How can I disable "Allow Mock Locations"? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I use two gig based apps to make some extra $$$: EasyShift and GigWalk. Since the lastest VZW update this past weekend, I get a force close when trying to launch the EasyShift app. The error message is "The 'Allow mock locations' develops setting must be disabled for this application to work" I have spoken with Verizon tech support Tier 2, Google Tech Support and Samsung Premiere Tech support - all with no helpful fixes. I have never rooted my phone before and would prefer to leave it stock. The developer settings don't have the simple on/off feature as I have noticed researching on the internet. If anyone can help I really would appreciate it. I am running a Verizon S7. These apps are a great way to pick up some extra money and I sure could use it. Thanks!

I am German but I think the option is available in the developer settings. Just check this again

It is called "Pseudo-Standort-Apps" maybe you have the choice to choose none instead of your app

Option not working
Sorry, but this option is not the solution. I am also using the Galaxy S7 edge and after choosing "no Apps" for the mock location the message still appears. In my case it is the Ember game that is still not working.

Endomondo Sports Tracker 7.1.3

After update the app does not work as well as it was. Maybe someone has the old 7.1.3 apk?
Thanks.
EDIT:
Or maybe you have any solutions.
The app puts gps dots on the map and connects them with a line, this is how it measures the route. After the update the dots are so far away, that it cuts corners. We rode with a friend he tracked 32 Km, me - 26. Pretty significant difference. He was using the older app and I had the new ver. 8.
I can not confirm, works very well for me.
Maybe this will help you - Look at whatapk.com - There you should find it

You can see an example of my problem here:

The blue one is endomondo, the red one is where I drove. I stopped at the red light (the black line) and the turned left. I know gps does not always match satellite view, but look how it cut the corner.
It's most often not the app's fault, but the spotty GPS strength. Sport trackers use very frequent updates so even a 2-3 sec outage can "cut corners". That's why I switched to RunKeeper - it does not fix the spotty GPS marks, but at least you can easily edit your route afterwards, unlike Endomondo.

and keep all enabled , as i kept in my phone it works
do note , it doesnot work when screen is LOCKED , but it works when device is charging even though if screen is locked
If you have a 1GB Moto G 2015...you cannot use OK Google from any screen.
The option itself it NOT present in 1GB US models. Not sure about other regions, or even if it's a slightly different build than 2GB versions.

Thanks! Was driving me completely nuts.
Thank you ... i also was looking for it ...
it was partially encircled; and all topics i found was from having too much notifications...
but at least now i know what it's for..
also, in dutch version of nougat the translation is done really bad... it's translated to 'save data' but with saving as writing it on storage instead of using less... (lol, save all your date is going to make the phone unusable after a few months imho)
watch the video to fix
go to setting
connection
Data Saver
and turn it off
that's all
Thankyou

Lost the 3D effect of 3D Parallax Wallpaper

I bought the 3D Parallax Background App on my Galaxy S8 a few months ago. I was really happy with my purchase; the wallpapers are beautiful and I had a perfect 3D effect! (like all the video about this APP in YouTube)
Then I discovered the application "3D Hologram Background" which uses the same system but with more theme. I installed it, and there, the 3D effect disapeared. The wallpapers move well according to the gyroscope of my phone, the wallpapers are animated, but since this installation the 3D effect has completely disappeared.
After that I tried to uninstall applications, reinstall, reset the phone and even changed ROM (currently on Renovate Ice) but nothing does and I can not find any option to check.
Looking for a solution on the Internet many times, some people said it came from a certain update of android (5.1 I think) and we are now in 7.0.
Any solution? I'm desperate Thanks :fingers-crossed:
Well isnt the 3d effect achieved by overlapping 3 layers? Are you sure that both of 3 layers are enabled?
Yes I am sure !
In settings app set effect strength at 100%

Yep and the effect strenght is in 100÷ but i think the problem come from me, the first time I see the 3d effect it was like a real 3D effect like the 3DS for example but because my eyes have become accustomed i don't see it anymore .. I don't know. Its the only explication I've founded haha
[emoji23][emoji23]ok!

2) Close completely messenger (better using the task bar)
3) Restart messenger and open settings (press on your picture on the left top corner)
4) Activate the first option (DARK mode) of the list
This worked for me (I am on the latest firmware G965FXXU2CRLI) and the dark mode was kept after the last update to version 205.0.0.18.110
I hope this can help
There is no harm in trying but I do not know if it works for alla
please let know providing a feedback
lol, works
Yes works
