I have to use public wifi because the place I work at doesn't offer wifi for their workers. But the public wifi has a 1 hour maximum limit, and so I was wondering if I could change the MAC address of my phone without rooting it? From what I have read, it is only temporary, but that is enough for me. I tried following a guide (can't link it because I'm a new member, but just google how to change mac address on android with no root).
I run into trouble with the error "request send failed: Permission denied" when using Terminal Emulator
I have attached a screenshot of 3 commands I tried.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The first command was "ip link" which worked and showed me all the interfaces
The second command was "ip link show" and didn't work
The third command was "ip link set wlan0 address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" which didn't work (I used a MAC address generator to ensure the MAC address I tried was valid)
Can anyone help me please? I'm not sure why I'm getting a permission denied
I am using a Samsung S8 (SM-G950F) on Android 8.0.0 with Samsung Experience version 9.0
I have the Samsung Exynos Octa 8895 2.31GHz model
I need to change my MAC address for the same purpose, but on Huawei Mate 10 Pro with the same Android Version 8.0.0 and EMUI 8.0.0 no root - used the same article and have the same errir after entering the commands from the Terminal Emulator. Looks like it worked on older Android versions. Anyone has any successful experience or ideas how to change MAC address on Android 8.0.0 without rooting device?
Thanks in advance!
Simply just check if your phone comes with mac randomisation option

Hello,
I recently re-arranged my home network and now I can't get my android devices (HD2 and Acer A511) connect to the internet via WiFi.
I didn't brought any new devices, I just configured them in another way.
Old configuration

}
New configuration
Problem
Every client can access the internet, regardless with which wifi network or cabled network he's connected to.
Except for android devices:
Wifi 1: android devices connect, get an IP form DHCP and can access the internet
Wifi 2: android devices connect, get an IP from DHCP and can't access the internet. They are only able to access the 192.168.2.X range.
I already googled for days and tested everything I could imagine but I just can't find the error.
Already tested
DHCP server: Works fine in every subnet
DNS server: Also works fine. Every device can solve / resolve domains
Checked IPs, MAC addresses
Other WiFi keys, security modes (including none)
Static IPs
Redirect every port to one device
Windows and Linux clients (fully working)
Has anyone here an idea why this is happening and most important: how to fix it?
PS: No I can't change the configuration back. I had to do it because of my room arrangement.

INTRODUCTION:
The "hosts" file - what you typically use to block unwanted connections - in emulator's Android system is located in subfolder /system/etc. This file in most cases doesn't care of fact that not 127.0.0.1 ( 0.0.0.0 ) is the special alias to Windows host's loopback interface, but 10.0.0.2 - at least that's case with VirtualBox based emulator engines.
MVPS.org provides a "hosts" file ready for Windows PCs, for the reason pointed out before it isn't compliant to Android emulators: You'ld have to convert it to get it working.
To make life easier I made a small tool that
1. downloads the "hosts" file
2. converts it thus it suits emulator's Android
3. deploys it to Android emulators attached
and decided to make it publicly available.
DOWNLOADS:

Please do NOT SHARE these links anywhere else.
USAGE:
• Unpack the .ZIP-file
• Run Windows command script named "AndroidEmulatorHostsUpdater.bat"
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Only works on properly rooted emulators where USB Debugging got enabled.
FYI:
Successfully tested on BlueStacks v4.50.0.1043 installed on laptop running 64bit Windows v10.0.17134.523.
BTW: I don't no longer use Chinese emulators because I noticed these throughout track you, send your data to Chinese servers and/or advertisers. BlueStacks, an US American product, does this not!
Can anyone tell me the best firmware that's available for my head unit Latest Firmware MCU (K2001_NWD_S212109) Preferable Rooted or am i on the latest version possible for this unit at the moment?
I have pulled hardware info and will show screenshots of my findings, i would like to root this unit so i can get to the whitelist file to allow tasker to work via a fast boot, i have tried multiple different things to get root on this device
All the software APK methods they all fail
i Trying to do it via the pc ADB method but no luck there Even though i get toADB no issues i cannot get to SU I'm stuck in User
Also trying to reach the bootloader i run the command in ADB "adb reboot recovery" it reboots successfully goes to recovery but does not give me the usual menu says something about command then takes me out of the bootloader
couple of things iv tried to work around on this car stereo is, i downloaded shortcuts to accessibility, security menus as they are stripped out i can get to Services option if i go to accessibility shortcut and lets me enable power optimization but that's had no effect on the quick boot start up, and when i attempt to access the security menu it drops me back to the home screen obviously don't have permissions to get there
Does anyone have one of these devices that they have successfully rooted or changed the firmware to allow root i hate being locked in a rom that gives me no options to customize my headhunt,

Hello guys,
I think many of you know these advanced options of the fire tv stick.
For my current project I need to be able to query the displayed video information (especially the color standard) via commandline or some libary. I have almost no experience with android development, but if someone has a solution I should be able to figure the rest out myself.
I suppose I would have to root the fire tv stick. After that I have no idea what to do. Since the information can be displayed via the advanced options, I assume that there must be a way to query them via command line or a libary.
Maybe someone with more experience in this field has an idea

@Kramar111 Thats exactly what i need! Thank you!
I didn't even know that you can do this kind of stuff with adb.. Buts its really cool this way that you can ask remote via adb and run the scripts on another device
@Kramar111
I tested it today, and yeah basically its doing what i need, but the problem is, that i don't want to have open the Advanced Options all the time. The idea was to read out the color standard in the background without limiting the tv experience. So the advanced options menu should not be visible.
Do you have another idea?
@chikko80
No
I had a hidden partition on my hard drive where they created a server that placed me under a work profile. I somehow got access to a file on my network [ I forgot how I did it] and changed some 0 and 1 around in some of the system files, and then my phone got downloads because, I think, my computer thought my phone was the server. I don't know... but I removed my hard drive, and the devices in the BIOS were setup to occupy my RAM with their control. I'm not sure if I was battling an algorithm or live hackers or both. But this picture was the command windows options menu, and I'm not sure if this is normal, but I believe they were gaining access through my color options in the command line. They have updated software on my old ipod back in 2012. I know a few of them personally, and one posted a wisecrack on Facebook about the military's abilities the same day my ipod got screwed out of my control by a software update. They get their schemas from, in this case, www.3w.com if my memory serves me. It's an architect company, but the schemas they use on my computer allow them to hijack my computer by using false security codes. One of my system files in booting has a command that upon power up, opens a command window then deletes the trace, and everything in my booting loads from their devices, and that command window opens on their server. Any ideas? I'm not sure I really want to fight the owners of this Earth, because I believe that is ultimately who I am dealing with.
You wouldn’t believe me if I told you the truths of how I know this. Anyways, I'll be glad to hand over my laptop if anyone wants to check it out
