Where can I download the last stock ROM (Android 6.0) file for Blue Life One X? I mean, not using the upgrade button in the stock ROM, but just download the file using a web browser.
[Device Reviews and Information] daveburnt:
That would be greaaat.
[Device Reviews and Information] tinpanalley:
My BLU is on the stock ROM but is rooted just to disable some bloatware. If I do a factory reset will it just go back to a full unrooted phone as it was when I bought it? I want to unroot the phone completely to prepare it for selling.

Thank you!
[Device Reviews and Information] Harishwarrior:
Yeah...

And if it doesn't worked.. flash the stock ROM using sp flash tool...
[Device Reviews and Information] tinpanalley:
Ok, so custom recovery, VCOM drivers, none of that matters in unrooting? Just flash back that stock ROM and everything on the phone gets wiped back to its original state including the recovery?
[Device Reviews and Information] Harishwarrior:
Yup flash the stock you will get the device as new as you brought it...
[Device Reviews and Information] tinpanalley:
It worked out fine. Back to stock. Although, I had forgotten about the whole thing about how to disable blocking of non Microsoft signed drivers on Win10. That took me a while. I just have to figure out now how to get rid of those drivers because I don't need them there and I like to keep a clean system.

But thank you [MENTION=7676621]Harishwarrior[/MENTION]. :)

Flash Wiko Fever4g Lolipop Rom with US or EU basebands

I been playing around flashing Wiko and Modem Fixes. Finally was able to get US or EU bands with Lolipop Fever rom.

For US bands in Fever.

1.) Boot TWRP, Wipe, Advanced Wipe, All but External SDcard. Power Off.

2.) Do steps 1-4 " - HERE - " until Format All + Download, Instead just select system and use Download.

3.) When finished unplugged and boot into TWRP. Flash root if you want and "Modem-Fix-BLU-Life-One-X.zip"

4.) Wipe Cache and reboot.

For EU bands in Fever.

1.) On Stock Blu Lolipop backup IMEI using Mobile Uncle app onto SD Card. Power Off.

2.) SPFlashTools>Format> Do an "Auto Format" flashing all except bootloader.

3.) SPFlashTools> "Format and Download" Wiko LP v11 Firmware replace Preloader and Secro with BLU_L0070UU_V12_REPAIR Also replace recovery with TWRP.

4.) When finished unplugged boot into TWRP, then Root, Reboot and restore IMEI using Mobile Uncle.

PS. For Wiko LP v11 Firmware you have to extract it, Then run the exe and install. After open the "Rom" folder then copy in the Blu files and Custom recovery.

Need full reset to factory and delete all personal data

So I'm giving away my old Blu Life One X 2016. It's rooted running stock and TWRP. I want to reset to factory settings and delete all personal info. I tried using the Factory Data Reset function but it didn't completely reset the phone nor did it delete photos.

When I bought it I replaced some function sounds of my own (like unlock sounds and keyboard typing) and installed my own boot image; and all these are still present even though I did a factory reset like I mentioned.

Any help how to delete all my personal data and restore all factory settings?

Thanks

Thanks, will try it!

Btw, has anyone found out how to change the on-screen buttons order and functionality? Bugs me a lot that back button is on the left and no having menu button.
[Device Reviews and Information] SCrid2000:

[Device Reviews and Information] mswguitar:
Go to Settings, Display, Navigation bar setting. This will at least allow you to reverse the order of the buttons.

Can someone that has successfully unrooted and updated their device please post the stock recovery image they flashed when unrooting. I know there is already one on this thread but wasn't there issues when trying to install the update?
[Device Reviews and Information] SCrid2000:
It's not the recovery image itself that's the problem, it's that the /system has been modified and the update gets rejected because the hashes don't match (and unfortunately removing the verification in the update.zip causes the update to not run at all). What we would need is an unmodified system backup in order to take the update.

Edit: so if someone who was able to successfully upgrade is willing to post a clean nandroid backup of the updated system, it would be much appreciated :)
[Device Reviews and Information] mswguitar:
When I installed TWRP, I vaguely recall it asking me if I wanted to let it modify something (maybe /system, I don't remember). If you select No, it would make it easier to install OTA updates in the future, so I answered no. I'm wondering if kwkbnk did the same thing because according to his post, he was able to revert back and install the OTA.

I haven't tried yet as my phone has been functioning great and I don't have the time to mess with it (maybe next week).

So I unbricked my device using SPflash tool and the factory firmware-- from ClanGSM site.

Who else is getting very slow speeds of charging?

Everyone. I read (maybe on slickdeals?) that the slower charging time might actually increase the battery lifespan, so I deal with it. It makes it through a day and charges to full overnight.

[MENTION=4480284]sspunkky[/MENTION] Bad_MOFO_33: "stock-update-rooted" worked well for me. When I updated i

didn't unroot

just rebooted and restored. No issue what so ever. Make sure you got the directory path correct :o . Your mileage may vary.

[MENTION=4132835]SCrid2000[/MENTION] when you restored did you use the data backup partition? I wonder if that could be an issue?

[MENTION=569582]rogersa2k[/MENTION] did you want to add...

Tested

: Second BLU logo boot screen. /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Tested

: BLU shutdown screen. /system/media/shutanimation.zip

Untested

: "data/local" No root needed and will boot the bootanimation.zip or shutanimation.zip but will reset with factory reset.

