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 rooted my phone but since rooting it ive got no wifi it just says error when i check the ip address and mac address they are empty. Have i managed to break the wifi or have i just corrupted some settings and how do i reset them without doing further damage i can get into clockwork if that helps ??
Hi,
I tried using the internet passthrough facility on my Desire HD but was unable to do so.
I have enabled all the the application (.exe) files in Program Files(X86)\HTC directory to access internet completly without any restrictions.
But if the firewall is ON my phone cant access the internet, but if i switch off the McAfee firewall, internet is accessible from my phone.
Has anybody got a solution to this or faced a similar problem?
hi, i tried a lot of ways to change the mac address for my samsung s3, i am able to change it but for the wifi wont work until i restart it, and then my mac address changes back to original..(Sorry For My Bad English)!!
