[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxskorpion88xx:
OK I ve found the problem

Switching off WiFi - applying patch switch on :sometime works and sometimes no

Switching air plane mode off- applying patch and switching air plane mode on: always works

For each of two every time you switch Mac you have to reswitch off/apply/on mode

If can help I ve original stock rom only rooted

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxskorpion88xx:
Moreover I can add another bug:

When you use airplane mode if u have manually switch off WiFi when you apply the patch the Mac won't change

While if you have WiFi on and put on air plane mode (in this way the air plane mode seems to force deactivating ofsomething that on WiFi mode off only sometime was deactivated) the Mac will change every time.

Please check out yourself

:laugh:thanks for the tests passed, they are very well described.

I assume that I never test my apps with airplain mode, I will do a bug-shooting this evening when I get home.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterchung89:
I think I found how to change the Mac address without problem authenticating. I found .macaddr under /persist/wifi. Just delete what is in the file and write your new Mac address. After changing it and rebooting it stuck, then I ran busybox ifconfig to confirmed that it works, and it shows the new Mac address.:eek::D

To anyone trying this, save your current Mac address somewhere just in case.

Out of curiosity, why would anyone want to spoof a MAC address other than getting past a routers MAC filter?

Thank but I prefer the app..in your method how u change Mac?

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 con Tapatalk 2
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterchung89:
For the method I posted, it permanently changes the Mac. In the .macaddr file delete the address that is in there (which should be your current Mac) and put in your new Mac and reboot. For some reason, the router would still identify me by my old Mac with the app (new Mac doesn't show up in router log).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxskorpion88xx:
But with app no problems authentication persist..only if u change Mac without app with busy box and terminal there were problems

Inviato dal mio Nexus 4 con Tapatalk 2
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] masterchung89:
About that, the router still doesn't read my phone by the new Mac I put into the app. Maybe I'm using the app incorrectly but when I use busybox ifconfig the new Mac does not show up, but with my method the new Mac shows up.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxskorpion88xx:
The app is great..if u have authentication problems with app I think your Mac wasn't change this should be due to WiFi problem reported when switch off WiFi.

With wifi on use airplane mode (that will force wifi off) before use app that put air plane mode on. Should work

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbr2:
It should work on 4.3 ... but I only tested on 4.2 yet.

The app uses the same procedure described in this forum: it modifies the files in /data/misc/wifi/ . If this method is working for you, the app will also work.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ch3ckm4t3:
The app works on 4.3 but "Scanning always available" has to be unticked. Maybe you can force wifi to go offline while changing mac?

And input is buggy. Your app does not accept a number as the first character, only A-F. Try out 001122334455.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjbr2:
Thanks for the feed back. A new version of the app (1.1) is being uploaded fixing the bug in the edittext box.

I've just upgraded to android 4.3 and will test the issue with "Scanning always available".

Hey man, thanx fur stepping up to the plate and making a functional app for this very handy purpose. I'm gonna try this on my Nexus 7 Flo (2013). I'm curious to know if you ever came out with an updated version of this in light of the bug reports., but

It might be a pipe dream but I fantasize about being able to set it up to run whenever connecting to specific networks and the option to have it generate a random MAC for that. It would also be awesome if there was an option to have it run at startup for those who'd like that.

Worth paying for, actually=)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gregstarns:
Ive been looking around for a while to find ways to talk the GSM module with AT Commands. There seem to be a few ways:-

1) open a line using tapi the "cellular line", in datamodem passthru mode , getting a comm handle using lineGetID , write and reading commands.

2) open comm port 2 (which then blows up the phone normal comms) and writing and reading (found in the serial comms bit in this forum).

3) open comm port 9 (the virtual comm port) and reading and writing.

My problem is however that all these actually run code with out returning any errors, but i can not get a response from modem. Ive tried Dialing and just inquiring with

"AT\r\n", and would expect back "OK\r\n" like any normal modem. Has Anyone got this working or got any ideas? The forum hints that AT commands are possible but doesnt actually show you how..

Ill be grateful for a reply.

Thanks.

