If you have some sort of recovery on there, I suggest you wipe and flash a stock rom. Then figure out what went wrong.

do you have an idea where to find the offline charging animation of starmobile units? mine got messed up when i flashed an offline charging animation from some other forum. now my phone wont charge when it is turned off.

Offline animation
Need to check which one do you need....
Did you flash the rom of boot animation through CWM or using sptools? If neither of the two, then what tool and how it happened?
Btw, If you plug the usb in the unit while its off, does it indicate a red light?

i successfully rooted installed CWM and backup the entire ROM (not nandroid) of this device, I am willing to upload it if you want, maybe flushing back the stock rom will restore your phone in normal state...

Hi chleoj,
I potentially bricked my phone. My emmc is unmountable. Do you mind uploading your backup Stock ROM? I'm getting pretty desperate. I wasted a whole day already on this and I'm still getting nowhere.
Edit: I scoured the forums already, and I've concluded that it's irrecoverable via cwm. My only hope is with SPFlashTool img. Please please please help me!

It will definitely solve your problem, I was asking if you can access your CWM, because I also have unmodified nandroid backup...
I would suggest that you might want to try that first...
just put that nandroid backup on /sdcard/clocworkmod/backup...
Uploading now...

Thanks! I sent the thread starter an email, requesting a custom EBR for SMDiamondv7. I hope he would kindly have the time to make it.
Btw, There seems to be one tiny wrinkle with my restoration. When I go to settings, under the Storage menu - I can't seem to get the Phone Storage to mount. It keeps on getting unmounted?
Edit: Fixed the PhoneStorage problem by mounting my phone on my PC and formatting the internal storage [Fat32] using Disk Management! It's all good now!

Hi! I too can't reply yet through the development section of the forum [new-account limitations. Your files from mediafire and tut have been very useful. Your custom firmware is really great though there is still some minor glitches (usually the screen led turning off but not often just in very occasional manner). I really had been hoping you could lead me to the solution to my problem.
My phone does not show baseband version as well as imei. I've tried so many solution from diff thread but most does not work. I haven't been able to see this thread before only the 2 major dev. (which are rooting and the flashing).
I had failed to restore a backup of my old rom and system/user files because ignorantly at fault, I formatted the sd card though CWM, (i just re-mounted the rom zip to flash rom). But then, it seems flashing alone will not restore baseband and imei.
I'm thinking if it could help me restore baseband version and imei using a backup from another diamond V7 device (maybe you can give link).
I would try it by tonight using the system & userdate img from your mediafire page, and will post back if anything positive or negative came out. I'm crossing my fingers to fix the baseband and imei problem. Hope to hear from you. Thanks!

No luck for today. Using SP flash tool to flash system.img and userdata.img did not fix the unknown baseband and imei. Hope there was actually other way to fix this conflict. Thanks xda-developers.com and more power!

Visited the store last saturday to fix my unit due to imei issue. Luckily, under warranty, no fees charged and issues fixed. After having flashed the stock rom from manufacturer, I immediately made a backup of my rom and flash the modded S4 UI by chleoj.
The flashing was a success but the issue persist. I now have my imei but network connection seems off. I can connect to the wifi router and even through mobile data connection but cannot access the web. I am not sure what was the cause so I decided to re-flash the backup of stock rom.
Using the stock rom, no issue was noted. I can connect successfully to a network and even access the internet. I also notice that there was some system changes which was a different baseband version, it is now MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V6.P.13 which was used to be MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V6.P.8. Just maybe, the different baseband version can fix issues experienced from the modded ROM with S4 UI.

my starmobile was also bricked when i use a repartition tool, im not able to go to the homepage it will just stuck on starmobile logo. i tried to use the spf tools nothing happened even if i installed all the drivers.. it just says error on scatter file something..im kind of frustrated on this one. hope someone will help me on this.

hi pls reply where i can find a starmobile diamond v7 spareparts for front camera ?cause my v7 doesnt have front camera the flex is broken

[Q] Accidentally wiped my system.. Help!!!

1st of all, i am a beginner. Just brought my android ics phone last month. I also rooted my phone by the help of my friend last week. But yesterday i was trying to restore factory settings. But i accidentally wiped my system. And now my phone wont boot. It stuck in BootScreen. Nothing happens then. I dont have the backup of my rom. what to do now ??? Please help!! Sorry for my bad English & Thanks in advance who wanna help me
..

What recovery are you using? Even if you wiped the phone you should still have it running. All you need to do is reboot in recovery mode. Hard to tell you how as I dunno what the phone is.
Before that you'll need to download your stock firmware and put it on the root directory of your SD card if you have one, so that once in recovery you'll actually have something to flash.
If the phone doesn't have a SD slot, then you'll need to use a recovery tool on your PC to flash it.
Right now shut the phone down, remove the battery, find some guides specific about your phone, and read them carefully. There's a reason why we're using recoveries. First thing you should have done is to backup your stock firmware somewhere on your computer or on the cloud, and make sure you knew how to use it if something like that was to happen... Little late for that now.
When you'll know what to do, just mind that you still have enough battery to flash the stock ROM. Come back to ask help here if there's something you don't understand. Good luck!

No problem. Just install this partition manager free. It is perfectly adapted for windows 8. And you are offered a variety of options which can swap/merge/separate new partitions. With a very easy-to-understand instructions, everything is perfect!

Thanks for kindly reply

[Q] Does just booting into CWM affect the android device?

Hi
So I really like android, used it for about 2 years. However, I never got a chance to see how CWM worked. I did see some videos, and they went into recovery (which i know about), and selected "CWM.zip". Does just booting/selecting this affect my android device? Also, if I use "Backup and Restore", would that affect my device, if I just backup, not restore? Does it need root? Sorry I just wanted to know
Also, I looked on the fourms but could not find anything with my search. Please tell me if something like this exists Also, I already saw http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587607, but that did not answer my question. (Srry I am new the the fourms so....)
