This is a collection thread of the Fastboot ROMs files for Mi1/1S/2/2S/2A/3/Pad.
"http://en.miui.com/thread-14641-1-1.html"
Fastboot is one way to flash ROMs to your phone, it's safer than flashing in Recovery mode. Different phones enter Fastboot mode differently, e.g. for Xiaomi devices, you should turn off your phone, and hold the Volume+ & the Power button at the same time. You could find the way for you device using Google. When flashing ROMs in fastboot mode, you should connect your phone to the computer via USB cable.
The files are arranged reverse from the latest ROM version, please pay attention when downloading.
You could use Ctrl + F to quickly find the ROM version you're looking for.

Please make sure you power off the device before inserting sim cards.
You need to use the correct size sim.
Does your sim definitely work in another phone with the same frequency bands?

Review
For those following my reviews you will notice that this one (and all other that might be released in the future) is different. Why? I don't want my reviews to be all the same anymore, so i am adopting this new format that is shorter, easier to read and without lots of photos.
Joining the battery phones area, the BLUBOO S3 comes with an huge 8500mAh battery (real capacity, confirmed with my USB Tester) but low/mid-end specsfor the 2018, probably the only real downside about this device.
Something that really impressed me is the amount of accessories provided in the box, absolutely outstanding, and here is a full list of them: 1x Type-C to Micro/Type-C/Lightning USB to charge other devices, 1x Type-C to USB A adapter, 1x Pump Express Charger (up to 12v), 1x USB Type-C Cable, 1x Type-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack adapter, 1x Extra Plastic Screen Protector and 1x Black TPU cover. The most complete set i have ever seen for a smartphone, seriously.
Nothing to complain about its build quality, it is well-made with no imperfections, even though i am not an huge fan of this plastic back case since it makes the device really slippery and doesn't feel nice in the hand. I like the visual effect though, similar to a grill. The weight that BLUBOO declares can be confirmed, 285g based on my scale, not extreme considering the metal chassis.
The FHD+ 18:9 screen is just perfect, pretty bright, with excellent colors and a reasonable refresh rate (not excessive smearing effect can be noticed). Bezels are limited enough, but could have been slimmer.
Something i have to complain about is the software. BLUBOO writes Android 8.1 on the box while the device runs Android 7.0 instead. Sure, i know that the website says Android 7.0 (upgradable via OTA to 8.1 soon), but you can't write false things on the box, instead "7.0 (8.1 via OTA)" would have been better and fair. I hope to not see this happening again.
Anyway, the Android 7.0 Nougat OS (usual Mediatek release) runs decently but its smoothness is limited but the chipset that isn't ideal to handle a FHD+ screen. An Helio P23 or P25 is the minimum for this resolution IMHO.
But, there is something really important to say about this software release: it doesn't come with any malware/virus unlike what happened with all previous BLUBOO devices. Well done BLUBOO for the positive change.
This is the first device, as far as i remember, that comes with a dedicated option to charge other devices. I am not sure if it does allow more than the usual 0.5A USB current, but i doubt it is just a placeholder option. Unfortunately i don't have an USB trigger that can be used together with my tester to show the real current, but if some of you can do this test, please leave here a post.
Confirming what i mentioned before, benchmarks are quite low due to the high-res display, but some of them (those not GPU-intensive) perfectly match other MT6750T devices.
Here you can see all of them: https://imgur.com/a/CeKxs6t
Unfortunately the GPS Antenna is the achilles heel of this device, completely unusable indoors (left), and just decent outdoors (right).
Average 4G signal reception with decent speeds, and the same applies to 3G networks. Unfortunately there is no WiFi AC support, but in WiFi N-mode 5GHz i am able to get the maximum speed from my internet connection.
Camera are slightly over average for a battery phone, with a Samsung 16MP sensor for both sides (back and front), holding the second primate about this camera configuration, never seen before. The back camera is able to shot sufficient photos, as noisy as on all Mediatek Devices coming with this camera sensor, and sometimes, without HDR mode turned on, photos seem to be over-exposed, but the amount of detail is impressive unless the amount of available light decreases. Let's say that it requires just some minor improvements via an OTA update.
Finally, the battery life of the beast. First of all, i need to clarify something about this MT6750T chipset. It is super power-hungry, not power efficient, and on this device it is stressed to the maximum due to the max resolution. What does it mean? It means that even with such a big battery, it is hard to get good results, and the PCMark Battery Test can confirm that, only 18h. The Helio P23, with smalller batteries, is able to exceed that result. Still, it is not a bad result, just don't expect miracles even though the battery capacity is real.
What to say about this device...if BLUBOO (or well, sellers) manages to keep the price low, i think it can be declared as one of the best Mediatek battery phones available on the market, as long as they maintain the promise about this declared Android 8.1 Oreo OTA update.

