[Completed] External Bluetooth GPS without using "Allow mock locations" - XDA Assist

I was wondering if there is any way to get a Bluetooth GPS to work without having to allow mock locations in the dev menu? I have found quite a few programs that allow me to do it with the setting on but nothing that has allowed me to do it without it. I do have my phone rooted so I was wondering if there was maybe a work around. Thanks in advance for any help!

[Q] Need help with Tasker and GPS setup

Hello dear readers,
i just stumbled upon a problem with the app "Tasker".
I want to use a task that enables GPS when a specific app is started.
The problem that occurs is that Tasker doesn't even let me implent the option for GPS. If I tick the option to turn on gps I get a popup message that Google changed things like that GPS can not be changed by apps without user input. And if I want to use this option anyways I have to use another ROM, e.g. Cyanogen.
Then i get redirected to the options again.
I dont understand why I get this error message, because I AM using Cyanogenmod.
does anyone have a solution to this?
Thank you!
Seems no one has an answer.... :/

[Q] Gps not working

Hi everyone, I made this post because I hope someone can help me out.
I rooted my Nexus 5 to give "Fake GPS" admin rights because I needed to do something with it.
Once im done, I uninstalled fakegps, but my GPS is still not working. It constantly try to find out my position, without managing it, even with enabled wi-fi. I would like to avoid flashing a ROM again. Thanks to everyone who reply this!

Similar issue with WiFi can be fixed with the following:
1. Delete /data/misc/wifi and /data/misc/dhcp
2. Reboot
Give it a try.
Still not working, it endlessly looks for my position without getting it :/

[Completed] [q] screen standby app - please help!

Hi all,
Having some real trouble with this app, for some reason it will not work on my rooted nexus 10. I'd really love to use it to get my screen to turn off when connected to hdmi.
I've selected the settings to deactivate the screen when connected to HDMI but nothing seems to happen. If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated, I've already tried to contact the developer with no luck. I've already double checked my device is rooted so that doesn't seem to be the issue. It does have a "debugging" function, maybe that would help providing information on whats going on?
Otherwise it seems to be a great app which I would love to get working.
Cheers,
Tom

Question about spoofing location

Dear all, I am writing here because I have a very specific issue and I need to deal with it myself.
I have Xiaomi Poco x3 nfc, and I love this phone to bits. I never bothered rooting or flashing any roms so far because I was always happy with stock. Recently however, an issue has popped up.
Grindr, an app I use regularly, has recently pushed an update down our throats that cuts off your access if you are spoofing your location. This is a hazard for me, because I cannot have strangers know exactly how many meters I am from them. So far, I've been able to use mock gps fine, until this update. Mock GPS works even if your phone is not rooted so I used that. However, it no longer serves me now
How can I workaround this? Would root/installing a custom ROM, help with this? Is there a superior way of spoofing your location that Grindr wouldn't be able to detect? Please advise, I literally have no clue how to do this, the last phone I rooted and flashed was the Galaxy S lol. (Original one)
Appreciate the views but a response would be helpful. I can't be the only person on this forum interested in spoofing location

The app is detecting that you are spoofing the location. To bypass that in unrooted device, you will need to decompile the apk and remove the checks which do that. If you are in rooted device with Magisk, you only need to install this LSPosed module: https://github.com/ThePieMonster/HideMockLocation
If you can't find a modded apk or made one yourself, you will need to root the phone
Ok thx for the help. Will Grindr detect magisk?
Or maybe are you able to provide me with a modded Grindr apk?
Lastly. I'm in stock. Never rooted or unlocked anything. How do I get started?
