my mac address changes every time i reboot my phone. wifi at my home is mac filtered. so need to get this fixed. please help. how do i do it?
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. That's weird, your mac address should not change. Are you sure you don't have some app that's changing it? Or possible a virus. If I had that and couldn't figure it out is a flash the stock firmware and start over. That'll clean up any bad apps or virus.

need help here, does anyone here knows how to change change the mac address of wifi.?
the wifi mac addreess of my su760 has change after upgrading to ICS. then after reverting back to gingerbread, it changed again, good thing i write down the original mac address but i don't know how to change it permanently.
hope someone could advice.
The information is kept in mmcblk0p3, you'll have to dump it, find the current mac address using a hex editor and overwrite it with your original mac address then dd it back.

Pandaball, does your Wi-Fi and Bluetooth happen to still work on your p920? Either way could you possibly pm me a dump of your mmcblk0p3? I need to try to get my Wi-Fi and Bluetooth working again.

Hey, I've manage to change my MAC address from 00000 to it's original MAC address using modem AT commands in Tutty.
Forenote: I believe I am in the correct forums section but If I am not, please redirect me. Thanks.
My phone is rooted. I have kingroot installed.
I am trying to spoof my mac address on my android for wifi. I have downloaded just about every app on the Playstore that has to do with automatic MAC spoofing/changing. I have gotten two apps to work. The app "MacSpoofer" (and another app I cannot remember) that have appeared to change my mac address, but when I try and use the internet I cannot connect to anything.
It says I have correctly spoofed my mac, and it displays two mac addresses; my original mac address, and then below it, it shows the new mac address that it has given me to use, but when I try to connect to the internet on the wifi it cannot connect to anything.
If anyone has a solution to my problem or another app I could use from the playstore that would work with my phone, or a guide I'd appreciate it.
Hi,
Here is the section for your device, http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-core-prime
You could ask there for help. My guess though, is that since you rooted with kingroot, you still have a write protected system, and therefore can't accomplish this. Just a guess though, as I don't know about your specif device. The folks in the section above do though.
Maybe this could help too, http://www.xda-developers.com/spoof-your-mac-address-the-easy-way/
Good luck!

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.
I have a tablet allwiner a33. After I receive a virus that I cant to delete becuse it has copied into system/data, I deceided to download an upgrade and I have make a full formating. After it I receive a tablet without imei, and without mac on wifi and Bt. So what to do if I want to set a new mac on wifi, because without it wifi doesnt work?

This doesn't work. Any of changers doesnt work. I even tried changing it with terminal. It seems like nvram is somehow hardcoded in the device
i could not find any solution either. Indeed i have lost my imei numbers during rooting my device. now i can not use my device. Can anyone provide his backup files NVRAM/NVDATA etc for me. Thanks in advance
