They said the box was fake but the phone was not?

 

[hell911]

but there is custom software in my phone, u can look at my topic here >> Phone Bricked AGAIN after repair! - xda-developers

(im sry if links to other forums are not allowed, u can delete the link if its not allowed)

we actually bought 2 S2 phones from that guy..

the other phone was clean, got updated with Samsung Kies.. but my phone has custom software in it, so i cant update this one.

So if it isn't fake why are you asking us? Do you need help with something else?

Can you post pictures of the phone? Or a screenshot of your "About device" so we can see the build number and software it's running

 

[hell911]

baseband version: unknown
build number: IMM76D.UCLF6
(no firmware version included in the About Device)

is this enough?

i actually have topic here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46181442

It looks like they said your firmware is messed up. No screenshot though?

Just to answer your question, the box is real. Samsung produced two Galaxy S II variants for AT&T in 2011: The Galaxy S II (Model #: SGH-i777), which is a non-LTE phone, and the Galaxy S II Skyrocket (Model #: SGH-i727), which is a LTE phone. The phone on the box is the i777 model. Since you received the Skyrocket model, either the person selling it to you goofed and used the wrong box or they sent you the wrong phone. I'm guessing it's the former.

 

[hell911]

yea i received the i727 model.

so i727 is better than i777?

777 has LTE, 727 doesn't

777 has LTE, 727 doesn't

It's the other way - the 777 doesn't have LTE, the 727 does.

727 does have LTE, my phone has it. not using lol.
