There are so many different clones. The problem isn't usually that the person thinks they have a real one and try to flash the real Samsung firmware, its that they try to flash the wrong clone's firmware. There are literally hundreds if clones out there.
The solution? Buy a halfway decent phone in the first place and leave it alone. Very good phones now available for <$100. Even if its a crappy clone, its better to leave it alone. Most custom Roms are garbage and rarely actually improve anything.
Needrom unfortunately has caused more issues by making all these Roms easily available and as I said, they usually create more problems than they solve.
The problem is that people arrive here *after* they've flashed. They usually don't ask advice before they flash.

If you see any gaps or places I could improve it, please let me know. Our goal is to help as many people as possible. Preventing them from bricking their phones in the first place would be awesome. I just can't seem to reach people until it's too late and they've already bricked their cheap clone.
