STAR / ALPS U9501 Both MTK6589 and MTK6582
WARNING: Please make sure your phone is the exact same model & specification before flashing anything to your phone. Just because it looks the same does not mean it is the same phone. There are many many phones of this type with different hardware such as camera's, screen's & different RAM sizes and ROM sizes of which many are faked!! If in doubt do not flash anything.

First things first Read this entire post before you do anything!!
Backup Backup!
I cannot stress enough the importance of getting a full backup of your phone's stock ROM before you begin flashing tweaking or anything else Generally there is no, zero, none, manufacturer support for these devices so unless the seller made a full backup of your device you are screwed if something goes wrong :crying: SO getting a backup should be your very first step.
As said earlier there are many many variations of this phone I am sure with all kind's of different hardware configurations such as CPU, RAM, ROM, CAMERA and SCREENS so it's important to get your phones factory ROM Backed Up the most important things are the uboot.img boot.img it's also a good idea to have a stock recovery.img :good: The uboot and boot.img are what contains your phones specific hardware configuration such as the list above so providing you maintain your stock uboot and boot.img you will always be able to get these things working correctly. :highfive:
Caution: Not all is as it may seem I purchased two phones from different sellers on ebay both phones claimed to be the exact same specification MTK6589 1GB RAM 8GB ROM 720 x1280 screen res.
When the phones arrived they looked identical and I was very impressed with the general quality and the quick, smooth & responsive ROM.
So I set about getting them both rooted.
MTK Droid tools reported one phone as MTK6582 so after backing up and rooting I looked through the rom and found a script called "agold_cheat_evaluating_software.xml" This script fools all benchmark testing softwares into reporting any MTK6582 and even an MTK6572 device to be reported as an MTK6589 with a CPU frequency of 1.2ghz the rom also affects mobileuncle. This just demonstrates that you must proceed with caution
I was in middle of writing a tut to show Noob's how to best achieve a full backup when I came across this most excellent Tutorial by @rnovino on pinoyscreencast.net. :highfive: http://pinoyscreencast.net/get-stock-rom-romdump-mediatek-mt6582-via-mtk-droid-root-tools/
Please follow his instructions according to your true CPU type the MTK6589 is in the video and some extra steps are required for the MTK6582 version which he explains in post :victory: I thank him for saving me so much time and effort :laugh:
He has also linked and listed the tools and drivers required
MTK Droid tools will show the true CPU you have in your phone so a massive thanks to @Rula1 for his awesome work on this tool Please hit his thanks button. Here
Posting on this thread:
Please do not QUOTE large posts in full :crying: only QUOTE the relevant part and delete the rest. Use The Hide button when posting large amounts Code or text if someone has requested it. As one guy said on xda after someone quoted a large TUT “Dude you owe me a new mouse wheel” LOL
Thanks:
Use the Thanks button if someone has helped you. :highfive:
Manners:
Being British most of us are polite and I expect you to be too. My Mother always said “son remember manners cost nothing but they will get you a long way in life”. :angel:
Helping yourselves:
Please try to help yourself as much as you can. Google Search is your Best Friend so please use it in the first instance. :highfive: I will do my best to help where I can but I am no top developer so try not to get too techy on me. I will try to explain things in plain English for the less experienced and experienced to understand.
TWRP V2.5.0 Recovery for MTK6589
Well I finally managed to manually port TWRP to our phone :victory:
The main problem was a standard port of TWRP would always exceed the recovery partition size no matter how I tried. The kernel of our phone is rather large at 4.2mb and this combined with the TWRP files would always come out too large. :crying:
I was about to give up on ever having TWRP again when I spotted this recompiled version of TWRP on the lenovo ru forum. Here So thanks and credit to the guy who recompiled TWRP to give me those few extra mb's to allow me to squeeze TWRP on to our phone. :highfive: I still had to edit a few images but it now works. :victory: :victory: :victory:
IMPORTANT:
Before you flash this double check the file size against your stock recovery.img or recovery partition size. Highlight recovery/right click/properties/details and check the actual size's
If the twrp recovery is larger than the "stock" recovery.img or recovery partition it will kill your sim slots They will not be displayed or detected!! If it's smaller then your good to go
There is also included in the download MY factory recovery CWM recovery build.prop file and two boot.img's one factory one patched for root
You are responsible for flashing so you do so at your own risk and I will not be responsible for any damage or bricks.

