Default Issues with Dell Streak

Chuckle... Yesterday, before flying, I verified with one of my spare
Streaks that Windows 8 will recognize it. I also have an old tower
computer loaded with XP and configured with the necessary files. This
should be less than an hour of "work".

Things are on standby as the old Streak starts a tour of the western US. It's on it's way to Dan's to see if his older Windows and computer that has successfully accomplished the task can recognize this Streak.
My computer is stuck with Windows 10 and furthermore, who knows what modifications our 2yr old daughter has done to it when we're not watching!
Will update as needed.
Wade

Default Issues with Dell Streak

Dan, thank you for posting these instructions. I tried several others instructions, even max kellermans and several upgrade videos and none of them worked.

I think the issue was the version of fast boot, or perhaps trying to install cm7 first... For those having issues with the upgrade check the version of fast boot, not all of them will work apparently.

Thank you again, Dan

Default Issues with Dell Streak

By your message, can I assume that you succeeded? I've successfully
upgraded several Streaks using the files and instructions I provided
with my Dropbox links, but I've totally failed with the Streak sent to
me last week. It's my belief that it's because it's a locked AT&T
device. I have a request in with AT&T to get an unlock code but,
failing that, I'll have to return or simply trash the device.

Note: You must install Olleh before installing CM7, otherwise the
baseband frequency doesn't match the ROM and the button lights will
flash annoyingly.
