Hi.
Is it possible to change mac address on Moto G?
I tried every app on the market, some of them won't change the mac address and some of them won't connect to the router (can't pass authentication).
With rootbrowser I searched my phone for files that have "wifi" in their name, and then searched that file for word "mac" and searched my mac address in that file.
In xtwifi.conf I found the word mac:
# if we should use fake wifi scanner to report injected MAC address
# value 0: (default) we are going to use the real wifi scanner on board.
# value non-zero: we are going to use the injected MAC address
ENABLE_TEST_FAKE_WIFI_SCAM = 0
Any ideas?
It's a hardware address.. You can't change it...

change mac address
I also want to change my mac address of moto E ... Can anybody help
Why would someone wants to change their phones Mac address? Can someone please enlighten us?
Some routers have mac filtering. You can not connect to that router if your mac address is not the same as the saved ones in the router.

But arent you supppsed to be the one to set your mac address in the router to allow your device to be connected?
That's the point, it's not your router

Hello, I know its old, but I managed to change it on my ROOTed Moto G (Kit Kat) for other people...
Its in
Code:
/persist/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin
saved in binary.
View it:
Code:
busybox hexdump -C WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin
You'll see 4 MAC addresses, each increase by one.
Quick Overwrite:
Code:
echo -n -e \\x00\\x00\\x01\\x02\\x01\\x01\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xE1\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xE2\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xE3\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xEE\\xE4\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x00\\x30\\x02 > /persist/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin
You might want to check the starting and ending characters with your output, before you write it.

I can confirm that this works also on Moto E, running Android 4.4 as well as 5.1. Thanks for the tip!
I was not very comfortable with using terminal. This is what I did.
Open the file /persist/WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin in Hex Mode. Some file browsers (eg. X-Plore File Browser) with root capability also supports hex editing. I will recommend keeping a backup, just in case.
The file should contain the MAC address 4 times, incremented by 1. You can check your current MAC address from Settings->WiFi->Advanced
Change all the four MAC present in the file, also incremented by 1. Leave all other hex values unchanged.
That's it!
Also, this is permanent. What I mean to say is that the MAC address remains unchanged after reboot and even after flashing another ROM. So if you want to get back your original MAC, you need to change file manually (the backup might come in handy).
I am using Bluestack 0.9.7.4101 which is already rooted.I want to change its Wifi MAC Address as that of my moblie.So is there any way to change Bluestack Wifi MAC to a specific one,for example,11:22:33:44:55:66.I installed BusyBox and Terminal Emulator,but unable to change Wifi MAC,as it has two MAC address ,so please help to change only the wifi MAC.
bump. Any solution?
I have a Moto E2 3G phone and I have rooted the phone recently. Although I am not able to change the MAC address of the phone. I have already tried changing the WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin file in the persist folder. Also I have using third party apps like BusyBox with Terminal Emulator and MacChanger. Please find a way and reply in the comments below.
Search ascii.txt and using a text editor change the mac of the phone to the required mac.

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
