[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] t4n017:
Glad you shared this. I'm also having WiFi problems and it's driving me nuts. I couldn't figure out if it was my ISP, my router or the phone itself. The symptoms are similar to those that you describe.

Toggling airplane mode seems to fix it, but just for a few minutes.

I'm also on V9 but it was happening on V8.7 too.

I'll try to get a log to share.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
There may be a deeper issue. Blu had initially pulled there 8.5 update because of many connection issues after the ota.

They supposedly fixed it with 8.6

Maybe similar issue as you are having.

??
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] rlaska:
Man, I'm sorry the airplane mode doesn't fix your phone for more than a few minutes. I only have to reset airplane mode every few days now.

The other big thing I did was do a hard reset of the phone from the bootloader, and set it up all over again.

If airplane mode isn't helping, a hard reset might help (although I understand it's realllly painful to do.)

If it helps, I use an IFTTT recipe to back up my SMS to spreadsheets on google drive -- but this only works in real time, not as a retroactive backup.

Here's the instructions for doing the hard reset

Best of luck!!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] funkychinaman:
I've got the same issues with my R1 HD. I have airplane mode turned on, but I haven't tried toggling it on and off. I don't want to have to resort to the hard reset, but I'm willing to try it if nothing else.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] rlaska:
What I've learned from previous replies is that toggling airplane mode on and off does a more complete reset of the networking software than just turning wifi on and off.

Do any of you guys have issues with Google Assistant not wanting to text anyone? It's driving me nuts!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] tsongming:
It seems that you tried almost everything.

If you root the phone with Magisk you could install a wide range of apps that would improve WIfi. Unfortunately, I am not sure if Magisk will work on a Blu phone.

For now maybe try using, the DNS Changer app from Google play. It does not require root and will allow you to lock into 8.8.8.8 within your phone.

Next, in your router there should be an option to scan the 2.5 ghz channel range and automatically select one that is not being used by your neighbors. Finally, its quite possible that the update caused the issue. It seems that Blu has had quite a few issues with their recent system updates. Whenever, you can afford it. Get rid of the phone. You can buy the Le Eco Pro 3 on Amazon for $178...it has a Snapdragon 821 processor!

By the way, I own two Blu phones: both are now in a box. I replaced both phones with Le Eco pro 3. Best phone I have ever owned.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] rlaska:
Unfortunately, the DNS change doesn't help the problem I had. I tried to manually set the DNS to 8.8.8.8, but it still wouldn't connect to anything. I just think BLU's firmware isn't all that great, and I don't know if they have any actual form of service (other than the extended warranty I was silly enough to purchase). Thank goodness for xda, because I now have a very effective workaround that I only have to use once a day or so (and that doesn't take a long time to cycle through).

The reason I didn't try harder to troubleshoot the wifi network itself is that this phone does the same thing at home, at work, and at Starbucks, and taking it from one place to another doesn't reset the issue. Wifi is just BROKE. Also, none of our other devices (two laptops, two desktops, three iphones, and three iPads) have any such problems.

LeEco sounds like an interesting budget phone. I'm a little wary of budget phones after my BLU, though, since the BLU had relatively glowing reviews initially. I might try saving up for an LG or something. The reviews on the BLU were pretty high, but the performance and stability didn't last very long. Some apps are painfully slow to use, although the system in general is tolerable. I'll keep it for a year (until June) and then look at other options ;)

Are there any good sites to find out about quality budget phones? The budget phones that carriers push are really crappy, Amazon seems rather haphazard, and most of the big Android websites mostly push the very expensive stuff.

I think it's absolutely bananas to pay $700 every two years, but what do I know? :laugh:

Thanks for the tips. I appreciate everyone's helpfulness. This forum is the best!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Le Eco isn't a Budget phone. It is a top tier phone that has few peers among 2016 phones.

If you look at the specs of the Le Eco Pro 3 Us version ( X727) vs a One Plus 3 T, or One Plus 5 ( $450-$600) range phones or compare it to a Samsung S7 or S8 and you will see that the specs are very similar.

The reason, the Le Eco Pro 3 phone is cheap ( $179) is because they more or less went out of business in the US, due to foolish expansion spending. But, I can not recommend these phones enough. They will be supported by members of XDA for the next few years. Even the $139 Le Eco S3 has a Snap dragon 625 processor! If you do end up buying one, PM me and I will be happy help you with getting it configured.

