Hi guys my dad just bought me a phone and I've been researching and it appears to be a fake. It's model number is is still gt i9300. I saw a previous thread and someone had the exact same one and only he was able to root and get it to the actual stock rom of the real gs3. There must be a way to do this but I need someone to give me a link to a specific tutorial to do this. Someone please reply and and tell me what I can do. I'm still a noon at this stuff so try to explain everything in depth.. Thanks!
Wrong section dude. As you say its a fake, i don't know if even on the Q&A section you will get an answer, but try posting there.

If the hardware is different then your more liable to brick your device, i'm afraid youre going to get very little help if thats the case.
Also, this is the development section, you don't ask questions in it.

I created a thread so someone could help not tell me to read. If that was the case I wouldnt of made this thread. I never done this before and I heard about this a couole weeks ago. Ask me anything about car audio n ill give u an answer. This perticular topic... Its like reading chinese so if someone could actually help me. My streak is running 2.2

Try this article for modding basics.
No offense - if you don't understand it then you shouldn't be trying to mod your phone.
Here, let me handle this one:

Greetings!
I am hoping to get some assistance on my problem with my gs2.
My gs2 is from Korea. it is an m250k version running gingerbread (rooted). My question is, have you guys tried updating it to a custom ics rom? I am really hoping to go through but I am hesitant because I have read a lot of people having bricked their devices.
Where would be the best place for me to start? Any advice or direction would be greatly appreciated.

You might get more help if you post your question in the Q&A section and not General post.
If a phone rings and it's not an Android, does anyone care?

I tried. I tried looking for answers there for hours. But there's just so many information there that has had me confused. I can't find a direct answer.
What I want to know is how I can convert my m250k to i9100. then apply an ICS.
I already have my phone rooted. I just don't know what to download next and how to apply it exactly.
Thank you all.
Me Too. After so many hours of searching, I want a guide to convert this koreon into i9100
I really need some help. I have read through most of the guides, and watched YouTube videos, but there is something I am missing or just not understanding. Does anyone have a step-by-step instruction guide for how to install a custom ROM to get my Vibrant from 2.3.6 to Android 4.4? So far, all I have succeeded in doing is bricking a phone, which fortunately, Samsung repaired for me. ANY help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm not 100%, but I don't believe you have a Samsung Vibrant. The Samsung Vibrant never received an official 2.3.6 update and even had you installed a custom 2.3.6 ROM I'm not too sure Samsung would repair a rooted/hacked phone (although you could have gotten lucky). What exactly is your phone's model number? If it's not "T959" (and instead is "T959V" or "I9000M", "I9000B", "I9000T", "I9000", etc.) it could explain why your phone bricked the last time you attempted to install a custom rom. If it is "T959" then let me know and I'll see if I can whip you up a guide. :good:
Wow, that is incredibly kind of you!!!:good:
My model number is SGH-T959V, Firmware version 2.3.6, Baseband T959VUVKJ6. I have ODIN, Heimdall, superoneclick, and CyanFox. Just don't know how to make them all work together.
Thank you again!
Ahh, I thought so.. Although the model number is similar to the Vibrant (SGH-T959), your device's model number is SGH-T959V, meaning the device in your possession is not a Vibrant. To be exact, your device is the Galaxy S 4G which has its own dedicated forum here. Vibrant ROMs won't work properly on your device, nor would Galaxy S 4G ROMs work properly on the Vibrant. Sorry bud. From what I see it doesn't appear that the GS4G has CyanFox available for it, however, it does appear to have quite a few other KitKat ROMs for you to tinker with, all of which can be found here.
Lastly, it may not hurt to repost your question here. By posting it in the GS4G forum I'm sure you'll get the help you're looking for.
I figured I would visit you here in the T-Mobile S5 forum since you guys would definitely know more about this particular issue than I do. Like the title states, I'm wondering if you know of anyone in your forum flashing a T-Mobile ROM to a Verizon SM-G900V, and if so which would be a good choice of ROM to do it? And which route should I take as for flashing firmware with Odin, or if any of the Verizon firmwares are compatible with your ROM's, and I wouldn't need to flash a T-Mobile firmware at all. I looked and I can't seem to find where anyone has posted about this. Theoretically it should be able to work with the right combination. I'm definitely not new at doing this stuff but this is a whole new ball game for me. I wouldn't know where to begin at flashing a T-Mobile ROM to this phone, being that I have to work within the parameters of the stupid locked bootloader. Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance.
Edit: I just realized I posted this in the wrong area I think. I meant to post it in the Q&A forum. Sorry about that. I guess I am too tired to do this right now and should've waited until the morning. Lol

Thank you. Again, I'm sorry about that. It wasn't until I went back looking for my post, that I realized I posted this in the wrong forum.
I have an S3 I9300 which im trying to root. But it just keeps getting bricked.
I have used CF-Root for the international version but im not sure what the problem is anymore.
I am fairly new to android development so I apologies if I missed a thread with a similar topic.
Can someone please help me??
Note: I have searched this forum and the threads giving solutions dont work for me! I have the stock ROM so I just keep bricking and unbricking it all day long trying different things.
It worked now.! Can an admin please delete this post?
Sorry to bother ya'll