Who's the first to publish TWRP for this phone? ?
And if someone could add the stock ROM to needrom.com so thus I could install Magic Manager to it ?
Anybody who has found out to mute the booting sound of the phone? It's pretty annoying, especially when the kids are sleeping and you have to turn on your phone.

BluBoo has provided the original stock rom and a S3 customized flash tool for download on their forum.

Some information about GPS: drove approx. 400 kms today and GPS never lost its track. So it ain't bad. Seen worse GPS antennas among Chinese Android phones.

hey Sensonic can you help us out with the files you used?
I found a version recently updated on needrom but Im not sure if something is wrong with it. I can unlock and flash it fine and use TWRP but thats where it ends.
needrom.com/download/twrp-3-2-1-for-bluboo-s3/
I get a request for a decryption password I dont have nor ever setup (phone is encrypted from the start in the menu) done the "default_password" ive setup a pin, swipe, etc and none of them will unlock.
I did some googling and people say to wipe the data but the phone just keeps returning to TWRP regardless of what I do.
Ive had to restore it with the original bluboo recovery just to get the phone to boot correctly again.
I must be missing something here.
edit: so I used twrp to update the boot with a magisk patched one then used twrp to overwrite itself with the stock recovery and now it boots fine with root. so kinda round about and I still cant use TWRP but at least it kinda works?

OK, goes like this. BTW, I'm not responsible if you'll brick your device etc.
You need:
-ADB Fastboot or similar
-Mediatek drivers
-SP Flashtool
-Bluboo S3 ROM
-TWRP img file
-patched Magisk Manager boot file
1. Unlock bootloader: Go to developers options and tick "OEM unlock" active.
Open ADB Fastboot (I presume you have MTK drivers already installed)
Connect your phone to your computer. Type "adb reboot-bootloader". The phone will boot itself to bootloader
Type "fastboot oem unlock" and press enter. Then push VOL plus on the phone. The phone will boot twice and ERASE ITSELF TO FACTORY SETTINGS.
2. When the bootloader has been unlocked, go back to developer options and enable USB debug.
Go to http://community.bluboohk.com/forums/topic/instructions-of-bluboo-s3/
Download ROM and SP Flash Tool (if you already don't have it on your computer)
3. Download TWRP img file: needrom.com/download/twrp-3-2-1-for-bluboo-s3/
4. Open SP Flash Tool, select scatter file from the ROM. Rename aforementioned image file to recovery.img and flash only that file to your phone. Now you have TWRP on your phone.
5. Power on your phone put the boot file of the ROM to your phone.
6. Install Magisk Manager APK to your phone. Choose "patched boot file" and point where you've saved the aforementioned boot file. The phone will save patched boot file to Magisk Manager's subfolder.
7. Connect the phone to your computer and save that patched boot file to your computer. Rename it to boot.img and replace the original boot.img file of the aforementioned ROM.
8. Open SP Flash tool, select scatter file again and flash only the aforementioned boot.img file.
Done. You have TWRP and a rooted phone :good:
Is there a reason to use the SP Flash Tool instead of fastboot other than flashing the entire ROM file? Is there anything different that the tool does from "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and "fastboot flash boot boot.img" that it should be used instead?

fastboot frequently mess up the partition layout on mediatek devices due to a poor implementation. Also, it forces you to unlock the bl, while with sp flash tool you can flash anything you want without unlocking it.
Hi All! Thanks for the info and review.
I have one of these and seem to have run into a couple of issues. Maybe the owners can help me figure things out.
1. I can't seem to get my Sd to work on my phone. I tried to format it on the phone but it gets stuck.
2. It gets hot, very hot when changing and pretty hot when I am using it for more than 5 or 10 mins.
3. For the life of me I can't figure out how to put the phone in silent (no vibration)
Any advice or info is thoroughly appreciated!

