Well it is hosted on a weird website, but this is the direct link that the phone OTA software (fota, which is known to be terrible) use (captured with Wireshark). It can easily be verified.

It seems the real manufacturer of the phone is "tinno" http://www.tinno.com/En/Profile/Index.html and lot of the internal apps / update files use mirrors on http://www.jstinno.com too.

Updated the original ad removal post with TWRP install files http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=67892852&postcount=567 link on the index still valid.

This updated method remove the need of wiping the data and will remove all ads, even the one currently displayed on the lock screen.

Root or exposed are not required (only TWRP obviously) so it won't affect the device security.

I created 2 scripts, one to clean everything, the other one leave the Underground app store in the system.

If you use it a lot, it's nice as it will update the apps automatically without the need of allowing unknown sources.

OTA are disabled by renaming the updater. Safer than the previous method (pm disable and pm hide), and safer than deleting if we need it later.

I have posted a guide for converting the Prime version to non-Prime, and vice versa. It also allows unbrick, restore, undo OTA, undo changes, etc. The second post also has an in-depth, newb friendly, step by step rooting guide for the non-Prime variant. http://xdaforums.com/r1-hd/how-to/guide-convert-to-prime-rollback-ota-t3432499

In addition, I have mirrored the only OTA: https://eu.mirrors.coltondrg.com/co....4_GENERIC_6.0_20160710-00151468612925207.zip

(I plan to mirror any other OTA too, you will be able to find them in the folder https://eu.mirrors.coltondrg.com/coltondrg/r1hd/stockota/)

And posted SPFT compatible stock images for both variants (intended for use with my guide). https://eu.mirrors.coltondrg.com/coltondrg/r1hd/stockoob/

I also mirrored our TWRP: https://eu.mirrors.coltondrg.com/coltondrg/r1hd/twrp-3.0.2-1-r1hd-lopestom.img

Updated posts.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] :
No, that's the update for the Prime version. I just created another mirror. There are no updates for the OEM version yet. It ships with V12. The repository will include OTAs for both version. I might separate them into directories if needed once we get OTAs for the OEM version

My guide actually is for both variants. The most obvious use is to convert Prime to OEM, but it can be used to convert from OEM to Prime, as well as restoring, unbricking, undoing OTAs, etc. It's a universal guide for all variants! :D The second post also contains an in-depth rooting guide for the OEM variant that I believe to be more user friendly than the original post. Also, my name is ColtonDRG, not ColtonDGR. I'm sure that's a simple typo. :)
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] bullet25:
Okay. I didn't actaully know the OEM Variant didn't get an OTA yet. If you could make a different directory for each variant in that /r1hd/stockota/ folder that would be appreciated just so I can keep one link at the top of the OTA section. Otherwise just let me know each link so I can add them to their respective section.

I also moved the one guide to the both section.

Also is the build number the same for the OEM firmware or does it have a different build number?
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Absolutely. I'll make those directories now.

UPDATE: Done. Now there's .../r1hd/stockota/prime/ and .../r1hd/stockota/normal/. I moved the one file into the prime directory too, so you'll have to update the other link to avoid 404.

Awesome.

Model numbers are inaccurate. Amazon 16/2 is R0030UU, OEM 16/2 is R0031UU, Amazon 8/1 is R0010UU, OEM 8/1 is R0011UU.

I have only confirmed both 16/2 models physically, but evidence from the software suggests that the 8/1s are as I listed here. :)

P.S. There is no physical difference between Amazon and OEM versions besides the model number printed on the phone. Everything else is identical.
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] bullet25:
Fixed. I was going off an assumption for that based on the model number printed on my device and what their support site listed.

Are you sure, I have 16/2 flashed to Colton's OEM build and I'm showing R0011UU
[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Positive. The physical model number on the phone is what I am talking about. The model number in software is the one for the 8/1 model since they share the same ROM.

Ha, you just put my OCD in overdrive, had to go edit build.prop to reflect the right model # lol

There is a custom rom out now, Vampirefo has a ZenUI rom out. Uses the ZenUI, has FM working out of the box, and just "looks pretty". A few issues though, no auto rotation, no changing IME's, default adblock you can't turn off (good and bad). Still, runs pretty well, and again, looks pretty :).

