Hello everybody!
I have managed to change the Wi-Fi MAC address of my device and now I share this technique with you. With this method, you can change your address permanently!
What is a MAC address?
A Media Access Control address (MAC address) is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications on the physical network segment. It may also be known as a burned-in address, an Ethernet hardware address (EHA), hardware address or physical address. (Source: Wikipedia)
Why would somebody change his/her MAC address?
- To access the internet where it is restricted to particular addresses.
- To hide his/her illegal activity. (Though this is not effective enough since the Android system sends product information and a lot of other things to the Google servers and I'm sure that previous IP addresses could be searched for if somebody does something really nasty.)
Is it legal to change the MAC address?
As far as I know, it is. However, I firmly discourage you on doing anything illegal with changed/unchanged MAC.
Let's do it!
What do you need?
- A rooted device.
- A kernel with MAC address changing support. (I include my ICS kernel (version 3.1.10) for those who want to try it out and the method of implementing it into other custom kernels.)
- A file manager that can explore the root filesystem.
How does this exactly work?
Normally, the Wi-Fi driver gets the MAC address from the built-in chip then it writes the address to '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' and '/data/.mac.info'. This is the original burned-in address. This cannot be changed with software modifications, but only by soldering off the chip from the motherboard and rewriting its contents. Our Wi-Fi device is a Broadcom BCM4330. It has very good built-in features and the open source driver can be found in our kernel sources.
There are two different options in the driver (READ_MACADDR and RDWR_MACADDR (actually, there is a WRITE_MACADDR option too, which stands for creating the two files I have mentioned before)), which enable us changing the address. I tested both and found READ_MACADDR better. By enabling it in the kernel, you get some options regarding MAC changing.
Before you change your MAC address in any way, turn off Wi-Fi! I recommend writing down your original address somewhere (just to be extra secured). You can always return to your original one using the second method (read further) or by flashing a kernel that doesn't have the patch.
- If you flash a patched kernel and delete the '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' file, the driver will generate (!!) a custom MAC address based on some predefined rules (The first 24 bits are common in all generated addresses.).
- Of course you can set your own custom MAC address. Do this by editing the '/efs/wifi/.mac.info' file with a file manager. If you change it to an incorrect address, the system will automatically use the original (burned-in) MAC.
For kernel developers who want to enable this:
Find '#define WRITE_MACADDR' after '#ifdef CONFIG_MACH_N1' in 'drivers/net/wireless/bcmdhd/src/dhd/sys/dhd_sec_feature.h' and insert '#define READ_MACADDR' after that line. This is for ICS kernels (version 3.1.10), but the patch must work on GB ones too. You just have to insert the define somewhere else (I didn't look into this.).
(I count on you guys in implementing this! )
I attach my prebuilt (secure, MMC_ERASE_CAP disabled) kernel for trying out this feature. It is an ICS kernel (version 3.1.10).
Every custom modification to devices have risks. Use this at your own risk!
Have fun and enjoy!
Thanks!
Just tried patching the kernel, it works! So, this feature will be included in my next kernel.
Before flashing the patched kernel, when I turn off wifi, delete .mac.info file, re-enable wifi, the MAC address is not changed.
However, after flashing the patched kernel, after I turn off wifi, delete .mac.info file and re-enable wifi, the MAC address is changed!
Thanks very much for the useful guideline from Adam77Root :good:
Hey bro can u explain this in a more simpler manner...I'm a newbie here and i need this! bcuz my brother alwayz blocks my wifi mac address so i cannot access wifi. I hav a rooted Samsung galaxy ace s5830 using cm 10.1 rc4......thanks in advance!:good:

If kernel supports only we change the WIFI MAC Address, we can not use it on all the kernels...

I have looked into the sources of your Wi-Fi driver (the same BCMDHD) and it seems it doesn't support it. Maybe this is a Samsung-only feature.
any suggestion...?

I think your best bet would be the galaxy ace forums. You could search if there's an existing kernel with this functionality or else you could direct one of the kernel developers there to have a look at this thread.
I'm a beginner, plz explain in detail such that I can do it.

Hello experts,
since a long time I'm trying to fix my mutating MAC on a Huawei U8860 (so called Honor).
Your Thread gives me new hope. Atm I'm running a custom rom (baidu v.5, ROM 43) on my device.
Do you think, it's possible to insert the phrase into the kernel-source to make the MAC fix again? The wlan-chip is nearly the same as in your tested device (bcm4329).
What else do I have to patch? Is it necessary to write the MAC (seen on the label under battery) into any config-file?
I apprecheate your help - thanx for reading...
Works on Samsung S4 mini with CM 11, however I need to reboot after changing .mac.cob even when deleting .mac.info (which does not automaticly returns), as turning off/on WiFi isn't enough.
I guess the READ_MACADDR option is missing, and at one point I'd like to make my own CM modification. Or is there a more simple solution?
I'm new here..

I want to change my mac address to another one that i want
Can you tell me how can I do it?

Just over a year ago, I asked you a solution for my Galaxy S2, and you found me a solution thanks to this post on the Galaxy S2 forum.

