[Q] Fake system specifications - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there
Few weeks ago, I finally got my chinese tablet. After seconds of using the default launcher, I tough that the hardware specifications can't be real.
About in System Settings shows the fake specs. If I use Droid Inspector or similar apps, the real specs are unveiled :crying: Except anTuTu shows the pre-saved wrong specs
Do someone know, which system file is responsible to show and store the hardware specifications? Is there a way to verify that?
Currently, i'm in fight with the seller, thats why I don't post screenshot for this moment...
Using Android 4.4.3, root available. Maybe search a spefic string with LogCat? :highfive:
thanks thanks :good:

[Q]

Hello everyone...
Today i saw galaxy s3 replica. It was almost 99% same as the real. It was android. The thing is only the play store was in chinese but i downloaded aptoide on that and installed many android apps which worked without any problem. I installed go launcher zedge application whatsapp viber skype everything worked fine and the price of that phone was $150 only. Even when i inserted my sim into that my GSM network sent me the setting of GPRS & MMS of Samsung Galaxy S3. In about phone it was written galaxy s3. Android 4. something...
I just want to ask one thing that can we install Samsung Stock Firmware on that ? So we can get rid off chinese play store? And some other chinese apps which are unable to delete. So it become like real s3 ?

I have a few questions about this:
1. Where did you see this?
2. Did it say anything about specs? It could have a terrible processor and such.

No you can't flash a Sammy firmware to that.
They have different hardware (I'm not talking about the looks).
And you could try installing the play store apk. ( might not work, you should try pushing it into system/app if that doesn't work, needs root to do this )
You will need to Root 1st to remove all the bloatware from the phone. ( don't ask me how to root, search around, try any universal rooting methods which might work and don't hold me responsible for whatever happens to your phone)
i suggest that you don't buy these Chinese phones, they might look attractive, but deep inside, they might have put all crap and non working stuff.
No support from either the manufacturer or devs here. Nobody to hear you when you're in trouble!
LIFE! IT'S WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT!
nice suggestion

Look at your screen, it'll definitely be the same size as an S3, but with a much lower resolution. Chinese devices, both phones and tablets usually have a max resolution of 800x480, compared to Galaxy S3's 1280x720. Compare your phone to a real S3, you'll see the huge clarity difference. Also 512 MB RAM instead of 2GB and a dual core processor instead of quad core. I'd say you got a bad deal. You can get branded, good quality Android phones with better specs for a little more price. Like the person above said, don't buy Chinese devices. They're ultimate crap.

[Q] Rooting Galaxy Note II clone

Hey everyone,
I came into possession of this chinese Android smartphone built to mimic the Samsung Galaxy Note II (it looks like a pretty decent rendition actually) and I wanted to see what could be done with it.
The device claims to be running Android 4.1.1 but it's a blatant lie as evidenced by the total lack of the Holo Theme and other telltale signs, unfortunately every single app both on device and on the desktop seems to be fooled by this, the closest I got to it spilling the beans was a "API Level 10" which would place it around Android 2.3 if I'm not mistaken. In fact, the diagnostics screen claims this to be MocorDroid2.3.5.
The phone itself calls itself GT-T7100, and ADB names it mt_gt_t7100, under Software Version I see MT6577-TC611-EN-2PIN-V04, I assume MT6577 refers to that one motherboard that seems to be found in many of these devices, and plugging it on the computer reveals its USB device name to be "Spreadtrum Phone", the vendor id is 0x1782
Using all these clues I was able to identify him as this little guy here
www (dot) szrming (dot) com (slash) en (slash) Products (slash) T7100 (dot) html (can't post links)
Which seems to be a variant of the much more popular N/H7100 where the jokers were like "Let's reduce the onboard RAM to 256MB" so yeah, pretty painful. It takes like two apps to slow this thing down to a crawl.
I wanted to maybe upgraded it to a newer version of Android or at least root it so I can get rid of some stock apps that are always running and eating away the limited RAM, so I tried looking around but none of the "one-click" rooting methods seem to work, not even those designed to work for that version of Android.
I have found that one guide that claims to work for all phones using the SC6820 processor but I kinda stopped there because I need to flash it and I'm not sure I can correctly identify the ROM since I'm not even 100% sure it's the T7100 I found there.
I'm posting this in the hopes that somebody has the same model or knows enough about ROMs to tell me if there's some kind of "generic" one that could work with this particular phone considering the chipset it's using
Thanks in advance

