Is there anyway to clear dalvik on an unrooted in the recovery?
[Device Reviews and Information] vampir4997:
Need custom recovery to clear dalvik. Just root it
[Device Reviews and Information] scohut:
Not my phone, my gf's and she doesn't want it rooted. Just wondered cause the one time I went into the recovery on this thing I didn't really get how to navigate and stuff. Just wondered if by some chance it was do-able.
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Dalvik Cache is in /cache partition, so if you wipe cache Dalvik must be wipe too
[Device Reviews and Information] frydaddy07:
Yeah I did that shortly after my last post here. it works, but I am unable to root due to fastboot hanging up after I run a command. not sure what the issue is, but it might be on my computer's end.
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Try with kingroot
[Device Reviews and Information] frydaddy07:
I was going to try it if fastboot failed again, but it worked. I just needed to run the "oem unlock" command first.

Any news on a firmware update? It's been months
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Glad to hear that, did lte bands change when you flashed system.img?
[Device Reviews and Information] frydaddy07:
I haven't found any annoyingly enough. Can anyone verify that This ROM is fake? not gonna flash for safety sake but the comments look very suspect.

Yeah bands are back to US bands. I had to change my IMEI info back to normal using an MTK Engineering app, but it's a five minute process so not too bad.
[Device Reviews and Information] Teblakuda4o4:
Yea... I wouldn't suggest using that site. It always magically has a totally bug free rom for all phones.
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
[MENTION=6974655]frydaddy07[/MENTION] So do you think bands selection depends on system files?

Nvm

BLU Life One X 2016 (Bluetooth)

BLU Life One X 2016

Blu Life One X

When Bluetooth is turned on, it toggles ON and OFF continuously for a bit, then off.

Apart from Factory Resetting the device, can someone assist me with reinstalling the Bluetooth Driver, or some other remedy.

I have done the "Clear Cache" thing and that didn't work.

Thanks in advance.﻿

Anyone getting this (see inserted picture) when charging? It started showing up and I'm sure I don't have any battery boosting apps installed. Also, anyone bought this phone and it come not vibrating? Like vibrate and ring or even haptic feedback while typing?

That is crap adware that comes with es file explorer. You can disable it in es file explorer or uninstall it. I think it also comes attached to other apps to.

I can't get adb to work with this phone on either of my computers, one a mac, the other running windows 7. I don't have enough posts to link to an upload of a screenshot nor can I find where to upload an image normally, but what's happening is the ADB Interface fails to install and I get a yellow triangle next to ADB Interface in Device Manager. If I try to install the drivers manually Windows tells me it can't find the driver in the folder I've selected or that there isn't a compatible driver there for my device. I've tried using the Kindle drivers from the first page and the latest Google drivers. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Google "adb drivers", it's a tool that fix adb drivers issues, or try the usb drivers on op

No marshmallow update

When this device was originally announced, Blu said that it would receive an update to Marshmallow "early 2016." I contacted Blu recently and they said that this device will receive no future updates. Personally, I would not have gotten this phone had they not promised this update. This almost feels like a lawsuit. How many of you purchased this phone at least partially because of the promised update?

[Device Reviews and Information] idontkn1:
I am a bit disappointed but not at all surprised. Unless I am buying a Nexus or a flagship phone, I don't expect anything more than what came with the device. It's a unlocked Chinese phone tweaked for US bands with pretty good specs and a minimal amount of bloat for $99 to $150 bucks that is easily rootable and has a custom recovery. That's why I bought it not because someone said it would get 6.0.
[Device Reviews and Information] joeybear23:
How long have you been running these settings?

Do you use an advanced CPU control app, or just play with these settings until you get a good mix of performance and battery life?
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
You need a root file Explorer and edit the file like text, I have few days looking for a good match
[Device Reviews and Information] joeybear23:
Just asking because I use an app I bought years ago for another phone called SetCPU, and I set profiles for CPU frequency for screen on, screen off, apps, etc. and I have had good results.
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
This is something different
[Device Reviews and Information] ToucanRask:
OK, so, I'm not very familiar with everything on here, but just from reading the frequency list, are you just forcing the cores to run at full speed the whole time? It isn't very battery friendly, and you can just set your core speeds easily from Kernel Adiutor.
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Nop, what we get editing that file are rules, the first one for example means how many cores and at what frequency you want to use when touch the screen, another rule is when you switch apps and also when you launch apps

I had success using the guide but whenever I attempt to flash I get a " 'Could not find "META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file" error.