Obviously, I love these phones, I enjoy the customization options and speed Antutu: https://www.kimovil.com/en/leeco-le-pro-3/antutu

Plus, you can pretty much put any version of Android on these phones, including the new Pixel Camera!

I realize this may not be your thing. if you want something safe and inexpensive maybe go for a Motorola G5, or a Honor 6. Both are outstanding phones supported by solid companies.

Back to Blu, they do indeed have a tech support number: US: 1-877-602-8762.

If your phone is under warranty, from what I have read they will repair it. Although it could take up to a week. If you by chance bought the phone on Amazon. They have a A to Z guarantee and will give you a refund for up to 90 days after purchase. Plus, you could have your refund in a couple of days.

In the end, I agree that your issue is related to the firmware.

It really does sound like you tried everything to resolve the issue. But, did you try resetting the phone? If not, that may work.

My daughter has a Blu R1 HD that I just replaced with a Le Eco S3. ( For her major upgrade) But, the Blu R1 HD is actually a decent phone. It just sounds like their update caused a corruption issue. In my experience these issues are common in phones that have a locked boot-loader. So It is likely a permissions conflict that you probably will not be able to solve without Blu's help or maybe just resetting the phone.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] emc2cube:
[MENTION=8566520]rlaska[/MENTION] Same problem here, on various ROMs.

By any chance, do you have the amazon prime music app installed? If yes could you try uninstalling it and reboot. Oddly enough for me it seemed to restore a normal wifi that after removing it from my phone. So far I'm thinking it's not really related, but well don't really hurt to test.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] rlaska:
That's wild! As far as I know, you can't uninstall it, but you can disable it. I've disabled it, so we'll see if that helps.

Sounds like a long shot, but you never know! ;)
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Vulnerability:
Mines been disabled and my phone has WiFi issues every so often so it can't be related to that app.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] emc2cube:
It would have surprised me if it was that too, the app have been updated a few times already an problem were still there.

An other possible explanation is that this app was responsible for most of my WiFi data use, so maybe it's working for me just because now I basically don't use as much wifi as I used with the app installed.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] bibikalka:
[MENTION=8566520]rlaska[/MENTION], [MENTION=5312578]mrmazak[/MENTION], [MENTION=6782683]emc2cube[/MENTION]

Just upgraded to V9.0 today (thanks to [MENTION=5312578]mrmazak[/MENTION] for the full V9.0 zip!), and got hit with some WiFi instabilities on the spot! In the middle of the file download, the WiFi would die, and it'd go to the LTE mode.

I was thinking - if factory reset makes WiFi more stable, it'd be far easier to clear data for some specific system apps (either in Titanium Backup or some other place). Do we have a rough idea which system apps have anything to do with WiFi? One could clear data for the Settings app, if that's of use. Doing a full system reset is a bit too time consuming.

Anyway, I updated my WiFi manager (not sure if that helps), and installed a "Wi-Fi history" app from the store to track when it's connecting/disconnecting. Also, I found this curious thread about WiFi&Bluetooth issues - bluetooth link.

Switching off Bluetooth, and resetting WiFi via the Airplane mode seems to have made the connections more stable.

But overall, otherwise V9.0 feels snappier than V7.4.2 that I upgraded from. I will observe over time.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] mrmazak:
Thanks for the input, I don't use the r1 anymore. So cannot comment on the wifi issue directly. Perhaps some emails or calls to Blu about wifi issues with the new v9 update could get them to put out a new fixed update, that's what happened with he short lived v8.3- it had intermittent wifi connection.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] t4n017:
I went back to V8.7 (only wiped dalvik cache) and so far so good WiFi issues seem to be gone. It was driving me nuts on V9
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] bibikalka:
So far WiFi in my V9 appears stable (knock on wood). Are you also using Bluetooth?

It might also be possible to use V9, but replace wpa_supplicant from an earlier version (and perhaps, a few other files). I don't think it goes all the way to the kernel.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] funkychinaman:
How do you go back?
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] yaconsult:
If your phone is rooted, you just flash the earlier version of the ROM from the top of this thread. If your phone is not rooted, you can't go back to an older ROM.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] funkychinaman:
A firmware upgrade got pushed yesterday, version 9.2. Let's see if it fixes the problem.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Vulnerability:
9.2 seems much better than before with the WiFi issues, not sure if it's just me or if they actually changed something. Haven't had any of the frequent WiFi issues since I've updated!
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Ragdim:
Started noticing extremely slow wifi a little over a week ago (other devices don't have this issue). I upgraded from v9 to v9.2 4 days ago and wifi is still very slow. Device isn't rooted either, so idk what to do. ; /

edit: downloaded a dns changer onto the phone and that seems to have fixed it. Weird considering I did literally nothing when this issue started occurring.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] weitau:
Turn off Bluetooth to stabilize WiFi

I was experiencing the same problems until I turned off bluetooth. Used wifi for 3 hours without interruption. I'm on Build BLU_R0010UU_V9.2.

