What happened to my Bluetooth MAC Address ?

[Guest delphi2009]

Hi all,

After flashing my Omnia 2 ROM to JF5 version (found here on MoDaCo) the bluetooth MAC Address has changed to FF FF FF FF FF...

Bluetooth is working fine (at least with handsfree kit and connecting with laptop), but this is bothering me.

Any suggestion to fix this ? I already flashed the JE5 ROM, as I prefer WM 6.5.3, but the MAC still only shows FF's

Regards,

the answer has been written several time.

it happens when you use the erase nv pda in octant.

so the solution is to flash again without the option

OK, thanks Tylwith.

Next time I flash I will make sure that Erase NV is unchecked. :angry:

I don't think that is a viable solution.

NV stands for Non-Volatile, so it's a thing from the phone (machine) itself, not from the ROM. The solution is to change manually to a MAC... What MAC? Well... unless you have a copy of your MAC, you must copy it from an existing one of a screenshot posted here in the forum :angry:

I could get my hands on my I8000 original MAC, but how would I change it manually ?
