Mac address

[leahcim]

Can someone tell me where the Mac address is stored in SGS2.
I have found /etc/wifi/nvram_net.txt but in that file it is a different mac address then the one i see in wifi advanced settings.

I could have sworn I replied to this three hours ago but I clearly didn't.

Settings->About phone->Status->Wi-Fi MAC address.

You did but I started two threads by mistake.

I know this but I want to change it and wounder where it is stored in the os.

It isn't stored in a file, it is stored in the firmware of the adapter itself.

That doesn't mean it cannot temporarily be changed but you will need to find an app that can do this.

[Edit]

Have a look here http://androidforums.com/t-mobile-g1/3506-changing-spoofing-mac-address.html#post2293034 it's not pretty though and unsurprisingly, requires that you have rooted your phone.

Thanks

I have already tried to follow that one but i did not find nvram.txt in /data/misc/wifi. Does someone know where it is stored in SGS2?