Would you happen to know how to fix that, by the way, I am using twrp 3.0.0.0, the one posted a couple of threads back, do you think that is the issue?
[Device Reviews and Information] psychoTR2:
Awesome! I'll have to test when I get off work. I'm really excited now! :laugh:
[Device Reviews and Information] BuildMineSurvive:
how exactly do you install this ported rom? i have twrp 3.0.0.0 and i'm rooted. do you use twrp?
[Device Reviews and Information] elix9000:
Go to Wipe, Advanced, wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache, Although please have a system back up,I don't want you to be bricked. Furthermore, on twrp 3.0.0.0 you most likely will get a "Could find update binary" or something like that stating the file directory and that it did not find it.
[Device Reviews and Information] ToucanRask:
Will flashing the rom with cwm be fine? I keep forgetting to switch to TWRP.
[Device Reviews and Information] elix9000:
Actually.....would you mind trying to flash it with CWM, I want to isolate what is stopping this rom from flashing. About your question I have no idea if it would flash in cwm or not but all we know is in twrp it will not flash. Before you try though, I recommend you have a system backup in case it actually flashes on CWM.
[Device Reviews and Information] ToucanRask:
Alright, will update on status in a bit.
[Device Reviews and Information] ToucanRask:
Hey, so, I saw the thread about the rom, and I saw that you just needed to change the boot.img and you might actually fix it. Do you still want me to flash the rom and see if it works with CWM? I have it ready to flash and everything I just wanted to make sure.
[Device Reviews and Information] elix9000:
Yes please, I don't want it to be one of those things where everyone has to use twrp because while even i. prefer twrp I try not. to inconvenience others. I appreciate your efforts by the way
[Device Reviews and Information] ToucanRask:
Yeah, it doesn't work. I did a factory reset on the wipe menu, installed the rom, and it just gives me an "installation aborted..." error.

Hey guys I understand how to flash the ROM but I also want to use the kernel and I don't understand how to do that part is there any way someone can help me out?
[Device Reviews and Information] juancollado2003:
Easy, put the three files on same folder, load stalker with sptool, match just lk and boot, hit download, power off your phone, connect your phone, wait for done message, sometimes I need to boot to recovery and power off the phone by menu because powering off the phone by hardware button don't completely power off the phone and sptool didn't detect it
[Device Reviews and Information] psychoTR2:
I'm not sure if this kernel works with the custom ROMs (I don't see why not), as I'm still on the stock V14 ROM. If, so...

Here's what you'll need:

-SP Flash Tool (link found in the OP)

-The boot.IMG, scatter and lk.bin.IMG files (few posts back if you can't find them, it's a post with 3 files attached)

-Make sure the proper drivers are installed. Personally, I had to install the Mediatek VCOM USB drivers to make this work, but you may be able to do it with just the drivers in the OP. I have Windows 10, by the way.

0) MAKE A BACKUP!

1) Extract SP Flash Tool from its archive.

2) Place the boot.IMG, scatter, and lk.bin.IMG files on the Desktop, rename "lk.bin.IMG" to "lk.bin" (lowercase "L").

3) Right click flash_tool.exe and select "Run as Administrator".

4) Under "Download," click the "Scatter-loading" button, and select the scatter text file on your Desktop. You should then see check marks next to "lk" and "boot" in the partition list, and the locations of the corresponding files already put in.

5) Power off your phone.

6) Click the "Download" button in the flash tool.

7) Connect the phone to your PC.

8) You should get some activity on the bottom of the window; that means it's flashing the kernel.

8-1) If you get nothing, click "Stop," close the tool, disconnect your phone, and try installing the Mediatek VCOM USB drivers (file and tutorial are here: http://www.spflashtooldownload.com/2015/11/sp-flash-tool-how-to-unbrick-any.html?m=1). You may need to disable driver signature checks for the drivers to install properly (tutorial is here: http://www.urtech.ca/2016/01/solved...es-not-contain-digital-signature-information/). Once that's finished, start again from Step 3.

8-2) If you get activity, but then it ends in an error, click "Stop" and close the tool, but keep your phone connected and see if Windows is trying to install your device (it happened to me, due to the new drivers, and I got a DRAM error, so just a heads-up). Once Windows does its thing, start again from Step 3.

8-3) Any other issues, feel free to let us know!

9) If all is well, you should get a small windows with a big green check mark! That's the OK to close the tool, disconnect your phone and power that puppy back on!

That's what I, personally, had to do to get the kernel installed. Hope this helps!

EDIT: Whoops, looks like Juan beat me to the punch as I was writing this massive tutorial, hehe.

[Device Reviews and Information] H4MM3RD0WN:
Since the root is systemless we'll be able to take the OTA for marshmallow when is comes out? Then re-flash supersu? Or does custom recovery prevent OTA upgrade?
