How to change a device product properties (manufacturer, model, etc.) with Genymotion SaaS
How to change a device product properties (manufacturer, model, etc.) with Genymotion SaaS?
Overview
- The Genymotion OS build does not include a system.prop file.
- The system.prop file is merged with build.prop and is partially read-only.
- Persist properties are system properties with the prefix 'persist.'.
- Persist properties override read-only properties.
- To modify these properties, overload them with persist properties.
- For example, to change the Product Name (ro.product.name) property value, create the persist.ro.product.name property with the desired value.
Modify properties with ADB
- To modify these properties, use ADB.
- Connect the virtual device to ADB. See How to connect Genymotion SaaS virtual devices to ADB?
- Use the command:
adb shell setprop persist.ro.product.name "Your value"
- Reboot the virtual device with:
adb reboot
Read-only properties that can be changed
- ro.build.fingerprint
- ro.product.name
- ro.product.manufacturer
- ro.product.device
- ro.product.board
- ro.product.brand
- ro.build.display.id
- ro.serialno
- ro.build.type
- ro.build.tags
- ro.build.description
Liability
- We assume no liability resulting from the use of modified properties.
- You are responsible for the use that you make of your virtual device.
