i want new phone unlocked because my g1 is slow but i was curious if there was a way to know if the chinese android phone is flashable and using which rom? and which is a good phone to buy ...

It hasn't even been 3 hours, there's no need for a bump. Also I don't think those cheap knockoffs can be flashed but it's possible. First you have to root it though which is probably possible with one of the "one-click root" apps. Actually flashing one is a bit more involved because of hardware differences. Next time just get the real phone instead of a knockoff, save yourself some headache and heartache at not being able to do everything you want.
i actually have a g1 thank you very much handsome
Well then take out the "next time"s from my previous post and I stick by it. Knockoffs generally aren't that great. Getting the real version from a store is better, even craigslist or ebay.
I rooted my galaxy note replica with bin4ry it worked perfectly as for flashing i have flashed a few things but to flash a rom it would be harder because i have found out i would have to port the custom rom to work with my device.

What did I miss? Why the assumption that the OP is talking about a "cheap knock-off". Maybe he means a Huawei, or ZTE or something.
Rooting android from China
Ok, i don't know if this is the right place to ask this question, but i'm desperate. I want to flash my phone that i recently bought in China, but i'm getting no where. The problem is that i can't find recovery mod that will work on my phone. If someone have any idea what recovery mod should i try, please suggest it to me.
I'm using Samsung Galaxy Style Duos I-8262D.

It will depend on the device you have. You should search xda for your device name, but if it is a cloned device, you may not be able to find anything, because some clones are not well supported.
I cannot download it because my carrier is us but all my accounts and business are in Canada. I am using an older version which works quite nicely but I'd like to have the newest version before something happens. Can ANYONE help me? Please

It is likely you will brick your phone if you do, so try with caution.
If you do try it, I would love to know how it goes. I haven't seen of anyone actually attempting it in the past year or two.
Hi! I bought my S8+ some days ago from AT&T Mexico, just got it unlocked. I want to stay stock, no don't really want to root my device and I want to receive OTA updates as if I had an unlocked international version.
I've been reading quite a bit on the forum but I'm just more confused about how to achieve that. First of all, I don't really care about CSC here, at&t Mexico doesn't offer anything special or something that I want to keep and updates from them usually take ages to be available. So, I want my device to be as if I just bough an international unlocked version if possible and receive OTA updates normaly so I can have the latest firmware.
Hope I'm being clear with this, I'm a little confused about what to do. Hope someone can point me in the right direction. I already have ODIN and I know how to use it but I don't know what to do now.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I have the Exynos version. G955F
