I recently purchased a clone S4. When I went into settings to see the details of the phone, the information is quite limited.
Model number : GT-I9500
Android version : 4.2.3
Baseband : I9500ZNUAMDI
Build : JDQ39.I9500ZNUAMDI
Could somebody let me know what brand phone it is. I thought it may be the Feiting I9500 but I'm not sure now. I can't find anything about the chipset etc.
Thanks
EDIT: So i've checked my device info on AnTuTu and it says
CPU : Exynos 5410 1.6GHZ
CPU Cores : 4+4
CPU model : ARMv7
GPU Manu : Imaginatilin Technologies
GPU Model : PowerVR SGX 544MP
Any help on phone brand
Ok so thanks to google, it seems I may have an early model HDK galaxy s4 i9500.