1) Any MicroSD or just that one?
2) Normal, you have to live with it.
3) Keep pressing the volume down button and you will enter the "Do not disturb" mode easily.

You can use flashtool (This destroys all data on your phone-make sure to back up)
1. Download flashtool, use torrent if you can, (or you can just wait 40 minutes for normal download)
2. Install drivers (c/flashtool/drivers/driver.exe) install drivers the 2 first can't remember the names
3. Launch flashtool
4. Press xperiafirm in the top screen
5. In the left select your xa1 variant
6. Find firmware for your region
7. Download it
8. Load script
9. Click on the thunder icon top left select flashmode
10. Select your firmware
11. Press wipe (userdata and cust-reset)
12. Press flash
13. Flashtool will show you how to do rest of it
hope this will help you, maybe some of this has changed its some time since I have updated my xa1
UPDATE:
I found a detailed toturial how to do this.

Report
i just installed R4 Version. when i try to open developer options, the settings app close, and it says that's stoped.
Last update of 8.1 r8 is available to download . For download click on actual link in the thread . (read thread and find new link for download )
Actually XA1 with my last rom support the same apps as Pixel XL . If you have problems with apps update in play store write to me pm . That was not system bug , but updater's bug if you use updater or if you don't do full update and you have stock system or boot etc.

Tutorial
How to apply OTA
Via Phone
The package "com.evenwell.OTAUpdate" has been deleted since November 2018 Update, this means, the *#*#874#*#* method, is no longer available
Prerequisites
Your charged phone
No PC & SD Card needed
Directions
1. Download the OTA zip file from this page first.
2. Go to download folder and rename the package to the corresponding zip name.
Example: B2N-322C-0-00WW-B01-update.zip
3. Place it to root directory of internal storage.
4. Open Phone App and dial *#*#874#*#* to update.
5. Wait for the update to finish and restart when prompted.
Via Recovery
Prerequisites
To update a device using a downloaded image, you will need the latest adb tool on your computer. You can get this from the Android SDK Platform-Tools package, which can be downloaded from here.
1. Ensure to modify the environment variable which includes the PATH where the adb executable can be found.
2. Ensure you've set up USB access for your device, as described in Run Apps on a Hardware Device (may have to remove hyperlink).
Download the build and flash your device
1. Ensure your device is up to date by going to Settings > About phone > System updates
2. Download the required image from the download button below.
3. With your device powered on and USB debugging enabled, execute: adb reboot recovery
If you're unable to use adb to reboot into recovery, you can alternatively use the following procedure:
A. Power off device, and insert USB to enter power off charge mode.
B. Press the Power key and Volume Up keys together for about 10 seconds.
C. Release both keys when the device vibrates.
D. After the Android screen, you should now be in Recovery Mode, indicated by the Android Warning logo and "No command".
E. Select the Recovery option from the bootloader menu and you should now be in "Recovery Mode" (confirmed by Android logo & red exclamation mark).
4. Hold the Power button and press Volume Up once, and a menu will appear:
Option 1: Via SD Card
Select the option “Apply update from SD Card” from the recovery options. Navigate to the OTA update zip and select it. Confirm installation.
Option 2: Via ADB
A. Select the option "Apply update from ADB".
B. Run the following command: adb devices and confirm your device displays "sideload".
C. Run the following command: adb sideload ota_file.zip - where "ota_file.zip" is the name of the downloaded file.
5. Once the update has finished, reboot the phone by selecting "Reboot system now".
6. For added security, you should consider disabling USB debugging when the device is not being updated.
Tutorial
How to Capture OTA Link
Requirements
1. You will first need to enable USB debugging on your Android phone.
2. Also, set up ADB and Fastboot on your PC.
3. If you have rooted your device using SuperSU or Magisk or installed TWRP recovery, then you will not be able to install the OTA update. However, the OTA notification will still be intact.
4. Make sure that the OTA update notification has arrived on your specific device. Do not download or install it just yet.
Method 1: Capture OTA Update URL using PC
1. Connect your phone to the PC using the USB cable.
2. Go to C:\adb on your PC. This is the folder where all the ADB and Fastboot binaries are present.
3. Hold the SHIFT key and right-click on an empty space inside this folder. Or type "CMD" in the Windows explorer's address bar where the adb is located.

