Because I don't have The build.prop file so I got from the and paste it to the system after I rebooted the phone the file was gone

I believe some phones don't have the build.prop (maybe sense?). You can probably find guides on google that will tell you how to change the device model for your specific phone. (Note, you need root to change the build.prop file)
I did root it

There's a chip that belongs in the nexus chipset that we don't have..that's why we can't get google wallet can't remember what it's called though.

I figure why not and downgrade to the classic android market, don't care for Google play much. So how would I downgrade to a very early version like that and prevent it from re-updating back to Google play?

Well, you could find an apk somewhere for an older version (extract from a rom, for example) and delete/freeze market updater apk.
This is a good idea

[APK] Old Market v2.3.6
What coccolino_dbro said. Here's the apk for old Market v2.3.6. Got it from BlackICE ROM for HTC DHD.
Thank you, so I would freeze market updater with nobloat and then install this apk which would replace the current one?

I disabled the market updater with nobloat, that should hold right?

freeze market updater, delete the old market apk and replace it with the new apk
I disabled it with no bloat and installed the new apk which replaced the old apk

Does it work then?
Well I disabled it with nobloat, but after a reboot the icon changed and it upgraded to the version where the shopping bag android icon changed a little. So I tried freezing it, after a reboot it was back to Google play.

Do I need to delete the play store before installing the new market one?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda premium
I deleted the old one, installed the new one, and it won't stop crashing.

Try deleting MarketUpdater.apk and the Google Play apk through a root file browser. I think Google play apk is called Phonesky.apk and not Vending.apk. Anyway delete both those files from your /system/app folder and then move the old market apk to the folder. Set permissions to rw--r--r (same as all the other apps in the folder) and reboot. Should work now. Copy the MarketUpdater.apk to your SD card before deleting, just in case.

You could try Market Unlocker or build.prop mods (to imitate a different device).
There is a program on 4shared that allows you to do it easily I found. But didn't last long ended up changing roms again
