I may be wrong but as far as I know the only part of your phone that is even similar to a Samsung s2 is the size and shape. The internals will be completely different and as such an s2 ROM won't work.
I had a Chinese tablet that did a similar thing, after trying several key combos at power up, trying to get to some sort of recovery it just booted, maybe pure luck but worth a go. Other than that, assuming you've done a factory reset already, Google my be your only friend. These clones often have "siblings" whose ROMs will work. Good luck.

Its not an S2, so no, software here wont work. Wrong phone, wrong software, wrong thread.
Google is your friend
Good luck!

Get a refund.

If he doesn't know which ROM to install why did you let him? Only a JTAG repair would help since you don't have warranty too.

Why on earth have you created this topic when we already have plenty of this 100% exact same subject????
All you're doing is adding to the flood on needless topics that plague this forum. You have no need to simply clone topics for fresh replies that are same answers that have already been given before.

You cant just order Jtag from ebay. Jtag is made with RiffBox, which a very expensive piece of hardware. You also need some other skills and generally, Jtag is used only by professionals who know what they're doing.
What you need to find is a Jtag repair shop in your area. Jtag repair is much cheaper than getting a new motherboard.

ROM flashing is not something to joke around. Flashing a ROM without knowing what ROM is it could lead to the bricking of device. I bet your brother don't even know whether that ROM is compatible with the S2 model.
Could it be that he flashed a non-G version of ROM to a i9100G, or vice versa that leads to this condition?
Thread closed
Hopefully you can fix it without replacing the motherboard. No need for another thread on the subject.

[Q] Is there a rom for S4 I9500 Clone HDC MTK6577 dual core ?

I know there are custom Roms Floating around for the quad core S4 Clones with a different chipset and Roms for multiple MTK6577 devices with other names and specs but does anyone know if there is a Custom Rom out flashable for the S4 I9500 dual core clone?This phone is painful to try to use.It freezes up constantly and drains battery like crazy.Also I can't get Google contacts to sync which I depend on for my contacts list,apparently there is some other contacts app loaded on this thing and I'm not sure what files control Google contacts otherwise I would just pull them out of one of my Sammy phones.I am rooted,CMW is installed and I fixed GPS(that finally works).As it sits,this phone cannot even be used because of all the problems.If someone has a link to a CMW flashable Rom for this specific phone please link me to it.Thanks
i would like to know this too , thanks
I have already tried to port like 3 different mtk6577 roms including 1 meant specifically for a mtk6577 dual core phone and I got nowhere. I switched out and removed all the files in the guides for these mtk devices and it didn't work.

I have spent hours combing through that thread and have even tried flashing fluffys rom. I will look more there.There is support for the mtk6589 chipset on many clones but beyond a link to the original factory rom zip for my particular clone(which I downloaded already). I can't find anything anywhere even on needrom. Thanks for the link though and for replying to me.

I think it was needrom.com .There are many roms there but you have to find the ones for hdc mtk6577 i9300 S4 clones dual core processor if you have the same piece of crap phone.You will get no help with this phone.Noone is willing to help with it.Everything you learn you will have to learn from your own research. I haven't messed with this phone in months.It's pretty much a lost cause even though I have it running ok now.There is no NFC no matter what the box says,battery life is non-existent(unless you buy an OEM S4 i9300 battery) and the WIFI is weak at best.You can however get GPS working correctly if you research it.It is really just an inferior device.I bought it on accident I got scammed buying a Samsung S4.I never would of wasted my money on this P.O.S. Good luck

same here, I got scammed too, I tried to change the Rom hoping that it would improve the battery life, but no matter which mt6577 based Rom I install, none of them can drive the LCD, therefore I have no picture on the screen, all I have is some dots, but the phone works, I get phone calls and all, that's why I was asking, which one did you get, bc after trying more than 6 Roms I still can't find one that can drive the LCD.

I have the original rom still on mine. I tried several and none of them worked. I even tried building my own. I froze all the apps I could and changed the launcher to nova. In your case I'm afraid it's probably not the rom causing the lcd to not work. My guess is your lcd either **** the bed or if you are lucky maybe just the ribbon connecting the lcd to the motherboard inside came dislodged somehow. (highly unlikely but possible)

Hi technut,
I can definitely confirm these battery issues and the WLAN having a low range (to put it mildly). Ok... some bluetooth problems as well...
Anyway I'm using this phone for a second SIM.
Even it sounds like you've stopped investigating about this phone: did you stumble on any news?
Is it really possible to install a ClockworkRecovery to that particular HDC 9500 MTK6577 Dual core phone without causing a brick?
(E.g. with MTK Droid Root & Tools?)
Best regards,
Pete

While I'm not the expert, I think any post with [MT65xx] in the beginning will apply to your phone. For example, this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490
BTW, nice phone! Looks like the real S4, just that the S4 I've seen was black.

