Hello everybody, before i get to my point let me introduce myself.. i am a college student studying in Australia and i am of indian origin although have never stayed there due to parents being moved around in mnc from wen i am small. I just bought my s2 today and i am having some big software issues. The set i bought is from china as i am here on holiday.
Phone Details:
PDA:I9100XWKE7
PHONE: I9100XXKE4
CSC:I9100XEUKD1
I did a factory reset right after buying as i was hoping to rid of these chinese apps but that was no good.. Then i tried to download some android apps from android market but phone saying not recognized. i deleted and syncd my google account 3 times but to no use. PS. i cannot find a default android market app icon on my phone as well..
Can anyone please shed some light about my specific phone and what i must do to get it working to its full potential.. simple google, weather apps is not all i am hoping for.. I love being part of online communities for all my electronics such as my ps3, blackberry and alienware but i am very very new to android and smartphones but i am willing to learn as much as i can. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much folks!

There is a dedicated Galaxy S2 forum for this, I am sure someone can solve your problem there. Here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1055
hello all,
I'm new and forgive me if I'm wrong de forum topic
I bought a chinese mobile and did not arrive on the model chosen, but another.
I would like to find out the model to see if you can update the firmware.
I can explain what I have to look in the phone to understand the pattern and eventually find an update to remove the menus in Chinese?
I am attaching a picture
from what I understand has a Qualcomm MSM7227 processor with 2.2.1 android and interface OS apple
can you help me understand if I can update the phone with Android version 2.3 or later?
I am grateful for the help
thank
claudio
Do you have more infos ?
There is a mark/info on the cover, on the battery, ...?
Exemple of a GooApple g22 : http://www.gizchina.com/2011/04/13/gooapple-g22-android-iphone-4-knock-off-hands-on/
With hardware specification you give, i think it's maybe the GooApple G22 (but with clone it's a bit dfficult because many model exist...), and as is an androphone, you can normally install clockwork mod recovery and flash it to android 3.2 (as i've read for the G22 model).
But before doing anything, be sure what hardware you have exactly otherwise you may brick you phone !!
I took some pictures of the phone.
please help
thank
claudio
Sorry but there is too much models with this specifications ... a lot use the ARMv6 ... and there is no relevant infos on your pics ... nothing found about freesoft21.
When you buy it, wich name have the phone ?? (they have always a name).
Unfortunately, where I had ordered a phone model has seen fit to send me another model and then disappeared.
I find it unusable as a phone
What can I do? you have other suggestions?
thank
claudio
Can you check this video and follow it, let me know if you arrive to activate english.
If your menu is not the same, try to do that :
Type this : *#0044# then press SEND button
This must Set Language to English
I learn from this，thanks!
thanks for the info, however I set the menu language English, but some remained in China.
but I wanted to do is to upgrade to version 2.3 of Android perhaps with a clean version without Chinese writing.
but what are the constraints to update with an updated version of Android?
thank
claudio
can you please help me understand if I update my phone with version 2.3 of Android?
thank
claudio
I'm sorry but i can't help more with this ... maybe search on dedicated forum of clones ...
i saw these kind phones ebay.
try i9+++
and sci phone..
i think you have one of this phone..
Did you ever find out what type of phone it was?

me 2, at least i got the code to set phone to English language
still not able to understand what kind of phone is.
could be a G22 but I'm not sure
I would try to do a backup and try updating.
give me some instructions on what to do?
I know it would be alot of work and research, but you could go to YouTube and watch all the different videos on all the iphone clones and try to see which one your phone looks and operates like. Could be a shot in the dark or it could tell you what you have. Best of luck.
I just shelled out about $900 for a really nice Pioneer AVH-X5700BHS in dash DVD, Sirius and what I looking for specificly was the ability to utilize the Mirorlink or AndriodAuto orAppRadio Live - whatever. I spent countless hours on the phone with the salesmanager from Crutchfield, oh before I forget- This is the second radio I have been sent because they keep telling me my S5 will work and do as shown. I am a starving student so very penny I dont spend on school, I put into my car/hobby/girlfriend - whatever.lol So here is where im at after watching and reading everything I could on what to do, I thought before jumping into just rooting my phone from an unknown source I would ask a community who knows this phone inside and out.
The Phone: Samsung Model SM-G900V
Android Version: 5.o
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Any additional information will gladly be given
From a Youtube video of a guy with the same S5 was controlling his pioneer deck, being able to utilize EVERYTHING that the product is claimed to do, however he said he had to upload a root (didn't give name of source) and dropped his firmware to the 4.4.2, furthermore he said he needed to revise his Kernel to 3.4.0 - so that in his screenshot of his phone after his build number he stated it needed to read " SE for Android Status - permissive. Furthermore he said in order to utilize Screen Mirroring he had to download chrome cast, I couldn't understand why and that is why I am going to attach a link for anyone that is interested or can help!
I appreciate any and all help and or suggestions at this point - God Bless Jon Proctor San Diego Ca

