Most people figure out which phone they are buying *before* handing over any money. Good luck.

Maybe a photo of the phone's rear side (without cover and battery) could help.. usually there is some sort of model code printed somewhere that you can google for.. hope this helps.

Thanks guys.
Sublimize,dont get me wrong but i have an original Samsung S3 and S4 and both are still under warranty.I just wanted a cheap android Phone to play with :) I looked on the internet for a Phone and found this one as the best S4 1:1. I do have to admitt that i didnt know anything about the specs of this Phone except what the shop wrote about them. http://www.cheaptech.nl/samsung-galaxy-s4-kloon-clone-android-1-op-1. its a dutch site. I just opened the Phone to look for anything to reveal about this Phone and i took some pictures about the inside.

Not sure if it'll help, but seeing you're rooted, you can use your file explorer and go into the folder "proc" and copy your "config" file to your PC (or you can open it in the file explorer.

This is the config file they used when compiling your kernel. Now, if you look,you may get a clue to what hardware they compiled it for. Maybe.

Seeing it's a MediaTek cpu, you probably could have use the "framaroot.apk" method for root.

Thanks for the replay. I did what you wrote but couldnt find in the proc folder any config file. So i just started opening and reading anything what could have some info,such as driver system cpuinfo and other folders. I found allot about Media Tec hardware parts inside the Phone and "CHMOD" to me that must be China mod if im not mistaken. I will continue reading and hope il find more info on t he Phone.The Phone works good but that isnt the reason why i bought it for:) Lets hope il find what i need or maybe someone else finds anything about it.

Actually, CHMOD stands for "Change Mode". It is a shell command used most often to change file permissions.

As an example of how we would use this command/tool in a terminal:

Code:
chmod +x your_file.ext

Good attempt with "China Mod" though. I like that :D
