Recently, I tried to change Mac on my phone Xiaomi Redmi note 4 (Snapdragon).
rooted + supersu + twrp + busybox.
i tried many methods with miui roms and LOS/AOSP custom roms.. nothing works.
Even i found MAC Address path after many research and trying to change manually but no luck..
here is path
/sys/devices/soc/a000000.qcom,wcnss-wlan/wcnss_mac_addr
Nothing works.
There is app called "WiFi Mac changer" by Osama abukmail with I able to spoof Mac successfully but the story is the same : problem of autentication.
I found this post is related to this issue.

Please any Dev figure out how to edit those files in RN4

Hi all!
I'm porting a ROM to my device (HDC Samsung GT-I9500 MTK6577 based) and I'm stuck with a problem that is getting me out of my mind, I hope you'll help me with that, here the details I got :
The device :
A fake Samsung Galaxy S4 based on the MTK6577 :
Stock ROM : Android JB 4.1.1 (With crappy Touchwizz UI)
ROM I want to port : Android JB 4.2.2 (Stock Android)
The device is very close to the Iris 455, I've tried to flash this ROM here and it worked, I just had to change those files to fix WiFi issue and Bluetooth issue :
\system\lib\modules\mtk_stp_wmt.ko
\system\lib\modules\mtk_wmt_wifi.ko
\system\lib\libbluetooth_mtk.so
\system\lib\libbluetoothem_mtk.so
The problems :
I can't install any APK manually or any app via Google Play Store. ("Unknown error -110" for GP and "App not installed" with manual install)
I can't mount the SD external card. (SD card damaged) [Fixed with the ZTE v970/v970m]
Camera is reverted but that's not really a problem for me.
Messaging app crashing on any ROM I tried.
What I've tried :
For the apps install issue :
Flashed new Gapps. (worked but still can't install apps)
Installed new Busybox.
Push APK with ADB. (Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR])
But none of those made a concrete progress.
For the SD card not mounting :
Chkdsk on SD card.
Format to FAT32.
Inserted it on another mobile to format it.
And still none of these options worked.
I've followed the log to try to find the bug or to find any clues, but I got nothing really interesting.
Those bugs do not exist in the Stock ROM, I'm just trying to figure out how to solve those problems.
Thanks in advance ! If you need any other informations, please let me know.

Try this:
1. Install minimal ADB;
2.Open the terminal in a PC and type:
adb shell ENTER
su ENTER
mkdir /data/app--lib ENTER
This should take care of the problem. I hope this helps.

On the second issue try this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2123239 read particularly from page 165. The whole thread is very educative as as far as MTK devices are concerned,
Well thank you for this tip! That's a great topic!
Here are the news :
With the other ROM I was trying to port, no way, mounting the external SD card is impossible, even if I tried all the guides I've found in the topic, the good news is, I've found another ROM here that mounted the two cards without any problem ! (I'm very thankful to superdragonpt for that awesome ROM ^^ )
The bad news is that the APK install issue is still live :/ ! With the two ROMs (the IRIS and the ZTE one) I got the same error no matter what I try I've tried the commands you've provided me but with no concrete results.. Tried also to chmod 755 in case of the app folder were set in a wrong chmod but nothing happened (rebooted several times to be sure).
The other bad news is that WiFi and BT are not working, I'm currently on that issue trying to fix that. [Fixed]
So any ideas for the APK installs? Apps placed in /data/app are not visible when flashed in the phone by the way.

