Remember to backup your /system/build.prop so can undo change if future OTA update fails. At least X2's OTA mechanism is balking at build.prop customizations.

Not if you did what you said correctly. I used ES File Explorer to do this and got my phone soft bricked. Had to flash stock ROM. Though, no regrets, I couldn't update my phone due to root so I flashed the updated ROM

There is a better way now. Whatsapp Plus works on the Nokia X/XL without any modifications. If I am not mistaken its version 6.0

or you can change "ro.product.manufacturer=Nokia” to "ro.product.manufacturer=Sony/Samsung”
I have tested and work.:highfive:

Then edit build.prop using Root Explorer. Change ro.build.manufacture from Nokia to Baidu.

How to do it bro mine is XL after it updated to v 1.2.3.1 whatsapp + not working anymore even the new v. 6.0

It's okay to let the option "ro.product.manufacturer=Baidu" for ever?

Ok. But, WPID is the same thing (the same tutorial) for all WP8.x/W10M Lumia devices. The only thing that is different is currently to get the ROMs.

For me original adblocker by Sandix works on my 830 10.0.14328.1000.

Didnt worked on lumia 640 xl.

if you have full filesystem access on your phone you can just copy a modified hosts file to windows\system32\drivers\etc

Some questions about the store automatically updates.

I want to use the automatic update feature of the store, but did not want to let it update Lumia Camera.
Anyone have idea ? (My Lumia is unlocked.)

That would be awesome, but I doubt it's possible.

How about to ad lumia camera to blacklist? HKLM\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\PackageManager\Blacklist ?
Or, a xap deployed app can be updated from store
EDIT: i can give you the version 4.9.1.2. as xap.
Or, you can extract your own variant, make it xap an deploy

Isn't that supposed to block your access to an app?

I think that only block update.

It's not in fantasy land but I hate threads like this.
It is possible if some generous dev takes the time to do it, it wouldn't officially exist, Microsoft and Google hate each other its unlikely it would exist officially so the question "Where is Android for Lumia 950" as if you're looking for it as if it existed doesn't make sense.

theres android*7.0 for the lumia 520.....heres hoping its possible for the 950s

No bootloader unlocked on x50

on 520 android is useless... you can boot and run android but almost nothing works because no support.