( for newer roms, with wmodem.exe )

the trick is to send this ioctl after opening com2:

DeviceIoControl (hCom,0xAAAA5679L, {0x84,0}, 2,0,0,0,0)

( with {0x84,0} I mean a buffer containing these bytes )

you will be talking to the gsm together with the rest of the phone.

to silence the RIL layer, send this ioctl to the RIL1: device.

DeviceIoControl(hRil, 0x03000314L,0,0, &rildevresult, sizeof(DWORD), &nReturned,0)

looking at serial3.dll, 0xaaaa5677 and 0xaaaa5678 also seem to be

valid ioctls. - I have not experimented yet to figure out

what they do.

COM9: is used by rsupgrade, to update the radio rom.

( I sort of figured out how the protocol works, but have not been

able to actually send them through com9, I documented what I found on this page.)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AndrewJCook:
I have been struggling with this for some time also. ok, so I opened COM2: and got my hCom to pass to

DeviceIoControl (hCom,0xAAAA5679L, {0x84,0}, 2,0,0,0,0)

and continue with the normal Read/Write functions (the same as writing to, say, COM1:)

... but still no response!

Do I also need 'to silence the RIL layer'? if so, where do I get hRil from for:

DeviceIoControl(hRil, 0x03000314L,0,0, &rildevresult, sizeof(DWORD), &nReturned,0)

Thanks

Re: Tapi ??

Look at your hard disk - "C:\Program Files\Windows CE Tools\wce420\POCKET PC 2003\Samples\Win32\Cellcore\CeDialer\"

this is a dialer example. Uses TAPI.

Hi,

I was reading whole thread.. and found at many places that we can send data to virtual communication port, that is COM9, now what is that and how to open that and how to send - receive data from/to that.. please let me know...

1) open a line using tapi the "cellular line", in datamodem passthru mode , getting a comm handle using lineGetID , write and reading commands.

how you write and read from the comm port ?? can you please explain briefly... ??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] IIIu30uD:
In this topic and some others allready wrote. Can you read or only write?

1)You must say to RIL to drop COM-port (look DeviceIoControl)

2)Open COM2 for send commands

i dont think u need COM 9 , im pretty much just using Com2 to send At commands .... i'm not too sure what the virtual port on COm9 does... maybe anyone wanna help ?? Maybe its to access data ?? during a datacall ??

OK wait a sec !!!! Are You saying that i should use

1) Tapi to establish a data call through COM2, by dropping RIL

2) Read data from COM9 the virtual port

I was pretty sure TAPI didnt need RIL to be dropped off as just by using the TapiMakeCall function i was able to establish a call. How would i establish a data call and read the info ??

couldn't able to open COM2

Hi,

It seems i got a basic problem. COM2 port of my i-mate is not opening. In these discussion i found, first I have to disconnect RIL using COM2. Infact many of here are discussing on the same. but no where i can see the code snippet which disconnet the RIL using COM2 so that i can access it for AT commands.

Hope you guys are already crossed this huddle by this time. It would be great help if you can post that piece of code.

Thanks for you all, most of the post I found to very useful and accurate.

Pramod.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itsme:
in these 3 projects it is shown how to open com2.

itsutils/dll/gsmdevice.cpp

xdaunlock/gsmdevice.cpp

tstmodem/SerialPort.cpp

* first send ioctl 0x3000314 to RIL1:

* then send ioctl 0xaaaa5679 to COM2:

note that this works only on the wm2003 and older devices, on wm2005 it seems to be a different trick. .... which can probably be found by looking at how wmodem.exe opens the comport.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] awm129:
any new developments on getting this to work with WM 5.0?

COM2 won't open on my device ("the requested resource is currently unavailable").

When I try to open the cellular line in DATAMODEM passthrough mode I get an invalid bearer mode (even though getDevCaps reports that the cellular line should support LINEBEARERMODE_PASSTHROUGH).

Is the source for wmodem included in PB? I can't seem to find it...

I'm going to try that getSerial RIL function next. Anyone have any other ideas? TIA!

