Thanks for the files I'll extract the appropriate files. I checked your tree and i saw that in BoardConfig.mk you have some double declerations of CMDLINE and Base address.

Also these mkbootimg args i think aren't correct (?).

Kernel sources, i agree that they don't compile and i use a prebuilt kernel for now.

Right now i'm making a build with my local files, despite the fact that a i have a slow pc.

Also i think it;s a good idea to get a recovery to boot from source (maybe i'll provide a link later)

That's all for now. See ya :D

[Blu Pure XL] bemolx:
When I get home, I'll update my device tree and you'll be able to see changes I made. I think I am on good way as I'm having less errors. Maybe I'll upload vendor blobs well.

In less than an hour it will be available at https://github.com/bemolxd

We'll get this soon guys ;)

I think we can chat on Hangouts to help each other.

Update: I've reuploaded device tree and made you [MENTION=1735457]acheron1502[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6052895]root-expert[/MENTION] as my collaborators. The files have been edited last Sunday. I hope we can get this done together.

Device tree at GitHub

Cheers

Okay nice! Where we can chat on hangouts. Send me a pm i think we are not in the same timezone :P

I've made totally new device tree for Allview X2 Xtreme from the scratch. I'll test it tonight, hope I can get at least working recovery or boot image compiled from my source.

New device tree
[Blu Pure XL] acheron1502:
Update for all ... we are getting closer. We have a working CM Recovery now.

Next is to get a full CM 12.1 ROM built and tested. We are squashing build errors left and right.

6am and just now going to bed.

Awesome news gentleman! Im ordering another blu pure xl today! Ill be happy to test sometime next week when i receive phone.
[Blu Pure XL] Strizay:
Is this the same phone as the Blu Dash X Plus?

LMFAO!!!! Haha? good response !!
[Blu Pure XL] Strizay:
not really, that is the lamest, oldest and gayest response one could have given. the only way it could have been gayer is if he would have asked to blow me. Anyway, I knew the phones were different, I was just hoping someone would have been able to point me in the direction of the phone I was asking about. Seems this site has skipped this phone for whatever reason.
[Blu Pure XL] bemolx:
#1 just take it easy man, u can use web search to find out if its the same or nah

#2 why u askin when u know its different?

Its been said somewhere in general section its only blu pure xl = allview x2 xtreme = gionee elife e8 = condor allure a100

Like I mentioned above, I was more or less baiting to see if someone could point me out to some info on the BLU Dash X Plus XP D950U. I know it was cheating and going way off topic, but I don't know of any other way to approach the question. I figured I'd drop it into a random Blu related phone topic and a good Samaritan would point me in the right direction.

Any updates on the rom?
[Blu Pure XL] root-expert:
Still wokring... we don't have much free time.. I hope tomorrow we will be able to get something... even to boot it. We had missing libs but we prefered to make a new clean build. I have to sort out vendor libs will keep you posted. :D :D

Eagerly waiting

Hi Folks,

I just wanted to say I'm sure I'm not the only lurker who is eagerly waiting a custom image, but hasn't spoken up about it yet. Just about every time I try to make a call, I am informed that my limit has been exceeded and I have to reboot before I can make it. I'm hoping this goes away on a custom ROM. I assume it's something to do with using a Google Voice number, since I haven't seen other complaints about this situation.

I'd like to toss another $20 on the pledge pile for this AOSP/CyanogenMod build.
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
its definitely a google voice/this rom issue, happens to me too...

My work around was to dial into my GV # and use it to dial out from.

Pulling my pledge

As the title states. This thread was started almost 2 months ago, I was thinking this was going to be positive. No success. I understand people have lifes as do I. Im selling/stroing the pure xl and awaiting my N6P to arrive which has already roms and a active fourm. If anyone wants to buy this xl msg me otherwise going in back of my closest

Thank you for all your hard work guys!
[Blu Pure XL] mhajii210:
Pledge

Well thank you for your initial pledge! If half of the people who even viewed this thread would be willing to pledge even $1, the bounty would be over $4000 by now. That way this device would be sure to get more attention. Hope you enjoy your Nexus 6P! Thanks again.
[Blu Pure XL] droidboy29:
Yes I am surprised to see that the development for this phone is not exploding. I had the blu vivo iv and blu vivo air before this and they both had way more development than this phone. I'm guessing it's the price of the phone and also that blu phones are still not a big priority of developers. Also think it had to do with the vivo iv and vivo air being the thinnest phones ever released and the price was so cheap that alot of people bought them. I've only had the phone for a couple weeks and I'm still right on the edge if I'm going to sell it on eBay or not. I think I'm going to sell this and purchase the vivo 5 when it comes out.
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
I know I wish it was better; this is the 1st phone Ive owned with no community... had a nexus 1, galaxy s3, htc one (m7) and and Amaze 4g in there somewhere... and all had active dev community...

