Default Please help...I'm stuck at updating my Streak... - 09-02-2010, 08:56 PM



11-Once you're in the right place, type fastboot.exe -i 0x413c flash recovery c:\recovery.stock.img and hit Enter.
12-When you see "Download RECOVERY Done!" on the Streak, remove the back cover and pull out the battery.
13-Replace the battery and back cover. Hold the volume up and down buttons down while pressing the power button and choose option 2 from the menu that will appear.
14-Relax for a few minutes and wait for the Streak to reboot. You'll see the O2 splash screen because—drum roll—you've got the stock O2 ROM (build 4399) running on your Streak.

So I have managed to get to step 13 and then I get boned... Once I reboot and choose option 2 "software upgrade via Update.pkg on SD card"

When I select option 2 nothing happens and I get this prompt: "to perform an emergency software recovery, you will need to insert a microsd card containing an update file. (/sdcard/update.pkg)

Arg. Please help. I have the update.pkg file on my sd card. I just dragged and dropped it into the sd card. Do I have it in the wrong place?

I believe it was the original leak. It's working great. No hiccups. So much better. Why Dell didn't include this at launch is beyond me.
