So ive been trying to spoof the mac address on my HTC Desire (LEE Droid 2.2a, rooted) but to no avail.
Ive tried going through terminal and putting "ip link set etho...." but i get "operation not permitted"
Ive seen this guide for the HTC Hero but I dunno if it'll work on a Desire:
ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=686789
Anybody have any ideas? And im doing this because my university doesnt allow any mobile devices to connect to their network, only laptops. So im trying to spoof my Android's Mac Address to my laptops.
Thanks in Advance.

So i think it worked, first thing you need to do is put in the command su so that the Terminal gets Super User access.
Then just put
iplink set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
iplink set eth0 broadcast XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
then to make sure it worked go to iplink show eth0
Will try that on my Wildfire. Phone must be rooted, right? Any other changes to phone?
I used this method, set eth0 a new mac address
then reboot my phone , put "iplink show" , the eth0 was missed
What can I do now ?

I am using htc Desire.
I have tried this command line
Code:
ip link set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
to change the mac which only works temporarily. After I disconnect and reconnect to the network, the mac resets to factory one
Also I tried this to copy nvram.txt from /data/misc/wifi/nvram.txt and add macaddr=XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX in the end , but I don't have such file there is only wpa_supplicant.conf in the wifi directory.
How can I change the mac address on HTC Desire running Android? I have rooted phone with superuser permission.
I'm trying to tether my Evo with my HP netbook that's currently running Blackbuntu which is a pen test distro based on Ubuntu 10.10 and using Wicd as my network manager. With the default network manager usb tethering worked "out of the box" but unfortunately I was unable to use WiFi with it which forced me to use Wicd. In order for Wicd to function properly I had to fully remove the original network manager. Now I can't figure out how to configure Wicd to work with tethering. Somewhere I read all I have to do is change the wired interface in Wicd from eth0 to usb0, or something along those lines, so I tried ifconfig to verify and nothing showed up other than eth0, lo, and wlan0 - the 3 that always show up. I can't seem to find the tethering tutorial I read before to double-check it. Any help/ideas would be great.
EDIT: I figured it out on my own. I just had a brain fart for a bit. For anyone wondering how to do it, here's how:
On your Evo open a terminal and do the following.
su
busybox ifconfig
Write down the IP address given.
Connect your phone to your Linux box and start USB Tethering.
On the Linux box open a terminal and type:
sudo ifconfig usb0 up
Open Wicd, click preferences, and change the wired interface to usb0. You may have to set DNS1 to the IP you copied earlier.

Hey guys,
does anyone know how to spoof the mac address on your phone? I'm testing a vendor blocking system and i need to be able to spoof my mac.
Thanks,
Cryous
Open terminal type in "ip link show" to find your WLAN card; mine was eth0 so I will use that as an example. Enter the following:
ip link set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
To confirm that it switched, type in:
ip link show eth0
and it should show the new mac address. I haven't tested if it works on a MAC-filtered router, but I think it should work.
Found this on another thread seems to work. I was able to connect to my router after changing.
Its says access is denied, even when I use sudo

The command works for me but i noticed its changing the wrong thing.
what do you mean its changing the wrong thing? It appears to change the right value
search "network spoofer" in the market. I'm just sure if it can spoof mac addresses or not
Hi, is there anyway to spoof the MAC address on an m8 running 4.4.3 all the apps in the play store seem to end in an authentication error once the mac is changed by an app. This also happens when using a terminal and busybox with ifconfig, iplink etc.
Thanks.

Have you tried Pri-Fi?
Pry Fi causes an authentication error once the mac is spoofed, so the phone won't reconnect to the AP.
Does anyone have a solution for this??
This is would be a huge help if someone could find or has found a way to implement this. Ive tried the apps Mac Spoof and Mac Address Ghost with no luck. I went digging around in the system and found some files that I was denied access to (Searching terms like 'wlan' in ES File Explorer) and the ones I did dig through didn't contain any info. The /persist folder also contains nothing, which a few different posts lead me to check. I'm on a Rooted and S-Off Verizon HTC One M8 Stock before the update bringing power saver if its any help.
Hi
I've got one problem. I was trying to change my MAC address on Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini. That operation was successful.
I changed it by commands
Code:
su
ip link set wlan0 ADDRESS 00:00:00:00:00:00
And I also tried app "MAC Spoofer" . Both successful. But after changing MAC address I can't connect to WiFi. There is a problem with authentication. So I was looking for a solution on XDA. I found it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51072203&postcount=214 but I don't understand it. Could anyone tell me what should I do step by step?