}
4. Select ‘Open Command window here’ or ‘Open PowerShell window here’ option.
5. The command-line window shall open up on your PC.
6. Enter the command to capture OTA update URL on Windows:
adb logcat > ota.txt
7. As soon as you execute this command, grab your device without disturbing the USB connection.
8. Open the system update window and start downloading the update. After 10-15 seconds, pause/cancel the download.
9. Go back to the command-line screen and press the Ctrl + C key on your keyboard.
10. Now go to C:\adb and open the ‘ota.txt‘ file.
Search (Ctrl + F) the text file for this link:
Code:
https://ota.googlezip.net/packages/ota-api/lge_phoenixsprout_phoenixlaocom/
Using these keywords, you shall be able to locate and capture OTA URL. Once you have the URL, paste in your browser’s address bar and download the file.
Rooted users can simply use a terminal emulator to capture OTA update URL. Simply install a terminal emulator (Termux) on your phone. And then use the ‘logcat > /sdcard/ota.txt‘ command to capture a full logcat of the system. Remember, only push the download button when you have executed the command. The ota.txt file will be placed on the root of your device’s storage. Note that this method only allows you to capture Android OTA URL. You wouldn’t be able to sideload the .zip file on a rooted device.
Method 2: Capture OTA Update URL using ‘Take bug report’ Option
1. First, enable ‘Developer options‘ and install Solid Explorer on your phone.
2. Go to the system updates and start downloading the new update.
3. Quickly go to ‘Settings’ -> ‘Developer options’ and tap on ‘Take bug report’.
4. When prompted, select ‘Interactive report’.
5. Finally, tap on ‘REPORT’ to capture OTA update URL of the latest firmware.
6. The feature will automatically take a capture a complete log of your system.
7. You will be able to see the progress in the persistent notification.
8. Once complete, tap on the notification to share the bug report.
9. Tap on ‘Solid Explorer’ in the share menu and save the bug report to the storage.
When the report has been saved, open the file and search the text file for this link:
Code:
https://ota.googlezip.net/packages/ota-api/lge_phoenixsprout_phoenixlaocom/
You shall easily be able to capture Android OTA update URL in the file.
If you have been able to capture OTA update URL for your Android device, then kindly share it with us through the comments. It would be nice to help each other, right? Stay tuned while we get more tips to ease out your Android experience.

I'm sorry. If it's hard brick, you need to send it to your local store for that.

Just curious. I recently bought a used/unlocked Canadian LG G7 One. On getting it i updated to latest PIE update that showed up. However the security patch in my device is Dec 2018. Any idea why this is happening?

Did you try to factory reset? Maybe you'll get the whole latest update if you try to factory reset your phone.
MARK: Android 10 has been released to the public today. Hopefully, we get this final upgrade on our device before end of this quarter (Q3 2019).

I am in the same boat! Bought the phone on eBay a few weeks ago. Dec 2018 is the lastest patch. Were you able to find a solution to this?

I tried searching for solution everywhere. I am yet to find one. There are some suggestions that re-flashing the device with a compatible firmware would help. But I am done with that kind of stuff for a long time now. I am just going to keep using it the way it is. It is something to do with being a retail unit is my guess. i don't think it is will see another update.

I also have this on my LG G7 One. December 2018 is latest update. Also, weird software version number. It's Q910UM25a - the 25a seems like a non-standard build. I have no idea how to switch it to a normal build. My phone doesn't seem to have a recovery mode - I can get the sideways robot exclaimation mark screen, but hitting power and volume up restarts the phone, it doesn't take me to another menu where I can select anything.
