I am going experiments with trying to get armv7 games / applications to work armv6 phones and follow up I try to change the model number. So is it safe for this specific phone?
Specs:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy mini
Rooted: Yes
OS: Android 2.3.4 Offical
ROM: Stock
PS: Sorry my bad english
Yes, you can change build.prop for changing model number...
But that won't magically make arm7-only games to play on arm6...
yes its safe to change it...
and..
Can i change this?
ro.build.PDA=xxxxx
and
ro.build.hidden_ver=xxxxx
is it safe??
I really need help.Few days ago I traveled china and bought galaxy S5.
Now, I want to root the device but In my device the model is only :SM -G900. nothing is written after G900. for that i cant find the version from internet for rooting the device. At last i installed an apps name CPU-Z. In here the model number is showing SM -G900 (k3gduosctc).
But still i can't find the right version to root the device.
plz help me....
You'd need to look at the Sticker behind the battery for determination of the correct Device Model Number. Sometimes the information you see in Settings > About is not accurate. The apps you'd use may get mislaid.
Having said that Since you bought in China, it is likely to either SM-G900I (for Asia Market) or SM-G900K/L/S (Korea Market). My Money would be on SM-G900I. Given that the device is so new, we do not have sub forum for this specific variant yet. But depending on which carrier you are using or planning to use, here are the links to Relevant forums. Sprint Galaxy S5, Verizon Galaxy S5, T-Mobile Galaxy S5, AT&T Galaxy S5
To your question on Root, here's a nice thread for Sprint S5. It gives you a general Idea. But understandably the specifics would depends on your Model.
You may also use Android Hardware Info app or any other Device info apps that look at the hardware to determine Model Number.

Just in addition what Perseus71 already wrote:
Chainfire has already created CF-AutoRoot for various S5 variants.
This is IMO the easiest way to root your device. I have done this with my SM-G900F too.
But first do what Perseus71 has suggested ... you should be sure what exact model of the S5 you have.

what is Perseus71.I told that the model is showing only SM-G900 nothing else.i know there is various model like SM-G900F,SM-G900L etc but my s5 is only showing SM-G900 nothing else.thats why i asked the question.The only thing i can see the model SM-G900(k3gduosctc) when i use cpu-z apps. I can't find this SM-G900(k3gduosctc) model any where...
Is that what is mentioned on the Sticker behind Battery, under Model ?

Hi nissan0808,
I am sorry to inform you that the "UNIVERSAL5410" is commonly used on fake Galaxy devices ( Mostly S4 ). You can make sure by entering your IMEI here: IMEI Analysis. Check under the IMEI Validity Assessment.
Find it by dailing *#06#
This doesn't necessarily mean that you can't root the device, you can try the following tool:

Cheers!

[Q] I9505 Imei null/null - Baseband version Unknown
No response in two days, thread closed, thanks.
Hi friends. I am a new user this form. I want to a question. why did smartphone must be rooted,when after the imei number changed? Or should it be?
Hi
I'm new to the forum. I am using it for the first time,
I need your help. My cousin from Holland bought a new phone and gave me his old device J7 2016, I have a problem in my country, a device that is not registered with imei cannot be used to search. Since the registration fee is more expensive than the phone, I want to replace the ime with the ime of my registered device. Now when I insert my phone sim card (turkey Turkcell)
no call is made. What can I do? Help me please.
note: i am using translation some things may be meaningless.