Ive attempted to load a virtual machine up with ubuntu for a build environment, but the last source ive compiled was PASCAL in highschool... so I dont know how quick Ill be able to pick it up... I been trying to read up, I figure Ill try to get an AOSP complied for the m7 (because I can recover easier if I break it) and learn how to get things going... all while waiting for BLU to release the source...
[Blu Pure XL] acheron1502:
Sorry for the lack of updates...

I started a new job last week, so I haven't had the time to work on this.

Hoping to have more time this weekend for some test builds.

[MENTION=2360894]tbirdguy[/MENTION] - I came from the M7 as well (sprint). This is the first device I've had to start from scratch and figure everything out. Now we have a small group (myself, bemolx, root-expert) trying to get CM 12.1 working.

You are welcome to join us if you think you can help. Send us a PM with your Hangouts email.
[Blu Pure XL] root-expert:
I'm willing to help as much as possible as I have some experience with porting CM. However, i don't have a powerful computer to build roms so acheron builds roms and I help with the errors. ;)

Hope this device will have cm soon :D
[Blu Pure XL] Lykeul:
I hope too... Thank you very munch to all people work for that

:D

PS: if you need a beta tester I'am here
[Blu Pure XL] cfinnestad:
Once you get cm12.1 working will cm13.x be next. I heard cm13 does better power management and this phone could really use that.
[Blu Pure XL] bemolx:
Yes. When we get working cm12 we'll try to make other ROMs too even on 6.0.1.

Switched to Nexus 6P

Hi guys. I just wanted to let you guys know I am pulling my $50 pledge. I no longer have my Blu Pure XL phone. I switched to the Nexus 6P as of yesterday. Even though I spent $200 more, there is simply way more of a development community on a Nexus device. After playing with both phones, I have to confirm the hardware on the Blu Pure XL is top notch, but sadly the software doesn't match the hardware. I had to really think about this one since the Pure XL has been the best phone I've ever owned. I will checkup on you guys from time to time. Best of luck to you all in getting a CyanogenMod or an AOSP ROM on this phone!!
[Blu Pure XL] Jrodsaxo1190:
I pledge $100. I'm not a noob to XDA, just never contributed. I'm shocked that there isn't more of a community with this device considering its PHENOMENAL hardware matched with a killer price. I don't have the skills to make a ROM, but I've cash $$$
[Blu Pure XL] pianoplayer88key:
Hmm .... I was really hopeful that the Pure XL would have a custom ROM by now, like Cyanogenmod. :( I haven't pledged, so I don't have anything to pull out, but the fact that the LG G4 is now available for $350 from my carrier is looking very tempting. (It'll be a month or 2 before I think I can actually buy it though, and I'll still keep a half an eye on the Pure XL development scene.)

Anyway, I'm hoping it's considerably better than my 3-year-old Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G. It's gotten to be really sluggish due to its pittance of RAM, and it frequently thermal-shuts-down when I'm driving and using it for GPS navigation. I've seen it, using CPU-Z, at over 100°C on several occasions, and even under moderate use it's frequently over 80-85°C.

