Change MAC address via ActiveSync

---

Don't do it unless you know what it is and it is your choice
First please backup all gsmdata using backup_GSM.bat and restore using restore_GSM.bat if things go wrong, hope not to
Use at your own risk, take no responsibility for any RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY MALFUNCTIONS OR OTHER ISSUES THAT MAY OCCUR
1. Connect active sync, I connect it in guest mode
2. Run Read_MAC_adsress.bat
3. Save your old MAC address (the file orig_MAC.bin) at good location in your hard disk
4. Open newMAC.bin in any hex editor (it's your MAC address in reverse)
5. Change it as you want and save it
6. Run Write_new_MAC.bat to change MAC address
7. If you want to restore the old MAC address run restore_mac.bat
8. now soft reset
9. just wish me luck If this works for you and I hope it will

To check your MAC address: go to wireless settings > advance > MAC > see it there

I'll make an app to change it soon after the exam if this works

long live Palestine

am I on the black list again?

this works on my device, and there is no risk if you backup all gsmdata using backup_GSM.bat and restore using restore_GSM.bat, but the save the gsmdata.bin in a good location

it works try it

I udpate it to the new itsutils tool and it works, I used to use the old version

Perhaps a foolish question, but what is the benefit of changing the MAC adress?

another stupid question...

If you are hacker of wi-fi connections, you can find permitted mac adress..
After you can change mac adress of your device and enter to wi-fi network.. (if wi-fi network has shield with only mac adresses)


Mac adress using for network identity and its unique on the world..
IMEI number using for gsm device identity..

Thanks for explaining!

Dear sir
Please please, next time before asking a foolish question, use search and you will find a lot of answers, and not only in this forum.
Or at least read the first line (don’t do it unless you know what it is).
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for this answer I couldn’t answer better
Some people set their access points to certain MAC addresses, if you knew them, you can access the network (hack) for free internet at least in my case.
The problem: there are no close WiFi networks near my area, but I hack a net café using this method,
Thanks for replying

nice, thanks for this
