After Reverting Back To Windows 8.1 My Phone Thinks It Is A Different Model

My phone is a Nokia 1020. I installed the Windows 10 preview. I found that the camera didn't work properly so I used the recovery tool to revert back to Windows 8.1. Now my phone thinks it is a Nokia 909 instead of a 1020.

How do I get it back to 1020?

That's normal. Mine does too.

Some think so, don't worry about it, its just cosmetic.

I might go to hell for laughing at this.

So it doesn't affect the features? Well OK but I hope Windows 10 release version has fixed the problem with the camera that I found with the preview version where only the movie recorder worked and I could not take still photos and the 41 megapixel setting was not available.

Nope.

Well, it varies for people. I know some people complaining about photos not being taken 41 MP full size in 10, etc.
