General :: Manual ROM Installation On Star S9920?
Dec 7, 2013
I have a Star S9920 unit. It's a MT65xx device - a S3Mini clone. I have TWRP installed on it but I did something universally stupid. I did NOT make a backup. So I wiped everything and now the ZIP file that was supposed to contain an updated ROM won't flash.
ZIP contents:
boot.img
DSP_BL
EBR1
logo.bin
MBR
MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt
preloader.bin
recovery.img
system.img
uboot.bin
At the time being I am unable to boot into TWRP and powering the phone up just gives me a blank black screen. I do, however, have ADB access(o.0).
Edit: Through ADB I managed to get back to recovery. ... so it's Square 1 again. "adb reboot-bootloader" gets me a blank screen and no fastboot, so I can't fastboot my system.img
P.S. A TWRP backup file from a clean ROM installtion would be heavenly Since ADB was working I used MTK Droid Root & Tools 2.4.6 to flash boot.img and recovery.img (re-flashed TWRP) I then extracted my system.img using ext2explore-2.2.71 to a local windows folder (in my case C:system ) Then I just wrote " adb push C:system /system" and watched the magic happen. One reboot later the phone was up and running.

It has come an Star A3 to my hands, with Android 4.0 and among all great things of IceCream, few Chinese apps I want to get rid of
the phone is rooted. I have flash the recovery 592zn.com_recovery_Star_A3_MT6573.img with Mobileuncle tools (included in the mobile originally) and done a Boot/System/Data/Cache Nandroid backup
Apps I want to eliminate :
Baidu input (and add the standard input keyboard)
own Chinese launcher (I have already install LauncherPro, but I would love to get rid of the Chinese one completely)
UC xxxxx (some Chinese browser)
Root Explorer (Chinese version, to be able to install the English one)
ICS 4.0 (also Chinese version)
a Chinese flash-light
a Chinese dark/light switch screen
a Chinese version of the configuration menu
so, basically to keep a clean Android. how to do that ?
I have installed:
[URL]
to be able to mount the nandroid img files in windows7-x64 but I can't see anything, it ask me to format the unit (?) similar with Daemon Tools .

I had the good idea to format the whole flash memory of my phone (Star x920). Now, I can find a lot of rom's but without nvram. So, I didn't have anymore a proper calibration ini for the signal =>no 3G.
And if I flash my phone, I must all times re-enter the Imei's. Is the nvram the same for all mtk6589 phones? Where can I find a "full rom" included nvram?
Searching for the calibration ini for my Star X920?

Star N9500, MTK6589.After an age trying to find a rooting solution that actually worked (vroot), for recovery, flash CRT 2.1 using MobileUncle Tools. It said it installed then rebooted my phone.
Alas now I am unable to boot into any recovery at all, Stock or CRT. I can only boot into Factory Mode, which doesn't seem too useful or user friendly and I can still boot my phone into Android.

I have flashed it several times until i got the ROM i needed, but in one of the wipes i did (cache, dalvik, internal storage, accidentaly deleted the backup too), i came across that is not detecting my SIM card, the usual SIM Management app is not active and i dont know how to configure it. Its like it detects the SIM is there (because it doesnt show the empty slot alert) but it doesnt give me the option to use that network.
I've read about it could be a IMEI problem but i also modded those to the default ones found on my phone, and its still not working, or should i mod them to the SIM IMEI?

I just got a Star N7189 with android 4.2.1 and the first thing I did, because it was a used phone that my dad gave me, was to perform a factory reset.My dad told me the phone was fine except the camera didn't worked, so I thought the factory reset could also fix this.
After the reset everything in the phone is fine and running without any problem except the camera. In first place there isn't even a camera icon or app, the only way I can access the camera is by sliding the screen after I press the lock/unlock button, and after a second of thinking it gives me the 'can't connect to camera' error.I haven't installed any application or anything.

I bought one Star N9500 from aliexpress and after few hours, it had the most strange thing I faced with a mtk cellphones because I tested many different chip and models but this one after I try to charge it because the low battery, when I come back I found it like power off, so I tried to switch on and the big surprise cannot switch on anymore. I did many tests like charging the battery with external charger,pressing both buttons volume + and power or volum - and power.... but nothing can make it wake up. The screen is black and no signal of life.
When I plug the cellphone, here is the most strange thing, I can hear the sound like a new device found but just after 2 secons again the sound of windows when you unplug a device and again like the first sound when u plug it, mean like u insert a pendrive and u remove it every 2 or 3 seconds but of course, the cellphone all the time conected by cable and testing different usb ports.

