Enter the engineering mode, then you can find "internal" item and BT Mac address is under it. You can change to anything you want.

1. type: *#1546792*#

2. choose "Internal"

3. Type as pwd: *#0807#

4. choose Bloototh MAC address (or BT Mac Adress - I don't remember correct name)

5. type pwd: 1234

6. Set MacAdress

7. Execute

Of course you do it at your own risk!

THX for FAQ to chance the bluetooth mac adress.

after a rom update my mac adress on omnia2 was also FF.FF....... and after this i cant make a internet sharing with bluetooth to my notebook.

after chance to a "normal" bluetooth MAC adress now is working fine.

any means of finding the orignal mac address?

My bluetooth mac address is like (UK I8000 2GB):

60 d0 a9 ca 3? c?

(you can use hex, any 0-9 and/or a-f instead of ?).

So a valid bluetooth addres would be 60 d0 a9 ca 3b c3, for example.

A mac address is only an identifier.

The first 3 bytes are manufacturer identifier (in this case 60 d0 a9). So, basically this means you can use practically anything. Even 12:34:56:78:9a:bc is a valid mac address.

I also found out that my wireless mac is FF FF FF FF FF FF. It works like that, but I'm pretty sure it had a good value previously.

Anyone willing to share their first 4 bytes of the wifi mac? (Or you can PM me) Thanks!

LE: Scratch the above. It's showing correctly after soft reset

If anyone needs a valid wireless mac, they can use 00 21 19 9B A? 5? (? - see above).

What would happen if you have to each other 2 devices with cloned MAC addreses and they try to connect them with a third bluetooth device? Or even among themselves?

Would the world collapse? :P

:huh:

For those of you that can't enter in engineered mode (like me..keep getting the message ...failed) you can manually change it with a registry editor..

IT Located in HKLM/SOFTWARE/SAMSUNG/WIFI - That's where it located in my Samsung Omnia Pro GT-B7610

sorry this is for wifi mac adress...my bad. :D
