i don't know really... root the phone, use root explorer, get in the EFS folder look for the bluetooth and wifi file, change value, save, reboot... thats all... not useful after all

Not useless , it's few steps more to be more invisible or anonymous
Why we use vpn or proxies
Why we spoof our gps locations
Why we spoof macadress in public networks
Why sometime we avoid to use the same cell phone when changing sim card
Why encryption
Why firewalls
Why serial numbers
Why android or google unique id
Just imagine

Yea .mac.info you can't just edit it , its custom kernel and other flashable .img

Is there a way to change the MAC without custom kernel just with root?

No internet access even after factory reset

My friend just gave my brother her Optimus V and according to her a few days ago it stopped getting WiFi access. She had it activated, but won Iphones. He says it was just working on our friends secure network. At our house it connects to WiFi, but has no internet access. I did a reset. Didn't change. Got a new ROM, changed the SD card, wiped data, cache, dalvick, installed new ROM and gaps. Still no internet access. Its an open WiFi which my computer and phone are working fine on

Does it work properly when connected to some other wifi network?
Yes. It works on all others except this one. But everything else works on still. And it used to work on it. Its not our own. Its one we pick up around.

So, do you have access to the router for the problematic wifi network?

Nope. I don't know who's it is but its our main internet connection. And if I had not been miss informed that it did work on others except this one I might not have bothered anyone with it. But if anyone else can figure it out it would still be help full. Every other device can connect to it and this one used to. And it can connect to any other network

Ok, so if you've deleted cache and all that, and you deleted & re-added the network, and even reflashed a ROM and it still doesn't work, I'd say the next step is the router, which you (apparently) don't have access to. I would like to reset the router, and even check its settings, ideally.
Have you tried a different ROM, or flashing back to stock?
Use this file to fix the issue!

I wouldn't flash that oldbbfix.zip. Your issue is a wifi one, and that file may make you lose cell signal.
Well luckily we don't have to worry about signal just Wi-Fi. Still no go yet. I'm gonna hopefully access the router. Me and my friend did it once

I would love to use this but I am having an issue somewhere. I've tried downloading on my Mac, Safari, Chrome and on device. Renamed it exactly to SamsungIME.apk placed in system/app and set permissions rw/r/r and on reboot the Samsung keyboard is just gone completely. Any advice? Something simple I'm missing I'm sure.
Same issue I am having

Not for 100% of the time. They made immersive apps but that's it. Please read before posting ignorant comments.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
On the N4 it was possible with:
Go to system/build.prop/ and add the following line at the end of the build.prop file: qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Reboot.
To re-enable set 0 to 1 and reboot
Don`t know if this will also work on the N5, need root off course.

How are you supposed to control your phone without the capacitive buttons..that nexus lacks...how easy it is in case of pie controls to swipe to get menu???

Haven't tested it on the Nexus 5 yet, but with my old GNEX I used the Xposed framework with the GravityBox module which offers this functionality (hide nav bar and use pie controls).

Yes, it does. I did this on both of my N5s and used PieControl.
PieControl works OK but I prefer the GMD app on my N4 though. Waiting for the dev to enable it on the N5.

You need root to write to build.prop since you need to mount /system as R/W.

Root access -enables- you to mount /system as R/W. It does not mean every file explorer app does so 'on the fly'. First make sure /system is mounted as R/W, then edit build.prop.

After ota keeps saying must restart device

Ummm thanks for the kind words regarding a kernel I make in my free time without owning this device?
No, it's not my kernel making things "crazy." What you're experiencing has to do with "ItsOn" and since I use original N920P source, and ramdisk, it mounts the carrier partition and the system loads itson from there.You can remedy this simply by using a root explorer to navigate to /carrier and remove itson related things.
Please don't blame my kernel and spread rumors if you don't understand what's happening.
