Hello everyone,
I opened this thread at BLU VIVO 5 Q&A, can you help me?
Im several days trying root my new BLU VIVO 5 MINI but I keep without sucess.
Here I put every method tried
https://forum.xda-developers.com/vivo-5/help/help-root-properly-blu-vivo-5-mini-im-t3687511
Thank you ,so far.
Hi, I just got my Blu Vivo 8 yesterday and I noticed that it had "com.gionee.filemanager" as the default system installed file manager. After a bit of web searching I noticed that Gionee was actually a phone company and one of its models looks exactly like the Blu Vivo 8, namely the A1, and has all the same specs with the exception of the cellular bands.
I'm fairly certain this is the same phone, with minor hardware changes for bands. Does this mean that things such as rooting for the Gionee A1 will work on the Blu Vivo 8?
Also it doesn't seem like there's a subforum for the Blu Vivo 8 while there is one for the Blu Vivo 8L.

Well that's great to hear. Unfortunately I sent my Blu Vivo 8 back as it was defective, and therefore cannot test this, but I'm sure someone will find this information useful.
Directly flash Blu Vivo 8 firmware to Gionee A1.

Follow Step
Unmark - preloader
first flash - userdata, system, boot, logo flash complete then
Second flash - recovery, md (all file), ik (all file)
then Start device.
Are you positive that gionee a1 stock will flash on vivo 8 ? Because i tried flashing it too many times ? . Im guessing bootloader cant be unlocked with fastboot commands . Seems to be locked down to me. I even tried using magisk patched boot from my stock and kept getting error status insufferable buffer from sp flash tool. And yes i have all kinds of versions of this tool. Basicaly got the tool flashing stock rom by theses steps below. "once drivers and stuff like that installed correctly"
*There should be only 2 drivers that will show back up after you connect the device, the preloader vcom which is first connection available without holding any buttons, and then Mediatek USB Port which is first connection available when holding the volume key(s), the USB mediatek port one is the connection needed to actually flash or read the entire rom, the preloader connection will only read/write in the preloader area and a small bit after before giving a BROM error.*
Commented by "+Steve Baughcum"
By Blu development team google +
If it wasn't for him i wouldn't know what i would of done lol i couldnt ever get the device to pass 100%DA red bar..
So basicaly i can flash stock rom of vivo 8 and get a read back thru tool. But cant flash patched boot " magisk" or gionee rom without it sayin error insufficient buffer

What of custom ROMs for Blue vivo? Will they work on Gionee A1? My device is currently unstable, frequently restarting and therefore unusable. Can I use the custom rom of Blue vivo for my Gionee A1?

I searched for weeks and found none that can root my phone. I really tried and it seems rather impossible to root but the only opportunity I saw is that I need a boot.img of my phone and use magisk to root. I can't find or don't know how to extract the boot.img from the phone
Please help me root I've been wanting to root this phone since I bought it [emoji853][emoji853][emoji853]. Just give me a boot.img of this phone and I'll do the rest.... Thanks
