[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
Thank you anyway already for your suggestions!

How do you mean that exactly?

I would try to, but what process exactly do you mean? Changing the offset of the misc image at 6000 and 8000? At these offsets there's no zeros, but already a MAC address, so what should I change?

What do you mean with stock-based? I got my H85020s_00_OPEN_EU_OP_1114.kdz from lg-firmwares.com. I would have considered this the stock ROM.

Another thing I forgot to mention: the last few times I installed Lineage via TWRP, I always ended up in a bootloop to TWRP, which I could only escape with

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc bs=256 count=1 conv=notrunc

As I said, the first time I got this bootloop, I was so stupid do

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc

which was likely what caused all the trouble...:rolleyes:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] totalnoob34:
I mean, everything that happened to you happened to me.

Just repeat the whole process again, overwrite what may be there.

It is. You can also find those in the Development section. Stock-based is a rom based on stock, like Fulmics, for instance.

Same thing. Damnit.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] totalnoob34:
First of all, that's a pretty thorough research. Thank you very much, we need some light here.

I'm positive I followed the same comment you did, so I wiped /fota as well. I'm not home, so I can't pull the image from there. I'll report back on how it is once I have access to a computer.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nitkam:
I followed the 10 steps. And revived my phone. Interesting thing is the mac addresses for wifi and bluetooth I specified in the hex editor is not the same I see on the phone now. Is that expected?

Thanks a bunch !!!:good::good::good:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] waylo:
The whole point is to get a mac address that is exactly what you specified, so that is not in the ordinary. Does it change with reboots?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nitkam:
yes, the wifi mac address is changing with every reboot.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
This sound similar to the bahaviour that I observe. In my case the specified MAC address in the misc partition also had no effect.

Did you once wipe your misc partition?

Do you get the WiFi MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00 after reboot when you reboot your phone with wifi turned on?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nitkam:
NO, I do not get 0 MAC anymore after hexediting the mix partition as mentioned here. But instead I get random MAC address now. Before hexediting the Misc partition I used to get 0 MAC address, which was not able to connect to my wifi router. At least now I am able to connect to my wifi router. Also worth noting is that only last 3 bytes of the wifi MAC are randomized, the first 4 bytes of the MAC do not change. Also worth noting that bluetooth MAC address is staying constant across reboots.

My guess is that, there is a checksum which needs to be fixed as well to get Hexediting of the misc partition to work properly.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
[MENTION=8933641]nitkam[/MENTION] , just out of curiosity: did the problem occur after wiping misc (to get out of a bootloop)?

I was tinkering a bit more and what I observed is:

When installing Lineage OS + SuperSU with every reboot the config-file gets created which specifies the MAC address to 0

cat data/misc/wifi/config
cur_etheraddr=00:00:00:00:00:00

When deleting the config-file BEFORE turning on WiFi on the phone I get a MAC address.

When installing, LineageOS + SuperSU + Open GApps Pico the WiFi MAC stays 0 regardless whether I deleted data/misc/wifi/config or not (misc partition has the MAC address set at offset 6000). I couldn't get WiFi working with GApps installed.

I used:

lineage-14.1-20180315-nightly-h850-signed.zip

SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip

open_gapps-arm64-7.1-pico-20180318.zip
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nitkam:
FYI, I have not rooted my lineageos. Another interesting thing worth mentioning here is that, even though the wifi MAC address is get randomized on every reboot, the bluetooth MAC address is staying constant. I wonder why? I would expect both to get randomized or none.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] waylo:
That's the same as me when I had my /misc wiped and didn't realize the wireless IP address kept changing. If the bluetooth MAC kept changing, none of your bluetooth devices would pair after each reboot, which would be much more of an issue and immediately noticeable.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] absorbident1:
for anyone who does not know to push with ADB you must enter current file path like adb push C: users/documents/misc-fixed.img /sdcard/misc-fixed.img. also for SU permission typr su c- before the push. one more if you dont want to type all theser codes into phone use your notepad and copy all text to file then use root browser app to copy and paste to your terminal app
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ki11aprime:
what do i use to back up dump? terminal on my phone or adb
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
I don't know if it's possible to back up your misc partition from your phone terminal. I did it with adb shell with my PC. If you are in TWRP then you can just run

adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc of=/tmp/misc-dump.img

leave the adb shell and pull the image:

adb pull /tmp/misc-dump.img

If Lineage OS is booted then you need to have the phone rooted and run su beforehand:

adb shell
h850:/ $ su
h850:/ # dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/misc of=/sdcard/misc-dump.img

and then pull the image from your SD card.

I didn't see any differences in those methods, but it was speculated before that it could make a difference, if you are doing the backup from TWRP or Lineage

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bonotheedge:
Does anybody know if flashing a stock rom (through twrp) will fix the issue with mac address of 00000000?

Thanks
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nimueh:
Doubtful, I already had the issue when I was on stock and before I flashed the 1st custom rom.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
As I mentioned in a previous post, when I flashed stock ROM with LGUP I got a MAC address which changed randomly after each reboot.