Agold .apk makes lots of system mods so until this is fully investigated proceed with caution!!
The ROM is smooth and stable with everything working on my device as it should. :good:
Power consumption is very good too under normal use :good:
Below is a file called projectConfig.mk which I believe is run at startup but I have not had chance to fully investigate this. Notice all the cheats that can be activated although they seem not be activated in this rom I think "Agold_Empty" THIS IS A LONG LIST so I have had to upload as an attachment PS: The Rom has superuser but will require the patched boot and a patched recovery of your choice to stay rooted which are included in the download.
com.mobileuncle.toolbox should be removed and replaced with the uptodate version on playstore which now supports our phone more fully

Hi! I am glad to see this thread!
Just so you know, I found 4 ROMs for that phones on a Rusian forum, and as far as I can see there seems to be two version of that phone...
3 of the ROMs where OEM original ROMs but different releases. The guy who posted those said that only 2 of the three are functionnal on his phone. I tried all ROMs, and in my case, the only one that works is the one that didn't work for him.
My phone is identified as a MTK Model No.: ES-4 (on the back behind the battery). That that mean that it is not a real U9501?

Yes I think there could be many many differnt types.
Can you pull the build.prop file from /system of the original stock rom and paste the text as CODE Then HIDE?
This will give us a better idea as to the true model identification :fingers-crossed:
I am going to work now so will take a little time to reply.
This is my build.prop to compare.

Hi!
Here is my build.prop
But just so you know, this is not the original one. I flashed my phone already with a few ROMs that I got from that Rusian site. So this ROM is one of the ROM that are supposed to be the stock ROM, but I can tell that the content of the build.prop isn't the same as the original ROM since I don't see the same details in the "About" menu.
I should have made a backup of the original ROM, unfortunately, I didn't. Too late now.
If you want the ROMs let me know, I can send all of them to you.
They are the "stock" version from May, July and September. I also have another ROM that is supposed to be a port of the N9500 which seems to be pretty much the same thing but with different background color in the menus and missing background pictures. So the following build.prop is from that July ROM.
My front camera isn't working, but it never did even with the stock ROM.

And many thanks in advance for working on this! I have been looking for a ROM for a long time!

Hi!
Here is my build.prop
But just so you know, this is not the original one. I flashed my phone already with a few ROMs that I got from that Rusian site. So this ROM is one of the ROM that are supposed to be the stock ROM, but I can tell that the content of the build.prop isn't the same as the original ROM since I don't see the same details in the "About" menu.
I should have made a backup of the original ROM, unfortunately, I didn't. Too late now.

Hi bro,
Well from the build.prop I would say our phones are the same It's a real shame and brave you didn't get a backup first before you flashed a new rom. ( Not recommended to others :laugh: )
Did you flash the boot.img too or just system ? If you have the stock boot.img there is a build.prop in there too which will show the true id of your phone. :fingers-crossed:
Get @michfood awesome boot & recovery repack utility for windows V2. Here Unpack to desktop. Then copy your boot.img to the folder then drag and drop it on to the MTK unpack.bat It will make a "boot" folder and in there you can find the contents of your boot.img look in rmdisk folder for your build.prop
As you can see from my build.prop my phones build date is October so slightly newer than the one's you have but please feel free to upload them some place to share. Recomend https://mega.co.nz it's FREE :good: plus you get 50gb storage and you dont get loads of popups and false download links also no need for spliting larger files as some of these JB backups can hit 1gb without trying
I will be uploading and posting my stuff tomorrow and some tut's etc etc for the newcomers. So please stay tuned
Thanks for the Thanks btw. Just hit the thanks button if I helped
Regards bigrammy.
I am uploading the ROMs that I have... Do you want the link(s) as PM? It will take about 24h... My upload is slow.
I am not sure if I still have my original boot image. I might have it, but when I tried the MTK_Unpack, it generated a folder with a bunch of files and folder, but there is no build.prop.
I don't have a Linux OS on hand... Do you want my boot.img that might still be the original one?

