I just don't understand. How is it useful???

How can I access free internet?

Please tell me in some detail.

Thanks
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joel Chan:
same question!
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rishabh22:
hmmm u cant access free wifi by changing the mac address(well not exactly)

ill give u my own example:

there are several wifi hotspots in my college but only the hostelers who have a registered mac add are allowed to use that. So if i use a mac that has already been registered by someone i can access wifi which otherwise i wouldnt have been able to connect to ;):D:D so that is how i gain by changing my mac address
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidGadha:
But I think two devices having the same MAC address can be a problem ie. if the the one with the original MAC address powers on the devices and uses internet and at the same time some other person has also spoofed his MAC address and connected to the network. The one who connects first to the network will be able to access it and the other wont. :D
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rishabh22:
yeah even i had thought about that and it may cause a conflict but luckily i dont have a problem with that cause the other guy doesnt use his lappy at the time when i need wifi :D and so i have no idea how the wifi would behave when both are switched on at the same time
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xasder:
You think wrong.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] developer++:
Its true.Two devices on the same network cannot have same MAC addresses and there will be a conflict.

You are blessed :)
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xasder:
Again. You are wrong and don't know what you are talking about. There will be no conflict. Why don't you try it out if you don't believe me?

There is no conflict if 2 wireless devices with same MAC address connect to the same AP. Unlike some here, I've tested it and know what I'm talking about.

Two devices with the same IP address OTOH will cause a conflict when one device sends gratuitous arp (usually on boot) and the other device sees it.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] developer++:
You can also be correct. But in case a network uses a layer 2 device there should be a problem. Layer 3 devices use IP address for routing so there should not be any problem as such.

Try using a layer 2 switch with two devices having same MAC address
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joelstitch:
When I do this my phone instalntly disconnects and reconnects with the original MAC Address. Im using a rooted HTC Thunderbolt from Verizon.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timofteandrei:
yeah. that tutorial doesn't work! it's just disconnecting the phone from wireless and then you have to turn the wifi off and then on but the result is the same. i'm really interested in mac spoofing because i have some problems in my faculty. i mean there are 3 wifi routers but there is someone who's banning our macs sometimes and it's killing me inside.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] infinitum_omega:
If ifconfig won't work for you, try ip link as in the following post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1901171

Also, my usage of the mac spoofing is also to access my college network using my laptop's WIFI mac
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] post-mortem:
I stayed at a hotel for 7 weeks, which advertised free WiFi in the rooms. Turns out, they give you a login which only works with 1 device. Their routers keep a log of which MAC addresses connect, & what IP they're given; idle entries are purged every ~12 hours. Additional logins to connect multiple devices were $10/day! My solution was to connect with my laptop, then spoof my laptop's MAC onto my phone. Of course, they could not connect simultaneously, even with static IP set.

BTW, for my phone, I had to use "eth0" instead of "wlan0". Also, didn't need to do down/up.

I think there is already app for this, SpoofMAC or something :/
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hu_ciao:
not all MAC addresses are created equal

While true we can use any address for the NIC most of the time, there are times this will cause problems.

The first half of the MAC address, MAC Address Block Large (MA-L) designates the device maker. This is also commonly called the Organalizationally Unique Identifier (OUI), and may be a cause for rejection by some hot-spots. They may see spoofing as suspect behavior :cool:

Get my script for MAC Address spoofing if you would like to use a valid OUI. The script has a list and directions (oui-get.txt) for making one yourself.

Script: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51072203&postcount=214

Update: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51193724&postcount=217

If you do make your own OUI list remove your device manufacturer from the ieee's list before parsing to gain more protection from attackers.

Some may not need the down/up as "post-mortem" noted. Comment it out of the script if it causes trouble.

The scripts can be used with script running apps like Gscript, if you prefer, so no more need to type into terminal.

As Left4DeadMW points out, there are several "apps for that" at the google store. None of them mentions the use of valid OUIs though.

Check it out for yourself :)

Why don't you just buy one of the ones on the Sears Outlet locations and have them ship it to you? There are several folks that have done this and got a relatively new (customer return) unit for $279 + local tax. Although all of them have stated that you will have to call the store after you've purchased it online (as a store pickup) to ask them to ship it to you as the website doesn't have a method of requesting shipment.

[G Tablet General] srmathers:
They are on sale at AMAZON for $369.99
[G Tablet General] :
Thinking about selling mine. Bought it brand new (none of that $279.99 crap) just over a month ago. In very good condition, the only "problem" with it is that on the back of the tab there are scrapes due to normal use. However, screen is clean no scratches and I have never dropped it or banged it against something. Will include everything that came with it including OG box and a PNY 8GB sdcard that I bought at sears along with the tab. I submitted the rebate for the dock but it has yet to come, will also include that. Let me know if interested. Willing to provide pics of not only tab but also receipt so potential buyer confirms I bought it new and already sent the rebate for dock.

Hope to hear soon. Thanks!

I also have a case that was meant for an iPad, that is just a tad too big.( SOLO Classic Collection iPad and e-Reader Jacket with Zipper, 9.7 Inches, Black and Blue, CLA132-4/5) $35 for it. I'm going to return it to Amazon but if you want it you got it.

[Fascinate Themes and Apps] skipper2:
Hello,

For some reason my Tunein radio shuts down when the screen turns off. I am not using a task manager. I have a Fascinate with the following:

ROM: jt's Superclean DJ05 v0.9

Kernel: Gechnik's StupidFast 12.19

This never happened when I was on DL01. The only thing that I can think of is that the SuperClean ROM has some sort of a built in task killer that shuts apps down when the screen times out.

I have tried uninstalling and re-installing.

Does anyone know how I can resolve this?

Thank you.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] skipper2:
WOW! Ok after trying everything that I can think of I tried installing a task killer that I used to have about 2 months ago before the ROM and kernel updates. Advanced Task Manager from INFOLIFE.

After installing it, I loaded Tuneinradio, then opened the TM and added Tunein to the ignore list and now it is working fine. Hmmmm. That is very odd since even when I did have the task manager installed I never had it set to auto kill apps.

Seems like even after a full ODIN flash of DJ05 and then updating the ROM and kernel, this somehow remained active on my phone and was using auto kill.

Well if anyone else comes accross this issue, here is the resolution.

my first thought would be to check when wifi is set to turn off after the screen goes off, if you're running the radio on wifi it is possible that your wifi is disabling itself when you lock your phone to save battery, wish is good unless you're streaming music.
