Mac address is a permanent address hard coded into the phone's hardware, or any wireless device's hardware for that matter.. Each wireless device in the world has its own unique mac address, just as each computer's bios has its own unique code..
You cannot change your device's mac address..

I started to grant SuperUser rights to my terminal app . After this, i started with the command "busybox iplink show eth0" and received the following error message:
iplink: can't find device "eth0"
Additionally tried the other command (with eth0) and there is the following error message:
ifconfig: SIOCSIFHWADD: No such device
Im using a Samsung I9000 with root access and all root-related apps already have root access all in all.
Even when Im typing ":su" or ":busybox ~", the device means:
sh: :busybox: not found
I don't get it, the terminal can work without these colons but the "eth0" could not be found, too
Any hints/tipps? Would be great, thank you

At first, thanks for the fast reply and I think your right..
..but at least, I already tried "Wlan0"
It seems, that the command (including wlan0) could be executed and I'm also able to display the wlan0 settings by typing: busybox iplink show
All related content is displayed including the "wlan0". The recently added mac-adress is successfully taken at this point (xx:xx:xx~ instead of the original one) and could be displayed there but even when im checking for the MAC adress in my android wlan settings, there is still the old one and my smartphone still connects with the old MAC to my gateway

I'm not sure then sorry will have to see if anyone else knows how

Adhoc Support

Hi,
I have the Sony Xperia SP HSPA+ M35h C5302 Model
Running 4.1.2 Build No. 12.0.A.1.257 Rooted.
I want use wifi over adhoc on android since my wifi card does not support Access point thats the only choice.
I have used this method earlier also on Livw with walkman and was able to use the adhoc without any problem.
The method was:
Code:
All i done was first turn off wifi and then open wpa_
supplicant.conf in data/misc/wifi and placed
network={
ssid="Red"
mode=1
frequency=2412
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=50
}
in end. Dilushan should replace with wifi network name. Then got ownership back to system.wifi by typing the following 2 commands in Terminal Emulator.
su
then
chown system.wifi data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
thats all. Then i opened wifi in setting and it
automatically connected adhock network named
Dilushan. I
connected successfully to nokia phone wifi
network created by joikuspot and browsed internet
and also connected to a windows laptop. my
device xperia mini 4.0.4 .431 rooted locked
bootloader.
But when i done the same thing on the SP I can see the adhoc i added but it was showing "not in range"
If someone was able to do it please share.
Of if someone has edited tha wpa_supplicant file for the adhoc support for SP please share with me.

How to change Wi-Fi MAC in Bluestacks to a Specific One?

I am using Bluestacks 0.9.7.4101 which is already rooted. I want to change its Wi-Fi MAC Address as that of my mobile. So is there any way to change Bluestacks Wi-Fi MAC to a specific one? For example, 11:22:33:44:55:66.
I installed BusyBox and Terminal Emulator, but i am unable to change the Wi-Fi MAC. Somehow i managed to change the ethernet MAC, however it is still being listed as the fake MAC in wifi mac changer application. The wifi mac is listed as the real MAC in the app, which i want to change. Any help is appreciated....

Not sure which methods you've tried so far, but I found this method, I haven't tested it, so try at your own risk:
1. As you already have busybox and terminal installed, open a root shell in terminal (run "su" and grant access) note that all the following commands MUST be run as root
2. Run "busybox iplink show eth0" which will show your current Mac address, write it down in case you want/need to revert back
3. Run "busybox ifconfig eth0 hw ether XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX" where XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is replaced with your desired mac address
4. Run "busybox iplink show eth0" again to check if it did update

tried that...it doesn't work....moreover eth0 shows only the ethernet mac and not the wifi mac....i even verified this with device id app....wifi and ethernet MACs are different where ethernet mac is listed as fake mac and wifi mac is listed as the real mac in the wifi mac changer app.....

Anyone found solution to change wi-fi mac on rooted bluestacks?

I've already tried everything. It's impossible.

with root and expose - or with bstweak and a lot of installs you can make fake wifi to work; and type there your mac and other wifi name and fake bcid etc;
and looks like is possible to simulate all real device ids or most of them

play whole day and changes most of things; deviceid; fingerprint details;
now stack tofind free app for gsf id and hardware serial;

i met the same problem,but,some times i can use some apps to change,but ,after rebooting ,it still factory one also.....

I guess you don't know what the mac address is

Sorry for reviving old thread, just in case anybody interested in solution, leave alone /data/vendor/mac_addr/wlan_mac.bin and create /mnt/vendor/persist/wlan_mac.bin (or wherever persist is mounted) with a line wlan0=(desired mac address) and reboot. (At least should work with xiaomi devices)
