My HTC is only 720p too and looks smoother, this is because antutu lowers the test method no shading and it only tests garden. I also think there's something a miss like a cheat
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
I think it's a cheat, in fact only final score is 10k higher, when you compare, the score is lowered...

Xposed is still not working..even with the latest OTA update it keeps rebooting the phone after a while :(

btw: Based on their facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/bluboomobilephone) It seems, that the Xtouch is now a forgotten model...

Now I really doubt about the last sentence...

Just had a quick read on the author site and its not compatible with 5.1

"rovo89

about 1 month ago

It seems that some vendors have ported a change that was originally made in 5.1 back to 4.4. Xposed currently doesn't work with such ROMs. However, I have completely restructured the source code and installation procedures for ART on Lollipop. Even though I kept Dalvik in mind, it will still require much more work and testing. Therefore, I'm not able to release pre-Lollipop files at the moment and due to the focus on Lollipop/Marshmallow, I don't think this will change for the next weeks or maybe even months."

...on my other phone with CM12.1 (5.1.1) Xposed is working flawlessly
[Device Reviews and Information] trojanere:
Well that was apparently one of the author's that stated that so you must have got lucky on your other phone.. Take it up with him.. You could even help him out by discussing it.
[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
i have some mediatek Mt6753 chinese phone (Umi Iron Pro, Umi Rome, Elephone M2) and Xposed works with them..

I think that there is an issue only on this Bluboo rom, probably something regarding kernel or odex system files..
[Device Reviews and Information] trojanere:
Interesting Meg... Must be a vender thing then.. Ask him to look at the ROM then satmaster or send some system logs see ifnhe can workout what's happening from them.

Im also interested in xposed working. Hope, someone could fix this.

Wifi-issue with connected and no transfer, already noticed...

Someone told that the sechond batch hasnt this bug. Is it HW-problem, or Software?

What version of xposed did you tried, thats with restarts?

I just tested xposed-v79-sdk22-arm.zip - before i have a chance to install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk

the phone reboots...

Just opened a issue on github about xposed

ht..ps://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/115

anybody have more information, please feel free to comment the issue.

You need Vxx-SDK22-ARM64 , because is Lollipop 64Bit system.. not the ARM one.

BTW i tested V75, V78 and V79 and always don't complete the boot process without reboot..
[Device Reviews and Information] Renzke:
You got the thanks. ;)

Everything is working fine now. One additional problem was that the IMEI was deleted but it was easy to change this by using the MTK engineer mode. Only my serial number is "0123456789ABCDEF" now. I can live with it.

Can anybody upload the latest and original "build.prop" for me (With the 12.01.2016 update installed)? To flash the "update.zip" via TWRP it was necessary to delete some code in the "updater-script" and to repack + sign the new "updater.zip". Only because I changed and add some code in this file and don't have an backup. Furthermore it was necessary to change the new build-information manually in the "build.prop". If I skip this I don't get OTA updates anymore. This is a lot of work :p

"Unique chinese id" :good: And yep my red led isn't working. #Beta-tester

It seems that they imrpoved the battery-life. My battery have more than 50% after a full day. I never had this before.

For those who are not happy with the brightness of the screen. Set the value for the max.brightness in the "build.prop" from 210 to 255 ;) ...but make a backup of the build.prop and restore / replace the file before you're doing an OTA update via TWRP. It won't work without an untouched "build.prop" because there is a cheksum check of the file.

I had only installed OTA updates but gave the full ROM an attempt. It made no change.

No data over wifi, camera won't focus. If they don't fix this in an update soonish then I'll call this phone out for what it is and move on.
[Device Reviews and Information] s7yler:
WiFi and camera is working for others. I think your device is faulty (hardware) so an update will of course not be able to solve your problems or change anything for you.
[Device Reviews and Information] trojanere:
Probably hardware then in my experience.

Like Styler says its probably hardware then if a full ROM flash hasn't corrected it.

[Device Reviews and Information] Renzke:
Hi Thomas,

it's like the others said. Xposed has no connection to your battery. This post was related to the software update (12.01.2016) from Bluboo

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 PM ----------

Our device is on Android 5.1 --> sdk22

We have a 64 bit system / arm processor --> arm64

Follow the links from "nJoy-Android"

First install the *.zip with TWRP (don't forget to make a backup before) and then install the *.apk in the android system.

I recommend to download also the uninstaller from here (you need the arm64 version):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

In case of problems it should also work to flash the uninstaller zip instead of restore the backup.

Don't use the Xposed.zip from my link. The "xposed-v79-sdk22-arm64.zip " isn't working on our device. Only the link from "nJoy-Android", "v80_test" is working fine.

After root do you have any problem? If you have root you can still update via OTA?

What the simpliest way too root?
[Device Reviews and Information] thb2602:
There is a guy here in the forum megthebest he ported TWRP Recovery for XTouch.

Using the recovery you can install SuperSUxx.zip to aquire root.

I just tried it, worked like a charm. Great work from meg :good:

Bluboo XTOUCH X500 [Modding] - Modding Altri Terminali MTK - Androidiani

If you check earlier posts here you'll see that people did OTA updates already (not directly, but by downloading and installing manually).

I'd advise to wait with further OTA updates until someone posts notes how to do it sucessfully.

Besides that there is no impact having root (at least what I know so far).

I just need it for Greenify, TitaniumBackup and some other tools that require root. Did not use Xposed yet.

Thanks for the reply. Actually I experienced no difference in battery life with 2016-01-12 update.

[Device Reviews and Information] trojanere:
Ive done a little more digging, that was an old post I picked up the frequencies from.

Apparently the phone needs to be AWS aware or compatible. This uses 1700 upload and 2100 download. So the phone can may see the 4G but not register because it can't communicate on 1700 uplink.

I ran Antutu test using versionv 5.6.2 which is often used on Youtube benchmarks.

XTouch scores ~43600 in ranking list which is below Galaxy Note 4 (about 70% of Note 4),

but shows 40828 in overview. So in this case ranking is better than overview.

I don't believe they cheat Antutu 6, because that version wasn't even available when the phone came out.

However, performance is sufficient for my needs and always feels snappy.
