STAR-i9220 :

https://www.dropbox.com/home/i9220-pad?select=signed_star-i9220_data2.5g_v2.zip

Decompress the zip , the boot.img is attachment

STAR-N8000:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/fjan91qeo3okdkf/signed_STAR-N8000_DATA2.5G_V2.zip

Decompress the zip , the boot.img is attachment

Please help to make the English version Recovery and improve the backup/restore function !!

and remind: this version boot.img had to add the command to mount /sdcard to /data.

so please help to add the command for wipe data-> wipe the internal storage : /dev/block/mmcblk0p4

I need help! I have a model i9220+ CWM (custom recovery) can not find this model! From 9220 does not fit, is not loaded into the menu! :confused:
[Android General] Resquer:
I can't download. Are you sure, you posted valid link?

There are 2 variants. The first - CWMR with full backup supported.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/oa5jxv4kyxipda4/CWMR_touch_Star_N8000(BM)_full.rar

The second - CWMR with full backup, except boot, recovery, misc.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/mu4pwmtvx1tsk03/CWMR_touch_Star_N8000(BM).rar

I have I9220PAD, only second variant is working with my device, I don't know why.

Do not forget to backup your current recovery, it is not tested by myself, because I do not have such device.

And I see, you posted patched version of firmware for N8000, with mmcblk0p4 for /data instead mmcblk0p3. This CWMR version only for original firmware, backup/restore in your patched firmware is not supported, because you use different partition for /data.

You can use my patch for repartiton for I9220PAD... https://www.dropbox.com/s/i1tsq68870cdpy6/Repartition_I9220PAD.signed.zip

I think, it is compatible with your device, because MBR and scatter file are same.

It is also compatible with HaiPai I9220.

Do not forget to backup all important data!! Revert to original partitions - only by full flashing via cable!!

After repartiton, you will have 2Gb of internal memory and 500Mb of internal sdcard. Do not forget to return your original vold.fstab, if you changed it. ;)

And make backup before repartiton, after you could restore from it.

TF card not recognized

Hello,

i received yesterday my new HaiPai Noble i9220 and started to flash the phone.

It has orginally the 14th May Rom and after flashing the 2,5gb *.zip it does not recognize the micro sd card. In cwm menue it does. i tried both variants the Repartition_Haipai_ I9220.signed.zip and the signed_Haipai-i9220_data2.5gV2.zip. What i'am doing wrong. First i flash the CWM_recovery_HaiPai_I9220(BM).img with the SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1206.01 after that i flash the 2.5gb zip from cwm menue.

maybe someone can help and expain the exact flash procededure.

Thanx

Great Forum with great work.
[Android General] angelobiz:
@mxraider

now...

you flash a full stock firmware...

after you flash the CWM recovery...

ok this..

after

you can flash my update.zip and you have a good firmware thanks to bugsfix of yiminghung and have 2.0gb of memory thanks to repartion of Resquer

or

you can flash with CWM file signed_Haipai-i9220_data2.5gV2.zip, and you will have a interna memory of 2,5gb for apps and a external SD1. you can not see anymore the SD2, it is normal.

it is ok, but for now CWM recovery don't work for make backup od your data

or you can flash the Repartition zip of Resquer, and you have a 2gb of internal memory, external SD1 and 512mb as SD2.

whit this for now, you can make a backup of your data with CWM.

you always can came back to stock firmware flashing it again

Thank you for explanation! I want to compile CWM from source - and later all system :-) But I dont know settings for config. I just try - and error. Due to proprietary code in kernel I cannot compile kernel at all. I just copy it from other recovery.img which I disassembled. I use un/repack-MT65xx.pl from xda.

recovery binary file is completly new build from source so I can make changes in future if nesessary.

Problem installing star n8000 drivers

Hello,

Thank you for your help :-)

I don't understand why but when i try to install my star n8000 drivers (i tried with 2 differents pc XP) it fails :-(

- usb debuging is ON and battery is in the phone wich is ON

- i plug usb cable on the phone and windows reconize it as "Android Phone 65xx"

- i select drivers in the xp directory from archive (unarchived) with mtk6575 drivers

- windows immediatly stop process and windows message expaines that windows couldn't install drivers etc...

Do i forget something ?
[Android General] thihaz:
try this?

shut down your phone

take out your battery

plug your phone to your computer

put your battery back

do you see anything such as unknown device in your device manager?
[Android General] thihaz:
there are 2 flash tools

one is with port and the other is without them, you just only need to add scatter file (you can see the attached file how the flash_tool window looks like)

why don't you try with the latter one?

you should be able to find it in 7 may firmware.

use this Flash_tool.exe that comes with this folder

download the firmware

firmware was uploaded by zbeyuz (thanks bro)

1. run the Flash_tool.exe

2. add MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt from firmware files folder

3. press download

4. take out your phone battery, plug it to your computer, put your battery back into the phone

5. you should be see some changes on the flash_tool windows, downloading something, flashing something, wait until you see green OK popup windows.

6. unplug your phone, take out your batter and put it back, and press power button.

hope this help you resurrect your phone.

good luck

[Android General] thihaz:
sometimes you need to install 2 drivers.

one that comes with the firmware files.

the other is that comes with android sdk

so you may want to try both.

you can get the android sdk at http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

after i installed all the drivers, what i tried is I open the device manager,

shutdown my phone, take out the battery, plug the phone to pc, put the battery back, you shouldn't see any unknown device, if you still see any unknown, try to install it the drivers.

OR turn on your phone and plug in with your pc, see any unknown device? install one or the other driver.

You are safe as long as you don't see any unknown device because of you plugging in your phone to the computer.

Sometimes I have to install the drivers a couple of times. :D

Don't ask me why because I don't know :D

good luck buddy

btw, you don't need to shutdown your phone when you root yours.

I will tell you if process root is ok for me

that doesn't work... I guess I have a problem with the firmware because when i connect my phone it keeps playing the connecting/disconnecting sound and the port shows this name: USB Single Port (COM6)

What should I do?

[edit] ok, I tried to use firmware flashing tool. Now the red precess bar arrives at 100%, then a disconnected usb sound, and it says "connect usb cable in 15 seconds" and then a box appears in whic it's written:

SP FLASH TOOL ERROR (8100):

[Android USB] Cannot find USB Port

Ok I changed the drivers: I used the ones suggested by thihaz (thanks) now I think the drivers are correct. But if i try to flash the firmware, a window pops up and says:

there is 2 drivers that you must install for manage mtk6575 phone:

ADB Android driver

which this driver you can use adb, see the memory etc etc... and it is active when your phone in on

Preloader serial port

this driver create a virtual serial port for flashing phone... it is active only for few second when you plug usb cable in your phone...

wait... flashed with flash tool??? how? you don't used CWM recovery?

but why you want restore imei? when do it reset? when you flash update.zip or all firmware?

you can try this if you want:

so you reset mbr to original condition

[2]flash custom recovery

[3]flash this Taiwan101_Haipai-i9220_V.01.zip by yiminghung

http://www.4shared.com/zip/F8qGV8z2/...i9220_V01.html

so you have a fix firmware

[4]flash this Repartition_Haipai_ I9220.signed.zip by Resquer

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?5p4ckfcp6ddtwax

so you have a new mbr with 2gb memory

let me know if it is ok