Details of how to connect to PC, upgrade to JB and rooting with Play Store in posts #3 and #4.
I came across this tablet during the holiday season sale at P C Richard and Son (don't see them carrying it anymore). Found it to be a great deal for 59.99 USD (+tax) since it looks like it has a lot of potential for so cheap a tablet.
The one I am currently playing around with is the last of the 5 that I had picked up as gifts for others (and this one will be reaching the recipient soon).
When searching the web for more info, could practically find none. Most of the stuff I saw online was desperate queries of folks struggling with this model - Proscan PLT7035-B from Curtis Intl..
I love the Jelly Bean on my Nexus 7 and the Note II - and so was just trying to put together a sort of guide of the great work you folks have been doing here at XDA that will immensely help those who seek them for this particular make/model.

In the next couple of posts, will try my best to explain in detail the steps that I took to upgrade my tablet from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.1 and successfully root as well as have CWM installed along with Google Play store.

Now before we get into details about flashing etc. link below is a nice "guide" article about the various terminologies like what is a Bootloader, custom ROM, Kernel, CWM, Firmware, Flashing, ADB, Root etc.

Click on the above link - a must read for newbies.
Now the Statutory warning: Follow all the remaining steps in this thread at your own risk. It worked fine for me - so neither the forum or me are liable in any sort of way for any damages whatsoever that you may bring upon yourself.
Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Update:
Proscan Model Number PLT7035-B has it on their official site:
http://proscanvideo.com/item.asp?itemnmbr=PLT7035-B
Firmware:
-------------

As always - statutory warning - neither me nor the forum are liable for any damages to your tablet - do it at your own risk - no one other than you alone is liable for any damages arising from the usage of this guide.
How to upgrade the firmware after downloading it from above link:
Get the RKBatchTool
First of all - ensure that your tablet is FULLY charged.
Unzip the RKBatchTool v1.5 to your desktop
Turn off the tablet and disconnect from the PC.
Now press the Volume Up (+) button and keep holding it down.
Here comes the slightly tricky maneuver - you have to keep pressing the volume UP (+) button and connect at the USB at same time in to the PC. The tablet will power up on it's own but the screen will remain blank
Once the PC starts searching for the driver, you can release the volume button.
Windows will prompt you for drivers for "RK29 device".
Use appropriate drivers from the driver folder.
Have attached some pictures collected from the web (it is just to give a visual idea as an aid to the walk through and may not be detailed nor accurate in every aspect since some of them are from instructions for other devices).
Run the RKBatchTool v1.5.
Click on first button at the left bottom end of the tool screen - this is a toggle for Chinese/English versions.
In the "FW Path" load the update.img file by clicking on the top right side button with the three ... dots
The following will appear in the status box after the "connected devices" box turns green.
Loading firmware...
Loading firmware Finished.
I clicked "Upgrade" (even though the picture says restore).
Your previously green colored box of "connected devices" will now keep flashing in yellow.
Sit back and have fun watching the status box - will probably take a couple of minutes for the whole process and verification.
When it is all done with - the tablet will reboot.
Remember that the first boot would take a longer time than usual powering up time - so just be patient.
All the best.

Attached below are the pics from Proscan site Powerpoint.
I have successfully rooted it twice and installed Play Store (once with ICS and now with JB)
First time it was with help of amjtech thread [Tutorial] Proscan PLT-7035-PL Root and install GAPPS
Now I tried the [RK29][TOOL] Root RK29 Tab Toolkit since the sdk was already installed.
Very simple and super effective rooting process.:good:
The first time when I ran in to driver installation issues it was pertaining to permissions.
Found work-arounds elsewhere and also had issues with the installing google playstore.
Hence used the Vending 3.9.16.apk from thread [Share] Google Play 3.10.10 [Updated 14.12.12] to resolve it.
Installing CWM was also a breeze - thanks to the great work of fun_ . It is a simple process if you follow his guidelines :good:
He has been very kind to upload an exclusive CWM-based Recovery image for ProScan PLT7035-B (ext4)
Click above link to d/l it and follow installation instructions
--------------------------------------
Precautionary measure - the following is just in case something goes wrong and you want to revert back (and also to have a copy of original images) :
I used the romdump technique and following Oma's suggestion have created the kernel, boot, recovery and system images in SD card for ICS 4.0.4 of Proscan PLT7035-B
http://www.4shared.com/zip/UtCs-yCE/Proscan_PLT7035-B.html
Above link upload to 4share is exclusively for the Proscan PLT7035-B (ICS 4.0.4) and hopefully has not been corrupted because my internet connection has been flubbing for past few days.
Have fun and remember to use caution because you alone are responsible if you brick your device.
Cheers
yes ok

Tried the CrewRKTablets_RK29_Loox_CM10.1_4.2.1_20130113.7z along with CrewRKTablets_Format NAND.zip with the custom kernel made by him on his ICS thread.
Am very happy to say it is working great so far except for the spotty wi-fi at times and also screen rotation (needs sensor/rotation calibration).
Please remember that it is still a test build.
Cheers.

