Look here http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...nge-permanent-mac-address-on-my-android-phone, you need to have root. Haven`t done this myself though. Good luck.

Please, tell us if you get WiFi working with a different MAC address.
I tried and I wasn't able to auth.

You can change your nexus 4 MAC address with a rooted device and the app called MAC Spoofer (root) (you can find it at google play)

[Q] MAC address change after flash

Hi all,
*
To my work, I can access to the WIFI by giving my MAC address. I gave my MAC address, and ok, I had access.
However, I flashed the rom CloudyG3 and following this, no access to WIFI... I've realized that my MAC address had changed (and I saw I 'wasn't alone in this case) ... So I did a new request for an access with the new MAC address, and it doesn't work ...
*
I used the application Wireless mac address change to replace the current MAC address with my old address and I regain access to the corporate network ...
*
So is there anyone could help me to find my old MAC address? I tried to reflash my phone, it does not change ... I tried to pass on the Rom OptimusG3, the MAC address remains on the new ...
*
Thank you in advance for your help

Mine does the same thing and I cannot get a answer on how to fix the wifi mac address change.

Flash with my Nandroid backup... unsuccessfully...

[Q] cm11 by cr3pt MAC Adress

Hi im using the cm11 rom pa-p700-4.6-BETA1-20140905.
I have installed this ROM on two LG P700 .
The Problem is that both has the same MAC Adress and so both can not be in the same network.
Can someone help me to change the MAC Adress .
I have tried a few Programms to change the MAC Adress but no one has worked.
the MAC Adress of both is 00:0a:f5:89:89:80
perhaps other Users of this Rom have the same MAC Adress

L5 CM11 have same MAC
EDIT:
Code:
system\etc\firmware\wlan\volans WCN1314_qcom_cfg.ini
FIND:
Code:
# All Interfaces MAC Address - This will be used until NV items are in place
# Each byte of MAC address is represented in Hex format as XX
Intf0MacAddress=000AF5898980
Intf1MacAddress=000AF5898981
Intf2MacAddress=000AF5898982
Intf3MacAddress=000AF5898983
Change it how you want but keep same length and use only 0-9 and A-F letters.
Save

Thank you for your fast help .
I change it and it works

[Guide] Spoof/change Xperia mac address

This guide is for users who want to change their device mac address. Mac address blocking can be a problem in public WiFi. Where the administrator can block your access to the internet using a mac filter !
The mac spoof apps on the play store wont work with xperias
Mac address handling varies with OEMs. So the trick which works on other devices, wont work on Xperias
This guide supports all Xperia devices (Zl /Z /Z1 /Z2 /Z3) on the latest KITKAT version (4.4.4)
Step 1
Copy the follwing from / data / etc
wlan_macaddr0
wlan_macaddr1
wlan_macaddr2
wlan_macaddr3
Step 2
Paste these files at /system/etc/firmware/wlan
Step 3
There will be files such as
macaddr0
macaddr1
macaddr2
macaddr3
Now rename all the above files to some other name. Like "macaddr0p" and so on..
Step 4
At /system/etc/firmware/wlan
You need to rename the files you have already copied
wlan_macaddr0 to macaddr0
wlan_macaddr1 to macaddr1
wlan_macaddr2 to macaddr2
wlan_macaddr3 to macaddr3
Edit the above files using text editor to the preferable mac address you wish to have and then REBOOT !. This is permanently change your mac address
Be careful while editing the mac address. Use numerals and first few alphabets till " f ". Otherwise the mac adress will change to 01:00:00:00:00:00 and WiFi might not work.

Hi,
First of all thanks for the info
On which version of Android did you tested ? Is it the same for all flavours of Android ?