Hi, Sure you can post the ROM links here if you like :good:
Just try include as much info as you can about each of them maybe you could just pull the build.prop for each so people can check it to see if it matches up with there phones.
Also put a disclaimer saying people flash them at there own risk.
As for boot.img well sorry bro my mistake build.prop is in the factory recovery.img which you probably flashed over. I have been porting recoverys to these phones so I was getting confused as I have unpacked and repacked so many latley Same method applies If you still have the recovery.img. Most I have looked at have a build.prop of some descriptiton some are short version and some are full lengthen.
I use windows too so nothing I do will be in linux.
:cool
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
There are risks when flashing devices. If any one of those ROMs isn’t working, just try flashing another one… I am not responsible if you take the risk and break your phone. But note that I flashed them all and my phone is still working
You will find 4 ROMs there https://mega.co.nz/#F!opQn2ARB!YRwITQGXB-EmlVX4KBDqfA
I found all these ROMs as is on the web.
The next 3 comes from a Russian Forums and they are identified as stock ROMs (different releases May, July and September).
The guy that posted those said only the July didn’t work for him. In my case, only the July works. Flash with SP Flash Tool.
06v20_v89_gq3009hd_130529
06v20_v89_gq3009hd_130702
06v20_v89_gq3009hd_130907
This one was identified as a port from the N9500. I tried it, it worked on my phone but other than menu back ground color, it seems to see the same ROM at the user stand point. I have some minor issues with all the ROMs I tried and they are the same on every ROMs (occasional problem connecting Skype, google play that won’t update after some time). This one is a CWR backup. So you need to restore it from CWR and do a Factory reset.
StarU9501FromN9500Original
THOSE ROMs ARE ALL HAVING CHINESSE BLOATWARE, clean it after flashing using MTKDroidTools V2.51
Final note, I don’t see why anyone would need any of these ROMs. The two that I tried aren’t perfect. But if you really need a ROM, this is better than nothing I guess. Make a backup of your phone first with MTKDroidTools (I should have too). We rather need a better ROM. I hope we’ll get one.
If you need to ROOT your original ROM or any of these ones, I did it using UnLockRoot (but I had to run it a few times and skip the reboot step at some point… No more details, good luck). You can install CWR on the original ROM or any of these ones using MTKDroidTools.
Again, I am not responsible if something goes wrong. You do it at your own risks.
If you have question regarding MTKDroidTools, SP Flash Tool or UnLockRoot, ask Google. I found it all, you should be able too!
bigrammy: You will also find there a boot image that could be either the same as the N9500 port or the original one that I had on my phone… I don’t know anymore but it seems to be the one from the N9500 ported ROM.
Click on thanks if that helps!

Any bloat were? Rooted? Known bugs? Any plans for alternative or custom Rom?

Post updated with as much info as I have :silly: Rom has superuser but will require patched boot and patched recovery of your choice to stay rooted all included.
com.mobileuncle.toolbox should be removed and replaced with the uptodate version on playstore

So we can flash it directly with the patched boot and recovery right?
What is the Phone.info? Who does SP Flash tool needs it?
...I couldn't wait so I tried it. It doesn't work. As for May, and September ROMs, I only get a black screens with some strange faded vertical lines. So I restored my previous backup (July ROM).

Hi,
What doesn't work the rom or the flash via flash tool
phone.info is just for information you need Notepad++ to read it.
Try Flash the rom with the patched boot.img and the system.img only. :fingers-crossed:
After the flash boot to recovery first volume + power and do a full wipe data cache dalvik cache then boot to system

The flashing worked. The phone display doesn't work after reboot. I can't even go into recovery.
I tried flashing only the SYSTEM and the BOOT as you asked me, and ...it WORKED!!! :good:
I beleive that all the ROMs I had weir 4.2.1. I am finally having a 4.2.2!
THANKS!
My front camera is still not working though, but that might be an hardware problem with my phone.

