R1 HD Amazon Bootloader unlock method

at the moment I can not do anything else? just wait?

It's not possible. It is not that no one wants to do it, it's because Blu has modified the ROMs to disable SP Flash Tools and they have fixed all known exploits. Unless some previously unknown exploit is discovered - NOT likely - the phone can no longer be rooted.

And now that the phone is no longer being manufactured and the Blu-specific source code needed to run other ROMs, like Lineage, with all hardware working is not available - there is little to no developer interest in this phone. Sorry - you either bought it too late or updated it past the point that it could be rooted. I do not know if any of the current line of Amazon ad-supported phones can be rooted. They are not intended to be because Amazon loses money on each one that has the ads disabled.

Ok I understand, I did not know about that. It's true, I should not update. Thank you very much for your great help. I thank you my friend

Me again, there will be no way to make a downgrade? I just want to make sure there's nothing to do
thank you very much

No, unfortunately not. You could downgrade the Marshmallow ROM to an earlier version but you can not downgrade the bootloader which will still be locked and not rootable. Why? Because when you updated your phone, you installed a newer bootloader in which Blu has disabled the tools and fixed the exploits that previously made it possible to replace or downgrade the bootloader.

Blu screwed up by not properly securing the earlier versions of the phone allowing some of the clever people here to root it, but Blu patched all those holes in the recent updates - no doubt due to pressure from Amazon. The $60 rootable phone is now history.

R1 plus bootloader unlock

I recently bought the r1 plus, does this work on it too? It's got the MT6737.

The plus was a let down for me. Did not get it to unlock bootloader, so then I did not get root either.

If you buy one of these devices DO NOT Connect them to any network or install a SIM in them until you have done the DirtyCow thing.

If you are within the refund Window, contact Amazon, claim the device is defective, request an exchange or refund.
