THL W200, a Chinese cheapie. I would guess that its version of Android (4.2.1) is pretty vanilla. I would also guess that there are apps to enable reverse tethering if it's commonly disabled or unavailable - if you can run TCP/IP over the USB cable one way, then it's only a network setting or two to run it the other way. Stroller.
