I'll reply myself.
In a CM7 ROM It's enough to open "terminal emulator" and type:

Quote:
su
bdaddr [new bluetooth address] && hciconfig hci0 reset


and it worked.

Default Follow up on altering the BT mac address
I'm in a situation where I have two Arias both on CM7.2 now, checked and they have the same BT mac address. I'm trying to pair them to a Panasonic home phone that can connect via BT to the cell. It will take one or the other but not both. I think if I change the mac on one of them I'll be in good shape.

Did it matter what you changed it to? Did you roll back to the stock ROM and see what that was to make it correct for your device or just pick something random? Thanks!

Edit: I followed the steps but it didn't keep my new address when I reset the phone. Any thoughts?
