[Q] How to change Wi-Fi MAC address on SGS? - General Questions and Answers

Hello everybody,
I am right now on latest Juwe ROM (5.3, Semaphore 1.5.0) and I am trying to change my wifi MAC address somehow. Is there any way how to do this please?
I already searched for some ways how to do this, but was not succesful...
For example here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917684
But I can not find nvram.txt file on my SGS, just found nvram_mfg.txt and nvram_net.txt (and in different location then described in mentioned thread).
Also found some other tutorials, but it uses cmd line and it was for completely different device...
Is there any way how to do this on my SGS please?

Make rom file from PND?

Dear,
I am new on this forum therefore I do apologyze if I am posting at the wrong place
I have a nearly no name GPS (Magnum PND 2735) with Navigon on it.
It has Windows CE 5.0 on it (some references if it can help/ 00039-267-519-955 and X11-1532).
On the internet I found a program called MioPocket (MP, I can't post a link here, google will find it easyly for you). It allows you to get acces to the OS of your GPS and also allows to use other GPS programs (with a handy user interface).
Now I first used an older version of it with no problem. Then I installed the latest version and I had some troubles with some softwares so I decided to remove it again an reinstall it. Unfortunately it must have gone wrong; Now the GPs does not start, I have the startup screen working and then nothing starts. I suppose some drivers must have been deleted.
Now I have acces to my GPS with a USB cable to my computer. I have acces to the root of the GPS (Windows) but a lot of files are secured.
I have a friend with exactly the same GPS. He copied a maximum of files (able to copie) for me but it didn't work.
As a lot of files a locked I looked out for a rom file but did not find one. After a lot of research I found this friendly forum. I know my problem has not to do with HTC phones but the solution might be the same.
I would like to know if it would be possible (and how) to make a rom file from the OS on my friend's GPS and then how to install it to my GPS.
Is there specific software requested? Is there a procedure on how to make a rom file from a mobile device? Is it possible to make a rom file from any mobile device?
I do hope anyone can help me, I was so happy with my GPS.
First of all I thank everyone on this forum, you are all friendly and helpful.

[Q] Intalling ubuntu with Net-install, waiting for connection

Hello there,
I have a nice little sbkv2 tf101, and I wish to install a clean Ubuntu on it in dualboot.
So I followed the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852702 and I tried to do it, it seemed quite simple.
I used the Olife wheelie updater to send the ubuntu.img found in the last thread (and renamed into ubuntu.img) and some packages for android.
Everything was send successfully.
I did the setup thing and configure the wpa_supplicant.conf (and removed other config):
Code:
network = {
[INDENT]ssid="myconnectblabla"
scan_ssid=1
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="mypasswordyouwontseehere"[/INDENT]
}
I didn't change much...
My router use the WPA-TKIP protection (I dont have more information about)
I then rebooted and I found the message:
wait for connection
60 sec ..blabla
and falling back to the commandline entries.
My question is : do we have to add some special driver update? I can't see why it is not working...
I also tried:
change in my router: password, WEP, WPA-TKIP+AEP, and some other configuration.
different configuration of wpa_supplicant.conf using howtos
change the kernel with Jhinta's one (I had some kernel panic...)
I assume I'm quite a newbie but I can't find anything extremely clear anywhere about it...
Somebody have any idea how to successfully connect it to my network?

[Q] Can't change / clone / spoof MAC Address since ROM upgrade

Hi, first post
I need to be able to change / spoof / clone my Samsung Note 2 / II GT-N7100's WLAN MAC Address in order to access a wireless router (which I am allowed access to).
In the past I was able to do this using Busybox, but since upgrading my ROM I have not been able to do so. The command seems to work, but when I connect, my router shows my phone trying to connect using the original MAC.
PhoenixROM v13 -- worked -- I could change my MAC and connect with no issues.
PhoenixROM v14 -- no worky (this ROM is based on Android 4.3)
PhoenixROM v15 -- no worky still
Any ideas from someone else who has tried this? Let me know if I can provide more information.
Thanks!

[Q] Network shares with Cifs on S3 mini GT-I8190 will not work

Hi @ all,
sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but as a new user I can not post a reply in a current discussion, where my problem belongs to.
Device: S3 mini (GT-I8190) with Version XXAMG4 and Kernel 3.0.31.1332988.
Device was flashed with openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0
Device is rooted with Super-SU1.3
BusyBox is installed
I try to connect to a windows share over two diffrent apps:
CifsManager v1.5
MountManager
target host is in same WLAN and - yes WLAN is on and operates fine ..
share works on my other windows and on my ubuntu without problems.
I have tried several mount methods and diffrent cifs.ko files to get a connection, but it don't work.
I always get message: No such device
Where can i get the right cifs.ko file for my phone? I've searched lot of sites, but for my kernel there
is nothing. Or do you have any other hint for me, why it would not connect?
Thanks a lot to all!

[Q] Mac spoofing

How do I spoof a mac address on my OnePlus One?
It seems to be impossible. The usual apps fail and so does a manual ifconfig shell.
Anyone got a clue on this? Help would be really appreciated.
Same problem
I need to spoof MAC adress on my OPO, i've tired all the apps but everytime the MAC seems changed succesfully but when i try to connect to my router, the phone have issues to autenticate. My router has only a wpa, and in the android WIFI menu i see: "saved" on the connection.

SOLUTION!!
Ok, i've been searching for month how to spoof MAC address on our device, but anybody helped me.
So i've tried all possible steps to change the MAC address and finally i've done it!
Here's the procedure i've followed:
1. (Requirements) Have a rooted device. (i don't know if busybox is required but in doubt, install it)
2. Install a file manager (Root explorer reccomended)
3. Go in settings, wifi, tap the three point at bottom right, advanced, and disable "scanning always avaible"
4. Open Root Explorer and go in this directory: /sys/devices/fb000000.qcom.wcnss-wlan and you'll find a file called: "wcnss_mac_addr"
5. Open "wcnss_mac_addr" with text editor
6. you'll see only your current MAC address. You can just edit it (edit only last digit recomended) and Save changes.
7. Disable and re-enable Wifi, and you've just edited your MAC address! Enjoy
Important: The Mac address will restore as default everytime you reboot your phone.
sorry for the basic english because i'm italian, if you have any question please ask me.
I hope i've helped you.