Identifying some phones

A brother of mine recently bought two Chinese iPhone 5 clones and Galaxy Note II ones. And I wanna see what's in those, what features do they exactly have, what software do they run and what hardware exactly are they. I tried to google this and I stumbled upon these forums, though I never got a solution that worked for me.
Is there any computer software I can while having each of those phones connected to my PC that use which might help acquiring that information? You guys mention SuperOneClick, but that does nothing in my case - none of the buttons work, no drivers get installed. Oh, I don't know if it matters, but I'm running Windows XP.
Many thanks in advance.
In most cases those Chinese clones don't use any of the mainstream phone os like android, IOS, WP8. They use other os such as bada or meego and put skins on the os so that they look like the mainstream os. The reason for this is coz of too much competition and low price phones in the Chinese market causing the production of low standard phones and tabs and phablets that somehow leak into other established markets... In some special and kinda rare cases those phones do come with stock android. In this case,The reason drivers don't install is because the manufacturers haven't released the drivers probably because the phone isn't widely known. Probably start searching for the manufacturer and ask for the info and drivers. And maybe, just maybe, they will give you the info. If it has the Google playstore download an app called android file info. It will give you a the info be it hardware or software including your IP address

Thank you for the reply.
Though the thing is, e.g. one of those phone that I have pretty much looks this one:
"Airphone i5 Smart Phone MTK6515 Android 2.3 OS IOS Menu Original Size i5 Wifi" (google that, turns out I can't yet post external links within my posts)
and as you can see on that site, they pretty much claim that it's Android based. Mine has 4 GiB though, or so it seems - when I connect it to my PC, it detects a FAT32 disk of that size.
So, how do I find out what those really are? Is there anything I can use on the menu to maybe see the real technical spec? There are many of those iPhone 5 clones on the internet, all of which claim they are MTKxxxx hardware inside. Should I trust those website? And what is that MTKxxxx? How do I find out which version (if any) mine is? How do I find out what's the screen resolution, CPU speed, and the RAM it really has?
Thanks in advance.
Mtkxx devices can be trusted. They just make phones that look like iPhone but are really just android. Since it is android go to the Google playstore and download an app called android system info. It will give you all those details... Believe me it does and doesn't require root

But how do I install it? This phone is a bit weird, for instance, when I try to watch a video on yt through its Youtube icon it gives me an error "format no supported". How can I even know if it's a real MTK, it just looks like one of those from those websites :\.
On a computer Google 'Google playstore ask download' download the apk. Then copy it to your SD card. Put the card into the phone. Using the file manager in the phone, browse to the apk on the SD card and click it to install. Then run the playstore and you are done.
Another option is using whatever Internet browser that is on the phone and Google the same thing and download it through the phone (don't worry about data charges the apk is quite small) once downloaded run it by clicking it and install it. The start up the Google playstore as usual.

And so copied the file on the phone (using the usb cable), still to no avail. It won't load. The phone doesn't even have a file browser 'per se', though I managed to find somehow which might resemble it via the 'search' function. My guess then is, that's not an Android at all? How can I get the technical spec now? :\
I'm uploading two attachments. First is the error that it shows when trying to load up that file you told me to upload, and the second one is the folders structure on this memory card (the one that has 4 GiB). Is any of this telling us anything? Thanks.

It doesn't say anything about Android at all. It claims it's a legit iPhone 5. Though obviously it ain't.
Is there anything else I can do to get to the spec?
Let me check on Google and see what I can find. But if it isn't android... It might be a bit hard to find out but I will try my best.