Something I'd really like to see is a community-designed phone, as in the hardware, and modular so I could swap out the CPU, GPU, RAM, storage, etc like I can on my desktop PC and on my particular laptop. :) I'd love to see the equivalent performance of an i7-5960X overclocked to 4.8 GHz, 128GB ECC DDR4 RAM, 4TB PCI-Express SSD, and four-way SLI GTX Titan X's in a phone. :p (And no, getting that level of performance in say 2025 doesn't count - it'd need to be equivalent to what's then comparable in market segment / product stack on desktop PCs.) I guess such a beast would cost comparable to what those PC parts are, though. :( Maybe something more reasonable, like comparable to the cost of a current/upcoming flagship phone, would be the equivalent of an i7-6700K, 16GB DDR4, 256GB Samsung 950 Pro M.2 SSD, and a GTX 970 (not 970M). :) The thermals and power consumption would still be an issue though. :/ (I doubt we'll see an FX-9590 and R9 295X2 in a phone anytime soon.) And if a manufacturer couldn't put those Intel & nVidia parts (or AMD) into a phone just yet, just make sure that if it's released in 2016, it would get a cinebench score of at least 1,000 and a firestrike score of at least 10,000. :) (And if it's released later it'd need to score higher.)
[Blu Pure XL] biggerbigboy:
I bought the Allview last year and love the specs, but the software is not that nice, i would like to see MIUI 7 on it, that would be very nice. if not i think i buy an Xiaomi Mi5
[Blu Pure XL] Unrealjay91:
Seen not much progress is been made on this development. I no longer using the pure.xl but check up on this interesting community.

I as well have moved on from Blu XL, but im still in with this bounty! Hope to see it succeed! Fingers crossed;)
[Blu Pure XL] Unrealjay91:
I honestly feel that the rom development has spotted for this as I havent seen any updates. Lol its good to dream! Im suprised if I knew how to code a rom I would have totally done it for such a large bounty
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
its just a port not a recode, ive been making slight progresses compiling cm for my m7, (im learning on it, because i can recover it easier than the BLU,) if we had sourcecode from BLU or Allwinner, or Gionee... or anyone else (who is the manufacturer? has anyone tried to reach out to them about source?)
[Blu Pure XL] Unrealjay91:
http://androidmtk.com/download-gionee-stock-rom-models
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
compiled rom isnt source...
[Blu Pure XL] Unrealjay91:
I was thinking couldnt you change some of the code? The gionee e8 rom looks better then this stock rom
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
thats a compiled rom; we need the source code to that rom so we can use it to figure out why our compiling isnt working on CM and others...

"Change some of the code" literally means "change some of the SOURCE code" and we dont have source code (yet, there are rumors of gionee releasing code at end of march, but we will have to wait and see)
[Blu Pure XL] root-expert:
Hello guys. The rom is being developed but i'll need some testers to test the rom. It is still in Pre-Alpha stage maybe it will not boot but will you help me to boot it. Acheron is a little bit busy so i use his server to build the rom.

If anyone is intrested send me a message. :D
[Blu Pure XL] Unrealjay91:
I could test it for you, should be interesting
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
i can test it no problem, and would look forward to it... i can possibly set up a sever for you to cook on too, pm me to let me know....

My phone has notified me there's a wireless update available:

Version number: BLU_P0010UU_V16_GENERIC_5.1_16-03-2016 19:30

Version size: 275.23 MB

Release date: 2016-03-22

1. Fixes green screen when recording videos with Snapchat.

2. Updated security patches to February 1, 2016.

3. Fixes Play Store error -504.

4. Improved music control from lock screen

5. Optimizes bluetooth video/audio sync.

6. Optimized MMS compression for higher quality picture messages

7. Battery life optimizations.

8. Fixes NFC 'Driving' profile ringtone issue.

Once you select Update now, your device will power off and enter into the Recovery Mode. The update process may take a few minutes, please make sure your battery is charged to at least 30%.

I'm not sure how to capture this file rather than directly update with it, but I'd be happy to grab it and post it somewhere if having the file would help in some way. I haven't rooted or put a custom recovery on yet, so my phone is pretty much stock at the moment.
[Blu Pure XL] Jrodsaxo1190:
BTW... This update did MIRACLES for this phone. The Android experience was seriously lacking, but since the update battery performance has been noticeably improved and some of the quirks ironed out. I was surprised BLU pushed an update, but I'm glad they did!
[Blu Pure XL] darth415:
I think it updates it to what I got from Gionee. This pretty much sums up what I thought. As far as I can tell, all BLU is doing is slightly changing Gionee ROMs and re-releasing them. They're the exact same.
[Blu Pure XL] Jrodsaxo1190:
Well Gionee had it right. BLU has been absolutely the worse with updates in the past, so this is appreciated. Lol
[Blu Pure XL] ariot:
Has anyone with a rooted Blu Pure XL been able to apply this latest update?
[Blu Pure XL] humanophile:
I haven't done the update yet. Can anyone confirm whether it's still possible to get root and/or put on a custom recovery after the update? I'd hate to cut off my access.
[Blu Pure XL] Alexis96312:
Can't update

I was trying to update from the setting but I can't saying (your device is damage and disabled update)

I don't want to unroot and reroot the device. Is there anyway I can update the device from downloading from the internet or a link
[Blu Pure XL] Short Circuit:
You'll have to unroot and install stock recovery in order to install OTA updates without any hitches.

