BLU Life One X2: Broken phone, can it be fixed?

Mon, 03 Sep 2018 22:50:36 -0700

It has possible water damage and took some impact. Phone screen will not light up at all, but is not broken (great screen protector). There might be a hole in the battery and it was smoking last night. Definitely smell chemicals. Tried plugging it in, and would only vibrate consistently, but not exactly turn on. Can this be fixed? Sorry for horrible picture, working off horrible tablet.

BLU Life One X2: How do I stop ad notifications from "Android Tools"?

Thu, 15 Mar 2018 10:43:08 -0700

Recently, Blu has begun using the app "Android Tools" to send me notifications that are just ads. This just started a week ago and I've had an X2 for over a year. Is there a direct way in settings to block this, or is there another app I can install to stop this? I'm open to ideas.

BLU Life One X2: BLU Life One x2 won't turn on

Fri, 27 Oct 2023 21:54:20 -0700

I've tried different chargers/cables/PC/power bank, I've also got a new replacement battery.

It won't power on, black screen is all I got. Pressing Power for 10s or Vol Down+Power or Vol Up+Down+Power didn't bring anything to the screen.

While connected to a power source, the red LED light flashes every second. No other response at all.

Someone please help!

BLU Life One X2: Is there any way to fix my Home Button? I need Help! :-(

Wed, 17 Apr 2019 13:45:55 -0700

Nothing happens when I press the Home Button. I have tried apps…and I have tried the hovering “Home Button” feature in Accessibility, but those both mess up my phone. I can’t seem to find a way of fixing it. It’s really a hassle. I never really knew how much I used it until it quit working. :-( Are replacement buttons available? If so…where? Thanks!

BLU Life One X2: Why does my phone highlight the top possible selection?

Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:49:07 -0700

Whenever I'm in most or any app or on the home screen, the first selection sometimes becomes highlighted and prevents me from selecting it or anything else. For example, when going to the Google Play Store, the triple lines selects itself and shows my Google account side menu and then highlights my email drop-down box. When trying to escape and use the search bar, it selects the back arrow (on the top of the screen) and the process starts again! Another example is when on the home screen. The top left folder gets a gray box around it. Anyone have any idea what's causing this malfunction?

BLU Life One X2: Why is my phone not turning on after charging it to 100%?

Sun, 28 Oct 2018 16:58:32 -0700

So for some reason, my phone was being dumb and it thought that the power off button was the volume down button?? Though the volume down button turned the volume down, and volume up turned volume up, but the power button also turned the volume down. So I obviously couldn’t power it off with the power button, and it was already at 10%. So I thought, “Okay well last time I accidentally let it die, it restarted itself, so I’ll just do that.” So that’s exactly what I did. Let it charge to 100% for about an hour, and here I am trying to turn it on, and the phone will not come on at ALL. When I plug it in, the battery thing shows up with it being full and the 100% on top of it, but again, I try turning it on… nothing. Just a black screen. Help????

BLU Life One X2: Why doesn't my camera save photos and not take video anymore?

Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:46:18 -0700

I have had it set to use SD Card as storage and it's worked in the past but now it won't let me take photos or video. Anyone have an idea of why? I also moved some other files (2 gifs and a png) moved to that folder once before, but now it won't let me delete or move them no matter what file manager app I use. Could those have caused it?

I set up the SD Card to be used as external storage instead of extra internal storage so I could move files from my phone to other things like my computer and flashdrive. Would this have something to do with this?

BLU Life One X2: Why is my phone volume lowering and raising?

Sat, 02 Jun 2018 08:09:23 -0700

My brothers phone volume has been lowering from the volume he has it set at for 5 seconds to a minute then raises back up. Other times it cuts out completely for a little bit. This happens with Bluetooth, wired headphones and the built in speaker. Because it’s happening with everything, would that be a software issue? I can’t figure out what could be causing this.
