Any one can integrate Geolocation API in to Google service framework.
Check this link

We need this for lot of auto detect location base apps.
There are many people that would like to have this so if you have fixed this then maybe posting the instructions would be helpful
I think he was asking how to do it?

Quick question, what can be modified for stopping certain services from running? Example: I kill a task, and a few hours later there it is again, yet I have not launched the application associated with it. (Mostly AT&T's garbage).
with Linux and Mac its fairly simple...but new to the android os (generically speaking)
use an app posted on here by metal head its called autostarts or autostart just search the forum. does exactly what you want.
thanks much appreciated.
secondary question where is the list located in the device itself or is it located in some preference file?
Condensing into one thread various queries on above subject :
1) Is MB865 capable of GLONASS or is it a hardware specific feature?
2) Why is Google Earth not available for India in Google Play when we can use it on the pc here? (just looking for thoughts / comments)
3) Why is voice guided navigation not provided for India (Garmin Navigon, Nokia Maps have it & Nokia also has a Nokia Maps multi platform mobile browser app) - (just looking for thoughts / comments)
4) Can anybody specifically share their experience for Navigon India as they are charging mucho bucks for their apps & need to know is it worth??
5) What according to you (especially senior members) are your favorite offline maps apps?? Share the names please.
6) Any other GPS tips / tricks would be appreciated.
Thanks!
I could be incorrect... but I believe that you would need a GLONASS chipset in order to access that Satellite Coordinate system
Please someone please correct me if I'm wrong!
On the lack of Google Services in India... look around for some articles on this... there just may be one that explains the lack of said services... either that or Google just hasn't worked out a deal yet.
I don't live in India, so not much help on the Navigation quality of India Maps....
Oh... and Google Maps has a caching ability builtin to the Labs in Settings. This should cache a 10 mile area that is selected.
Hope this info helps and good luck finding a Nav software you like!!!!

@nephillim - came across an article on the forum somewhere on an modified "Play" store app allowing install options for countries not included for some some app's (but beta bugs & hence not so keen). Appreciate your other inputs. Thanks!

Never a problem to help a fellow XDAer out!!!
Hey all. First time posting here. To get the technical data out of the way, I'm currently running an AT&T-flavored Samsung Galaxy S2 SGH-i777 (not sky) with the Cyanogenmod root @ ICS ver 4.0.4. The Cy mod is 9.1.0-i777.
Before I dive into the deep-end of developing a solution, I wanted to ensure a project doesn't already exist to address what I (IMHO) consider to be an issue - privacy and general Google distrust. Please don't take offense if you're a Google fanboy and please don't tell me Google is my only option.
While I realize I can choose to merge [or not] contacts and other data with Google, has someone GA'ed an open source (or otherwise) method to use one's own server or personally-controlled cloud-based option for synchronizing personal information? Perhaps somehow tying in an existing IMAP account (like a Horde API for lack of a better similarity explanation) with an rsync engine at the server for push/pull abilities?
I researched SyncML, but it seems that I would only be able to incorporate its code into a more top-level coded solution for alternative syncing methods.
Thanks for any/all feedback.
Regards.
No one?
So I'm guessing either no one else has thought about a third-party handling your information and doing something about it or just plain apathy?
Hey all I have created a new GPS spoofing app called "Fake GPS Controller" available on Google Play. (can't post link due to new xda account registration, you'll have to search for it)
It has a built in floating joystick which allows you to directly control where you want to move (simulates walking or running). Also, it does NOT require "Mock Locations" to be activated in developer options if you are rooted and install it as a system app to the /system/priv-app folder.
Hopefully this doesn't run afoul of the forum rules, yes I'd like to get some attention for my app, but also some feedback, and discuss improvements.
I have 100 codes available for free download, I will post some below, and can post more or do some sort of BETA if there's interest. Lastly, please if you download it and you like, please rate the app favorably. Thanks!
Oh, one more thing, the app has issues with rubber banding location on some? newer phones (I think it's an Android Marshmallow issue). From my research I don't think this problem is specific to my app, it sounds like all the spoofing apps are having this problem. I'm actively looking for solutions to this problem and would love to fix this in my app. I've read posts suggesting disabling Fused Location provider but would like to find a more simple approach if there exists one that I can incorporate directly into the app..

[SOLVED] Digital Compass [built in hardware] is it needed for Google Maps or anything else? Or is the built in hardware GPS enough?
Was looking at the Moto G Plus (4th Gen.). It does not have a hardware Digital Compass.
There was some discussion both ways:
Google Maps will work. Google Maps won't work.
Without a hardware Digital Compass. Will a Compass APP from the Google Play Store along with the built in hardware GPS be a good enough replacement or not?
No links just a quote.
From a xxxx xxxxxxxxx:
"GPS shows location. It will do this on a map in offline mode if you download map data. It will also show you your movements and direction while moving.
But if standing still without a compass, nothing will show if you facing north or south."
