[ROM] [6/6/2012] CM7 for the Droid Pro based on GB
- Thread starter JackpotClavin
- Start date
Happened to me too, but a quick reboot fixed it.
Here's the MAC address fix for your Pros running CM7. If you have had an issue connecting to wifi, it's probably because each time the device's wifi is restarted, a new MAC address is generated which will clog up your router as you can easily run out of IP addresses to lease to each and every new MAC address that's generated each time your device's wifi is restarted. The link can be downloaded here. The instructions are simple:
1. Flash it in clockwork no need to wipe anything
2. "Activate it" by going into the terminal emulator app, typing "su" (without the quotes) then typing "mac-address-fix.sh" (without the quotes). A bunch of weird symbols should come up, but that's normal.
What this does is it auto-generates and writes your permanent MAC address to a file called called nvs_map.bin under /data/misc/wifi/nvs_map.bin. It will remain there and your MAC address will remain the same unless you wipe your /data whereas you will simply have to redo it
Note: if you get an error message in the terminal after doing the fix, make sure your Wi-Fi is turned on and you're connected to a network
For CM7, download --> CM7MAC.zip

You installed it via clockwork and everything?
Yup, flashed via "choose zip from sd card"

I have the November build installed. I have no idea whether older or newer builds have this issue.

NEWS! About autosync issue! (see my previous post)
Seems that is radio related...
With my american droid pro with n_01.53.00r I have this issue.
with my european (radio n_01.1b.03r) NO!!
)
It is possible?

I'm running american droid pro with an unlocked baseband, and the 6-6 build. I haven't noticed the sync issue you are having.

Maybe the argentinian kernel with this radio? mmmm.....
That's correct. I remember the first CM7 builds from that era had an identical problem.

I used Jackpot's CM9 version the last several months and recently flashed back to his CM7 to see what had changed. Wow! Fast, stable, and battery life is awesome. ICS is great but I'm actually starting to think this is better for everyday use on this device.