But you can do all the rooting and install CWM along with playstore as mentioned in post 4 since fun_ has a generic CWM on his site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37221496&postcount=4
Would also appreciate it if you could kindly do a romdump of your 7035-PL and host the Boot, Recovery And System Partition Images to help people like capfl2k5 whose post from another forum is quote above.
Also try requesting Oma for a suitable kernel in his JB custom rom thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903745 and you will be all set. I really like that rom he has built.:good:
And then you could also try the CM 10.1 with that same kernel

p6800 problem flashing Slimrom, Carbon, AOSB from PacRom milestone.1.release
Hey Everyone,
Noob here, been using Daniel_HK's Pac Rom as a daily for almost a year now, happy happy, but now I wanted to try Slimrom, smaller footprint, easier on RAM, maybe. Problem is, I can't get latest Slimrom, Carbon, or AOSB to flash with either CWM-6.0.3.0 or CWM-6.0.4.5. Just wondering what kind of diagnostic information to provide and if anyone can offer me some help. I have experience with Odin (took a stock p1000 through Overcome and CM9) and have tried CWM flash and Mobile Odin on the P6800. I try Factory Reset/Wipe Cache/Wipe Dalvik, flash rom, and then try reboot, also try all Wipes, then reboot, try Format System as suggests in the Slimrom FAQ. Not sure what my next step is, really want to try Slimrom or Carbon or OMNI. Any help is greatly appreciated. Big thanks to Daniel_HK and everyone who keeps our beloved P6800 alive.

cant find the ZTE970 kernel in that thread
I have CWM and the latest custom FW (1.3) and have done the repartitioning in the ZTE 970, but now it doesn't see the external SD card.
In the thread it says:
Question: After installing Android 4.1 based ROMs, I'm not able to access sdcard anymore, even though it is accessible via CWM recovery.
Answer: Due to hardware differences between models, the included kernel is not compatible. The alternative is to flash the latest V970 kernel compiled by @superdragonpt, which can be found here.
Well, I went there, and I cant find that kernel posted anywhere. The first 3 posts are empty.
I pressed thanks, but still nothing.
Am I such a noob? What am I doing wrong?
I just want to be able to see that microSD card.
Can someone help me and tell me where is that kernel?
Thx.
Hi
Some nasty things ocurred on my xda threads and GitHub.
Currently im in The process of re-uploading all my files
Tomorow all kernel versions will be up ( i hope)
Offtopic: we got kitkat running on our device ( still on alpha /beta States)
/offtopic
Regards.
thanks.
I found a solution doing the following:
I downloaded the above mentioned 1.2 zip file, put it in the microSD and flashed it from CWM.
Then the phone stuck in a boot loop with the 4 colored circles dancing around.
I then reflashed the ROM I mentioned (the last 1.3 custom ROM that I got from this thread),
and not only did the phone work again ok, but it still holds the 2.49 internal memory partition AND it sees the microSD now !!!
I am too noob to explain this, but works just fine for me.

Adb usb debugging enabled
Hi thanks for your post.
My phone have a broken blank screen, is rooted BUT when the screen crash the usb debugging was disabled.
I connected on bootloader-fastboot and the adb is enabled by default but with no root grants (' ._.) and i cant edit build.prop or default.prop i'm stuck with that
i developed a software that allow me to control my device from pc using adb but its useless without the usb debugging.
so, does you custom ROM has usb debugging enabled by default.?
thanks?

Bluetooth failure
Bgcngm good afternoon, my ZTE 970M Bluetooth is not connected to New Version V1.5 ELM327 OBD2 OBDII Bluetooth Car Diagnostic Interface Scanner, you can help me, thanks
Hello,
I need your help guys.
I installed ubuntu on my Asus T100 TAF using the magic stick http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...opment/live-asus-t100-ta-magic-stick-t3091481
Grub and all the booting stuff is ok however.
Wifi is not Working !!!
After looking through this google+ community https://plus.google.com/communities/117853703024346186936
Kernel 4.1 was posted through the community and I installed it hoping my Wifi would work. Nothing. Not working
After, I saw that someone with the same computer than mine posted a Kernel version that would make wifi work.
Here's the link to the github: https://github.com/pinkflozd/T100TAF_kernel/
The thing is that I have absolutely no clue how to install this. It's an uncompiled kernel.Could you please assist me on the subject ?!
More info:
Before arriving to that point, I tried installing brcmfmac43241b4-sdio.txt and brcmfmac43241b4-sdio.bin according to https://linuxnorth.wordpress.com/2014/08/28/establishing-wi-fi-connectivity-on-the-t100/
But, no sign of wifi connection
According to someone on the google+ community, the right driver for my computer is brcmfmac43340.bin, but I have no clue on how to find the .txt(nvram file)
Also, sound is not working but the previously posted uncompiled kernel apparently fixes all the previously mentioned problems.
Heres the actual Google+ Posting of the kernel version for my asus t100taf, its the second post.https://plus.google.com/112460475763080321634/posts
All help would be appreciated. thank you very much !!