Does any of the above look remotely familiar to your own device?
My phone is bricked, but research suggests that I might be able to build a new ROM based on the "system/" of a working device, using Android Kitchen. I'm told that entering the following code into the Terminal Emulator on a working device, creates a dump of the "system/" on the SD card, which can then be used to build the custom ROM in Android Kitchen:
Code:
tar -c system/* >> sdcard/system.tar
If you give this a go, and succeed in Android Kitchen, I'd be really grateful if you could let me know, and perhaps share the ROM? At the moment finding a copy of the stock ROM looks to be my only solution at this point!
TIA

Ok, not to worry. Unfortunately I can't give you the link to the website. The original advert said that it had an 8MP camera, however it only has 4.9MP! I challenged the seller on this, and it looks as though they have stopped advertising the phone. I bought it through Amazon and the seller was 'Active Tek' based in China. I would avoid using this seller as they clearly missold the phone to me.
hi could you help me with the s4 clone I've tried it to load an images which is not so successful but this is also happening to my regret my backup is gone great if you had what

i have the same phone. but dont know how to root it. visit: samclone.blogspot.com
Hi, I have got exactly the same device as you have. I got the parcel yesterday; it had an app pre-installed called antutu, that antutu thingy says that the device has got arm v7 CPU named universal 5410, clocked at 1.7 gigs.
Ram of about 2 gigs and internal storage of 16 GB. However today I installed an app named CPU identifier that showed that its CPU was mt6572, mali400 GPU and to a heartbreaking surprise, only 512 mb of ram. Please tell me that this CPU identifier is crap and I have got a whole 2 gigs of ram. One more thing is that device is stunningly fast and efficient in handling big apps.
I also found some flaws; smart pause and smart scroll (eye sensor) only worked once or twice; GPS never worked; hand flip only works on one side. May be these issues can be resolved by installing a custom ROM.

[Q] Which is it I9300 or T999

I really hope someone can help. I have been reading XDA for a few years and had 1 thread and always read before asking. I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 from Amazon. I never had any problems with there service. I am from the US and am overseas for the next year. I had someone bring the phone to me. I decided to root my phone thinking it was an i9300 because that whats written on the back and also what it said inside the phone (settings-about phone).
GT-I9300
Android v 4.1.1
Firmware Build ID JRO03L
Firmware Build PDA I9300ZSEMC
Firmware Region TGY
When I first plugged in the usb to my laptop I noticed that it was trying to install T999 drivers I was confused for a moment until it installed I9300 drivers. I then used CF-auto root , which to my surprise didn't work. So I tried Cf auto Root for T999 and again I was surprised...it worked. I then installed a app called CPU-identifier from google play store. I started it up and again to my surprise it said that my phone had S4 snapdragon 1.5 dual core, 2GB RAM inside - this was 3 days ago. Last night I had the S3 plugged in and was pasting Hyperdrive Rom to my SD card and I was about to flash. I rebooted my phone to TWRP 2.5( I had installed that one ) I was in and out of there multiple time for the past few days with no FC's. My phone just cut off... I retried to boot it and nothing. Tried download mode(volume down,menu and power) tried recovery (volume up, menu and power). When I plug it in without battery the red light comes on for a couple of minutes. Also when I plug it to my laptop it makes the reading noise but does not actually read anything. I tried reinstalling the drivers a few times.
I just don't understand why and also I can't figure out why it says it is an i9300 but has the S4 snapdragon processor. By the way even An-Tu-Tu say that it has S4 snapdragon inside. My 2 questions are 1) Is it possible to fix this? 2) Is it possible to have an I9300 with the S4 processor inside? Being that I'm 8000 miles from America I have no way of taking it back. Any help would be appreciated. I've also read about "sudden death" is this a possibility? Sorry for the long thread, just wanted to give all information.

I rebooted my phone to TWRP 2.5( I had installed that one ) I was in and out of there multiple time for the past few days with no FC's. My phone just cut off... I retried to boot it and nothing. Tried download mode(volume down,menu and power) tried recovery (volume up, menu and power). When I plug it in without battery the red light comes on for a couple of minutes. Also when I plug it to my laptop it makes the reading noise but does not actually read anything. I tried reinstalling the drivers a few times.
I just don't understand why and also I can't figure out why it says it is an i9300 but has the S4 snapdragon processor. By the way even An-Tu-Tu say that it has S4 snapdragon inside. My 2 questions are 1) Is it possible to fix this? 2) Is it possible to have an I9300 with the S4 processor inside? Being that I'm 8000 miles from America I have no way of taking it back. Any help would be appreciated. I've also read about "sudden death" is this a possibility? Sorry for the long thread, just wanted to give all information.

