I have a new firmware and this is for Star Mobile UP HD. I have already tested this firmware and I can fully attest that the firmware is working.
The firmware is already rooted. You can also choose if you want to install CWM, TWRP or Stock Recovery.
The firmware version is version 06, you may need to uninstall the root access. To update to the latest version which is version 10. If you do not remove the root access you might brick your phone.
Some pictures below are just an example of my previous post. Replace scatter file with the correct firmware that you downloaded.

"I suggest to use 32bit Windows OS for compatibility of the driver"
"You can also use 64bit version, just disable driver signing or driver signature before installing the driver."
Installing Driver with AutoInstaller
First try the Alternative Driver, which is the AutoInstaller. Just open the install.exe then it will automatically install the driver. To fully check if the driver is correctly installed in your computer.
Follow these steps:
- Turn off your phone (always powered off is a must)
- Press and hold volume up or down, or you can simple press the two button.
- Insert your USB cable without releasing the VOLUME button(s).
- In your computer, it must detect your phone and it will install the MTK Preloader or Mediatek USB VCOM driver.
- Repeat 1 to 4 if it does not detect your phone.
- If MTK Preloader/Mediatek USB VCOM Driver is installed you are good to go in flashing your phone ^_^

Installing Manually using VCOM Driver
When
installing it manually your phone must be turned off, then connect it
to your computer/laptop while pressing VOLUME UP or VOLUME DOWN. This
will detect and look for the driver.
1. This is the first time that you will connect your phone and it will search for the correct driver.
2.
Check include this location ... ... and click on browse. Look for USB
VCOM Driver and Click on 2K_XP_COM folder if you are using Windows XP or
Win7 for Windows 7 and then press OK when you are done picking the
right folder for the driver.
3. If the driver is successfully installed MediaTek DA USB VCOM will appear in the New Hardware Wizard.

3. After you load the file, UNCHECK PRELOADER and DSP only (Never flash preloader and DSP if available in firmware) If you can't proceed flashing without these two files then proceed at your own risk, press Press Download to Flash your Phone.
4.
After you press Download Follow these steps
*** For non-removable battery just press the power button until the phone power up. Some phone's have a reset button. You can press it to reset your phone.
Some workarounds:
- Turn off your phone (always powered off is a must)
- Press and HOLD volume UP or Down or you can simply press it simultaneously
- Insert your USB cable without releasing the VOLUME button(s).
- Keep on repeating until Flashtool detected your phone.

Some workarounds:
If you encounter PMT_Changed error here is what you do:
In Latest version of Flashtool
- PMT_CHANGED error occur when firmware is not compatible with your phone. Sometimes your phone has a different board version. You should check it too, if your firmware is compatible with your phone.
- Try Firmware upgrade
- Try different version of flashtool
- Try to set Format All + Download
- Or try Manual Format first then Download.
If you encounter Privacy Protection Password:
- Open flash_tool.exe
- Load the scatter file
- Goto Format Tab
- Click on Format except bootloader
- Press Play/Start Icon
- Then remove battery
- Insert the battery again
- Insert the USB cable (you should hear a beep on your computer, and it should proceed in formatting.)
- After done formatting proceed in Flashing.
- Goto Download tab (I assume that you loaded the scatter file already)
- Uncheck PRELOADER (this is very important)
- Press Download
- Then remove battery
- Insert Battery again
- Insert the USB cable (you should hear a beep on your computer, and it should proceed in flashing or downloading the firmware in your phone.)
- Power ON the phone after flashing.
- Restore your IMEI.
For Invalid IMEI (Does not work in MT6571 SoC):
- Root your phone via vRoot/iRoot/Kingoroot or your preferred method in rooting you device. Your phone must be rooted first.
- Download MTKDroidsTool version 2.4.8 and version 2.5.3
- Enable your USB debugging in Developer Option (you also need this in rooting your phone via PC)
- Okay in your PC -- Open MTKDroidstool version 2.4.8 (Mtkdroidstool.exe) first. Make sure that you connected your phone already.
- Still in Mtkdroidstool -- Click ROOT
- In your phone -- A pop up dialogue will appear, just grant or allow it.
- In your PC -- If root shell is granted/allowed, Click in IMEI/NVRAM tab. If it is grayed out this is the time when you open the MTKDroidsTool version 2.5.3.
- Enter your original IMEI
- Click Replace
- Reboot your phone
1. Make sure you have MTKDROIDSTOOL version 2.4.8 or version 2.5.3 (you can search it in google)
I hope this tutorial help you. Please drop a comment if something is not clear to you.
