This is a very common question for the Android Community, but trust me, I tried almost everything to change the Brand Name and Model name on my Yureka Plus phone (running Cyanogenmod Nightly Build), but actually nothing worked.
Can anyone suggest any method which can perform it on my phone?
Here is what I tried:
I edited the build.prop in /system and changed ro.product.brand, ro.product.manufacturer etc. to samsung (original values-YU). And rebooted the phone, but then phone is not getting started. Stucks on the Logo screen.
Then I tried changing only Model name, and the same issue happened that phone got stuck on logo screen. Never gets boot-up.
Does anyone have solution for this, please help. Thanks.
Here is the original build.prop of my phone:
