Change build name from android project using cordova

I developed a mobile app using cordova and i'm having a little problem with the Android project when i build the project. When i install the app on my phone it appears the correct name, but the build name is always CordovaApp.apk.

Exp:

PhoneName: MyApp

Build: CordovaApp.apk

I have tried to change the project name on the the build.xml file, but it is chnage again on the build.

<project name="MyApp" default="help">

IS there a way to change the build name?

Thanks.

The Cordova team have hardcoded in the 'CordovaApp' name because of potential issues with unusual unicode characters in app names. For English-language apps, this is usually not a problem, but Cordova is an international project and strange characters can cause issues.

You have to change it in project configuration file (/www/config.xml) not in build file.