Maybe its off topic but if i were you i would throw out this sh*t and then i would buy galaxy s1 for example...they are really cheap now...after that you could root it and then flash miui rom...(these roms are very similiar to ios).
Also if they could somehow hack internal memory amount to show 64gb they could hack other hardware info so it may show for example snapdragon 800 while its chinese no name
Still, that does not solve the problem at all. If I wanted to throw those away, that is just sell them, I'd still need to know what it is that I'm selling. You can't run a successful businesses on a market that you know nothing about and neither you can successfully sell a product if you don't even know its technical spec. This whole thing is giving me a headache already :\.

I've seen these before. This phone basically is a sciphone with a iphone 5 design. It runs on Java not android.
Android MTK phones would have just the stock android phone (I.E. W008+)
Goophone I5 has stock android ontop of a skin and only runs on android 4 (There is a update for 4.1)
This however is Java ontop of a skin because of the font, and it looks like the sciphone os. The settings are identical to a sciphone too.
Just to add to this, all mediatek phones (Chinese clones) come pre-rooted, MTK6515 is really slow, It wouldn't even run angry birds. Also when you turn on your phone does it turn on with a android logo (like the w008) if so then there should be a test mode by holding volume up and power or volume down and power when the logo shows up. But I doubt it's android and wouldn't have this feature. Also to test if it's android, when you turned on your phone for the first time did you go through setup? If so you should have had added a google account (They come with the play store preinstalled but runs at a older version) ?
Thank you for your reply. It makes things more clear yet.

The answer for all this is: no. I've never stumbled upon the Android logo when using those, none of those tests would run and they have never asked me for google acc, neither there's anything on their menus where I could put any google acc name to. I simply assumed they were Android based phones, as all the iPhone clones that I had seen on the Internet were said to run on Android.
If they are 'sciphones', as you said and they run on Java, how do I get the technical spec? What I need will be the chipset name, memory information (RAM), screen resolution, WiFi standards it supports, etc. If I'm ever to get rid of them, knowing that is a must. I simply don't wanna cheat anyone, just state clearly what it is that I have to sell.

Well, I was developing for the w008. I couldn't get round to a ROM with no kernel sources available and the device was abandoned to hardware today. I cant really say how to get the datasets really.. All I know is that it could also be a clone of a "sciphone" and have a different dataset to that.
Just a suggestion if it runs on java, it can run java apps meaning you could find a java app for system information. Not sure if there's one out but it would be worth a try. But then again I think it reads the settings of a file (like a bulid.prop) so then again it would give the same information as settings.
Don't know what to say really.

Hi,
This product description sounds familiar. The Chinese manufacturer's product description is usually very vague and ambigious, for example, a "tablet" (computer) can be described as a "pill" (computer) because the Chinese word is the same for tablet and pill (medicine-wise). So, here is how I would interprete the product description:
Airphone i5 Smart Phone MTK6515 Android 2.3 OS IOS Menu Original Size i5 Wifi"
Airphone i5 - Airphone, the brand and i5, the model
Smart Phone - usually means it comes with a large touch-screen (not a feature phone)
MTK6515 - the processor
Android 2.3 OS IOS Menu - it has some menus that looks like Android 2.3 and some menus that look like IOS
Original Size i5 - the phone hardware has the same form-factor as i5.
Wifi - comes with addditional Wifi connectivity (if without the word "Wifi" expect no Wifi)
I am sure if we were to scour the Chinese websites we will find many more such (seemingly deceiving) descriptions.

[Q] Mistaken or Had? MTK6577

Any and All,
I recently purchased an Android Note II at a market. I knew the phone was from "overseas". The box shows 5.5" QHD, Quad Core CPU 1gig ram etc.
Later after using the phone I noticed that it was not working as expected. Using some play store apps, the hardware reads dual core cpu 512megs of ram. The chipset is the MTK6577.
Is it possible I got a phone with incorrect firmware for the model or did I get ripped off? The MTK6577 seems to be popular and used in many phones. Could someone have mistakenly flashed a MTK6589 with the MTK6577 and have a result of a working but half as powerful phone?
Is there a way to tell with absolute certainty what my phone is? The IMEI Numbers are correct and shows MODEL S7100.
Thanks very much in advance. I know I am probably grasping but if you don't ask...
jason
you got tricked on this market. you can never be sure to get what you was buying, all those boxes are printed with wrong informations. surely you got a mt6577 no mt6589, sorry. to gain iformations of your device, make a screenshot of your -> settings -> about device tab and post it here.