[Magisk] Joynaruto:
I found the advanced setiings were chosen after I updated the magisk manager apk and zip today.

These two choices were not chosen before I updated.

So what are these two choices mean?

I googled a lot but found noting useful....
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Read the release notes and changelog in the release thread.
[Magisk] Mark_C-01:
Advance setting for magisk is there a thread on this

As above looking for the thread advance settings for magisk

Please

any info
[Magisk] madbat99:
They explain themselves. Preserve dm verity or forced encryption. They used to just be on the main part of magisk manager. Now they say advanced settings. They are still the same thing. They are options for the installation of magisk.

Your device has dmverity and forced encryption built in. Some people choose to keep them when installing magisk. Some don't. Some devices cannot boot if you keep those 2 preserved.

if you have magisk installed and those two things are checked, then they are allowed to be checked no big deal leave it alone. You still have DM verity and forced encryption.

If you don't want them, un check the two boxes and install magisk again. No more DM verity no more forced encryption. But your device will still be encrypted until you format your date.

Jeez people, read the documentation before you install things. Instead of " I want root, I'm gonna flash stuff".
[Magisk] wilsonhlacerda:
Probably the main user points are "What is DM Verity?", "What is Forced Encryption? Encryption of what?". On old devices or people that comes from supersu those terms may really be weird things.
[Magisk] madbat99:
Encryption of your data. You're entire device is encrypted. Dmverity is your device verity. If any part of your device is not verified as genuine it will not boot.

If these concepts are foreign to you you should not modify your device at all and you should leave this form as soon as possible.
[Magisk] Light_8-0:
I would suggest to stay on this 'FORM' as long as possible, in order to be able to learn anything. :cool:

Concerning the DM verity subject, here is something interesting that brings some light

:

Dm-verity stores a hash of the filesystem and allows for forward error correction.

Basically dm-verity can protect against malware modifying the system, however it can also protect from accidental corruption with its forward-error-correction feature.

Custom ROMs can potentially benefit from dm-verity, because the ROM developer can modify the build system and follow aosp build guidelines

and sign the ROM with their own keys and the bootloader will accept them. Locking bootloader on custom ROMs and still having verity pass is great.
[Magisk] Prabhakarlal15:
My mobile is redmi note 7s and I have successfully installed magisk, in advance setting I have preserve dm verity checked but preserve force encr... Un checked

What should I select pls suggest and also when I set up a screen lock on my phone say '1234', after l lock the screen and tried to unlock it it not unlock withe the same password, due to this i have to format my phone in recovery and again flash magisk and do all setup again in phone, now my devicd without screen lock it's working well, but I want screen lock can you help me out
[Magisk] neha.onespy:
Is there any way to reboot into recovery mode when user rebooting their device by clicking power button with the help of magisk?
[Magisk] Jrod333:
Jeez people, read the documentation before you install things. Instead of " I want root, I'm gonna flash stuff".[/QUOTE]

So.. No questions are allowed in this forum? Oh, and curious to know, do you read everything, all information about everything you download? (not saying this info was hidden in fine print or anything but this or that.. Same thing.) Even the pages upon pages of fine print? WAIT... that was two questions... My bad

P. S if you say yes to question #2, I would be leaning towards calling bullsh*t on that. I don't think I have seen one post on here without somebody like you.... It's a damn shame. The help and support xda had when I first found it is really what drew me in... Almost like a family and everybody looked out for each other and seemed to genuinely enjoy teaching others with less experience. But I can understand the same questions over and over when the answer is right above in bold can get old fast... Maybe iam just getting old. Anyways iam done, sorry for off topic on a old comment.

[ZTE Zmax Pro Questions & Answers] nuplix:
Hey,

There are several threads on different forums discussing the ROOT issue of the ZTE ZMAX PRO phone. I, in fact, posted on MOKEE ROM forum the query to ROOT the phone, but they told me that ZMAX PRO is not available in China, so no one has this phone. Otherwise, I was hoping a solution from them.

ZMAX PRO is a good phone, and it's disappointing to see that it can't be rooted.
