mac-address

Can one programmatically obtain the MAC address of a device running Android 6.0+? According to this , To provide users with greater data protection, starting in this release, Android removes programmatic access to the device’s local hardware identifier for apps using the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth APIs. The WifiInfo.getMacAddress() and the BluetoothAdapter.getAddress() methods now return a constant value of 02:00:00:00:00:00. Does that mean it's impossible to get the device's MAC address in Android 6.0+? If it's possible, can you tell me how to do it in Android Studio? Also, this answer only applies

I have found a few examples using Java, however I am having trouble constructing the method to c#. Can anyone please post a straightforward c# example that gets the Mac Address of my device, FOR Marshmallow (6.0). I understand that there are other methods of obtaining a unique Id, I am not really interested in having to import components at this time. I am using Xamarin with Visual Studio 2015. I have these permissions active: ACCESS_WIFI_STATE INTERNET READ_PHONE_STATE The only codes I have tried are the simple methods used for below android version 6.0. Any help is appreciated. EDIT: I do

I am working on the iBeacon technology and I can't find any answer to a particular point concerning the address type. I found the documenation (bluetooth specification) explaining what are the address types but I can't seem to find how to chose between the two types (public and random). Here is an example where I found it (it is a sniffed packet transmitted by an iBeacon on a Raspberry PI) : http://i.stack.imgur.com/QF5gf.png and http://i.stack.imgur.com/NHY6x.png (sorry I can't post images yet because of my reputation) Let's try to ask questions and make it more specific : Since a public

I would like to know if there is a way of having NODE retrieve the MAC address(es) of the server on which it is running. Node has no built-in was to access this kind of low-level data. However, you could execute ifconfig and parse its output or write a C++ extension for node that provides a function to retrieve the mac address. An even easier way is reading /sys/class/net/eth?/address : var fs = require('fs'), path = require('path'); function getMACAddresses() { var macs = {} var devs = fs.readdirSync('/sys/class/net/'); devs.forEach(function(dev) { var fn = path.join('/sys/class/net', dev,

I have been reading a number of posts here on stackoverflow about android not having unique identifiers. But could I not use the MAC address of the device as a unique id? If not, why not? If yes, does anyone know how to get it programmatically (i.e. a piece of code [please])? FYI: My app requires network so devices without networks won't be able to install it. CommonsWare But could I not use the MAC address of the device as a unique id? Not 100% reliably. If not, why not? Here is what Google has to say on the subject : It may be possible to retrieve a Mac address from a device’s WiFi or
