I wanted to run Backstab HD on my Explorer running on CM10. However,it gives me the 'not compatible' issue. I looked up the issue on the internet and found out that this issue can be bypassed by editing the certain values in the build.prop so that the game thinks that it is running on HTC Desire C. So I want to know that values of the build.prop should be changed.
Thanks.
Change to Desire_hd

I'm a bit of a newbie but I tried changing the ro.product.model to Desire_HD. It didn't work. I'm posting my build.prop along with this. Can you tell me what values of it to modify?

Once in build.prop you can edit the
following things:
-change Android Version by locating
ro.build.version.release= and changing
the current Build Version.
- Edit your Model # by locating
ro.product.model= and changing your
model #
- change your product brand by locating
ro.product.brand=
Please Note that if you change the
product brand, the name MUST be in ALL
LOWERCASE LETTERS!. and plz check for correct codename
then Save.. and reboot your phone.
Once your device reboots, go to Settings>
About Phone/Device and see the
changes! ;D

Goto system folder using root explorer and do the following in your build.prop file
Edit the following line
From
ro.product.manufacturer= "whatever name here''
To
ro.product.manufacturer= Sony Ericsson
Add a new line
ro.semc.timescape_keys=Sony_Ericsson_Xperia

Just don't know how to change product model in bulid..prop in SENSE 4 BASE roms
HI I'm just flashed the ORdroid 3.0.1 but my sensation XE was recognized as"HTC sensation Z710e" in the setting. I have edit the build.prop and the code"ro.product.model=HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e"is already here.But after many reboots the setting isn't change , I want to ask why this method fails in SENSE 4 BASE rom and how can I change the model ??
p.s. forgive my poor English ... I'm from China...
It's not controlled by build.prop, that is simply how play store and apps identify your device. You will need to edit default.xml for the name in settings to change, but this is only set at first boot.

so you mean that I CAN'T change the model unless I edit the file you said in the zip and reflash it?
Or, you should be able to edit the file on the phone and then master reset.

Hi there
I have seen many posts where people are having trouble installing games from Google play. Xperia is a beast in terms of performance and it can run any game smoothly, thanks to its Adreno 305.
Here is the solution for those who are ready to make all applications COMPATIBLE with your device.
You will need :
ROOT
ES FILE EXPLORER
COMMON SENSE
You may use build.prop Editor from Google play but it didnot help me much so I changed it manually using File Explorer.
Instructions:
After giving root rights to your Explorer, go to device/system/build.prop
Open it using ES Note Editor (Comes with ES file Explorer).
Find ro.product.device
Change ro.product.device from C2105/4 to C6603. Save your file
Go to settings\all and open Google Play.
Clear google play cache .
Restart your phone!
You may change your ro.device.product by build.prop editor but it didnot help much in my case!
DO NOT CHANGE OR ADD EVEN A COMMA IN YOUR BUILD.PROP except as mentioned or you will be bootlooped
Good Luck! Just backup your data to be safe!
You may simply replace your build.prop with the one I have attached. I have c2105 with 4.2.2.
Attached file is in zip so please extract it first and then replace it !
Do everything on your own risk!
I can now install all Gameloft games
"Xperia L" works too.

Cheers for your contribution mate. May I add that, your device name isnot changed in settings at all even when you change it to C6603.
I did the usual process that is done when your phone isnot compatible with certain applications. Change your device name to the latest device in range.
However, after your post, I am to believe that Xperia L is supported by developers as 'Xperia L' , 'C2104' but not C2105. There are also differences due to regional firmware as Indian firmware users have reported apps to be incompatible while many blokes from America have quoted that all applications are COMPATIBLE without any changes to their build.prop which other users had problems with. What strange is both have same model name 'c2104'. Till now it is still not certain what is causing incompatibly issues.
I guess there is some diversion and I am sure there are always many ways to do a certain job!

Maybe it's come from ro.product.device=
How you see I change it to taoshan. Will revert the ro.product.name to stock and report back.
Edit1- Revert to ro.product.name= C2105_1272-2770 and still work.
So its work with only changing the ro.product.device=taoshan.
If I'm not wrong there is no matter of the name if the ro.product.device is the real codename(taoshan).
Can someone test this too?
Edit 2- Found that:
ro.semc.product.name=Xperia L
ro.semc.product.device=C2105
Seems that Sony write it correct but play store read the values from ro.product.* ( without "semc")

You can try installing xposed for GB
And then install a module called xposed additions.
Latest update allows to change default key combinations with custom ones. :good:
