date to
eventually

Looks like it is starting to trickle out. I'll let the brave souls here kick the tires
on it and see how it is. 1.6 is working perfectly for me, and I can't afford to be
chasing down bugs with 2.2
Anyone else that has a "virgin" streak from Dell, let me know how it goes.
The only "hack" that is on mine is the *#*#703#*#* or whatever it was...to
allow unsigned apps.

Haha...that's funny about the wife's comments. My wife said the same thing about my captivate. I ended up giving it to her and flashing a 2.2 rom for her to speed it up.
I say go ahead and pull the trigger. It's easy enough to flash the stock 2.2 rom if you follow the directions in the forum. The phones amazing too. Sooooo much faster than the captivate at stock.

My sim is back in my Captivate for now...I'll give it a few more days to see what happens before heading back to Best Buy with it.
Maybe if enough people voted with their wallets, Dell woul---yeah, I almost got that all the way out
I was just telling my wife about this thread, I also had the same issue I bought the streak about to sell my captivate, had it sitting here and she's like wtf?
Anyhow, hear this, she's getting the red unlocked froyo installed Streak for the holidays!! her request not mine. I'm so jealous already she'll get all the updates before me.

Man it sounds like u have a cool wife. Wish mine knew how to make good decisions & leave the icrap alone.

My guess is going to be a "no". Dell is really bad with keeping its promise esp when it comes to android. They got a new bee team of android. Even if they have your phone updated, it is still crap and nearly unuseable. They need to hire somebody like DJ_Steve. Until then, we are screwed.
Every other brand (HTC, Samsung, LG, etc...) pushing Android out there is the same. The only phone that got Froyo pretty much on time was the Nexus One.
Samsung promised 2.2 for the Galaxy S at the beginning of October, and their official Australian release which I only just got on mine a few days ago is really a laggy POS (same as 2.1)..
HTC has only just recently rolled out 2.2 for the Desire and other phones as well. Froyo on the Desire seems to be a very polished version so they've done their homework IMO.
LG.. well forget about LG, they're all stuck on 1.6 or 2.1 forever..
You guys have to remember that the Dell Streak is Dell's flagship device, and the first of its kind that they've released. Their team would be new, and I'm sure they're learning loads about the OS. Other such brand names have no excuse, especially Samsung, who has been playing with Android for ages.
So, the fact that Dell is where they are today with froyo (and to be honest, the 315 version on my Streak isnt that bad!) it can only get better from here people.

Quote from www.streaksmart.com
I've heard some share-worthy news about the Android 2.2 update for the AT&T-locked Streak from an anonymous tipster who has a close friend who works at Dell.
The story goes that this friend recently received an email at work stating that the OTA update was going to be released on January 16th or 17th of next year (barring any further delays).

Just wondering what you think the future holds for the Streak or if there will be a future for it especially with AT&T. Will the Streak make it to Android 2.3 or 3.0? Is it considered an HD device? Will there be more accesories for it?
I ask cause I am ready to give up my 3 year old Tilt and the Streak is tops on my list for a new phone. Just wanna have something thats gonna be worth my 2 year contract commitment. Also considering waiting for something new but not sure whats coming out in 2011 for AT&T.
I am wondering the same thing. I have a tilt2 and i need to make a move. Been running xaandroid for the last 4 months ready for an android device. Size and lack of keyboard are holding me back right now.
dual core tegra phones are coming in 2011. If you can wait, and don't mind possibly something smaller (there are rumors of a Streak 2 but nothing even remotely concrete as far as I know) I would wait until summer.
The 2011 CES (Consumer Electronic Show) starts in about a week. I am sure there will be all sorts of announcements from all major vendors, Dell included. So I would look at the prospects then and evaluate the decision. I certainly hope that Streak gets a 2.3 and 3.0 upgrades in the future. Maybe they will just skip 2.3 and go straight to 3.0? Wishful thinking I know
I hope it gets it. It would be a shame if it didn't get it. I just got the streak unlocked. LOL.
Sent from my Dell Streak using Tapatalk
Having DJ_Steve around right now at least guarantees 2.3. Hopefully he keeps his Streak around until 3.0 comes out. I worry that once he gets a new and more interesting device, he will stop developing his ROMs.
I almost bought one right after I posted this. A co-worker got the Samsung Epic and it made me jealous as hell. I got a $25 Best Buy gift card and I was gonna use it on the $99 Streak deal that they have. I held out in the end thought.
Froyo reviews says that its even faster with the update.
Streak 2 is 7in so may be a bit to big who knows but the streak will not die as the Medical staff in the USA are getting them and i just read a report that the USA Army are now Testing them
Plus now it has 2.2 on Board it is blowing everything else out of the water in all Tests

