There is no system.prop in the Genymotion OS build : the file is merged with build.prop which is partially read-only.
To modify these properties, you need to overload them with persist. properties. For example, if you wish to change the Product Name (ro.product.name) property value, you need to create the persist.ro.product.name property with the desired value.
To do so, you can use adb:
1. Connect your virtual device to ADB. See How to connect Genymotion SaaS virtual devices to ADB? 2. use the command: adb shell setprop persist.ro.product.name "Your value" 3. reboot the virtual device with adb reboot
The following read-only properties can be changed with this method:
- 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
We assume no liability resulting from the use of modified properties. You are responsible for the use that you make of your virtual device.