But as I also described that (at least in my case) it's possible to get a proper, although changing after reboot, WiFi MAC address on Lineage by restarting the phone with WiFi turned off and then removing the config-file (/data/misc/wifi/config) before turning WiFi on.

Not working on my H830??

I followed to a T the above instructions and I am still showing 00:00:00:00:00:00 on my H830?

---------- Post added at 04:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

I also tried this but I still can not connect to my wifi and it shows 00:00:00:00:00:00 for mac
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mojo Dodo:
How exactly did you do it?

Once again, what works for me on LineageOS 14.1 is:

- turn off wifi

- reboot

- open terminal:

su

rm /data/misc/wifi/config

(SuperSU needs to be installed for this, of course)

- turn on wifi
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] SirDigitalKnight:

Yep... tried that exactly and still no connection

Did anyone have a problem when following [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] 's instructions that their misc image was corrupted? HxD editor refuses to open it.

Edit: nvm I had to use /dev/block/platform/soc/62400.ufshc/by-name/misc

However, the image was entirely 0's and changing the mac and dd'ing it back didn't work. Anyone else with the same problem?

Edit 2: I didn't save before I transferred the image so I just did it again. However, my wifi would connect, but it still would not work as my mac address was still zero. I realized that I made a backup of the misc image while it was still bootlooping in twrp using dd, so I used dd to flash that back and then used the right command from autoprime.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] totalnoob34:

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] SirDigitalKnight:

I have been trying all day now and I still cant get it to back up to the SDcard... I search all over the internet and nothing seems to work.. all I ever get is the same message for just about ever command I try: "No such file or directory"

If I go back to stock rom will the Mac address be fixed?
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jamgooandyou:
So i had issues with my lg g5 [wifi kept auto turning off when i clicked on] and i get a popup message on startup, managed to install a fresh stock rom but still the same issues [minus the vodafone apps]
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] waylo:
That sounds unrelated to this issue. May be a hardware issue if on stock, you get the same problem still.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] shadow52:
I think I'm in the same boat here. At some point my router stopped allowing my G5 (H850) to connect and it turns out the mac address is being changed on each reboot to some variant of 00:90:4c:*. In my /data/misc/wifi folder I have a config directory but no config file.

As I understand it, once the misc data is removed or corrupted there is no way to restore it, even by reverting to a stock ROM or refurbishing using LGUP. Could someone on this thread more knowledgable than I ( [MENTION=2684188]autoprime[/MENTION] [MENTION=4628223]totalnoob34[/MENTION] ) confirm this? I have an old nandroid backup made way back in 2016, which I think might be before my misc was wiped (although I only enabled mac filtering on my router recently so I can't be sure). Might it be possible I have the original misc partition backed up in there somewhere?

So far all discussion has been focussed on the WiFi/MAC issue, but could there be other issues arising from this? I would guess that there must be more information in the misc partition than just the WiFi/BT macs and that deleting it must affect other functionality. For example I raised a ticket on the LineageOS JIRA regarding an issue with the bluetooth headset profile. I performed a factory reset in order to confirm that the bug was in the ROM and not due to third party applications I had installed or my particular configuration. But if we are unable to restore misc, is it actually possible to do a true factory reset?

[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] DonChino:
@jeffsga88 @autoprime

Thanks to both of you for your insight on this issue; but unfortunately it seems either solution does not work for me.

1) I bought a user LG F800L and it seems they borked the phone and I am able to reimage and reroot; but it seems MISC is all 0s.

2) I tried to do jeff's solution; but you cannot create a file called CONFIG if there is a folder called CONFIG in the root directory. I am on Android 9.0 with the F800 image and there is a folder called CONFIG, so it will not let me place a file with the same name.

3) I wish I could try Auto's solution; but is it possible to use someone else's STOCK MISC image? My misc is all 0's and it seems placing values will not help according to other posts here; but what if someone uploaded the MISC image from a F800L or F800K?

I am really annoyed with this constant MAC change with every reboot.

Thanks.

@DonChino

...if you ever find a fix, let us/me know!

I've got a Lenovo M7 tablet that doesn't have a 'misc' directory in

/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name

so I'm not sure whether than means the Lenovo tablet does something differently.

I tried the suggestion of a 'config' file (there is no directory) but it doesn't work for me. The tablet is getting a device MAC address from somewhere but it's changing on reboot. As I assign IP addresses ny MAC id on my router, I've had to use a static IP on the tablet as part of the WiFi connection settings.

Hello :). I had this problem on my wife's opx very annoying the issue is with the roms in most cases but, it's normally because they add pixel stuff bundled with the rom... Because everyone loves pixel? Anyway. If you go into build prompt with an app you can download it on Google play.

Check to see if your ro.product.name says oneplus X and nothing else. This was my issue. Weird... I no. But anyway.

If it's not see if anyone can call you. Assuming you have full signal.

Try another phone or contacts app from Google play? The above worked for me but it might be different for you. Try switching brand name to pixel? There is a guide somewhere what to change in build prompt.