Just renaming or deleting these will give you a stock black screen with Android logo. This got me the fastest boot time about 45 seconds without quick boot. Even with a static black image, it still took about 52secs to boot "Go Figure?". I loaded up to about 30mb bootanimation.zip files and didn't affect boot time that much. When coping in new bootanimation.zip files make sure you change the permissions to what is needed. Clicking on the default one before you delete and view properties then permissions.

Question One: Has anyone found a way to change the setting app to a dark theme? White theme is not the one.

Question Two: Anyone running battery monitoring software? My mediaserver seems to be using way to much battery for what it does. ".nomedia" files have helped. I have link all my files to same folder so mediaserver should only have to scan one folder.
[Device Reviews and Information] feegus:
I am rooted and running fine but since I'm curious if the update adds any benefit, is this all I would need to do to update? Can someone explain these steps just a bit clearer for a semi-n00b so I don't muck it up?

[Device Reviews and Information] SCrid2000:
Data wipe didn't help, would still bootloop. Moot point now.

Yup, /system/media is standard bootanimation (and shutanimation.zip) location. I replaced both the stock ones with the lollipop nexus one. You can delete the boot sounds too.

Don't have an answer to your questions though.

Stuck in bootloop after chaning bootanimation

Uhh so I changed bootanimatio using es file manager. Original is still in the system/media folder but as a .zip1. I also moved the 2 boot audio files to the audio folder in that same directory. Now I'm stuck. Don't got a backup. Using twrp.

Is there anyway to access this folder to change my stuff back either using twrp or a computer.

Or if there is some other way to fix this mess.

Thx Guys
[Device Reviews and Information] ZamZing:
Try the file manager in TWRP (under advanced). You may have to mount the system partition before it allows you to move or rename files. If that fails, mount the system partition in TWRP then use adb to rename/move the files. Good luck.
[Device Reviews and Information] Teblakuda4o4:

I made a backup of the bootlooped phone, then i flashed the stock-update-backup that [MENTION=5966836]Bad_MOFO_33[/MENTION] blessed us with. then i restored my data and cache. Everything works great.

One thing i realized tho is that after the update, Xposed Framework gives a bootloop so for now dont install that... or use the uninstaller.

All was well, until I sat there wondering what else in the world was available for my new friend, - which was when I found this blurb about the Elephone doppelganger. Completely blinded by the possibilities of ROMS and Mods that could be out there... I foolishly decided to attempt a flash of an Elephone intended ROM named Eragon p8000.

My BLU friend is now stuck in a boot-loop and is not registering on ADB. I can get it to go into a menu for "to go into recovery arrow up, factory mode arrow down", however when I do either action it goes to a back-lit black screen and then off 2 seconds later....returning with this lovely face.

I still haven't made any progress. I got as far as the flash tool loading my backup but no tool or adb iterface has been able to assist because they don't see the device for any longer than a few seconds. It toggles off and on. I saw a tutorial that advised me to disassemble to the motherboard and hard-bridge it... is this really my only option? I really doubt it, but I have exhausted my knowledge archive.

To add insult to injury, I have a psuedo-bricked LG Lucid as well, due to my lack of concentration and working on two devices from 2 different makers at the same time. This devices is stuck in a hybrid loop of hard reset/boot loop. Goes from LG logo to backlight screen to android update guy continuously. Nice...

:confused::mad:
[Device Reviews and Information] zaksimmermon:
I had the same problem you were having. If you look about 5 post up you'll see the answer to this problem. I found a tutorial online that said you needed to load the scatter file check all the boxes then click download and then plug in your phone. Don't plug in your phone then click download. That's what I was doing and my phone would turn on and off and on and off and I couldn't get the computer to recognize it long enough. Good luck and let me know how it goes.
[Device Reviews and Information] SCrid2000:
Do you have the VCOM drivers installed? http://depositfiles.com/files/c0cse01xq (from http://forum.androidurdu.net/showthread.php?tid=697, but I don't like how they try to block you from using an adblocker).
[Device Reviews and Information] zaksimmermon:
yes I did. It was just that my phone would be off, and as soon as I connected my USB device to begin the flash, it would automatically try to boot back up before the download would start. This was causing the computer to recognize the phone for a split second, but it wouldn't stay recognized on the computer long enough before the bootloop took effect.

Solving this issue is as simple as clicking the download button in spflash tool and then plugging in the USB device
[Device Reviews and Information] zaksimmermon:
Oh yeah one more thing. After clicking download, make sure you are holding the volume up button while plugging in the phone via USB.

Extreme Battery Drain

Has anyone else noticed extreme battery drain after unplugging the phone from AC power? I plug my phone in at night before bed (using the factory AC adapter), then unplug it when I wake up and head out the the door. I don't use it much in the first hour or 2 of the day, but sometimes the battery will be down to 80% in those 2 hours with almost no use. Battery usage stats show Phone Idle as the key culprit.

Interestingly, if I reboot the phone, it fixes the issue and the battery life is great. For example, I rebooted right after I unplugged the phone this morning and in 2 hours, battery is at 99%. I actually setup a Tasker profile to automatically reboot the phone after I unplug it.

Just wondering if I'm the only one seeing this issue?
[Device Reviews and Information] fmehrtens:
I noticed the same thing after I updated to the latest build. I was careful about what apps were running, but the drain was mostly from idle processes. The restart worked for me also.
