Hello, I have a Runbo X5 with the same software configuration, and don't experience this problem.
One option would be to contact the vendor for support, another might be to install some terminal emulator, and see if you can use the interface using standard linux commands (iwconfig, ... ). If this is a hardware issue, I'm affraid only the first option will do...
Hope this helps
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've been looking for a working MAC spoofer solution (app/mod/patch) for a test phone running Android Marshmallow but I didn't find anything that works.
currently the test device is a LG G3 running fulmics ROM 5.0 (based on Android marshmallow / LG 30F), but it seems the matter is rather android 6.x related.
The Aim is to change/spoof temporarily or permanently the hardware MAC address of the internal network adapter (eth0, but mainly wlan0).
So there are a lot of apps out there in the market which claim to do exactly that. I tried many of them, but nothing works as intended.
To name a few of them:
- Wifi Mac Changer
- ChameleMAC
- Mac Address Ghost
- MacChanger
- MacSpoofer
- many more tested
- Phone ID Changer / Device ID Changer app/module for xposed
even the most promising one:
- Pry-Fi by chainfire
does not work, it just crashes while trying to spoof.
all of them claim to change the mac, but it's not working on this device or general on an android 6.x version.
either they crash or they fail in spoofing.
so I tried to spoof the MAC manually in a Terminal with BusyBox installed and a command like:
busybox ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55, checked if it worked with iplink cmd and it did. But when I try to connect to my access point, I can't join the wifi network it always neglects my pw. when I turn wifi on/off, the MAC gets reset to original hardware MAC and I can again connect to my wifi AP.
So even when trying to spoof the MAC manually it doesn't work.
And I don't know if it is a problem with Android 6.x, the device itself or the ROM i used.
Does anybody else have a working mac spoofer solution for an Android 6.x version smartphone or have an idea how to this working?
Did you also try connecting to an open network after the busybox method ? I read somewhere the pw issue was only when connecting to secured networks.
Other than that ... I'm also looking for a reliable solution. No luck so far.
Also , you might want to try / read http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-network-ghost-mac-hostname-spoofer-t3145866
Is explains why the busybox method fails with WPA networks.
thanx for the link. It was interesting.
unfortunately the app doesn't work either. so we still have no working solution or app that does spoof the mac on marshmallow devices.
After Rooting my sony Xperia Z and got root access and tried to change my mac address with the traditional way ( busybox and terminal emulator ) and with mac address applications too. Everytime it says that my mac address have been changed i can't connect to my wifi network again i don't know why, it says : " Authentication problem " can someone help pleaseeee i have 6.0.1 Android.
thanks in advance
Hi !
I don`t really understand why did you changed the mac address and also I am concerned about how successful this attempt was
In order to do that there`s a set of permissions to be acquired , if you don`t know how to do it , you better restore to default
You can have a look at this thread
Good luck !
