manual DL of android sdk components

Hi, I am trying to intall the android sdk on my work computer. When I am using the android sdk manager to attempt to download the various sdk components. It always fails with connection time out. I am not sure if it is the company firewall policies or not . But can i download the file one by one and add to the platform folder? Would copying an existing sdk install from home work? However I think there is a block on usb sticks on these office machines

Probably your work proxy - you need to configure the sdk to use that proxy. Try ping wpad and then use the resultant ip as your proxy ip in the sdk.

Literally? The command is punch wpad? That failed. My browser there is a pac file with loads of address in it . In a pac file what variable is likely to be the proxy?
Nvm when I was typing this I was trying random ips thanks. +rep

WiFi PPPoE Flash zip

I have created a flash zip for WiFI based PPPoE connectivity.
Purpose / Why is this needed?
Many of us have DSL / PPPoE based connection which is set to bridged mode. PC / Laptop connects to internet via PPPoE / DSL dialer using username and password.
While it is easy to do it on PC / laptop, the android still can not. Only option is keep PC on allowing internet sharing via PC (PC becomes android's gateway)
This is waste of electricity as we need to keep PC / laptop on.
So I have created a small zip which uses rp-pppoe (from WiFI PPPoE android app)
Requirements
Android version > 2.1 (tested for Android 4.3 / ARM only)
Kernel which supports PPP (most kernels do)
Android terminal emulater or similar
How to install?
Flash the attached zip
Restart android
Using your favourite editor (root permission needed) change USERNAME and PASSWORD in file /system/bin/wifipppoe to as provided by your internet service provider
How to use?
Start/activate WiFi on your android
Open android terminal emulator
Run the command: su -c wifipppoe #allow root access if prompted
Thats all!
How to disable PPPoE?
Simply stop/de-activate WiFi
Hope this helps!

[Q] Mac address Spoofing temporarily without rooting

Hi all!
I want to spoof mac address of my android phone without rooting it.
I have installed 'Busy Box Non Root' and 'Terminal Emulator' in my phone from the play store. Both the apps are working fine (I guess ) and I can even see my mac address in the 'Terminal Emulator' with the help of command : ip link show wlan0.
However when I am trying to set it to the desired address (mac address of my another android phone), by the command : ip link set wlan0 address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, I am getting error in my Terminal Emulator as "Operation not Permitted".
Can anyone help me with this error,please?

Please review [Guide] [Root] How To Spoof The Mac Address Of Any Android Device

Asking about wifi ftp file transfer server to pc without asking for permission

Hello everyone

but the problem is every wifi ftp server is asking for permission to start and ofc i cant do this because touch isnt working
so i want to install app via google play using my google account that allow me to access my phone files without permission
any ideas ??

It doesn't need Internet to transfer data like pictures or PDF files from phone to PC:
If phone is USB-OTG-enabled then all you need is an USB-OTG-adapter cable to access the files from PC: the phone then acts like a USB-stick ( USB host ).
Of course PC must support USB-OTG, too, and phone should be fully charged.
How-To ( Windows PC ):
Unlock your device.
With a USB-OTG cable, connect your device to your computer.
On your device, tap the "Charging this device via USB" notification.
Under "Use USB for," select File Transfer.
A file transfer window will open on your computer. Use it to drag files.
When you're done, eject your device from Windows.
Unplug the USB-OTG cable.