I was using the Tilt2, and the Tilt before that. I bought my white streak on Dec 23rd, and there is no way I will ever go back to it. I had been holding back for a phone with a physical keyboard, but also as at least a 4.3" screen on AT&T. Been waiting for 1-1/2 years and decided it was never going to happen. Looking to sell both of them. Can't wait for 2.2..
just add a phisycal keyboard to the streak and it will be the perfect device

i think dell streak is going to last long.
THey have just released it in the asian market. Do u think they are going to stop making more in less than a month of release.
I am also pretty sure that they will release gingerbread for streak.
The support for dell streak from dell is pretty good.
We do have some people in twitter who have helped sort many things out.
1.6 was terrible and dell made a mistake there
Hwowever i am now using stock 2.2 and its almost perfect.
They might take another 6 moths to release gingerbread for att streak but i am sure in another 2-3 months they will release GB for unlocked streak..
Finally to add about new processors.
The more u wait the better it gets. However as a end user i want my phone to be stable and fast. Yes its stable and fast with 2.2 on it. and if i have 2.3 its garunteed tat its going to be faster.
So guys get it if u like the size.....

I have the US Streak with 1.6. I would be happy if Dell would get off their #$%^&
and get 2.2 out. It is taking them so long that I probably will never buy another Dell Product. I know I can fiddle/faddle with it and get 2.2 from this forum, but I would just rather get the official OTA from Dell/ATT
With a physical keyboard and 2.2 it would be a flippin netbook!

For the four of you who might actually care T-Mobile has officially discontinued the Dell Streak 7 tablet and Dell Mini 10 HSPA+ capable netbook. The Dell Streak 7 was introduced back in January during CES and was quickly overshadowed by the upcoming G-Slate. Met with mixed reviews the Streak never took off as T-Mobile’s first 4G tablet and the Dell Mini 10 appealed to the Netbook loving crowd who unfortunately got tempted by the sudden rise of tablets. In any case both devices have met their inevitable end on T-Mobile and we bid them farewell. They are gone and mostly already forgotten.

Dell really needs to step their game up. Can't they see that their customers aren't happy with their products?
Actually as a Dell customer I am very happy with my Dell products. I accept that they have some flaws though.
The Streak 7 needed a better screen and advertisement.
The Streak 5 needed to open with 2.2 and advertisment.
Both devices could have been really big wins for Dell, but Dell squandered the hype generated around the initial launches with poor communication to the buying public.
Well on that note I love my dell streak but seems that in the real world dell products ain't doing to well. For T-Mobile to drop dell is a pretty big thing.

Correct. Problem is Dell sucks at advertising....
The Dell Streak 5 would of sold a hell of a lot more if it was ADVERTISED!!!
I'm surprised at the amount of people who have never heard of it.
Infact EVERYONE I know have never even heard of it....
When friends, colleagues at work & even strangers see my Streak, they ask:
1 - What is that? Is that a laptop?
2 - Is it Dell? I never knew dell make phones
3 - Is it Lg or Samsung?
4 - Is it a large tablet?
5 - Is it Apple ipad?
Truth is Dell sucks at design, advertising, build quality and customer support
If I wasn't into hacking/modding I would hate the streak. If I didn't know about things such as launcher pro or other aftermarket launchers I would hate the streak because stage is so buggy and limited. Besides the few hundred streak owners who visit xda and other forums, I'm sure anyone else who bought the streak was probably displeased. Dell is in trouble if they can't up their quality, updates, etc. otherwise they'll never catch on in the mobile world.

