Why is another device model displayed during Google account 2-step verification when logging in through GBox?

When you log in to your Google account using GBox, the Google verification system may show a different device model instead of your actual Huawei device.

This happens because GBox runs Google services inside a virtual environment.

GBox creates a virtual Android system that allows Google services to work on Huawei HMS devices. When you sign in to your Google account through GBox, your account is actually logged in to this virtual environment, not directly to the Huawei device.

As a result, Google may display the virtual device model instead of the real Huawei device during 2-step verification.

 How can I check the virtual device model used by GBox?

✅ Answer

You can check the virtual device model running inside GBox by following these steps:

1. Open GBox on your Huawei device.

2. Search for DevInfo inside GBox.

3. Install the DevInfo application, then clone it inside Gbox to see the Gbox App device info.

4. Open the app to view the virtual device information used by GBox.

This will show the virtual machine model that Google services recognize when running inside GBox.