I'm trying to get this to work on a Universal btw
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] awm129:
what does the IOCNTRL code to COM2 accomplish in the examples above? I understand that the IOCNTRL to RIL silences RIL, but what is the point of the COM2 instruction?

It looks like COM6 is the COM to use for WM 5.0. I can send commands and read responses on this port. The only down side is I had to disable RIL in order to do it. Obviously not the best solution...

It also looks like that only one handle to this port can be opened per system start. Even if I close the handle and try to reopen it, I can't read data the first time and all attempts therefafter result in "this device is no longer available". A soft reset corrects the issues...

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] justjackyl:
Let me tell you from experience that this A100 is **** unless you put CM10 on it.

Acer did a great job of ruining this tablet with their ICS OTA update.

If you have a blast with FCs and a boatload of app compatibility issues, namely HD/THD games that even my god damn LG G2x that's stuck on Gingerbread/CM7 will play, by all means stay stock.

Now if you want to see what the A100 is REALLY capable of, do some reading, pick ypur ROM, and flash your chosen CM10 setup once. It's not going to accelerate EMMC failure that much quicker and the performance and just in general useablilty gains are a great payoff.

Justjackyl's two cents here.

OK OK OK !!! Geez I'll flash a rom,just don't blow a head gasket!! :D

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] das_webos_transformer:
Oh and to everyone, I think I theorized a way to keep it from bricking, I flashed a lot ALOT and it didn't brick, it died when I finally stopped using it! And the reason why, I think, is the work godmachine put in. The emmc cap erase work (or more not of) I think is why. When I switched recoveries and stopped running that glorious kernel, I think that's when it happened. SO IN CONCLUSION use his kernel and recovery religiously and I think you'll be OK. I might, probably, could be wrong but that's my theory. I did finally get the warranty taken care of and we sent it out Tuesday. So I might be back ;)

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] justjackyl:
The emmc erase cap was a holy mary play effort put into the kernel based off of a brick bug on a samsung device, and sadly does nothing for us.

I stick with pios stock kernel. As pio told me, god machine had messed with the voltages for overclocking and stuff and his kernel was not quite finished yet. I personally have nothing but probs with his kernel sadly.

Sent from my glorified LG pet rock™
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Yeah that addressed an issue we don't even have, it was a just in case thing, we never figured out if it's a command or what that causes it, but it seems to stem from usage, the heavier the usage the faster it occurs, usually starting with /cache as it's almost always wiped for Rom flashing. If you want to keep it alive longer, pick a Rom, flash it, stay on it, don't wipe.

Keep in mind mine died in under 4 months, so consider the amount of wear it went through being with a dev vs say a power user who flashes maybe every few days. I was flashing up to 8 a day. Then consider a normal user, stock, maybe rooted, but doesn't flash roms much if at all, they last way past the warranty period, which sucks for them but shows it's a usage thing, heavier users wear it down sooner.

My moms is already a year out of warranty, yes, it's almost 2 years old, hasn't bricked yet, bone stock when we got it, then ran one of my early cm10 builds, now one of my last, still does fine. Battery is trash, but it's working. If it survives long enough I may even inherit it lol

Tapatalked from my HTC DNA
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
Mine lasted only about 2 months before the first brick, however it was a "refurb". I wasn't flashing it that much, but it did happen on a day that I was constantly flashing. The godmachine kernel runs like a dream on mine so that's what I've been using. I'll probably use this tab until it bricks when out of warranty.

BTW @Pio, I see you are a recognized contributor now. Congrats dude, and much deserved!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] das_webos_transformer:

So I was reading through the dev. thread started by Cl3Kener regarding the ROMs hes working on and the age old topic of build.prop changes came up. Someone mentioned a tweak that increased performance prompting the question "Why don't devs include the build.prop changes?". A reply back basically said that most build.prop changes don't actually do anything which is why they aren't included in the ROM. We all know that SOME build.prop changes can improve performance but most do not. I just wanted to share these articles with everyone regarding which tweaks do something and which don't. He does a good job explaining each entry. I learned a lot from it and thought I would share:
