[Q] change/spoof mac address - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi... i've been looking for a way to spoof my s2's mac address... i have seen ways to do this via terminal or editing a file... unfortunately, im not good at this... i saw this application ChangeMac v0.9 (http://code.google.com/p/diewland-quick-code/downloads/detail?name=ChangeMac.v.0.9.apk)... having problems making it work... can someone help? thanks!

This is not the site to ask about spoofing a MAC address. Mods will close this thread when Europe/Eastern US wakes up later. Just sayin.

but isnt that legal
we can change pc(ethernet) mac address why not this

this is legal where i live... mods, if this is not allowed, please close the thread... thanks!

Bit of a grey area to be honest....it's not like changing your IMEI or something like that....

I have wiped my WiFi MAC Address before had to add it back into the NV_data.bin myself.

Network Proxy Settings

Currently I need to use my device on an enterprise network (peap wifi) and the only way to access wan or the internet is to use their proxy.
I need to use the proxy for http but cannot find anywhere to enter the proxy information, I have tried various apps from market but all have failed. Is there a way to access proxy settings? I'm sure the setting is there but I can't find a way to access it.
What do you guys use?

That just talks about 802.1x/peap. That already works on Android 2.2. (In fact it has worked since Android 1.0's wpa_supplicant, but they didn't expose it in the Android UI till 2.0 I think.) Here's a site with a bunch of proxy options, have you tried them already?

Yes I have tried that site with no luck, below are the ones listed on that site.
TransProxy: Not found on market, found it on sourceforge but it looks just a linux binary, not an apk. Is this still usable on android?
ASProxy: $5 fee, no free version
Proxy Settings Android Application: Requires some survey and won't let me download it.
Open Desire: Requires survey I can't get around. (And looks like a ROM itself)
---------
Others I have found on market:
Proxymator: Crashes when I hit OK
http Proxy Settings: Crashes when I hit OK
GAE Proxy: Does not work (won't let me select port 80)
Any others you can suggest?
Oh and if it matters it is a Squid Web Proxy
-Thanks

Don't think so. I know VPN's don't work, wouldn't surprise me if proxy's don't either.
Okay, because all proxy apks don't work.
Thanks!
It's amazing how you can spend so much time on something like this without providing a single shred of useful information. Like a logcat.
I installed transproxy to test it out. It failed, because our kernel is missing the ipt_REDIRECT module. It took me 2 minutes to install it, get a logcat and look at the error messages to find this problem.
Since all of the proxy apps just use iptables, none of them will work without this iptables module. Simple fix - ask WisTilt2 to add it to the config of the next kernel he builds.

How did you get a logcat that was fine?
All mine ended up corrupt after running transproxy...
Dunno. Maybe you got a corrupted download, it was fine for me.
I've submitted a bug report about the kernel module for you.

thanks ;D
Hopefully that gets added to kernel soon.

[Q] SGS II USB Reverse Tethering

Hey everyone
I hope you answer me asap .
I've searched in the internet for usb back tethering & i found it & worked for me great , but now the problem is , when i installed the KJ2 rom the method wont to run , is there any way you guys know it to run the back tethering again ?
old way :
1. sharing internet from your network driver with samsung .
2.putting these ip addresses in the samsung network conn. :
10.1.1.1 as main ip
255.255.255.0 as Default GW
3.opening better terminal emulator from your device & adding the following commands :
su
ifconfig usb0 10.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 10.1.1.1 dev usb0
setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8
now this way was working great for me but after the KJ2 ROM installation it didnt work atall.
i am waiting for an answer from you guys
& thank you
i am starting to bump since no reply till now
woops bump
hard to know that such a huge forums doesn't gave 1 guy knows waht am i talking about !!!

The answer seems pretty obvious to me, revert to your previous ROM.
thank you for your obvious answer but i am sure that there are another more useful obvious answers in the forum .
& btw people upgrade their properties not downgrading them .
again , thank you for your obvious reply
@DADER,
I agree with the other guy... Return to your previous ROM if yu NEED this feature atleast until someone can give you a better answer.
@DADER,
What the heck is "usb back tethering"? When I do a google search for that exact term in quotes (which guarantees that only that exact phrase is found), the ONLY result I get is this very thread.
Are you trying to do tethering via usb to have your computer use the phone's 3g connection? Or trying to tether the phone to use your computer's network connection?

I did read your post. It is barely comprehensible, which is why I had to ask what the heck you are talking about. And as I said, the term "USB back tethering" in a google search doesn't turn up any pages but this one.
well , a month ago there was a blog which i found in it this method , google is a moody search engine
what the **** , i've been posting this thread for a week & no reply from a mod or developer - i just want if there's a solution or not- ( btw with all of my respect to the members whom participated in this thread ).
i hope someone gives a look to the thread & gives me a decisive answer ....

What you're talking about is called USB Reverse Tethering. That should clear a lot of things up.
Secondly, if you're not getting a reply, don't just continually bump the thread.
..and finally, take people's advice: if you really need this, then go back to the old setup. If not, stop complaining.
Your best bet would be to contact the original developer, not start a new thread.
screamworks.
.. Or why not take this as an opportunity to learn more about linux? The method you posted sounds like it should work if only you tweaked the commands to work with your new ROM. Start by getting familiar with ifconfig and linux network stack.

I wasn't being aggressive, it's called common sense. Don't start acting as if you're entitled to help from people, when they do it in their spare time out of their own free will - the least you can do is not waste their time by doing some basic searching beforehand.

App for wifi passwords on ICS?

I'm looking for an app like PulWifi for "hacking" passwords of some wifi networks, since I used PulWifi but it seems it doens't work for ICS anymore... Anyone knows an app that does this? Thanks
Hacking wifi password -> Illegal
Illegal -> Against the rules
Against the rules -> Not allowed to discuss
No.

You r not.
PulWifi didn't use any hacks, it just used default passwords for "hacking". Mind the ".

It is illegal, thats why google took it off the market.
But if you want legal! Then have a look here.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwxLDEsImV2ei5hbmRyb2lkLnJiZl9hZHMiXQ
The app does not hack the wifi itself, it uses default passwords from manufacturers to get access to the router!
And this is legal because those passwords are publicly available.
But i think you have to be connected to the wifi first so it give you access to free wifi then your able to get into the router to port forward or whatever.
Cheers,
Evil.
P.s. I do not condone hacking other peoples wifi!!

Editing the Mail APK

Okay this is a question I have been wondering for a while now.
I work in the IT department for my company and we are starting to move to Smartphones. We have an exchange server with active sync. When you setup the stock mail account to it there is a page that states that the system administrator of the server has the capabilities to wipe your phone, wipe data, lock your phone and other things.
2 part question.
How do I block that from happening, is there a way to modify the Mail APK to not allow remote connections to modify my phone
If the above is possible.. how do I stop that?
haha because I don't want anyone having access to my phone even my own department a my job and yet I need to know how to stop if someone outside of IT tries to do it..
I know its alot, any suggestions.
Obviously I am rooted S-on unlocked boot loader and all the bells and whistles.

Dont think its possible without writing an app that alters the ports your phone connects on...Apps like ad-blocker are a good start it does that for you... Just add the ip you want to block to his list after decompiling the app... Recompile and install... That should work itll treat that ip adress as if it were an ad and block it...
I've done this mod already. I'll post it for everyone as soon as I can. I based it in mikeyxda's version which has sync while roaming as well, so I need to check with him first too.

Whatsapp IP addresses

Does Whatsapp does senders IP address get stored with the message received, like IP addresses are stored with email headers?
If this is not the correct forum, I apologize and please move to correct one. Also thanks for all replies
Whatsapp doesn't store it but your phone does
Go to terminal emulator and type netstat -n it shows all active incoming connections

Did you write "netstat" or "nestat" like you posted it?
I tried it on Android 4.1.2 and it showed me a lot of IPs.
But why my phone should know the ip of the sender, if the message goes about Whatsapp's server?

Because it forwards their ip address to you and not theirs.
spacebast said:
Ok. I traced all the shown adresses but the results point only to the US (should be Germany).
Is Whatsapp using HTTP or other protocoll? So i could select by shown protocolls. Thx.
PS: Port 5222 (XMPP)? Could be ICQ too...

Hello!
I have the same issue: all addresses point to the USA instead of Morocco , except two pointing to Ireland, but there are other ip addresses using port 80, leading to Ireland too, so it's quite confusing.
spacebast, you're mentioning port 5222 ? is it the port i should be looking at? i was focusing on 443 for whatsapp
Thanx everyone
