[Tool] Dell Streak - MultiRecoveryFlasher v0.8 - [MF - MBF] [Update:7th JUL]

Thanks for your hardwork UK sheep, but I am having a problem. I installed v4 but I am only getting the stock recovery menu. I had no problems downloading your tool and installing my version (318) was easy. I am sure it is me but someone please tell me what I am doing wrong

I have a question. I am currently on streadroid 1.9 would I be able to go to 351 stock recovery by just flashing the 351 recovery on here and updating with the latest firmware? By the way my streak was on att 1.6 but now on 1.9 dj steves.

After the StreakModRecovery flash the Streak reboot. If the buttons begin to light up you must press vol+ vol-. Then 2. with Camerabutton.

Yes

Don't see why it cannot be converted for a mac

UKSheep can you look into it please or if you haven't the time i will see what i can do

I've added support for Linux and Mac by creating a shell script and adding the fastboot binaries for Linux and Mac. I haven't tested on Mac, though, as I don't have one handy.

BTW, thanks, UKSheep, for the utility. I updated the version to 0.5 to keep it separate from your v0.4.

I tried this tool (V4), but it didn't work. I would fastboot and start the tool, select option 8 ( for 2.2.2/351 ), and itwould flash the recovery tool, but that's it.

Was I supposed to already have the update.pkg for 351 on my SD card?

I finally created the update.pkg file, and flashed recover 309, then updated that way, but I"m curious how this file is supposed to work if it doesn't have the version file update.pkg file.

OK i finally flashed the recovery for 351 (i had to run the program in C: and manually update the driver for fastboot to recognize) so every thing went fine- the streak said recovery downloaded then it rebooted (i have the 351 update.pkg in my sd card) i then went into recovery(holding both vol keys n power then second option) to flash official 351 but there was an error boss or something which i think is the baseband error still i am on official 340 rooted i have never had dj steves or nothing else originally came from official at&t 1.6 . Can some please point me in the right direction it would be gladly appreciated thank you all

The recovery image will be overwritten by the stock recovery each time you restart your phone if you are on a stock ROM. You need to rename the file install-recovery.sh to something else (such as install-recovery.sh.bak) to prevent this. The file is in the folder etc and you need root access to rename the file. You can use root explorer or an alternate method to rename the file.

Also the first screen will appear the same. You have to select option 2 on the first screen to see the streakmod options. See this picture gallery.

should i do this if i flash from 340 stock recovery to 351 stock recovery in order to update the official 351 update.pkg?
update:just finished installing perfect by holding the volume keys right after the 351 recovery flash first boot ............so I'm guessing that by renaming install-recovery.sh could of also done the trick but who knows i didn't go that route anyways thanks to everyone who make this awesome stuff possible for noobs like myself.....351 is a big step from 340 at least for me the internet is so much faster and stage UI is even more beautiful and way faster and responsive..................one problem still since 340 is the market makes the data connection flicker for some reason at startup but fixes itself after a few seconds not a huge deal but kinda of a bug so again i ask for direction i seen a few people with the same problem but no solution thanx again.

I've updated my phone numerous times by putting the update file on the SD card and using a file explorer to run the package. I just used this program again to put on the 351 recovery then held vol up/down and updated through that and my phone has been on the dell logo for close to 30 minutes now.

I'll test it on the mac and let you know what I find.

I am guess I need to do this so my streak stops going into the default recovery mode, but when I tried renaming the file I get a "renaming error". I have tried other names but it still doesn't work. I must be missing something but I can't figure out what.

You have to mount the folderread/write instead of read only.

Using Root Explorer there is a button to toggle this at the top of the screen.

Using File Expert (a free alternative) you browse to the /etc folder:

tap Menu key->More->Mount->Mount as Read Write

Streakmod is cwm but altered for the streak isn't it? I've never had the need to use cwm. Streakmod always worked.

Hi all,
I am currently running the streakdroid 1.9 with baseband version GAUSB1A131800-EU

I have downloaded / extracted v5 then flashed the following two options while under fastboot.

8 for baseband 351 android 2.2.2
AND
sr to put Streak Recovery back on my device after overwriting the baseband.

after doing the above my baseband doesn't change? (i.e. baseband remains the same GAUSB1A131800-EU) am i correct to say that my first flash was unsuccessful?

can someone who has done this successfully advise what the correct baseband should read after running the flasher?

I read in an earlier posting that you need to drop the 351.pkg onto your sdcard before running the flasher.
I tried that as well... downloaded 351 (188mb) / renamed to update.pkg / copied file to root folder of my SD card / ran the flasher bat file however i ended up with the same baseband...

It would appear the flashing is working correctly as i noticed by flashing option 8, i would lose CWM/Streak recovery then running the tool to flash SR or CW option would restore the recovery console.

Thoughts, ideas?
My streak has been rebooting itself intermittedly and which is the reason i would like to update the baseband to 351 as i rather the device becomes much more stable after the update

Cheers

Buddy Here is what you do..

-Choose option no8 on the recovery flasher.
-When it boots go to stock recovery (vol up and down and poweron) and flash the update.pkg from your SD card (option no.2)
-You dont have to go back to StreakMod Recovery unless you want to put a custom ROM like DJSteves 1.9.0..

thats it..I think the problem you did was you flash recovery for 351. and then flash to StreakMod..that wont change your baseband. You have to flash the "update.package" on recovery 351 not on StreakMod.

try it again and goodluck

bendjlee · May 14, 2011

Ah... Ok that make sense. so I need to revert my recovery to stock (option 8). flash 351 normally. Then after that its up to me if I want to drop a custom rom on top (i.e steves thread)