There are many of these "overseas" versions of the Samsung Note II look-alikes. They come in various configurations, CPUs in the MTK65xx series, 1 GB or 512 MB RAM, and so on.
If you bought it from an on-line seller and it is not as described, you could complain and return / get refund, or compensated for the shortcomings.
But if you bought it from a brick-and-mortar shop, then you should return it and get an exchange or refund. I'm sure there are ways to seek legal recourse through the consumer protection organizations.
the IMEI's of chinese devices are not what they meant to be. for example, my device shows IMEI of motorola Razr if i check it online.

[Q] Lenovo P780s

Hi Folks,
I have recently come accros this phone model on aliexpress.
Unlike Lenovo p780 on this forum, it has 4.7" screen and quad or octa core MTK CPU, either MTK6589 or MTK6592.
Is this the official Lenovo phone or some "dodgy" copy, as in Antutu, it shows manufacturer as "ALPS"? Can somebody shed some more light please?
Regards and Thanks,
Darko

Seems to me after a long study that this p780 is for internal market of China.
I don saw anything on international sites.
And by the way this phone got an accumulator of 2200mA or 2500mA.
There are screenshots on Aliexpress offers, that confirms the specification (chip, 2GB RAM, gpu, etc). If the phone is actually a dodgy copy it means that these screenshots are fake as well?

From what I have discovered , when installing a benchmarking application they have modified Package Access Helper com.android.defcontainer to replace the apk with modified one from /system/etc/.tempxxx with fake cpu information.
From Logcat
12:33:59.733 Warning asset 2578 AssetManager-->addDefaultAssets CIP path not exsit!
12:33:59.733 Warning asset 2578 Asset path /system/etc/.tempcpuz is neither a directory nor file (type=1).

12:33:59.733 Warning ActivityManager 549 No content provider found for permission revoke: file:///system/etc/.tempcpuz
With root I have disabled these files , and was able to install the real apk by copying it to /data/app
Without root you have to decompile and recompile apk with another package name ( eg. from com.cpuid.cpu_z to com.cpuid.cpu_z2)
I attach renamed cpuz if anyone wants it.
When the internal package name is changed , It can be installed as it doesnt identify it as one that it wants to replace.
If any developers want these files for investigation , I will upload them.
I hope this info helps others not to get ripped off from those suppliers selling these phones.
I believe that we need to find some place to put this as a warning for people looking to buy phones like this.
I was almost cought out by this con, and thankfully for people here on the forum, they saved me a few 100 dollars.

I totally agree with you , and that is one of the reasons I posted details about it.
People who have been scammed should at least leave negative reviews for there orders,and dispute with those where they purchased the phone.
Be advised that the model named "P780w" is also a scam, and if you can change the title of this thread,
Hi.
I bought one P780c from Aliexpress and it is obviously a fake copy. Antutu say MTK6592 an 8 cores, but
MTK tools say MTK6582 and 4 cores, and hardware is fake. Also it was annonced with android 4.4, but has 4.2.
I had in mind it could be a fake, but I made a try.
It cost was only around $100, so not big loss..
The phone works ok, but I have not got the GPS working, also the screen seems to have some problems when input text, not always get the correct letter.
I am looking for a new phone with 4G LTE band and on Aliexpress there are Lenovo A808 with 5.5" screen and N905 with 5" screen for sale. How can we be sure they are originals and not fakes ? From the price ? They cost around $100-120 with free shipping.
I would like to try one, but if it is fakes also, I have several phones with MTK6582 quad cores.

What kind of Lenovo it is ? What is written on the box ?
custom ROM V603
it's a fake from China. Phone no central button as Samsung and Lenovo has none. On the box are the only Chinese signs and information for your stated V603 ... it should be MTK 6572
