Question [Q] Cloned Nexus I9250 ISSUE

Hello there.
I've just bought my new cloned samsung nexus and its awesome you cant find difference between it and original one except software issue i will mention it now.
first let me introduce my phone technical data :
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
BBChip : MT6575
Model :I9250
IMEA : 390322160012064
IMEA :390322160012068
Modem ver.I9250XXKK6
BAR Code : MT012345678901234567
Kernel : 2.6.35.7-gaaa2611 (android-build@apa28) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) #1 PREEMPT Fri May 11
OS Ver : Android Ver 4.0.2
SW Ver. ALPS.GB FDD2.MP.V3.14
Custom Build Verno : 1336728834
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
This phone cant get into bootloader mode or fastboot mode actually i dont know which method they use for updating this phone.. perhaps its flashing device like micro-box or something.
- When u press Vol up and down + PWR you will go to Factory mode which have some options like factory reset , hardware test , clean flash....etc
- When you press Vol Up and PWR you will go to Android system recovery (3e)
which i think most ppl know her, ,just standerd useless function to me until now as long i don't have clockworkmod instead of it.
- adb is working and i can send commands to phone like CAT or push command and i have used it to install market only but i cant install gmail until now. i will find amethod later(maybe you can help me too)
- i used software named CASUAL 117 and this software using adb method and i have suceeded to root my device and install busybox through it. but when it comes to the most important part which is clockworkmod i got this message
i find something strange when i use casual 117 which is : each time i try to install clockworkmod through it i got this message
..
Pushing Recovery image to sdcard
Pushing Recovery image to sdcard444 KB/s (5427200 bytes in 11.921s)
Flashing Recovery image to recovery partition/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/recovery: cannot open for write: No such file or directory.....!!!
so i used ROOT EXPLORER and create it manually and it works and success to upload the recovery image through casual 117 but i found when i restart my phone that all directories i create were deleted..its like getting to default directories on each restart so no folders or files can be created. i tried to change permission for folders but also useless,,
Guys if you have any other methods can help or at least find away to create folders without delete on restart please help me and i will be thankful for your efforts.
its a big challenge for me and YOU
PS:
1-My Cloned Nexus I9250 running ICS 4.0.2
2-Rooted with superuser Mode
3-Busybox installed
4-adb Working While phone is on only

waiting for experts answers

You cannot use ANYTHING in the galaxy nexus forum for that phone.
Its not a galaxy nexus.
And from why I can see it has a gingerbread kernel.

Kernels won't work, roms won't work and recoveries won't work.
For your own sake don't flash them.

Unhappy Keep your Money..Lesson learned

WOW...to Op

I thought about buying one of those phones from Android-sales.com, fastcardtech.com and others but every time think about it,something in my mind says dont do it. Yeah they have some really nice Clones of all the popular phones on the market.I saw a SG3 in white & blue and was VERY temped also the one like what you have the King "Galaxy Nexus".. But if you have problems your out of luck for a quick turn around,if this is your only phone. As much as the looks great..I would have bought a use sammy,moto,lg,...etc here. Yeah the price is great and folks will think you have the latest and greatest but the risks..man the risks are not worth my $200 to $300 bucks and neither should yours...
