Hello,
I have encountered a problem I can't solve myself so I would really welcome any form of help.
There is a wi-fi network that I have remembered on my phone, however, I really can't remember the password, so I can't connect on in with my lap-top computer. I can't reset the router to its default settings or to log in to the router and look for the password, it's really impossible.
So the thing I want is, how can I get the wi-fi passwords from my phone and get the password I need?
I know that with rooted device, this wouldn't be a problem, I tried to get wifi passwords with rooted devices and it was pretty easy, but that's not this case.
I have the wifi remembered only in this device which isn't rooted and I didn't find a way to get the password I need.
Also, I haven't found way to temp. root the device or to root the device without losing the passwords.
Since it's not some v10a version or anything similiar, it can't be rooted by an application // according to my research
Specifications:
Model number: LG-P500
Android version: 2.3.3
Kernel version: 2.6.35.10-perf [email protected] #1
Build number: GINGERBREAD
Software version: LG-P500-20a
If you could help me, I would be very, very glad since it's really very, very important for me, thanks for any tip
I do not know any solution if you do not have root acces
but if you have, use any explorer with su permisions (root explorer, root browser, es file explorer): navigate to the root directory /data/misc/wifi and open the document wpa_supplicant.conf
Solved
I decided to root my device after all and then it was really a piece of cake, have all my passwords now stored in my PC.
Would be nice if some mod locked this topic, thanks
Hello guys,
I am trying to change MAC of my Lenovo AG3300GV tablet [Android 4.4.2]
I rooted it with kingoroot for windows and using kingo SuperUser.
I tried many apps like mac adress ghost, wifi mac changer but none of them did work.
I used busybox ifconfig commands also.
No luck !!!
When I was using Galaxy Y [Android 2.3.8], I changed mac temporarily by changing nvram.info, mac.info files in root files.
But since KitKat 4.4.2 very complex, I was wondering editing "address" file in "/sys/class/ieee80211/phy0/device/net/wlan0" will change mac ? [Only this file contain mac in plain text]
I tried editing the file with Wifi ON&OFF conditions using ES Explorer, Terminal vim, QEdit etc even by changing read/write permission and owner.
None of these worked.
Hope some of you could help me....
Thank you...

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
MAC adress cannot be changed it's serial number which is embedded into the Phone hardware....
It could maybe be hidden but changed is not possible.
The same thing is appliable for PCs

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!

@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

Nexus 5 android 6.0.1
Build number MOB30M
I've had some wifi issues these past few days (where the wifi radio didn't turn on, it was stuck in a "turning on" loop) and a missing wifi MAC address. After testing whatever I could on a stock phone (aeroplane mode, factory resets, you have it) I decided to root it. I read around and found someone claiming that deleting the /persist/wifi foldercould fix my issues. I can't post a link but it was a post on thinkoholic.
I downloaded Nexus Root Tolkit and set out to root my phone. I have no experience with rooting, but with a YouTube guide along with the program popups it seemed easy enough. I did the full driver installation, unlocked the bootloader and then rooted the phone. NRT crashed on me during the rooting process, IIRC while I was at the slider-part on my phone (TWRP?) to confirm a read-only mode or read/write. I restarted the rooting process and the phone booted up alright. I've installed root checker and a terminal window app which both say the phone is correctly rooted, but when I try navigating the /root folders in various explorers/file managers (ES File Explorer, Root Browser), the folder shows up as empty.
Am I looking in the wrong spot for a /persist/wifi folder?
Edit: I managed to find the folders I needed, deleted contents of both /persist/wifi and /data/misc/wifi but to no avail. Still no new MAC address (it just shows 02:00:00:00:00:00) and the problems remain. Even though I'm in aeroplane mode the green loading stripe beneath Wi-Fi settings (in the settings menu) continues going even when I've turned the wifi radio off. Hardware issue maybe?
