[REQUEST] Dell Streak has a virus, NEED HELP !!??

[mylexon20s]

Hey guys!
I need some help. A friend of mine came to me with a Dell Streak 7. The streak currently has 2.2.2 on it and at first seemed to be pretty stable. However, after navigating a bit on it, things were constantly force closing and crashing.

So I decided to do a factory reset, first through the settings, and when the Streak turned back on, everything was still the same. So my next try was through fastboot. Did full facory reset including user data, looked to work fine, until it turned on and it was EXACTLY the same!! I tried gingerroot to get root and then flash a new ROM and hopefully wipe it that way, but NOTHING, has work.

I am pretty good at this stuff and never ran into this type of problem. If ANYBODY has any ideas on how to get this completely wiped back to factory or even rooted with a clean boot image, i'm all ears!!

Thank you in advance for any information you guys can offer!!

If you have an idea on how to re-flash this thing back to stock for a friend, put in your 2 cents, if not, go troll somewhere else

Well, thank Dell but you can't reset using the Android tools, you have to use their custom recovery to do it. Which is why it's exactly like it was, and it'll remain that way. You'll likely have to send it into Dell.

And yeah, douchebaggery is tagging your thread with "virus".

Restore to factory settings using nvflash the instructions r preety straight forward. Here's the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1018809&highlight=nvflash

Just follow the instructions if ur not sure read them again and again. If u don't understand some of the terminoly just Google the search terms ull be OK.