By the description you are giving that ur s3 has a snapdragon s4 processor ,a 2 gb ram it has to be a north american version(as u specified T999) because the int s3(i9300) has an 1.4ghz quad core processor with 1gb of ram so basically you cannot have an i9300 with a snapdragon s4 processor. i think it is the software as u say it shows i9300 in the settings but the CF-Auto root worked for T999. This is a very strange case! But if it is the hardware then u definitely cannot fix it (That is you cannot change the processor or the ram).But anyways it has to be the software ...ill try finding for similar cases and then leave some links for u to check .

Thanks for your quick response and any help would be great. I forgot to mention that in both cases where I tried to boot into download mode and recovery didn't work. I now think my phone may be bricked because when i plug it into PC it tries to install (QHSUSB_DLOAD). I googled it and they stated that when it does this it is bricked. I have no way to send to America to fix it. I just don't understand how that it is possible to get European phone with SGH T999 hardware-software.... very strange.
Another thing...if I can get odin to recognize it which firmware do I install, I9300 or T999? I believe that I need T999 because both An-Tu-Tu and CPU Identifier Id both came back with Qualcomm MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 Adreno 225. Thank for your time
Another quick question if I just successfully unbricked my fully bricked phone using debicked SGH t999 img file does that mean my firmware should be t999? Look at the following screen shots 2 were taken before the brick and 2 were taken a few minutes age. Any other answers for the confused Galaxy I own? Is this a normal thing a European I9300 with a T999 hardware and I9300 software? Someone please explain what to do now in Odin. Do I need to flash what my setting say? And if I do flash for I9300 won't it brick because of the CPU being Qualcomm Snapdragon S4? HELP ME! This has been driving me nuts....

I spent the last 18 hrs reading XDA and they have nothing to answer my question. That's why I'm asking on this thread. I rooted all my phones using XDA and have never bricked anything until now. Had one other thread til now. If you can't answer my question...you don't need to respond. I have read almost everything on I9300 and T999 didn't find no answers. If you can help I would love it if you can answer my question about what hardware to use now. Sense this thead I unbricked my phone. I hope you can help

You asked what is that and where shown a picture of what it is . What the f wrong with that .
I did ask the question for a very significant reason re the actual phone model and a previous similar post .
But after your post forget it you can go on the ignore list .

You asked what a pull out aerial is. The picture shows what a pull out aerial is. Ask a question, get an answer. That's how it works. Don't start getting cheeky now.
You have NOT got an i9300 as your hardware differs, ergo we cannot help.

put me on you ignore list ...you didn't help anyway. All you had to say was yes use the I9300 firmware or yes use the T999 firmware. Instead you wasted around 60 words and didn't help at all.

I wasn't getting cheeky, I'm frustrated... but i guess you finally answered me in the end. This whole thing could have been resolved 3 or 4 posts back. Thanks

Jje wanted to give you the answer "it's not an i9300, its xxxxxxx" but as he didn't get an answer about the aerial, he gave up on getting you the full answer. So it's been left as a half answer.

Pls Help
I'm facing the same problem i.e. settings>about device> says GT-I9300 while I go into download mode it says SGH-T999. All I want to confirm now is this:-
1) Can I root it using methods mentioned in xda forums of Galaxy S3 T-mobile i.e. here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-t-mobile ?
2)Can I install this ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2176768 ?
EDIT : I rooted the phone using link 1, Now should I go for the roms mentioned in T-mobile S3 forum? Should I install the modem also?

I had a clone s4 some time ago called No1 S6, after some time its internal sd card got broken... i do not recommend it to root and flash custom rom to that phones.
it had an mtk6582 which was a midrange SoC while that now its one of the crappiest chipsets..
however, clone mediatek phones do not have a "download mode", so odin does not work as well
You need to get the real name of the phone, i think there was a youtuber who reviewed a clone galaxy a9 his youtubechannel name was "mayiandjay" you could contact him via email for the devices name.
Then search on needrom.com for a rom for that phone and flash it via SP flashtool. When flashing a rom to a mtk phone with spflashtool the phone just needs to be turned off, no need to get into any mode ;
