I was still unable to rewrite the MAC address. i tried with the -r command but still came up the same. i am using a Broadcom bluetooth device.

For people who are not able to set anew mac address, i have the Cambridge Silicon Radio bluetooth in my Dell D620 and I wasnot able to change the mac address since it gets back to the original after the reset. However, i tried the command with (-r) parameter and it worked for me. I got the parameter by doing “./bdaddr -h” but i don’t know what it mean, the most important thing is that it worked.

./bdaddr -r xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Hi,
This is useful.This is what I got on using your tool.

root@Workstation:/home/dinesh/bdaddr# ./bdaddr -i hci0 00:23:4E:EB:FB:58
Manufacturer: Broadcom Corporation (15)
Device address: 00:23:4E:EB:FB:56
New BD address: 00:23:4E:EB:FB:58

But, My mac address of Bluetooth didn’t change after reseting

root@Workstation:/home/dinesh/bdaddr# hciconfig hci0 reset
root@Workstation:/home/dinesh/bdaddr# hciconfig hci0
hci0: Type: USB
BD Address: 00:23:4E:EB:FB:56 ACL MTU: 1021:8 SCO MTU: 64:1
UP RUNNING PSCAN
RX bytes:1013 acl:0 sco:0 events:34 errors:0
TX bytes:1347 acl:0 sco:0 commands:34 errors:0

Is there any tool for changing the MAC for Broadcom bluetooth drivers. Or any other problem.

Once again Thanks, I learnt many things from your post

Howdy. I need to change my BT mac on my windows mobile phone. I have my contacts and my new phone (broadcomm stack) doesn’t let me send my contacts to my car’s radio (pioneer avic-d3) but my old phone does, I want to pair with old phone with new phone’s BT mac and send the contacts, that way when I connect my new phone I have my contacts available.

Got any advise or tip for me to achieve this? Thanks!
