The Americas variant of BLU Win HD LTE (X150q) is now supported by Windows Device Recovery Tool. See this meta-thread for details: http://forums.windowscentral.com/ge...-recovery-tool-expanded-covers-more-oems.html


Confirmation comes in from gmincca that the ROM in talked about in this thread is for X150e (World or Euro variant) Using it on an X150q Americas variant will most likely bork your radio and leave you unable to access SIM.

OP updated.

I have requested the links from the OP to evaluate what we have here.

As a device saving measure this might be worthwhile and I think it bears investigation.

I'll report back. So far the PDF looks pretty clear as a direction set. The zips are scanning clean. I'll scan again after extraction.

FWIW I've seen the ROM posted elsewhere on the net, though I don't have a link ATM.

Waiting on the ROM. Malware Bytes sees 2 PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs) in the ffu folder after extraction. NOT malware, just something to be cautious about. It is rather expected given that ffu will alter your registry from cmd. The files associations were of a certificate nature. I expect it is all good.

Finally Files are uploaded please check FFU image is split into 8 parts due to upload failing multiple times and had to restart from scratch.

Just enter all of this in the browser. I can't post links :/
This look's interesting as well. It's been available for quite some time now... It uses Qualcomm flash instead of flashffu.
I have never tested it, but I did download it just in case. However, I only have a mac. So I cannot tell you if this contains malware or not. Use at your own risk.

This does not work, and fails at flasing

Hum interesting. Thanks a lot for providing the firmware by the way

Re: Finally BLU WIN HD LTE Factory Restore Image

Downloading the 8 parts of the ROM now. It will take me awhile and then I'll stitch them back together.

Re: Finally BLU WIN HD LTE Factory Restore Image

It all looks good. I've not flashed my phone, but would certainly try this if I got borked somehow.

Thanks to kashifsayad for helping us all out.

I am under the impression that there is a device check at the door now and it will not let you pass if there is no recovery image in WPRT for your device.

I believe so, I couldn't get anything regarding, insider fast or slow, multiple checks. so left the insider program. Just waiting on official.

Yes, I tried to get insider build on my BLU Win HD LTE but didn't succeed.
