Want an app to think i am using a different device - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What do i need to do to make sure that a device think i am using an other device? I want to change my S8+ into a Galaxy Tab S4 or Note9. Is it enough to only change the device model name adb, or do it need to change my imei and my device ID (and if so, how to find something that supports Note9 or S4 yet?)?

For the fortnite skins isn't it ?
To make sure that you're using the s9 , you should buy it and play fortnite on it .

Changing the IMEI is illegal in most countries. Therefore discussion surrounding that is prohibited on xda.

Hi,
I recently, by mistake bought a replica of Galaxy Nexus which run on a 1.2ghz Mediatek processor as per Antutu tester (it also show the manufacturer as Samsung and model name as Galaxy nexus ). Its a single SIM phone running 4.0.2 and also identifies SIM card and network but does not make calls ?
Is this a firmware issue or some setting issue? It also does not have Gapps installed in it? Any help would be greatly appreciated...

You probably speak about Samsung Monte, S5620. Seeing the phone specs, it can't run more than GingerBread and even then, not sure that it would be smooth.
Porting android to another phone is an incredible work, it need first to break bootloader security, and find another android phone based on same hardware (like GS1 for wave 1 and 2); and then it need to change or write thousands lines of code.

IMEI changing related topics aren't allowed on xda.
Hi,
This falls under rule 9 since for many countries it is illegal to (at least permanently) change a device's IMEI.
The rationale here is simple - a stolen device could be reprogrammed to no longer be on the blacklist and be sold.
Makes me wonder why you need a permanent solution.
In the meantime, this thread is closed.

Rooting for a S6

Hey so I was hoping someone could help me root my samsung galaxy s6, I know it's a super old phone but I don't think you need the new one every year. I only want a method that involves using an apk since im too lazy to use a pc. I am running 7.0 and my base band version is g920aucu6aqc1. I have been searching for a while now and none have worked so if you know of one or can make one that would be much appreciated. :fingers-crossed:
