Would anyone know why a ROM would not produce the correct mac adress and just leave it as blank? Because if you do not have a Mac Adress you cannot connect to any wifi network... any help would be appreciated :laugh:
A did a quick google search and found this

another thread said something about the kernel flashed to many times, but I doubt that is the case.

Hi,
I have strange internet provide that lets only one MAC address on network. Long story short, I have to change a Wifi MAC address on my 8525. Any ideas?
I would prefer something simple, maybe a simple aplication to do so.
I have read post like

but, it is complicated, since I need to be able to change it back to original on daily bases with no access to external computer.
Thanks

Sadly that's the only way it can be done; the WLAN MAC address is stored at a fixed offset within the ROM - the post you mention above is a guide to patching the ROM to update it with the required MAC address.

1 thought as my cable provider is like that to a certain regard,
Get a wireless router. then register the mac of the router with the provider, everything else is transparent to the provider as it would appear to come from the router ans is all ip based, aqs no Mac based services ( ie: netbios ipx/spx ) are used on the internet only on local network
hope this helps
First of all, i would like to say hello guys and thanks to every developer in here.
I'm trying to change my x10 (FreeX10 from here) mac address, but i've tried a lot of commands like:
ip link wlan0 set address xx:xx:...
most of them just returns me invalid operation or siocsifhwaddr error
i've tried the app Set Mac Address with no luck.
Tried to find the /etc/wl/nvram.txt there is no file in there.
Tried to look for a file with any WL inside, most of them seems code not configuration.
Have someone already been able to change this?
I need this because in my work everyone can have only on mac address signed to, so if i want to use wifi i need to set every thing to the same mac address.
Sorry my bad english.
Thanks in advance
Ruan

It may be because of my lack of knowledge on linux system, but i couldn't understand most of the commands in there, tried to reproduce but i got nothing.
Does anyone knows any step by step for x10 using terminal commands if possible to do this?
hi to all, i'm a newbie on this forum, and i know this may not be the right place for this 3d, but i don't have enogh messages to write on developer topic.
I've a strange behaviour on my galaxy S advance.
I've installed Harhjely 3.2 with cocore 8.2 and CWM, with HJ 3.0 all works fine, i've upgraded to 3.2 but tethering is not more working.
Doesn't work neither wi-fi and bluetooth tethering.
I found the problem but i don't know how to fix it.
essentially the problem is on the dhcp server,
I'm able to see wi-fi connection from different devices to my phone, i can see on the tethering table the mac address of my pc and the ip address reserved to it, but the pc doesn't acquire the address and after a lttle it assigns itself an ip from PIPA netwoek (169.254.0.0/16 ) and so is not able to use the phone to go to internet.
I tried different devices (many laptop with different OS, tablet and others phones), but no luck, dhcp server is not working properly.
Any idea how to fix it ?
still not working
i tried to update to 4.0 version of harshjelly, but no luck, tethering is still not working.
i put here a log taken with logextreme during tethering process (device is able to connect, phone seems able to give it an ip address, but no one ip address is released), so please if any of you is able to give me an hand i'll be extremely gratefull.
Tethering is crucial for me, if i'm not able to make it working, i need to revert to stock image that i hate, but tethering works...
Please help me:
many thanks

You'll have to be more specific.
If you don't have this file whose files are delete then you can write mac address by Write IMEI...
Try a MAC changer app. If it can modify MAC adress, I think it can also regenerate it
