[REF]Everything you wanted to know about the streak (WIP)

WARNING ABOUT NVFLASH: Do not flash any nvflash payloads that contain a p23.img or p24.img as these contain your device unique data. Flashing someone elses p23 or 24 will change your Service tag, MAC addresses and IMEI. Intentionally changing your IMEI is ILLEGAL in many countries.

Pretty sure if you flash p22.img it wipes your external SD card as well.

 

[TheManii]

It does, but that's slightly beyond the scope as it's 'merely' userdata and hopefully back up else where.

Device data is completely unique to a device

 

[giveen]

Just saying, some people might not want their SD card wiped where they have their titanium backup

The Streak 7 makes a very fine navigation device for your car. I use sygic and have built a wooden holder for the streak.
