Hello,
Before android 4.2, it was very easy to change the mac address on a rooted device. After 4.2, I found it very difficult to do so and also subsequently connect to a WPA secured network, receiving the error "WPA: 4-way handshake failed" in logcat. Pry-fi worked for a while, but stopped working on updating to lollipop and is no longer maintained. I also desired the ability to spoof my mac address when connecting to a network without having to swap out saved networks everytime the wifi turned on.
I figured out that the kernel accepts the new mac address into the networking drivers but wpa_supplicant stores the mac address in memory and is not updated when I issue the appropriate busybox command. Killing wpa_supplicant made wifi unusable until it was turned off and on again, which of course resets the kernel-based mac address. The solution I found was to turn wifi off completely, apply the mac address and turn wifi on again (svc wifi disable being more dramatic than a simple ifconfig wlan0 down). Some devices bring the entire network interface down when this happens however, so I also include a bit of code to inject the mac address just before wpa_supplicant starts up.
This app also lets you set a mac address to something of your choosing. It also supports being called through intents, allowing tasker/other app integration. It is also open-source, unlike most of the other apps I have seen recommended. It also reapplies the mac address every time wifi turns on (or randomises it every time wifi is switched off and on again if the option is set).

I have tested this on a Samsung Galaxy S4 running CyanogenMod 12.1. and a HTC One M7 and M9 Let me know if it works for you. It probably won't work on a lot of phones that lie about changing the mac address - please do confirm your mac address has changed manually (e.g. from your router admin panel or even from adb shell ip addr) to make sure it works!
So I hate to sound like an idiot, but in lamens, this allows me to be "random" on a WiFi connection?

If you set both the mac address and the hostname to random (by toggling the buttons that say "User-set"), every time you turn wifi off and on again you should appear as a new entity to a wifi network. (For example, hypothetically if the wifi network happens to limit free internet usage to say 15 minutes, you will obtain a further 15 minutes by hitting update or by re-enabling wifi from your settings)
However, your anonymity may still be affected by the internet traffic your device is sending - think of this as a first step
Thank you for explaining that! downloading
Just getting a force close with my S3, which runs Cyanogenmod 12.1 (Android 5.1)
Already pulled the apk?

Nope, I have just updated the apk to do MAC Spoofing in a different way that should work on more devices. Let me know if it works!
Unfortunately it only force closes on my 5.1 phone. I get a random MAC every time. It would be great to spoof it, to get a 'fixed' MAC address.
Didn't work on my Moto E 2015 (XT1526) Anyways I attached the log file, hope it helps

This thread shows how to channel your SD card through your wireless router, therefore making your SD card accessible from most devices (tested on PC, Android and iOS). Please note that your phone and the device must be connected to the same network.
1. Download and install File Expert (it's free) from the Android Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=xcxin.filexpert&hl=en.
2. Open File Expert and press the "Share" icon at the bottom of the screen.

}
3. Select "Enable WEB Sharing".
The IP and authentication info will be displayed. The URL (which is located in the third line) will be entered in the address bar of the browser in the other device. The username and password will also be required so please remember it ^_^
So on my phone it says "http://192.168.1.102:8080", so I type "http://192.168.1.102:8080" in the browser of another device.
Enter the password and done! You've accessed your phone's SD card from another device.
Please note:
1. This may not work on all devices, ranging from hosting the HTTP server to accessing the SD card from another device.
2. This may not work on all browsers as they may not have the specifications required to access the HTTP server.
3. The username/password can be changed in the File Expert settings or you can COMPLETELY disable any authentication.
3. The user and it's affiliates are NOT responsible for any damage caused physically and/or mentally
There are other apps in the Android Market that have the same function but I just use this. Suggestions are appreciated. Don't forget to 'Thank'
Wow... this rocks.. thank you for this.... God, i love tech... I just sent out a tweet to all
Cheers - very useful - the app came as part of the Gingerburst ROM I installed from Droidzone, so don't even have to install it
Hello!
This would be great, if it would work on my phone. Unfortunately it didn't. I tried it on an HTC Desire powered with MIUI, and after entering the URL in a browser of another android phone (and on a desktop comp), nothing happens. It may be a setting by me tho (probably on the router?), which I didn't find yet.
cheers!
Works great. Excellent app!
I have been using this File Manager App since I got my very first android phone. I don't know why people keep buying and recommending apps that work exactly the same way (or maybe even better for File Expert's case) but cost very high. Duh.
Great find, thanks
this also works using wifi tethering on the 1st mobile to create virtual hotspot and connect 2nd mobile to that hotspot
I tested that on 2 different cyanogenmod 7 devices
This is pretty slick. The current version also offers Bluetooth sharing support over OBEX FTP although that part is rather unstable on my laptop (crashes explorer for some reason). That isn't an issue with the app though. That's a known problem on my laptop that I don't know what's causing it.
I just tried this out - it looks great and the web sharing is incredibly easy to use, thanks!
Installed, and gonna try it tomorrow. I will leave you guys a feedback.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using XDA Premium App
Tried using this but when I connect via either Web sharing or FTP sharing on my computer it just hangs there for a while and says a connection could not be established.
- Both my computer and Xperia X10i are connected to the same Wifi network
- I'm using WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread Rom if that may account for anything
Configuration?

