Hi guys, went dead silent for some time and here i am now with my phone fixed.
Yes indeed I lost all my data, important actually and for now am stuck thinking how to get my data back. There seemed to be a problem with the extension of the partition I did on GParted and the phone kept referring to it as unrecognized. I hence formatted my emmc and still it read as unrecognized. I then tried flashing the vanilla, which kept exiting with an error about 'raw data mismatch'. After several tries and fails, I changed to windows xp, tried using the NSU, which could detect the phone but could not analyze the phone data to determine if update is required.
I tried again on Linux to format the emmc and,...it went through but my mass memory was read only. I tried to format it but it was still read only (couldnt save, copy, delete etc anything from the drive)

I took this to the computer, formatted the mass memory and used NSU again, which now detected my device and updated the firmware to PR1.3 which am using for like 7 hours so far and this is great combined with the cssu update.

Michaa & Elros, if I could request, I'd like to run Kubuntu and Nitdroid and unfortunately can't use my mem card slot as it is not working, is it possible to partition to three partitions where I have enough workspace to run the three os's. Am not worried about storage as I am able to use OTG to an external hard disk.

Thank you guys, am glad am back up and going. GBU.
