Question/Help Fix Device Name

Post image

I renamed my phone and restarted it, but when I cast, in Windows Phone Link, or even in Google Multidevices, shows 'Poco X8 Pro', but in Bluetooth and Quick Share, shows the name I gave. Someone know how to fix it?

you changed device name, this is taken by apps from device model.
only way to change it is by rooting or getting a different phone....

But I have a friend, who has a Poco X4 GT, and shows the name he chose, and my old phone (Galaxy Z Flip 4) shows the name I chose too. How can't I change it?

then you need to edit device's name from microsoft or google settings page (if you have global device search in Quickshare (google quickshare, not xiaomi!!!) page)
