Hi, a couple of yeas ago, I bought a Note 2 from craigslist then later found it was a fake. It was the same size, and model #, but I then started finding fake stuff. Stylus was fake. Screen size was off, cell signal stopped working, etc. It's running android 4.1.1. (baseband version MAUI.11AMD.W12.22.SP.V7.P3,2012/12/27 11:22). AnTuTu Benchmark was preinstalled with fake specs. So, I can't trust any specs I see in Settings, my guess it's some Chinese phone disguised as Note 2.
So, How can I identify the exact specs of the phone in hope that I can install a new ROM or cyanogenmod on it.
Any help is appreciated.

Sorry you got duped buddy. Unfortunately, if it's a fake phone and a generic vendor. it may be difficult to find out which device model it is, and even if you do, getting a custom ROM for it like CM is a very VERY remote possibility, unless you're willing to learn and cook one for yourself.
You can try to install official Antutu from play store, or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Bfield.CpuIdentifier
or
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.curvefish.apps.deviceinfo&hl=en
These are Play Store apps that may help you identify your device or at least its innards.
Best of luck!

That answers your question about identifying the specs. Whatever device you have, is certainly not on the supported list of CyanogenMod, or other popular custom ROMs.
I'm afraid there's nothing more that I can offer you. You can ask around here and see if you get more info : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android

How do you find out all of the specs like that I think I have the same phone
I have issues with the android stopped error a lot and I can't login into gmail or anything. I am not very smartphone savvy either but I could use some help also on how to get those specs to try and get my phone rooted. Thanks

Read up on this thread so that you can make a backup of the stock rom using mtk droid tools.

Once you get that done, any mishaps occur you will have something to flash back too using sp flash tool.

Hello I just got the 45USD Lenovo S400 phone, wich of course is not a Lenovo, it is a modified S4 mini clone with MT6582 CPU, Adreno 305, 256MB RAM. Antutu says rooted: YES. Recovery is in chinese .
Is there any chance to flash some custom ROM compatible with this hardware?
On the phone there is Chinabox logo and also ZBW-PS1 number.
Thank you for suggestions.(if any)

Your best bet would be to look at the hardware inside the phone as other "White box" smartphones may share the same hardware and have custom ROMS ready for them.
Unfortunatley this is the issue as their are so many variants of white box brands and not enough developers for them all
Hope I could help and good luck in the search for ROMS

I can disassemble that, there are 9 screws and it looks like it won't be a problem, when I do this, I will post pics here.
What should I focus for? I mean, the CPU is known, but what else should I focus for?

ehy there, a friend brought to me this phone asking if there is a better rom (multilanguage and smooth). Any ideas? The stock sucks
I got this tablet free from a "presentation" and it came already rooted. It is incredibly slow and basically useless so I was going to see if I could do something to it, I was going to install a SlimROM or something. Perhaps I am misunderstanding... I used Syshard Info to determine the model is actions_7031_q88 .. below is some of the info. Can anyone help me identify which version of things I should be installing? I am seeing things like Allwinner etc online but mine is Actions? Is there no support for this tablet? Thanks!
System Info:
Model: actions_7031_q88
Manufacturer: actions
Brand: Android

Additional info to help you tell me if this tablet is closer to garbage than useful:

Hi !
Devices with such a small ram amount are expected to be slow considering the amount of resources requested by the applications