It isn't necessary to do a lot of hacking/modding to get a very enjoyable device out of the Streak. Replacing the Stage home app would do it for most people. Rooting and getting rid of the unnecessary stuff would be the nest thing I would do (especially if on an AT&T locked device).
We have owned five Android phones (seven if you count my brief defetion to US Cellular) and my wife's current HTC Inspire is the only one that I haven't needed to tweak. BTW - the Inspire is still running Android 2.1, so Dell has updated the Streak to a later version of Android than what is arguably the best Android device that AT&T currently sells has. I don't see the reason for the complaints about the lack of updates. Of course I did not buy the Streak when it shipped with 1.6, so I didn't have that 6-7 month wait for the first updates to roll out.
I also think that the build quality of the Streak stands up to other phones I have owned or tried out.
My Streak came, carrier unlocked, with Android 2.2 and with the updates that Dell has put out it would be a very good device even with no tweaking. Like many - one of the reasons I like Android is that I can tweak/customize my phone easily.
Good point, Marvin...... My Streak is also factory-unlocked with factory-installed Froyo.... only thing I've done to it was to immediately delete Dell's "Stage" widgets and install "Launcher Pro" (to increase the number of shortcuts on home pages)... and I'm VERY pleased with my non-rooted Streak..
I've two horrifying experiences with "rooted" phones (both phones would eat through a fully-charged battery in less than 3-hours)..... and all for what, a millisecond faster response time? Frankly I just don't see the point, especially if it's your primary, high-investment-dollar phone (but I do have fun swapping ROMS on an old "backup" HD2 I have) LOL

In the case of our unit, don't you actually have to market the damn thing if you want Android to meet your expectations?
Dell has yet to market ANY of it's mobile devices,
strangely though the venue pro is doing a lot better then the venue, even though the venue pro had a really hard start in life.
It might be the largest userbase behind the s5, though granted the wp7 market has a lot less devices overall so it's not as diffucult to not be flooded by millions of devices unlike on android
I gave up waiting for 2.2, I gave up completely for 2.3, I gave up on the update to the streak, I'm GIVING UP on Dell. Samsung note will be my next device when it hits the states.
I think Dell was trying to sell its mobile phones using the same sales model they used when selling PCs. They didn't take into account the many, many more variables that affect mobile phone purchases (carrier first, then platform, then leading edge hardware). They, I think, wrongly assumed, "People are buying alot of Android phones, and since we're Dell, if we make them, people will buy them". Let Dell go back to Microsoft.... I mean they've been in bed together for decades..... Mr. Dell just is reluctant to admit fault.... "We're Dell..... no one is buying our phones so it MUST be Android's fault" LOL

It would help if they actually followed the development cycle and released the updates, where is 2.3.3, 2.3.4 and so on?
A device stuck with a older version of the OS is always going to be less popular.

Yeah, thats exactly it
There is this saying don't hate the player, hate the game. I think. But in this case , its the other way around Yeah, people that cant admit there made a mistake, not updating the software, or at least doing some market hype.
It seems like Dell isn't very appealing because of the style, and its openness to software. Plus , back then Android wasn't that popular that you can could sell a heavy 5" phone, But now days with the right specs, you just watch ...
In short, they are too lazy, There going for the surely win route, I think. Thats why they are going for the Win8 tablet.
Dell must have new PR manager
if dell stepped up the hardware, maybe some IPS, super AMOLED+, 8+MP cam anyone? make Streak 7 a bit thinner.. release with stock Android and get updates out on time, and maybe unlock bootloaders, etc. oh yeah and advertise!! They could be moving units.. Streak 7 likely last piece of anything Dell I own for a good long time..
One thing I will say, however, is my cousin has the Dell WindowsPhone "Venue Pro".... and that phone is truly a THING OF BEAUTY (no kiddin). I've read on more than one reputable site that it may in fact be "the best WindowsPhone available" (believe it or not). Not only is it extremely well-made, but it feels like you could drive nails with it and not hurt it. Such a shame it's running that G-damned lame-as-**** Windows OS.