Install Directions:
Click button below to view install steps...
To flash the 21a ZIPs you need TWRP installed.
A. Stock ROOTED.
Click the button below to view steps
1. Download the following two files and place on G5 internal or external SD card.
Have encrypted data and no external sdcard? ADB Sideload in TWRP.
LG-RS98821a-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip
Latest SuperSU [BETA] Thanks to Chainfire!
2. (re)Boot into TWRP
3. Install the COMPLETE ZIP and SuperSU ZIP:
LG-RS98821a-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip (Install > select zip > swipe to confirm/flash)
SuperSU zip (Install > select zip > swipe to confirm/flash)
OPTIONAL:
You can use Magisk instead of SuperSU.
To be extra safe in making sure TWRP sticks (in case zips don't repack the boot.img or user error) delete the "recovery-from-boot.p" file in the root of /system and TWRP will 100% stick... boot repack or not). You can use the TWRP Mounts button mount system as RW. And use the Advanced button in TWRP to use the file manager to delete the "recovery-from-boot.p" in /system.
After zips finish flashing you can reboot! If TWRP asks if you want to install SU, hit no. If TWRP says No OS installed, ignore it.
B. Stock UNROOTED + Keeping TWRP.
Click the button below to view steps
You need the COMPLETE zip + either the no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip OR boot repack zip.
Data unncrypted users: Use no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip. Those keeping data encryption: boot repack zip.
If you don't want TWRP/root and don't want to use a KDZ.. flash the COMPLETE zip by itself.
1. Download files and place on G5 internal or external SD card.
Have encrypted data and no external sdcard? Use ADB Sideload in TWRP.
LG-RS98821a-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip
no-verity-opt-encrypt-4.1.zip.Thanks to @jcadduono!
android-boot-repack.zip. Thanks to @jcadduono!
2. (re)Boot into TWRP
3. Install the COMPLETE ZIP + noverity/bootrepack ZIP:
LG-RS98821a-Flashable.COMPLETE-ARB01.zip (Install > select zip > swipe to confirm/flash)
no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip OR android-boot-repack.zip (Install > select zip > swipe to confirm/flash)
After zips finish flashing you can reboot! If TWRP asks if you want to install SU, hit no. If TWRP says No OS installed, ignore it.
FAQ:
Click button below to view FAQ
Q: Why isn't this ROM pre-rooted? Are there any mods?
A: I leave all modifications up to the user, therefore it is up to the user to decide which root method/zip to use or which mods to flash etc. Simply flash the COMPLETE zip then flash the SuperSU zip right after and you'll have a stock-rooted ROM using SuperSU. Want a debloated stock rom? Users/devs should put together a flashable zip that simply deletes apks and other files from the stock roms.. no need to create a whole new 2GB+ rom zip just because you want a few apks removed. The same is true with many mods... flashable mod zips could be used to make changes to this stock base rom.. a whole new rom isn't needed just because a few APKs were modified.
Q: Why did I lose TWRP after flashing this ROM?
A: Android attempts to remove any installed custom recovery(TWRP) each time you boot into Android. To avoid this you can either modify the boot.img or remove the "recovery-from-boot.p" file which is found in the root of your /system partition. Android is able to build the new stock recovery.img when you boot into Android by using the "recovery-from-boot.p" file inside system. But when the boot.img is modified (using SuperSU for example) Android will no longer try to rebuild a stock recovery.img based off the boot.img. Or you can simply remove the "recovery-from-boot.p" file and Android no longer knows how to rebuild stock recovery.
Q: Why does the boot.img need to be repacked?
A: boot.img is repacked for systemless root. You also need to repack the boot.img to stop TWRP from getting replaced with stock recovery the first time you boot into android after installing a new system/boot. A patch file in the system.img uses the boot.img when it's 100% stock and builds/flashes a stock recovery image... and this would replace TWRP. So to keep TWRP and keep a stock system.img you just repack the boot.img with either the SuperSU/Magisk, verity/encryption zip or the boot repacker zip. If you don't care about keeping TWRP none of this matters.
Q: How do I know if /data and /sdcard are encrypted?
A: If you never used TWRP and wiped/formatted data then you have encrypted data. Have TWRP and aren't sure? Boot into TWRP and try to browse /data or /sdcard... if both are empty then you are encrypted. Can you see stuff in /data and /sdcard? Then your data is not safe and not encrypted(but at least you can see files in TWRP, right?...).
NOTES:
This is for the carrier-free USA RS988 that can be officially bootloader unlocked through the LG Developer program. The only way to get 21a installed is to take the official OTA update from 11d.. or flash this ROM. There is no 21a KDZ at this time.

