hi! i tried a flashing a rom s011 and the next day i can't open the wifi and bluetooth anymore. i think the rom has a bug. so i tried flashing another rom s013 but i still got the error message from wifi and bluetooth, still won't open. i tried clearing cache, format data, re-flashing the s013 rom, disabled wireless connections for 5 mins. turning on/off phone, but still got that error.
i looked at the status of my phone and it says:

[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!

Working MAC spoofer solution for recent Android 6 marshmallow smartphones?

I've been looking for a working MAC spoofer solution (app/mod/patch) for a test phone running Android Marshmallow but I didn't find anything that works.
currently the test device is a LG G3 running fulmics ROM 5.0 (based on Android marshmallow / LG 30F), but it seems the matter is rather android 6.x related.
The Aim is to change/spoof temporarily or permanently the hardware MAC address of the internal network adapter (eth0, but mainly wlan0).
So there are a lot of apps out there in the market which claim to do exactly that. I tried many of them, but nothing works as intended.
To name a few of them:
- Wifi Mac Changer
- ChameleMAC
- Mac Address Ghost
- MacChanger
- MacSpoofer
- many more tested
- Phone ID Changer / Device ID Changer app/module for xposed
even the most promising one:
- Pry-Fi by chainfire
does not work, it just crashes while trying to spoof.
all of them claim to change the mac, but it's not working on this device or general on an android 6.x version.
either they crash or they fail in spoofing.
so I tried to spoof the MAC manually in a Terminal with BusyBox installed and a command like:
busybox ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55, checked if it worked with iplink cmd and it did. But when I try to connect to my access point, I can't join the wifi network it always neglects my pw. when I turn wifi on/off, the MAC gets reset to original hardware MAC and I can again connect to my wifi AP.
So even when trying to spoof the MAC manually it doesn't work.
And I don't know if it is a problem with Android 6.x, the device itself or the ROM i used.
Does anybody else have a working mac spoofer solution for an Android 6.x version smartphone or have an idea how to this working?

Did you also try connecting to an open network after the busybox method ? I read somewhere the pw issue was only when connecting to secured networks.
Other than that ... I'm also looking for a reliable solution. No luck so far.
Also , you might want to try / read http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-network-ghost-mac-hostname-spoofer-t3145866
Is explains why the busybox method fails with WPA networks.

thanx for the link. It was interesting.
unfortunately the app doesn't work either. so we still have no working solution or app that does spoof the mac on marshmallow devices.

[Completed] Mac Address spoofing And authentication problem

After Rooting my sony Xperia Z and got root access and tried to change my mac address with the traditional way ( busybox and terminal emulator ) and with mac address applications too. Everytime it says that my mac address have been changed i can't connect to my wifi network again i don't know why, it says : " Authentication problem " can someone help pleaseeee i have 6.0.1 Android.
thanks in advance

Hi !
I don`t really understand why did you changed the mac address and also I am concerned about how successful this attempt was
In order to do that there`s a set of permissions to be acquired , if you don`t know how to do it , you better restore to default
You can have a look at this thread
Good luck !

Question Spoofing MAC adress

I can't find any post here about spoofing the MAC adress , I mean what's the use of the Root if we can't spoof the MAC adress is there anything we can do for that ? For example there's old method using BusyBox and android terminal emulator does that work ?
I have Xiaomi Poco x 3 pro custom recovery by TWRP and Magisk root

Doesn't Android12 use a random MAC adress whenever it connects to a WiFi?
So why would you need to spoof that?
But IIRC thats against XDA Rules, so thats probably why you don't find anything about that here.
