Greetings,
I've extracted the nvram.txt file from a ROM but couldn't edit it! I'm trying to set my MAC address to a certain value! Is there anyway I can edit it?

Hi, just wondering if there is any way to redirect URLs to an alternate IP address, the way you can with a hosts file in Windows?
I need to change the address WP7 resolves an activesync URL to.
I realized one registry key "HKLM\COMM\Tcpip\Hosts\" same as windows WM6.5 and windows ce, but i really don't know how to create a binary vaule for "ipaddr", i tried to use a provxml to creat or modify but the binary value is so terrible.
Hi,
I am in ADB and I think I messed up a config file using echo >> file
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36273891&postcount=490
Is it possible to open this file in a text editor in adb and change it?
I have BusyBox v1.17.1 I tried "vi" but it does not seem to be a linux vi program. Maybe the name vi is mapped to another program in busy box?
How do I edit the file in place? Is the only way to edit it is download to the computer and upload to the phone again?
Thanks
There are a number of reasons one may want to change their WiFi mac address that are not worth discussing here. The point of this guide is only to provide instructions for making the change on a KitKat 4.4 2nd Gen Moto G. It might work for Lollipop but I've not tested it.
This requires root access.
Go to the WiFi settings panel and open the menu at the bottom right corner.
Click 'Advanced' and write down the MAC address shown (second to last entry)
Use your root enabled file explorer (ES File Explorer is one example) to navigate to /persist and copy the file called 'WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin'
Paste the file in a place where you can edit it (ex the downloads folder)
Download a hex editor app and open the file from the location you just copied it to
You should be able to find a set of characters in this file that matches your MAC address - make sure that the set matches exactly what you wrote down before
Change the characters to a new MAC address of your choosing and save the file
Using your file explorer, rename the original file 'WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin' in the /persist directory to something like 'WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv_bak.bin' to create a backup file
Copy and paste the modified copy of 'WCNSS_qcom_wlan_factory_nv.bin' from your Downloads folder (or wherever you put it) to the /persist folder
Reboot and check your mac address as detailed in steps 1-2 to ensure that it has changed. This change will be persistent.
I used this small apk to change it:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jworksbr.macspoofer
I think it's easier to change with one of the apps from the google play.
Can someone send to me two very small size txt files - build.prop and local.prop from B173 ROM? I changed them and I do not have the oryginall files without my changes.
Can someone send it on my e-mail?
I want to do local update and I do not know if it is possible witch changed build.prop and local.prop files?