@autoprime testing now. Works great from either 11c or 11d as long as you make sure you keep twrp.
Good to have these as a backup, since there still isn't a 21a KDZ.
I guess the prerequisites are to 1) have the bootloader unlocked and 2) install TWRP, so that you can flash the 21a ZIP files.
I ended up relocking the 21a bootloader so some other apps would work, such as Android Pay.

Will this help in making custom roms? Just curious.
Sent from my SM-N920F using Tapatalk
Are you still planning on doing the 11D Files by any chance?
I sent the files to autoprime he said he will create the 11d zip and upload when he has the time.
Flashed the files in twrp formatted data, wipe caches etc,
bootloops even wiped in stock recovery but didnt work,
couldnt flash 11c again so had to us BP 10h
now no LTE hope KDZ comes soon
You wrote you flashed the "files" plural. You should of only flashed the complete zip after you wiped. Also did you go from BP 10h straight to the 21a? I am not sure if anyone has tried that yet and not sure if that could be the cause of the problem. Most people flashed from BP 10h then flashed the 11c complete zip and if they had any boot looping problems the then were able to flash the 11c kdz in LGUP to fix the boot loop.

i was on 11c to start and i flashed the complete zip first then after constant bootloop i flashed 10h , 11c complete and then 11c kdz took 11d update then flashed 21a works fine now , thanks guys
files was a typo
meant to be just file ...lol

Once you got to 11d, could of just did the OTA to 21a. That's what I did.

not possible to tell without being able to look at the files beforehand or someone checking after the update.
I have rs98821b installed and can confirm that the anti rollback number is still 1.

Hi! If I have root and TWRP then how do I install the update?
How I did it. I just factory reset and wiped everything in twrp then flashed the complete rs98821a zip that autoprime put together for us and then was able to install the OTA update. You will have to reinstall Twrp and root but you do not have to mess with the bootloader.

can someone help me, please?

without some serious hax, you've messed things up pretty good...
first, you will need to buy an RS988 battery module (the bottom piece of the phone that pops off).. these are on ebay and other places.
this will make the "supported module" message go away and download mode etc should work again.
you flashed a rom with a bootloader/modem containing anti-rollback version 01.. yet all H850 and other international devices use anti-rollback version 00. This means your phone will now only accept bootloader/modems that are ARB v01 or higher.. and that you cannot use bootloaders using ARB v00. This means you will no longer be able to flash any H850 KDZ files through download mode since all the stock international KDZs are ARB v00. And if you try to flash an ARB v00 bootloader/modem/rom through TWRP to get around the KDZ block.. it will brick your phone and it will not boot up again.
Hopefully RS988 rom/bootloader/modem works well enough on your H850 because you are now. The system (rom) and boot (kernel) partitions on your phone do not care about ARB version.. so it's possible you may be able to get some sort of hybrid setup going.. where you use a RS988 bootloader/modem but a H850 system/boot partition. That may or may not work and the only way to know for sure is to experiment.
Just be sure to never flash an ARB v00 bootloader (or a rom that contains the bootloader.. like all of my COMPLETE zips for various devices) or the phone will not boot up again and it will be stuck in qualcomm 9008 mode.. which only can be fixed by LG or some various people in china who offer mail in service.

First of all, thank you very much form your answer. And yes, what a big mess!! Too many risky (for clueless guys like me) find ROMs for different versions of same phone.
Then, following steps can be:
1. buy an RS988 battery module
2.
- act like my phone were an RS988 flashing ROMs for this model?
- or flash only RS988 bootloader and modem and then H850 ROMs without that?
thanks again
