CM7 and MIUI for Dell Streak 5

Since the original CM7 thread were abandoned(or derailed on purpose) by the OP, I just want these amazing ROMs to be exposed to more people.

They are both using the DSC Team kernel. I have to thank the developers of these ROMs, as they are amazing!!!!

Developer: HPa

Both ROMs have working English interface.

Since the OP is hesitating in posting more information, so I did a little more digging myself. It lands me on the board with everything Dell Streak related in Korean.
They even have DSC/longhorn Rom discussion going on...

Their board:

Since their board uses referer check, I can't post a direct link to the CM7 thread. But any brave soul or for those who can read Korean (I can't) may give it a try.

Mini CM7 How-to:
1. Download and flash stock 407, you can find it in the General board. Read the guide by TheManii on how to flash
2. Download
http://www.mediafire.com/?ldlniz7wm6ha7s1
http://www.mediafire.com/?vprpvsarlcic7m6
and put them in your SD-Card
3. Flash Streakmod by Fastboot. Read the guide here
4. Without booting into the stock 407 rom, go in to recovery mode (both vol keys depressed) and flash the two zip files you downloaded.
5. while in recovery mode: Wipe user data, wipe user partition, wipe dalvik cache, fix permission. Reboot with both vol keys depressed.
6. Do a factory Reset while booting up with vol keys depressed. (dell factory reset method - first option of the four options)

Tips:
1. turning off boot animation in Cyanogenmod setting gives me a 20 sec boot up time with stock innerSD card, insane !!
2. It was found that Wifi-On will keep the device awake(on purpose), hence, battery draining. If you don't need wifi connection 24/7, you can use Green Power in market to override the wifi rule and only have it turned on when screen is on, and turns off the wifi automatically when screen is off. It's also customizable, that you can force wifi to stay on for specific time or if there's traffic

streakmod recovery from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=840326

1.
get ADB+Fastboot files and put the following files into a folder c:\streak
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
fastboot.exe

2.
put 407 recovery.img into c:\streak folder as well

3.
rename 407 Olleh Rom Streak_407_20707_14.pkg file to Update.pkg and put it on SD card and stick it in your streak (don't put it in any folder)

4.
turn off streak and hold down camera and power button as you turn it back on. It will show fastboot mode, press the word fastboot on the touchscreen.

5.
plug streak into pc with USB cable. If you have windows 7, it will try to automatically update drivers online, if XP and you need drivers, look in the fastboot+adb zip, there are drivers in there for various OS. Streak should indicate fastboot mode.

6.
open command prompt in windows
type cd c:\streak
type fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
type fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
as the screen blanks to reboot hold down BOTH up & down volume buttons and you will see dell boot logo followed by a text menu

7.
use up & down volume buttons to choose option "2. Software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD Card" then press camera button and follow instruction to confirm to begin flashing....

8.
phone should reboot eventually and start up into Olleh Rom in Korean. When you see 2 onscreen buttons at the bottom, press the button on the bottom right of the screen and it will let you select language and choose "English" unless you prefer Korean
You are done installing 407 Olleh Rom and can play with it before taking the next leap onto CM7.

TO GO TO CM7:

9.
remove Update.pkg from your streaks SD card.

10.
create a folder CM7 somewhere on your windows machine

11.
extract all of update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-DS-KANG-HPA-signed.zip into that CM7 folder with all folder structure(subdirectories)

12.
extract the system folder (with subfolders of course) from the gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip into the same CM7 folder ie. we want to combine all files from system folder of gapps zip into system folder of CM7 zip. We do NOT want the META-INF folder from the gapps zip. If you don't do this google apps won't work properly.

13.
highlight all folders in CM7 folder and create a new zip (say cm7.zip) and place cm7.zip on streak SD card and make sure Update.pkg is removed from SD card.

14.
extract recovery.img from streakmod recovery and overwrite recovery.img (or rename other one to 407rec.img) in your c:/streak folder where you had adb and fastboot.

15.
turn off streak and hold down camera and power button as you turn it back on. It will show fastboot mode, press the word fastboot on the touchscreen.

16.
plug streak into pc with USB cable.

17.
open command prompt in windows
type cd c:\streak
type fastboot -i 0x413c flash recovery recovery.img
type fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
as the phone reboots hold down BOTH up & down volume buttons

18.
select Update.pkg option

19.
press power button if you see Dell logo with warning triangle and you should be in recovery menu

20.
using up&down vol buttons and camera to select, select "apply sdcard:update.zip"
and then select "choose zip from sdcard" and choose cm7.zip and proceed with update.
when done press back button to go back up the menu.

21.
select "wipe data/factory reset" and proceed

22.
select "wipe cache partition" and proceed

23.
select "advanced" and select "wipe dalvik cache" and proceed

24.
back at advanced menu and select "fix permissions" and proceed

25.
back to main menu and choose "reboot system now"

26.
as the screen blanks when its rebooting, hold down BOTH up&down vol buttons and then select "Factory Reset".....

27.
wipe forehead and if you've done it right, you will soon see CM7 boot animation .

Welcome to your new Dell Streak! ENJOY!

If you prefer Streak in landscape mode most of the times, I would first go to settings/display/and enable auto-rotate which is disabled by default.
Also, in the phone dialer, tick "Enable sensor rotation" in preferences.
I would also go to Cyanogenmod Settings/Display and enable all 4 rotations as sometimes I like to use my streak upside down eg. sitting on dash in car with power cable hanging up from the streak.

*** it has been brought to our attention that there is a problem with software that samples audio thru microphone including apps like Skype and even sound recorder. To fix this problem:
1. run SETCPU from the apps drawer and set the max to 998 or lower and tick the "set on reboot" option. Allow setcpu to have superuser permissions when prompted.
2. reboot into recovery menu (press up&down vol on reboot)
3. select "advanced" and then "wipe dalvik cache" and proceed
4. back at advanced menu and select "fix permissions" and proceed
5. back to main menu and choose "reboot system now"

How To Fix Market

you have to download the cm7 zip and the google apps zip, then unzip the google apps zip and put those contents inside the cm7 zip then flash, do full wipe (data,cache,dalvic) fix permissions... then dell menu factory reset. allow it to boot up then you will see the google set up to add your gmail account for market if this guide was useful just hit thank you button and if you need further assitance on fixing this issue PM me.

For those that are having issues with GAPPS, I have installed them into the zip file, edited the GPS.conf and Hosts file, and I also removed the 2 paid apps from the original. everything else is intact and unmodified. This is only for the 160DPI version.

Changing default orientation to landscape

Ok Streakers, took the time this morning to mod my android.policy.jar to change my default orientation to landscape. I personally can't stand to use my Streak in portrait. So here's the link to download it. It's not a flashable zip, you have to take the android.policy.jar you extract and use adb push or a file manager with root abilities and put it in the /system/framework/ folder. Sorry guys, I pulled my hair out trying to make it flashable and my kungfu is not that strong. So if anyone is willing to make it flashable and post it I have no problem with it.

Streak5-Cyanogen7.2-Flashable-LandscapeDefault.zip


EDIT: Please allow me apologize to those of you that downloaded and flashed the prior zip. It was an unfinished version that I had not yet edited the updater-script file. When I myself applied the mod I did it via adb and then rebooted so I didn't test the zip... once again sorry guys. For those of you stuck at the Dell logo, flashing again should resolve the issue, remember to clear caches, and the reboot IS GOING TO TAKE awhile. Mine took @ 7 minutes and that was with zero apps installed.