Please tell me how you fixed it. Its been troubling me a lot
As said by @Primokorn, my device is very rare and so I am cross posting here for additional help.
Hi,
First of all Device specs :
Device : Quantum QPulse 100s (Not chinese, its middle eastern company)
Processor : Intel Celeron N2805 1.46GHz
RAM : 2GB
OS : Windows 8.1 Pro, Android 4.2.2 (Dual Boot)
So as the title says, i need to root my android, here goes my story...
I tried so many methods to root but was unsuccessful
Here are the points to first notice :
1. Android is a custom built android but build id matches with nexus phone ( idk why )
2.There is NO BOOTLOADER.
More on that :- The tab itself is a mini PC, and i found out it has BIOS, and in the BIOS I found 2 options,
a) EFI BOOT
b) Windows management blah something we are not interested right now.
I found out that android has an EFI boot and we can go to the EFI SHELL but i found no use of that.
3. You CANNOT connect it to a PC using a USB cable.
Ask why ? Because the tab itself is a host system and in no way can you connect a host to another host. Except maybe networking.
Now for the INTERESTING Things WE can USE :
I found a way to mount all the android partitions on the windows os and I can write to those partitions.
Now i did place supersu.apk, su, busybox to the folders they need to be, but in android terminal app it says su permission denied.
Probably some permission problems. I have tried giving chmod in terminal app and moving those files to system/bin later. But didnt work
Also no root apps, such as Kingroot, Towelroot etc are working.
Beware again - You CANNOT use USB using methods.
I need root so i can install gapps, and also because i like root.
So, I need The XDA help
waiting. . . .
3 day bump.. awaiting any useful reply..
I dont want anyone to go deep into the device but it would be useful to tell me how to root a android, whose partition is accessible from another OS ( windows 8.1 )
-_-
٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
Why no reply guys, a week and half past the post and i have nothing. Is that the geniuses here dont know how to do this or they didnt read it yet ?
Common, this is in no way "noob friendly" forum says. If you want me to believe in the previous line forever, then don't post anything, otherwise HELP me. Is there no one out there who can solve a simple problem or are they not willing to do anything, I think I have already waited for a month and i think it was plenty time for at least one reply or suggestion. You guys are dissapointing me
Hello everybody i am not usually posting because most of my problems are always solved in already existing threads.
But in this case:
i have an anonymous TV dongle.
model: gxt_dongle_3188
android version: 4.4.2
rooted: with Kingo Root
Busybox is installed
I need to change my wifi-mac address from 54:e4:bd:9f:bd96 to 00:22:f4:f0:12:88, i know that the first 3 sets are vendor's indicator but i dont care for the possible conflicts that the change may create.
I started trying to use all the mac changing apps from playstore and i had any result, then i used terminal as SU with busybox and in my iplink show list i had not eth0, only wlan0 and p2p0 that looks like having MAC addresses.
Then i used ifconfig wlan0 hw ether [my mac] command and had no errors but in the status option i could not find any changes
I used also similar command sequences i found online.
also i found that i dont have the "efs" folder in my folder system and as i show in many tutorials this folder contains files about mac addresses.
Had anyone a problem like this so he/she can give me some help?
thank you in advance .
Hi,
I need to change my mac address. My phone is Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (with Mediatek X20 processor), with 64GB storage and 3GB RAM. Running latest MIUI Global Stable 8.0.40. Bootloader is unlocked, installed latest cofface's TWRP, and rooted.
I tried several apps (ChameleMAC & Change My Mac don't work), the MTK Engineering Mode method by changing through byte string access in WiFi_NVRAM also didn't work (the 'write' function doesn't do or change anything). Wanted to try the hex editor method, but can't find the /nvram/APCFG/APRDEB folder in /data or /dev folder.
I'm out of ideas. Anybody know a method to change mac address that's actually /U] work for Redmi Note 4 (nikel) with Mediatek X20 processor?
I'm running AOSP rom on RMN4 and can change MAC address with ChameleMAC or MTK Engineer Mode. You must root, then use app called SELinuxModeChanger to set into Permissive, then ChameleMAC can working after that.

THANK YOU!
SELinuxModeChanger is the key.
No success with SElinuxModeChanger or SELinux Toggler

Your success in changing the MAC-Adress gave me hope to do the same... (I need to change the MAC-Adress because two of our Redmi Pro have somehow the same MAC-Adress...and this causes constat WIFI-Problems...)
But unfortunately, both apps didn't work for me... (Redmi Pro, SuperSu 2.82, BusyBox)
The Toggler couldn't be installed at all... And the ModeChanger "can't get root" (although SuperSu states, it has root rights...)
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
UPDATE!
I could install the SELinux Toggler by flashing the ZIP with TWRP... and could finally change the WLAN-MAC-Adress (after a few attempts) with SELinux set to permissive and writing a new MAC-Adress within the Engeneer Mode...
The only strange thing is, that after the first reboot the MAC-Adress changed again to a completely new one. But since then, it stays the same so far...

Hi, few day ago I made a videos with a modded version of Google Camera 8.1,
the first one was not saved properly and was in .pending????????.mp4 state, and I erased it by mistake,
because it was first time, I was using this tool, and I didn't knew that it is a temporary file.
I tried to recover, using many tools, but I was unable to recover it, so I decided to Root my phone using Magisk,
I made some mistake and testing some FastBoot command I relocked my Unlocked phone.
I had to Unlock again by using "miflash_unlock.exe", with advertising that all my data’s will be deleted.
After I managed to patch my phone, he restarted (I don’t installed any previous apps prom store, to avoid my video to wiped by new data,
and I tried with Ult Data, Dr Phone to recover the file, but Root access was not accepted.
Then I tested lot of android tool, nothing worked, after searching a lot I found this page :
https://drfone.wondershare.com/android-recovery/phone-memory-data-recovery.html
And I tried but some command didn’t work, since I didn't have FDISK, FTPPUT on my phone file system,
after some other search I found this ancient page (2014) who seemed to be the source,
https://sudonull.com/post/108208-Recovering-data-from-internal-memory-on-Android-for-dummies
and after installing BusyBox Pro,
I managed to get missing Linux tools.
I tried the command, all worked fine,
but now I’m unable to access this one :
Code:
ftpput -v -u sally -p able -P 40 192.168.1.4 sde55.raw /cache/myfifo
because my FileZilla does not get any information.
And I receive this message :
Code:
can't connect to remote host (192.168.1.4): Connection timed out
The article is old and that guy was using U.S.B. MoDem on CyanogenMod 11.
I use Magisk pro rooting and I do not know what tool I should use to get U.S.B. link with FileZilla Server to get proper connection.
I tried many things, changing protocols, P.T.P., M.T.P., and I do not know what to do,
so I thought may be here, someone with experience could point me to a tool to use in Android 12 / 11 with my Magisk and link to FileZilla Server,
to get image of internal memory back‑up‑ed ?
Thank you in advance.
No one knows how to ?
Someone knows an other methodic to extract partition totally & perfectly ?
