Whenever i scan or try to find the mac address it always returns null

Can you provide your calling code so I can run some tests on it? The local device's mac address will be hidden as it is a security feature in android.

This happens because Android hides local network MAC addresses for privacy reasons. There are some work arounds but nothing with the latest versions of Android :(
