    I'm having the exact same problem

     

    Does your Streak recognise the charger being plugged in? Mine seems to but won't charge up, I'm assuming this means my battery is 'dead'...

     

    Can anyone help?

    Does not recognize charger or USB cable or anything - no lights coming on. And mine is definitely not the battery (was 80% charged before it happened)

     

    I found this in a forum may be you have some luck with it  :

    My Streak was running low on power last night and was coming up with the low power warning message. This morning, I powered it off (mistake), then, a few minutes later, plugged it into the mains and tried to turn it back on. Nothing happened! I took the battery out and put it back in again and tried again. It was still completely dead! So I panicked, obviously, then marched down to my Carphone Warehouse shop in town. The man in the shop then did what is apparently a well known trick of the trade; (1) he took the battery out and then plugged it into the mains and tried to turn it on. It came to life with an image of a battery with a question mark in it? (2) He then put the battery back in, and it told him to (3) push the power on button after (4) replacing the back cover (very smart!). It was fine after that. (5) He then told me to give it a good charge, min. 1 hour. So if your Streak appears completely dead, don't panic like I did, just follow steps 1 to 5 above.

    There was another suggestion : Put battery back , connect to USB and push volume down & power - check if PC is installing driver. (Mine is doing also nothing)

    Hmmm...  tried that but the " image of a battery with a question mark in it" does not come up.

    I think my phone is 'bricked'. I can't see myself ever buying a Dell again.

    Hi, I did bought Dell Streak via web site, and it not working properly. Where can I ask to send me envelope to send it to tech support center? And it was damaged. I try to search in web site, but they just can help me via phone, which is really expensive.
