Recently, Dell has decieded to exit the Android device development, save a few devices in China. More importantly the Dell Streak 7 and the Dell Streak 5 were abandoned.
These devices still have a large user base who want to continue to see their robust devices still supported. The unofficial development teams featured on sites such as http://www.xda-developers.com and http://www.tabletroms.com have provided the best support they can by building and supporting Android 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and Android 4.1.1 (Jelly Bean).
The continue compilation and success of this device is dependent on Dell providing its HAL drivers for these devices and any work done on kernels not already released on its http://opensource.dell.com/ website
Please release driver source code for:
Camera
Sound
Sensors (Acceleramoter, Lights, touch)
Any kernel work that was abandoned upon the device reaching its EOS
