seems you have quite an old version of cyanogenmod, flash the latest milestone or nightly whatever you like. Reagarding no play store, you might not have any gapps (google apps) which you will need to flash to get, then you will have the playstore
if you're unsure of anything i said just say so

[SOLVED] Play Store New Feature?

Hi guys...I'm from the GT-I9100G forum......I'm running the latest cm9 on my phone...
Ok, back to my topic...When updating apps, it only downloads for a few percent as shown in Play Store...

}
But in my notifications drawer, it fills up very fast and the update is completed in a short while...faster then expected...but my apps still get updated magically!
It has been like this for many times...tried searching butI don't know what to search for...lol...so anyone else aware about this? My hypothesis is that Play Store only downloads the necessary files to 'patch' the existing apks...Is this possible?
Yes, you are right, actually. The Play Store now only downloads new content for each app, instead of downloading the entire app over again. Makes sense, especially for larger apps, like Death Rally, which is a 50MB initial download. VERY useful update for people who spend a lot of time on their mobile networks (not everybody has 4G or 4G LTE service available, or phones with those capabilities).
I noticed this behavior on my phone, and coincidentally read it online the next day on a random news post.
Wow...great feature......still remember the title of the news?kinda interested...

I worder with version of SGS2 i have for real? because i would like to change ROM or probably soon SGS2 will get upgrade to Android 4.2.2 and i do not want to brick/damge my phone.
Thx for any answers in advice.
===============
If this topis is posted in wrong section , admin plese move to proper one insted of remove it.
You've got the right idea in downloading some apps to see if you've got the real deal. Now download antutu & quadrant (both benchmarking apps) & run a benchmark on each. Post the results.
You can also take a few photos with the rear camera and see what the quality is like.
Also, post a photo of the back of your phone without the battery cover & battery. Make sure to cover up your imei.

[Q] Issue with SGS3 I9300 - which ROM?

Hello everyone,
my cousing bought a chinese I9300 but he wanted to change ROM because the current one doesn't work well and he has lots of problems with the signal, sms, wifi... We're from Italy if that matters.
Below you can see the screenshots captured from an Antutu report so you can see what's inside this baby :good:
I'd like to know if there's any ROM I can install to replace the running one and see if it can work better.
Thank you all in advance

The phone is not a SGS3 I9300 its some fake clone chinese job .
As posted nothing for that phone on this forum we cannot advise .
I hate to say this to you..
But that does not looks like a real S3 I9300.
From the screen shots I can see that the screen resolution is not correct and neither is the standard DPI.
So I don't think you can install any of the ROMS that are available in this section of the forum.
I think your cousin bought a knock-off that looks almost the same.
Unless you can figure out what phone it really is you are out of luck I'm afraid...
Yeah I thought that too as I saw the report.
So you think that maybe a ROM not for S3 but for some other phone might work.. What should I look for? Screen res, processor....
It looks like hunting a needle in the sea
Suggest you search and read the hundreds of identical post and see if you can find a forum/ firmware .
You require rom for your phone not some other phone .

How has my phone become compromised by non-oem Galaxy Store.

So.. What happened was..
I've debloated my G892AUCU5CTA2 (S8 active) via adb Bridge and as it was a stringent debloating list it uninstalled most of the Samsung bloat. This is usually fine, right?
The issue occurred after I realized through my tinkering w/ Synergy, that for proper application I would need to reinstall Galaxy Store and Themes. So.. Mistakenly I downloaded the Galaxy Store from a non-official source mainly based on laziness and stupidity. This is the Galaxy Store i downloaded.. https://galaxy-apps.en.uptodown.com/android The first thing that obvi wasnt right and still persists even after I uninstalled that version and reinstalled official Galaxy Store is this

Very quickly after installing, this fugazi store tried to immediately download what'sapp, scary, and vigilantly, I stopped that download as well as a bunch of others that were all Chinese or Indian. I disabled data and uninstalled the package and every other other package too! So upon reinstalling like I mentioned up above from Samsungs website, I still have this login in Chinese..
What to do?
If you couldnt tell by my bootloader/build that my phone isn't rootable, I debloated via adb.. I'm very new to the phone world and would love and appreciate very much some help and tips/info as I'm going to start a bachelor in computer science this winter and don't know really kno anything in comparison to the vastness in ya'lls ability and knowledge. So any required reading on top of help with the fix would be very lovely. Maybe a mentor? So.. Maybe dm me if you wouldn't mind developing a friendship w/ the loyalest of well meaning ineffectual. Thanks guys