Hi
Just so you know , there is a possibility that rooting your phone might not help your case.
According to these threads.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/mirrorlink-toyota-drivelink-t3015197
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/galaxy-s5-mirrorlink-t3007992
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/help/lollipop-mirrorlink-drivelink-t3019969
Stock Mirrorlink on lollipop devices has compatibility issues.
Maybe you can try this application first before rooting.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/mod-drivelink-mirrorlink-mirroring-t1951960
Again I am not very sure that rooting has "helped" a person to connect to a radio when the radio software doesn't support the device.
In case you decide to root this thread might be of use..

did you spend ANY time to search on the forum before you posted? IT IS NOT POSSIBLE.
technology not compatible, despise it is near the same devices are unique to run windows or android, you should be able to sell your w phone and get an android version
also keep in mind that you might not be happy with the android version. if used to windows phone you will find the higher battery drain under android quite disturbing.

The best bet is to exchange with someone who needs Windows phone but holding an android phone.
windows
It may be worth waiting. Windows 10 may allow you to install android apps

Woot !!!
Hello guys,
Seriously, I'm currenlty struggling to get one, as they're only availabel in the U.S. and nobody wants to ship to my location...
If you really have one of these and want Android, then please make things simple for everybody : contact me to sell yours and get an Android model !
On the other hand, i agree it would be fun to be able to run an SD Android ROM like we did on the HD2, but if you're looking for a NAND ROM, justs swap for a regular M8 that's available everywhere !
P.S. : I'm serious about wanting to buy an M8 for Windows... AT&T unlocked, as we're using only SIM cards here. Thanks ! ^^
Isn't there any swap section on this forum, btw ?
As a FYI to anyone that happens to be messing around in this space: I've intentionally bricked my (Win) M8 into QDLoader 9008 mode, but haven't gotten much further as the device doesn't appear to fully implement Qualcomm's Sahara protocol, or at least implements it differently than any examples for other devices that I've found - it will do the hello handshake and a mode switch but returns some sort of error after that. I'm out of relevant docs and examples on Sahara and firehose though, so I'm pretty much done unless I decide and manage to hook up JTAG.
There was a poster in another thread who said they were able to install android this way, but then never reported back with their "tutorial". As such, they may very well have been lying, but unless someone who understands the M8's Sahara support chimes in, it's still a possibility. Not trying to get anyone's hopes up though, as I'd say it's still unlikely given the lack of dev effort for this phone.
any updates?
Anybody hear about any update on this topic? My friend and I are willing to work on a project to see if we can make it possible. We just need to know where to start. As of now, I have the HTC M8 unlocked to sideloads apps and what not. Anything helps. Being negative never gets you anywhere. Being positive opens new doors. Thanks for your time.
Developers! can you convert windows htc m8 to android?
Hello Developrs!
My friend has a shop of mobile phones and he has a stock of HTC one m8 for windows phones. He wants to let it convert into android. Please let me know if any of you can do this. i will pay you for this.
Thanks

I have HTC one M8 (windows 10 version) at&t unlocked
if you are serious, please contact me on my email [email protected]
we'll keep in touch
Thanks for the offer, but I've bought a Lumia 950 now.
BTW, your email address seems to have been "anonymoused" ! ^^
.
Checking in for any updates. I got handed this phone in an insurance upgrade.
Hi, I can't find the other 3d about the porting, but today I was thinking about the mi4.
If you remember, the MI4 LTE can switch between windows mobile and android... maybe if we study the tools and the code behind that device we might modify/create a tool or (maybe) at least find something interesting that we can apply to our htc one m8.
I'm not a dev and my english is very bad, but I wanted to share with to all of you my thoughts.
And did a factory reset. When I did this, of course it had reactivation lock on, asking me to login to the Samsung account last used on device. of course I don't have, because well I bought the phone thinking I was getting a good deal :/ anyways, like I said im definitely new to all of this and to my understanding although it was a SPRINT device, it is possible to convert it to be used with a TMOBILE sim card and service.. I was told that rooting the device was what I needed to do inorder to use my TMOBILE service on the device. Which is exactly what ive been searching these forums and trying to get a straight answer on how to. Now the next problem is, I decided to check the IMEI and as you may have guessed, yes is indeed bad. It says reported lost/stolen. I know this also is only another hurdle on my road to happiness. Now, my question is, How do I go about flashing to a new IMEI, rooting my device, and going gsm to become tmobile compatable??? Please help somebody, thanks for reading all this I really am in a pickle and really don't want to be out the 300$ I paid for the phone. thanks
