Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so, perform a factory reset
Edit scratch that, you don't even need a custom recovery, just perform a factory reset in the stock recovery

Curious as to why you think that would work? build.prop is in /system. A factory reset won't bring that back.
Without the original firmware and a locked bootloader, there isn't much you can do...

e recovery failed to factory reset

Is anyone having similar problems. I have flashed an open kirin rom. After that I haven't been able to factory reset the phone using the stock recovery and it keeps looping. The factory reset option seems to be blurred out and I can't access it
What should I do in this scenario ?
TIA
Do you have flashed recovery_ramsdisk with Magisk?
In that case, you may have to restore the stock recovery
When I trieed, I noitced that eRecovery boots Recovery to factory reset and wipe. Which was not possible with the falshed magisk....
Good luck,
Peter