If it still says that your system is damaged after unrooting, there's probably no other choice but to flash stock system image, then install the update
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
I had to flash complete clean stock rom...
[Blu Pure XL] humanophile:
tbirdguy, did you try rooting and putting a custom recovery on after the update?
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
Yea I got twrp 3.0.1 and root with latest Super SU, Ive basically done this for both the OTA updates that have been sent out... wishing for MM update on any of the clones so we can have sweet sweet MM goodness
[Blu Pure XL] humanophile:
How is development proceeding? Is there anything that I can do to help, such as a remote build environment or something? I can't provide free time, nor actual motivation other than the cash incentive. : )

I went for the update. Unfortunately, my Google Voice glitch still is there (I usually can't dial out using my GV number, which is the primary number. It says "Call not sent. Limit exceeded." After the update, sometimes I get a dialog saying Google Voice couldn't connect, and asking if I would like to dial out with the phone's number instead.
[Blu Pure XL] acheron1502:
Development is proceeding ...

[MENTION=6052895]root-expert[/MENTION] and I are currently trying to squash a bug in our boot sequence ... "netd" service is not wanting to play nice, so the boot process loops on the Sid animation.

We are still plugging away :)
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
I get that same error on GV... dont know wtf either, i use hangouts dialer to call out on my gv number
[Blu Pure XL] ariot:
TbirdGuy - Could you please confirm if you can install Evernote after installing the updates? Thanks.
[Blu Pure XL] tbirdguy:
yes, i was able to install and open Evernote (at least to the "Start using evernote" stage, I did not go past that.)
[Blu Pure XL] root-expert:
Just a small update. Netd is starting the boot proccess is going fine but when it tries to initilize the UI the system goes out of memory so it crashes. I think there is a memory leak somewhere. We will investigate it with [MENTION=1735457]acheron1502[/MENTION] today.

-Getting closer :D

So a funny thing happened today while testing...

After flashing a boot.img and changing build.prop around... My phone was not being recognized by ADB, Fastboot, nor mountable to PC, nor charging >_< It was also making this weird buzzing sound when hooked up to the charger :eek:

Flashed old boot.img ... nothing

Restored TWRP backup ... nothing

After a few freak-out moments, I remembered about SP Flash Tool. Rebooted into Windows and was able to use SP Flash Tool to:

- pull my whole Internal Storage partition out to an IMG file

- restore stock partitions from my initial dump

Rebooted and everything was back to normal... charging, PC mount, ADB and Fastboot all working again.

Enough fun for one day. Bedtime now.

ROM Progress for the day

- got SIM Card option in Settings to show, but still no data

- no IMEI info, but now it recognizes that it has 2 SIM slots
[Blu Pure XL] acheron1502:

Bad (for me): I've accidentially totally bricked my Allview.. (not because of cm13). I must try flashing stock via SPFT otherwise R.I.P Allview..

I'll upload CM13 package on my BasketBuild later today. If someone wanna try my device/vendor tree you can find it here.

EDIT: Package is up on the server! To flash it you need [MENTION=1735457]acheron1502[/MENTION] 's TWRP! Gonna revive my Allview now..

[Blu Pure XL] Short Circuit:
Have you tested (at least the recovery) to see if it boots? CM13.0 doesn't seem to want to boot for me with the current kernel on the Pure XL, while CM12.1 boots with the exact same files/kernel/configuration
[Blu Pure XL] root-expert:
UPDATE!

We fixed:

-RIL(calls, sms etc.)

-Wifi and bluetooth are showing up in settings

-Bluetooth

Now I'm working on audio (now at least it doesn't prevent the phone from booting (y) ). I haven't tested Camera and gps yet.

I think without audio rom is nothing so I won't release the rom for now (tell me if you want to do so).