I have never came across this problem. You could try playing with the File Expert settings, enabling/disabling things and getting to a conclusion. It could be a problem with your ROM, your router or the compatibility with the app. I have noticed that the HTTP server closes when I change to another app (even though it says File Expert's still running). You could try using a different app from the market (there are loads), just type 'web sharing' in the Android Market and see what you get
You could try: https://market.android.com/details?id=nextapp.websharing&feature=search_result It has an awesome UI and easy to use
Hey guys,
I want to present you my newest app "Shutdown Start Remote". Like the title says, you can remote shutdown, restart, hibernate and start your PC.
I often watch movies in the evening and control the VLC Media Player with a app. It was really annoying to get up and shutdown the PC after that. I needed a solution for this situation.
Here is a list of the features:
-Supports Windows, Mac and Linux
-Easy setup with network scanner
-Intuitive design
-No installation required (only run a Java application)
-All screen sizes supported
-Possibility to choose between shutdown, restart and hibernate
-Wake on Lan
You can find out more about this app and a detailed instruction on my homepage.

Hi,
I just wanted to let you know, that a new version is out, which has a option to choose a special theme. For example Android 3.x and 4 now can use the Hole themes. I hope you enjoy the feature
Need a program for PC?
Yes, you need a program to shut down the PC. To start a PC you don't need it. It is a small .jar file (java) running in the background.
Looks great, trying it
Thanks Please let me know whether everything works or you have any problems.
Hi. I'm having problems with this app.
I've got the JAR file on my computer. And the app is also picking up my computer when they go to scan it. However when I click on my found device nothing happens. Then around 10-15 second later an option will pop-up saying "Could not find the PC".
Is there a way to fix this?

Same here finds PC but won't connect
nice app, works for me. Some issues/suggestions
-I had to manually enter my IP address for it to even see my PC.
-It notifies me of me using a ad blocker app even though i'm not and never have.
-suggestion: I didn't exactly know how to use the app, you should make a "tutorial" phase first...
I saw the timer, pressed it and it went to 000000 and on my PC a message popped up saying "windows is shutting down"
I think you should put a option there saying something like "Press this to cancel shutdown/restart/hibernation etc."
for people who can't connect:
Instead of searching, press menu and enter the ip manually.
If you don't know your ip, first of all you should be ashamed of yourself, and then give yourself a facepalm
then if you have windows, type cmd in the search and then in the cmdprompt type ipconfig and get the IPv4 or IPv6 ip, the ipv4 is shorter for me.
tried those and still the same result ;[
great app, i do the same thing! can you add a "sleep" function for windows? I find this more useful than shutdown or hibernate.
Hi,
Thank you for the suggestions.
Referring to your problems: if you can't connect although the network scanner found your PC, then your firewall is blocking the connection. The scanner works on another IP address and port than the real connection. So please check your firewall settings.
The network scanner uses following address: 239.1.2.3
The manually inserted IP uses one of the following ports: 57143, 57144, 57145
The final connection uses port 52899 and higher.
@NguyenHuu: No I can't add the sleep function. Windows only has the possibility to shutdown, reboot and hibernate. However you can take a deeper look into the windows settings. It is possible to use the sleep function instead of hibernate. If you see a sleep option in the start menu, then hibernate in my app let's your PC sleep.
@xriderx66: Hm I thought the handling was simple. Isn't the instruction point enough? How would you change it?
Sounds like a neat app. I'd like to check it out but I guess it doesn't support the Droid1.
Definitely won't hold that against you though, my phone is OLD! (But I'm looking forward to an upgrade next month!)
Yes, unfortunately at least Android 2.1 is required.
Hi,
Two weeks ago I've published the new version of the app. I've updated the first post.
really nice app...
can you add a support for dynDNS. I can only insert an IP number.
App worked instantly for me, great app! Thank you for sharing this