I'd want root access is to install Titanium Backup or a firewall to freeze/block access to a certain Chinese Android Market app. The app in question sends out a notification to feature new Chinese apps everytime the phone is given internet access and there are no options to disable it within the app itself. And since it came with the phone, it cannot be uninstalled, and of course, it restarts immediately if stopped.
One-clicks do not work-- they all result in directory/permission errors. For example, superoneclick will hang on step 7 and doomlord's method would reboot the phone without making any changes.
It would seem my only resort would be to use a different ROM, but there are no ROMs for this phone. Of course there are methods using similar MTK 6573 phones which are usually just clones in different casings, but I've read that using non-specific ROMs will result in a brick as there are slight differences.So how should I go about rooting this phone? What are the risks of using a non-specific ROM?

I have a Star/Bluebo B6000 phone which I believe is based on the MediaTek 6589T. I followed the procedure here: URL.....to set up a new ROM for the phone. I seemed to have gotten it all done properly, but the phone only stays connected for about 2 seconds. The SP Flash tool moves into the red progress bar and then just fails.
Luckily, there isn't any software damage on the phone (from the look of it).I'm trying to put in a new ROM to actually fix a previous issue where my phone remains on but when I press the home button or the power button the screen stays blank.
But the core issue is that I am unable to put in a new ROM because the phone doesn't remain connected long enough.Or is there another way to install ROMS?

I installed my usual apps after flashing Mr. X's stock+root-CIQ Tmo T989 rom.First app I usually download and run before anything is Adfree. Then Astro file manager to restore APKs. But I realized that this method left me with some older versions of the apps and they wouldn't have their market links. Yes, I could run Titanium Backup to fix them..
Anyways, suddenly I get a star icon on my notification bar. I look at it and it sends me to a website claiming I won a tablet and to chose. Code: URL...So I decided to wipe and flash again and go through the same process to see if perhaps catch who's the culprit..
It happens again this time with a plus icon..The star icon has happened twice on different occasions, only in the last week, and after installing a recent update to Adfree.
I've had one app actually hijack my my stock browser and change the search engine to some smartsearch type site, like it does to normal windows browsers

my laptop has the operating system GNU/Linux (Debian Testing) and I installed Windows XP Professional on VirtualBox. Virtualized XP recognizes USB devices mounted on the host. After, I installed the drivers for my smartphone Star S7589 and it is recognized by XP.
The problem begins with Flash Tools. When I want to start the process, after giving the button "Download" and I insert the phone without battery, then VirtualBox not recognize it and It doesn't start the installation of the ROM.
How could you recognize the phone connected to USB when it's turned off?

I was given star b94m. The phone in question is not working in 3g (in Italy)
The board housed into WCDMA / GSM (Dual Sim is) of any operator is, after a while it stops working. If you are calling .... the other party ceases to feel. If you're not in call, see the signal bar to go to RED and is not accessible. The same card placed on a older Android Phone 2. * Works perfectly.
- I thought about an APN problem .... apn rebuilt but nothing
- I brought the phone to factory preset levels but nothing.
It only works in 2g (good) I can say that the phone has a malfunction on the 3g?

Somedays back My phone just got stuck at the boot animation... So I restored it to its factory rom: upai_n9880I stock rom: 20120804_e1811_v75_jbaol1_g88. But when I went using the camera, the camera was inverted and if I turn in to lanscape, it would rotate but get inverted like in portrait mode. Now the games were also working flipped... The guy in Temple run now turns right if I tilt to the left and so forth.
So I tried flashing the phone with Taiwan upai N9880_ICS_V.01... but the issue remains. I tried reformat the flash and re-installed Taiwan Rom... the issue remians.

I bought a cheap (all I could afford) jelly bean Chinese Star N9776 phone 6" and on the whole have to report its great for the money. The only problem is that when I make a call or receive a call the ALS_PS sensor I think turns the screen off and it will not come back on until the call ends.
I have searched for answers and have found that this is a common problem. One thread suggested that if you enter the boot menu with the volume and power key you can sellect an option to disable this feature. However the menu is in Chinese !!
