How to change product properties (manufacturer, model, etc.) with Genymotion Desktop?

7 months ago • Updated

Note This feature is not available with the free for personal use edition: a paying license is required.

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 product properties, you need to use gmtool with the admin edit and --sysprop options:

For example, to change the model property value to "new_phone" for a virtual device called Samsung Galaxy S9:

Available properties are: MODEL, PRODUCT, MANUFACTURER, BOARD, BRAND, DEVICE, DISPLAY, SERIAL, TYPE, FINGERPRINT, TAGS. You can set multiple system properties.

For more information, please refer to GMTool user guide.
