I use WEP encryption,
64bit encryption strength,
network authentication: open
The most important part, specify your MAC address in Wireless - Mac filter of your modem/ router and select allow.
You can check your MAC address for phone by browsing to Menu> About phone> Status>WI-Fi MAC address.
Restart your modem and scan wifi from phone when you see SSID select it and enter the 64 bit assigned key.
Thats all. All the best.

thanks very much...

Trip, do not use WEP encryption in this day and age, one can crack it with widely available tools in mere seconds. I'm using WPA2-PSK with AES encryption (D-Link DIR-655) on my phone (XXKPH firmware) just fine. If there's a problem it might be one or combinations of the following:
. Firmware issue
. Incompatibilities between wireless access point and your phone

What firmware did you flash? I have some problems with the Gingerbread versions of Android. If you flashed XXKPH or JPKP5 try to connect to your router and ping your router ip and some external ip (like google DNS 8.8.8.8). If your router pings well and you have about 70÷80% lost packets while pinging external IP. you have the same problem as mine. To solve it you can:
1. flash Froyo
2. change your WiFi router (I've tested 3 routers and I have problems only with 1)

I am on ddkf1 and have this problem from starting. However it is better than ddkb2.
In my room wifi in sl works at will as it will connect/not connect/disconnect at it's discretion. And my laptop n other nokia phone works without any issue.
Should I update to xxkb3/kph or show it at the service centre.
Please suggest as it's driving me crazy now

Don't update id you want to sure it to three service center. Also, try nagging the phone forget the wi fi connection and set the password again. This worked for me!

[Q] unable to connect to VPN on ICS 4.0.3 Nexus S i9023

I have updated my 9023 to ICS 4.0.3 manually twice, but each time I was unable to connect to VPN, I have tried both PPTP and L2TP/IPSec PSK which works well on PC or GB2.3.6.
It shows timeout or unsuccessful.
I noticed that tha aLogCat record this for several lines(when connecting via L2TP/IPSec PSK):
D/mtpd (2682): Timeout ->Sending SCCRQ
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and this leads to "Timeout" error
my baseband version is I9023XXKI1
build number is IML74K
hope it could be solved. and if more logs are needed, please let me know.

Same issue on Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.2
Baseband: I515.09 V.EK05 / I515.EK02
Kernel: 3.0.8-gaaa2611
Build #: ICL53F
Looking at the gateway logs, Phase 1 negotiation completes, then receives nothing more from the phone to complete Phase 2.

Same here, am really disappointed as it worked really well on GB2.3.6
Why do they fix something then take it away? Idiots

I solve the PPTP problem by changing the permission of \etc\ppp\ip-up-vpn to 777 (all option is checked). but L2TP remains annoying.

[MTK][TOOL][APP] MTK 0x10 NVRAM FIX

Hello guys,
After updating my app MTKTransfROM, I'm here to introduce you my new simple little app that fix the most famous MTK WiFi Bug for who change Custom ROM everyday the NVRAM WARNING: Err = 0x10.
It is a label that appear on your WiFi Networks indicating you a MAC NVRAM error. It's there due to a /data reset that hasn't been correctly restored by your new ROM.
As I'm a fanatic of Custom ROM, It is pretty annoying to fix it every time by entering Engineer Mode, Take WiFi MAC, put it in a special menu, bla bla bla...
So I created an app which do it in milliseconds. It's really little app and doesn't require any permission, IT ONLY REQUIRE ROOT ACCESS to write to NVRam Folder.
Here's the link: Play Store
It's AD FREE, but if you want to support my work and buy me a beer or a pizza ( I'm Italian ) here's the donation link: DONATION
Thanks for Reading

can you send it to me？i cannot download form googleplay，because i come from china
my email is [email protected]，thanks

Thanks man, that helps!

I lost my 5ghz band after using this app
Please update this app to support 5ghz band also
I had to restore the NVDATA to make it work again

Please I am having NVRAM WARNING ERR =0X02 after using this app. How do I fix that please cos it showing up on my wifi setting

nvram warning err 0x02
@wesleyel did you already find a solution?
I'm facing this error on my Xperia XA Ultra (F3211) after I tried to set a new wifi mac address by editing the WIFI file in the /data/nvram directory because I first had nvram warning err 0x10 any changing mac addresses after every reboot.
The wifi mac address only seems to changes if the mac address starts with 00.
Btw: is there any possibility to read my original wifi mac address? All tested tools only show me 20:00:00:00:00:00 :/
Best regards

Yes I was able to find a solution after a loads of research.
I used an app called chamelemac. You can download it for free on playstore.
Hope it helps you too.
Also am not sure if you can retrieve your old wifi mac except you have an nvram backup or maybe it's written on your phone pack which am not too sure.

Thanks for your reply @wesleyel
Unfortunately the app does not support my device so I tried another one but it did not fix this issue.. So I'll go on searching the internet and trying to find another solution.
Best regards

Hi! I'm typing from a chuwi hi9, equipperd with a MTK8173. I Also had this nvram warig ecc... But, after i've run the app andò reboot the tablet, unfortunately, it don't detective anymore my 5ghz WiFi network, only the 2,4.
How is this possibile?

My ip address and wifi mac address is constantly changing with every reboot. Help.

Hey guys,
So, I recently got my phone flashed due to some errors and now there's another problem with my mac id and ip id. It changes after every phone reboot or wifi on/off. I even tried resetting but it was all in vain. Consequently, I'm having a tough time connecting to my ISP, since it's bound to a specific mac address.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Try to downgrade your device software

I am pretty sure that your NVRAM partition is corrupted (this is where the MAC adress is stored). I haven't found yet a solution to fix this for our device...

Refer to this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/sparkle-v/help/karbonn-sparkle-nvram-wi-fi-mac-imei-t3362687as the NVRAM is erased because you upgraded the firmware with the Format All + Download option that erased all of your mobile data.

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.
