Question [Q] Best ROM for Streak?

Hello, now that I have this new Streak, I would like to put a new ROM on it. Is there a location that lists the various ROMs that are available, with a description of each?

Can anyone recommend a goof Froyo build for the Streak?

Thanks!

Thanks, I have been looking at that, but didn't know it was the only option. Now I am trying to figure out how to get clockwork on it...

Thanks, I finally got it to work using Streakmod. There is a hex command that you have to add to the fastboot command that didn't show up on the tutorial I was looking at.

if you use clockwork, the guide is exactly the way you should do it, not sure about streakmod though

Honestly, I would use the QDL tool to get 309 on there, then update to the dell non carrier version of 318 and flash smokku and fard's kernel mod that will over clock your processor and give you quadrant scores of 2000

Head to StreakDroid.com and just follow the guide.

QDL tool to the "official" 2.2, and then use the StreakMod version of Clockwork and flash to DJ_Steve's 1.6.1

My Quadrant scores are now over 2500. Lovin' it.

I appreciate that you took the time to offer advice, but I have no idea what you said...

Does that mean there are more than one Streak ROM out there? I like th clean interface on DJ Steve's 1.61, but it seems buggy and I get a lot of force closes and other weird issues.

U gotta flash version 1.5.1 then factory reset using stock recovery then flash back to 1.6.1
After that it shouldnt be buggy anymore. The reason u go down to 1.5.1 is bc the later versions don't support factory reset.
