I need help, I have GT-I9228 from china and tried to load N7000 using Odin and it failed.
I have read some where that I can replace with N7000 ROM and now end up with message "SOFTWARE UPDATE FAIL" message. I can still go into the boot loading menu.
Appreciate if any one could help me to the orginal ROM file also help to unbrick.
Thanks.

1) This is so far from posted in the right section it ridiculous. This is a DEVELOPMENT forum for the N7000. NOT A QUESTIONS FORUM FOR THE I9228.

2) You really should read more before you just start flashing crap.

3) It's not bricked if it boots, learn your terminology, even if English isn't your first language.

4) Find yourself a stock GT-I9228 ROM and flash it via Odin.

5) Enjoy having a device that works.

6) Don't try flashing anything else until you have read 25 articles about your device with a minimum of 10 hours spent doing that reading.

7) Rejoice, I saved you more heartache.

Why did you get a GT-I9228 when you know it's not a standardized version like the N7000? :eek:

Here's a link to I9228ZMKL4 ROM.
Flash it using ODIN.

You can never flash a N7000 ROM because your phone has a different modem than ours. You should have done your research before buying your phone. Your phone has the proprietary China baseband TD-SCDMA. It could even be running a different processor so it's not possible to install a N7000 ROM ever for your phone. If you can successfully root your phone, you might be able to manually install Play Store by pushing Vending.apk to /system/app
