Did it work? If it did can you post the steps you did?

Normally QDL wont work when bricked with fastboot erase cache, either you found a way to fix it, or it can brick in different ways and some are in fact fixable

If you dont have experience with JTAGging devices you're pretty much on your own with the streak, the JTAG points havnt even been identified yet so you'd have to find them on your own before even attempting to recover that way

Is there other way I can servive my pretty dead streak, even the process is involve teardown, cause I am not in the place cover by DELL service, and also my DELL was out of warrenty since JAN2011.

I see the JTAG announce that they can repaire STREAK dead boot, just start the software, check for update, in the update have a pinout, which I think it should show me how to connect to correct pins.

The problem is I did not find what I should buy from market for JTAGing, can I only a JTAG USB cable, or I need other stuffs. is there any way to download the JTAG software to see how it work first before we buy JTAG equipement.

another issue, I seem to see there are 2 different JTAG equipemts, RIFF-JTAG and ORT-JTAG what is all of that, could someone help me.

Recommend StreakFlash first

You are now in contact with the number 1 near bricker of the Dell Streak and I recommend you try Streakflash before you do anything:

http://streakdroid.com/?page_id=15&did=23

Once complete it will come up with blackscreen, no big deal pull the battery re-install and follow the instructions for QDL:

http://streakdroid.com/?page_id=15&did=8

That should get you back to a version that is working and ready to be updated to 1.9.0 or stock 2.2, but you will need to follow 2.2 instructions TO THE LETTER to make it work. Hope this helps.

@vanemburghj,

I could not get my DELL to reconize by PC as Qualcomm Dianostic mode(by using Vol-UP and connect the cable to PC, I have disattached baterry and put it back as instruction in streak flash forum).