Hello everyone!
Yesterday I released my first Android App called Icy Monitor, it helps you monitor your PC using your android device.
Features
Get graphs about your CPU (load, temperature, clock, power), GPU (load, clock, temperature, fan) and system (fans, temperature, voltages).
Customize graph colors to your liking.
Get information about each filesystem and each process running.
Save and monitor multiple computers effortlessly.
Clean, beautiful interface with tablet support.
The app is free, without advertisments and open source!
Downloads
Play Store
Windows Server
Github (for source)
Setup
Download the server application using the link above. Extract all files somewhere and run the application as administrator (otherwise, I am not allowed to read most sensors). An icon should appear at your system tray, right click it and select 'Open Firewall', this will open port 26822 which is used by the app (This only works with Window's Firewall, if you are using something else you must open port 26822 yourself). Now you can connect from the phone app by typing in your computer's IP address followed by ":26822". If you want to access the server through the Internet you will have to setup port forwarding, which is a different procedure for every router so I cannot help you.
If you don't know your IP, open a command line window and write "ipconfig". You should find your IPv4 address there.
More info
For more info, please visit my page or just ask here. Feel free to mail me at any time.
Thanks a lot for trying my app! Any feedback (positive/negative) is extremely appreciated!
Would love to use this with my Linux box

Theoritically, the server could run on Linux with Mono but being a former Linux user I know Mono is not the best option. I am brainstorming this, I hope to be able to support Linux soon.
Thanks for the interest however!
Harmless little bump.
I followed all the instructions then tried setting it up on my device. I was a little confused why it refused to use a domain name. Nonetheless I entered my IP address. Now I get the error "Incompatible server version". Am I doing something wrong?

There was no activity in this thread so I forgot to update the server download link. Try this version. Sorry for the trouble.
Also it SHOULD accept domain names, it worked with mine (looks like this: something.dyndns.info). Maybe it's a port forwarding issue?

Everything works now, thanks! Once I installed the new server version I was able to connect via IP and domain. Before the domain said it couldnt connect and the IP said incompatible.
This is a very handy app for on the go.

interceptor passwords
Hi, I'm rooted, have busy box, and i have interceptor. I can locate other computers and devices on my own home wifi and use many of the tools included on the devices. Arp poison works, cookie works, screen shots works. However, i have 2 questions. Will interceptor read information if someone is using the Facebook app as opposed to the browser? And also, interceptor is advertised as having password recovery ability but where exactly are the passwords? I even tried it on myself and logged into several sites using interceptor showed the address, screen shots, pcap files (i guess) but where do i find the passwords? Thanks, great app,

Issue scanning devices
Hi,
I have a rooted android 5.1.1 with BusyBox installed. I installed Intercept-ng and the app does not show any devices when scanned. It did show the gateway once and when I scanned again, even that disappeared.
Although, I can see that my antivirus on my PC blocks the port scan. I haven't tried running the scan on any other network, just my home network.
Just to check, when I scanned my wifi with the app Network Scanner and it detects all the devices on the network (around 7 devices).
What could be the issue here? Any help would be appreciated.

So I accessed the app file 'hostlist' via adb shell and can see all the devices listed there but I can't see those devices on the app interface.
I also tried reinstalling SuperSU, BusyBox Pro and Intercept-ng. No luck

Can you logcat ??
Hmmm. I uninstalled it immediately. There's no status of what it's doing and all I see are ads.
I'm sure there is some power under the covers, but it would help to provide a settings screen first where the user can disable ads and maybe a description of what will happen while it communicates with the router.
I don't get it why someone needs such an app especially because you can a) Open your Router GUi via Browser or b) use the apps which are provided directly from your Router manufracture.
Thanks for the effort and app and everything but I have many doubts especially when it comes to security, because you're only a single developer, there is no source code and not really an explanation about everything what the app exactly does.

And here i thought i was the only one thinking the same thing ? If only xda could be how it was in the past... No offence to OP or the apk he promotes but these days theres more apsks popping up faster than cockroaches dissapearing in the light ?.... Good luck
At this stage you should change name of this app to "full screen advertisement player".
Could not even check what this app is about as full screen apps have been popping out all the time.

I don't believe that people are necessarily saying that your app is a "hack" but it's more of an issue of can others access your app, or can other apps access your app, and ads inside of an application that does things like accessing your routers GUI isn't acceptable because ads already track and report back as much information as they possibly can, and it's not secure at all to see ads that are all over the gateway to and from the internet. If an app on our device can gain access to your app, or if someone from outside of the network is able to gain access to our router, then they could potentially have access to the entire network, including every device connected via wireless or wired, doing massive amounts of damage, or simply compromise the network to use it as a part of a botnet.
