Here is one way:
add
\newcommand{\tocchap}[1]{\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\protect\numberline{}#1}}
in the preamble, and mark
\tocchap{Whatever title}
after the starred chapter or biblio, lof or lot reference section
If you want the toc entry look like an entry section, define a similar \tocsect
command.
