Device model code constraints
Google Play Services for AR (ARCore) relies on built-in and over-the-air updated
ARCore device profiles to provide device-specific configuration and calibration
parameters that ensure reliable tracking performance across allARCore supported devices.
Because these device profiles are loaded at runtime based on the model code
(adb shell getprop ro.product.device), it is critically important at each
device model / SKU utilizes a globally unique model code, specifically:
The same model code must not be reused across similar, but not identical,
devices models.
ARCore supported devices must also not reuse model codes already in use by
any other Android devices, including devices that are not ARCore supported.