Personally I will never buy another windows phone. Was very glad of the android transition to revert, even if windows "finally" did something about their quirky, sticky, freezing between processing and my alltime fav "random non-response touchscreen moments".
But Dell F'd up once with bad promo and had monkies doing their PR. Dell f'd a secomd time making the announcement about. "Dell has pulled the streak from its current inventory ...stay tuned for a special announcement.." Leaving us to believe our trusty ole Streaks were called in for some "innerds overhaul" only to hear that its been pulled from the U.S. market.
Dell f'd a third time releasing a DELL STREAK PRO, much smaller screen and device, looks like a cookie-cut replicate of most other phones, lost all its streak5 features.
I am looking for info on how to get my hands on the ViewSonic tab/phone.
Time to put ole Dell out to third-world pastures
Personally my opinion is not one to count on Dell's conscious but here it goes, first of all they didn't even make the product they just slapped their name on it and try to get as many sales as they could two once their product crashed on 2.2 faster than an angry bird into a wall they knew if they didn't pull it they would get a bad name and three dell doesn't care about their customer cause if they did they would admit to making a bad product and see how they can go ahead and fix their problem extend warranties on bad units, fix 2.2 issues an apology for stealing your money oh wait it's not stealing it's business. Okay well from now on Samsung has my business and I will steal from Dell by letting one know everytime they see my Streak "what the hack is that thing" saying the worst investment you can ever make"
@Chamo4u2: Dell's conscience and the fact they only put their name on the Streak aside, I'd like to find out where you get this impression they pulled the Streak because of crashes. Now I've owned a Streak since April. It came with 2.2.2 347 preinstalled. In that time frame I've upgraded the ROM to 351 and 360, after having to reinstall 347 twice due to mistakes I made in tweaking the ROM for my tastes. At no time have I encountered force close issues, thus I don't believe their ROMs are the problem. Since my experience flatly contradicts yours, what is different about your Streak compared to mine?
The Streak was discontinued in the original countries where it was released. Dell has released the Streak in Asian countries this year, meaning for those countries the Streak is new. If the Streak were pulled because of software problems, Dell would not have released it in Asia. Thus your statement that the Streak was pulled due to crashes is demonstrably false.
The Streak is actually a decent device that was saddled with poor marketing decisions made by Dell. Of course this assumes that the Streak was actually marketed, when we know it wasn't. Had Dell put any effort into promoting the Streak in television commercials, had put Streaks in AT&T stores, and had actually sold the device with 2.1 from the start instead of 1.6 we likely would not be having this discussion.
Despite the lack of marketing and despite Michael Dell's comments, apparently Dell does still care about the consumers. As most people reading this forum know, Dell released the sources to a Gingerbread kernel. According to DJ Steve those sources have been in his possession for over a week now. With Dell releasing the kernel, can official Gingerbread ROMs be far behind?
P.S. You've got to work a bit on the punctuation buddy. I almost ignored your post because I had so much difficulty reading it.

I'm with Strephon...... I've had my factory-installed Froyo Streak since last April and it's been one of the most stable Android phones I've ever owned (seriously).... And I've owned EVERY T-Mobile Android phone available (MyTouch Slide, MyTouch 4G, Nexus, G2, LG G2x). I blame the US Streak's downfall on non-existent marketing and offering it carrier-subsidized only on aTnT. Up until they lost iCrap exclusivity, they would actually try and talk new customers out of buying anything Android (I witnessed this myself).....

I experienced that firsthand, and got so pissed I left the store. If there is one thing I cannot stand it's being lied to, and the AT&T "salesperson" did exactly that in trying to dissuade me from going with Android.
Pledging support for Microsoft and Windows 8,
That's the key phrase there, it means they've done a deal with M$ and knocking Android is a way of passing the buck for their past failure on to Google.
