Bricked my phone, but not really. How do i fix it?

A

AC Question

So today I wanted to root my phone again. The first thing I did was go into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. Then the phone boots up and the setup starts. Now the problem is that, for some reason the keyboard is not showing up on the screen, this means I can't enter in my google account to finish the setup. I have tried resetting the phone again but that didn't help.
So to sum up, i just need to finish the setup to get into the phone but the keyboard is not working.

My phone is a Blu Life One X running Android 5.1

Thanks for your help!

Boot back into recovery and wipe the cache. If that doesn't fix it, you'll probably have to reflash the ROM. But if you go to Google Play with a web browser on a desktop or laptop, you can probably download some other keyboard to the phone (when the phone is booted up normally) to see if it's a major problem (like the ROM) or a minor one (like a bad keyboard app). If the downloaded keyboard works, use it until you get the phone working. (I'd try SwiftKey Keyboard first (it's always on my phones - I prefer it).