Might be a good idea to add a link to how to enable FM. Simple, and works great. Something that really should be enabled by default, everybody needs FM if only for emergencies.

1. Try again.

2. Proceed H/W checking in download cable and target side com port.

3. Monitor if power-drop occured in target side.

*Could this be an SD card issue as my phones default internal memory location is the SD card and its kind of slow*

[BLU R1 HD Guides, News, & Discussion] wilderjds:
So I am trying to get rid of the preinstalled malware identified as Yemobi (Android communication sync) on an unrooted phone. Of course nothing works as it's installed as a system app. I wonder if there is a chance to block its network traffic using tools such as dns66, which act as VPN and should in principle be able to redirect traffic for system apps.

Any pointer in this direction?

Flashing a custom kernel requires an unlocked bootloader.

Please read THIS if you're interested in unlocking your device's bootloader.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kentexcitebot:
If you stick with Sony's firmware, you must have a kernel based on it. Flashing any CM/AOSP-based kernels will conflict and bootloop.

These stuffs could be easier removed from the SYS. They are packed within seperate folders already. So no hard work is needed :)

Maybe I should seperate those stuffs in next version (if there is any) to make the ROM even easier for noobs.

Maybe I would just build a seperate package for this
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Maybe i didn't use the right words.

What i wanted to say sort of is.

That you don't need to remove the actuall packages.

You split the whole rom up by adding option.xml files.

You set the needed folders to True and the unneeded folders to False.

Just check the option.xml i just attached for the entertainment folders.

Also are removed files from Oem folders brought into a new DSM file to prevent Missing files when extracting the rom.

And if WLM is removed do you add the removed Shortcuts to the WLM packages.

You know me i'm saying this to help, because if you want a good true vanilla it has to be perfect.

I've added some new packages to Elf Repository for use in kitchen.

HTCHome 2.1 plug in with Added Tab settings.

Updated Network Wizard SD and MM Package.

WWAN (if only for the option xml file, it's pretty useless to have anyway)

Multiple GlyphChace Settings Oem Packages.

All using Xtriny's new Build which does allow changing of Pagepool settings.

There's a memory fault in the pre 5.2.1933 version of 2.2 Rom.

At the moment i just started a new ROM and it's going to take weeks to finish it.

Luckely no ones waiting for a new ROM anymore because they are popping up left and right.

So i can take my time. I think it's time i take my responsibility and stop being a chef.

A lot is going wrong and i'm not talking about you.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] evermick:
Looks like we are making another "Pandora" style kitchen when we add option.xml to individual packages.

It is a good idea, but will consume lots of time. Let me see if I could do it :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
That's what i mean. But you don't need to do this alone.

I'm uploading every detail i can find.

So there's allready a lot of packages available.

After every change i make a selectable package.

And even when you re extract the rom you don't get missing files.

For instance when you remove files from OAMAPPS folder and rebuild the DSM contents. All the modules in folders won't be added and you still have missing files.

But if you then take the EXE's and DLL's out of the folder sand put them into OEMAPPS folder and then make Rebuild the DSM you won't have missing files.

Weird thing is that when you then extract that NBH file the OEMAPPS will then be extracted to SYS folder instead.

This shouldn't be a big problem as you have probaply seen in other kitchen's

Here's a Vanilla Based on 2.2 os 5.2.1933

You can extract the Rom and recook it.

But if you download the .nbh file and extract the os.nb then read the PP chaging tutorial in th cooking class kitchen you can check if it has the correct value.

If the value for pagepool is 20 it is for both elf and elfin.

Greetz Foe
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Gartak:
I´m not sure, but if your IPL / SPL is the patched version, it has overwrite protection, and the ROM you´re trying to flash is full, it contains all areas: IPL, SPL, ROM, Splash and Radio.

The way around is to extract the individual ROM components and rebuild the NBH file including only the ROM section, leaving IPL, SPL, Splash and Radio out. When you flash this one, IPL/SPL won´t be overwritten, so no error will pop.

Any kitchen around comes with all the tools you need for the procedure. If you don´t know how to do it, take a look at the forums, this subject is very well covered.

Hope this helps.
