I typed into the terminal this:
ip link set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
the XX for my numbers and so on.
But it says permission denied.

This seems like your terminal doesn't have root access. Is your phone rooted? and did you type su
to get to the root user first? On my phone you can tell if you're using root privileges by checking the prompt, $
= no root, #
= root.
Root is needed so if you have that turn on your wi-fi and write
su
iplink set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
and it's done.
("iplink" without space between)

You actually need to change some stuff in the bcm4239 driver to allow it to read the mac address from somewhere else. The above kernel reads the file /data/local/mac.dat.
