Just recently bought the I9300 out here in China. Actually it's the 2nd time I've bought this phone (lost it the first time I owned it). Right away I noticed that some of the preinstalled chinese bloatware apps were different than what came preinstalled on the I9300 I previously owned.
Living in China I'm always nervous of something being a fake, even when I buy it from a trusted source. I think it's very possible that the phone has simply changed since the last time I bought it (about a year ago) but I figure it's better to post the specs on here and let someone who knows more about the phones in China decide if my phone is a fake or not.
Model Number: GT-I9300
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: 19300ZCELL1 (I couldn't find any information about this baseband version on any English websites and it's different from the S3 I owned last year)

I think, your device is a Samsung Galaxy S3 Original.
You have the versión GT-i9300_CHN_CHN from China Unicom.
I have the same versión, but i change the stock rom, i made a modified rom from CHINA and Spain, so i can enjoy Play Store, and full Spanish or English Android.
If you still have doubts, Search the App: Genuine Galaxy S4/S3/Note II, this app tell you if your Galaxy is original, using hardware test.
Good Luck

Don't worry, buddy. That's just fine. You may install a new rom such as XXELLA or later.
The baseband ZCELL1 is customed for CHINA UNICOM. That is the ONLY services provider that have WCDMA/HSDPA network.

Hello XDA!
I would like to root my newly purchased device, an Obi mobile S401 (I believe it's nicknamed Raccoon).
It's a cheap-o device (250 AED, roughly 80$ US), which may account for its near obscurity - so far I've been unable to find anything relevant to rooting this device, whether on Google or by browsing various message boards like this one.

I have been searching for a method to root my device (O+ 8.37z) since I acquired it last year, and until now, I haven't found one yet. Can anybody help me?
Here are the specs found on the "About phone" option in the Settings:
Model number: 8.37z Android
Version: 4.2.2
Baseband Version: MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V1.P33,2014/05/13 15:41

Thanks, brothers!
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
I'm not finding any device specific forums for your model or any specific rooting threads for you. Sadly, the most I can do for you is have your thread move to a Q&A forum, maybe some experts there can help you. I hope this helps, good luck.
