getprop: Display information about a specific property.
$ getprop ${property}
try on your machine

The command "getprop ${property}" is used to retrieve the value of a system property in an Android environment.

Here is how it works:

  1. "getprop" is the command that retrieves the value of a specified property.
  2. "${property}" is a placeholder for the name of the property you want to retrieve. You need to replace "${property}" with the actual name of the desired property enclosed in curly brackets. For example, if you want to retrieve the value of the "ro.build.version.sdk" property, you would use: "getprop ro.build.version.sdk".

The command "getprop ${property}" will then return the value associated with the specified property. The value could be any type of data, such as a string, number, or boolean, depending on the property you are querying.
