Hi,
Can some one help me in changing the Mac address.
Tried Busy box bit is not working...
I could get it working perfectly on my Note 2. I'm on the custom Eclipse V3 ROM.
Requirements : Root
0) Switch OFF WIFI
1) Use a file browser. Navigate to /efs/wifi/
2) Backup the file ".mac.info" (you need to enable "show hidden files" to be able to see this one)
3) Edit the file and put in the MAC address you want.
4) Save the file to the same location
5) Switch on wifi (reboot not required)

1. download this file.

2. with root explorer open /system/bin. rename wpa_suplicant to wpa_suplicant.bak (for backup).
3. copy the downloaded file to /system/bin.
4. change the permission to 777 (rwxrwxrwx)
how to use adhoc connection (for windows user):
1. open network and sharing centre.
2. click setup new network. choose adhoc connection. press next
3. give name the new connection. choose no-authentificatin for the connection type.
4. clik OK. don't forget to enable internet connection share.

what's wifi adhoc for sir? is this for file sharing via wifi?
ad hoc?
if you have a laptop or a PC with wifi and already connected to internet, you can make an adhoc connection to share your internet connection with others. in normal situation we can't detect adhoc connection with our device. with this simple mod we can detect and connect to any unsecured adhoc connection.

I use connectify to share internet pc with wifi to my device..
Are this same purpose with different method???
yup...it has same purpose but different method.

If you want to spoof mac address in other phones the tricks are very easy, you can either use Mac Spoofing Applications available on Play Store, however these apps don't work for Sony Xperia Devices such as Z,ZL,Z1 and probably other Xperia Devices.
To spoof the mac address in these devices you can do as follows.
***ROOT REQUIRED
1.) Turn Off Wifi
2.) Use ES File Explorer or Root Explorer, Navigate to /data/etc/
Here you will find,
bluetooth_bdaddr
wlan_macaddr0
wlan_macaddr1
wlan_macaddr2
wlan_macaddr3
3.) Backup these files to your sdcard or any other location.
4.) Open sdcard/backups/wlan_macaddr0, edit in ES File Editor or any other text editing tool.
You will find your original mac address, change it to desired mac such as "00:11:22:33:44:55" and save it.
5.) Replace with original file.
6.) Turn on Wifi, check mac address in "About Phone".
Note: Other files wlan_macaddr1, wlan_macaddr2, wlan_macaddr3 are same as the wlan_macaddr0, just changing the first file does the job. If you want you can modify the other files too.
Mac Address will revert back to your original if you restart your phone.
I tried this on 4.4.4 kitkat xperia z. Didnt work for me?

How can change mac address sony xperia M5 E5633
Hello,
I am running Resurrection Remix v5.0.5-20140309 on my Note 2, upgraded from v5.0.2-20140212.
And since then, it doesn't connect to some WiFi networks like my home WiFi. When I activate WiFi, no automatic connection and when trigerring a manual connection from the WiFi menu, it directly to disabled state and doesn't even try to connect (it seems).
Hoewever, it connects normally to my work WiFi.
Note that my home wifi runs on 2,4GHz, my work wifi on both 2,4 and 5GHz.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks.

Go to the /data/misc/wifi/ way with a root file manager and open this text file name as wpa_supplicant.conf . Find your home wifi. Look the text "autojoin=" is 0 or 1. If it 0, change to 1.
Try it, maybe work.

No mention of autojoin in my wpa_applicant.conf file.
However, I don't know how, it happens that when I was editing the file, my device shows the WiFi icon on the header. But it disappeared right after and back to the same situation.

Actually it recreates the file from itself without the need of rebooting the phone. And the new file has all my previous known WiFi networks connection details.
But it still doesn't fix anything.

bug fixes:
1. facebook app videos working
2. games such as vector, cut the rope, wheres my water etc working
3. camera is much faster
4. I think the over flashlight issue is solved (earlier while capturing pics the flash used to be more sometimes on a shiny surface)

I have fixed mine.
There was no MAC address programmed to the device at factory. That's an omission. So the WIFI driver when activated after restart or by turning wifi off/on notices that and gives a temporary MAC address.
That address changes in the last bytes.
The solution is to write a WIFI MAC address with an appropriate tool. I did use SN_Writer just be careful to leave the other data alone.
I guess the same happens with the Bluetooth address but did not check that out yet.
0) Choose a valid MAC just look under settings the temporary one that your phone uses that's ok
1) Install VCOM Driver if you don't have it yet
If you use Windows 10 then you have to temporarily disable Driver Signature check since those drivers are not signed
Instructions and download here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-m2/help/windows-10-mtk-vcom-usb-drivers-32-64-t3267033
2) Download the SN_Writer I did use that one, password is mtk2000
http://mtk2000.ucoz.ru/down18/SN_Writer_Tool_v1.1648.rar
3) Download the right stock rom for your device you need the file which is named like the one I did use
APDB_MT6797_S01_alps-mp-m0.mp9_W16.48
4) Power off phone
5) In SN_Writer hit System Config uncheck everything and check Wifi Adress on the left side
In database file AP_DB use the file from 3)
That should do it.
Hit Start and entry the MAC just the digits no dashes etc.
Connect the phone while holding Volume Down.
That should do it.
Thanks for the write up, I got my S7 WiFi MAC address fixed now too, with your steps !!
Bluetooth appears already fixed/correct. (Also I haven't noticed my paired bluetooth devices loosing pairing..)

Great! Also good that Bluetooth is correct. Did not pair anything yet but good to know there won't be similar problems.

Sorry for my late answer.
Double check step 3) you need the correct file from the correct stock rom for your device.
If that still doesn't work I would try reflashing the bootloader preloader (only) from stock ROM and try again.
It should work.
I'm not having any luck with my device on windows 10.
Whenever I try to connect my device to windows via usb, a pop appears - (USB device not recognized-the last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned ,and Windows does not recognize it) .
I've also tried to clean up my usb drivers and re-install MTK preloader.
Any advice how I might fix this?
