Hey Guys,
Did anyone manage to successfully mock the location without getting detected - With Magisk 24.1 and a recent root setup ?
I am still unable to systemize the fake GPS app. Termux doesn't show the list of my apps. Any idea how to convert it?
Edit: I figured out but the system converted app force closes.

Converting the app to a system app helps in this matter ?
I am trying it for pokemon go actually. If that fake GPS app is converted to system app it allows you to use without the need for choosing a mock location app in developer options. Also there is prevention of A-gps finding location and resetting your gps. So the game will not detect that you are mocking location.

Anyone please help if you have a solution...
I have the same problem. I think it's because the phone not root yet. Im try using it for playing pokemon Go..lol
Mine is rooted and closed installed
Mine is rooted and Xposed installed .. I even tried using lucky patcher to make it work but any location mocking software or module just doesn't work. Please anyone give any solution.
When you say that it doesn't work. Do you mean that a fake GPS app you're using isn't working at all, or are you saying that xposed module 'mock mock location' isn't working because its not hiding the fact that you're using a fake GPS app.
If its the later, then when you have xposed open it should tell you if its setup correctly and when you go into the modules section, make sure there's a tick next to mock mock location to ensure its enabled.
Apk won't install
The apk file isn't installing in the first place. Any app which is meant to tamper mock locations doesn't install. Mock mock location icon won't show neither wud it reflect on developer options. Even if those are ticked in modules no app icon appears I even tried launching the app using lucky patcher but it simply would launch even from there please help me out.
Not entirely sure what the problem is. There should'nt be a icon for mock mock locations. It's all managed out of xposed modules. Unless you're talking about an app, I think it's called hidemymock. If so uninstall it, as it maybe conflicting with xposed module 'mock mock locations'. First troubleshoot xposed modules, by making sure it's installed correctly and there's no warning messages. Make sure to enable 'mock locations' under developer options in phone settings. Then, install a free location spoofer and configure that. Then, check its working by opening Google maps, and seeing where you are. There's a few location spoofer apps out there, if one doesn't work for you, try another.
Why fake gps go isn't working for my oppo f1s?
Mine is a new phone and not rooted Why no joy stick is appearing on the screen
And how to select the mock locations app on oppo f1s
Oppo's Color OS 3.0 is based on Android Lollipop. The option to select mock location app in developer options is for Marshmallow and newer Androids I believe.
I have R9 Plus and also play Pokemon Go. You need marshmallow (which definitely won't come from Oppo updates) to use GPS-faking apps without root (and use the magisk workaround to play PoGo in a rooted phone)
I got your problem
Me too I'm not seeing the joystick of fake gps
But I don't know how we can repair it
Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to stop a specific app from ever being able to obtain location information from your phone?
The app states that it can access "approximate location (network-based) precise location (GPS and network-based)."
Is it possible to just have location disabled when using the app and force stop the app when wanting to use GPS? I wasn't sure if the app would have access to cached information on location even when location is disabled or if there's a possibility it could run in the background when location is on and access information.
Note: This app isn't available for public download on the app store, which is why I didn't include the name of it.
I don't currently have my phone rooted. But, if it would help, that wouldn't be an issue.
I have a Note 4 that is on Android version 5.0.1.
Thank you for any assistance!
Greetings.
I'm trying to spoof Google Maps location sharing into showing a fake GPS position to the other party. I tried several fake GPS apps, and while they are running Google Maps shows the spoofed location, however - Location Sharing stops sharing and is frozen on the last (real) location that was shared before the spoofing started.
I'm open to any ideas how to achieve this.
Thanks.

I don't know if there is a better answer but maybe you can try a mock gps location app that constantly changes its location (with concomitant altitude changes) every few seconds?
The free gsf free google free ad free highly rated mock gps location app I use that has a setting for random motion (for example every 3 seconds it moves 30 feet from a given starting point) is Lexa (but I'm sure others exist that also will fake motion and altitude over time).
[Lexa] Fake GPS location
All you do is enable Developer Options and then set the "Default Mock Location App" to Lexa (or to whatever fake GPS location app you chose).
Here's what Google Play says about the Lexa fake-GPS location app.
Teleport your phone to any place in the world with two clicks! This app sets up fake GPS location so every other app in your phone belives you are there!Has Tasker support and can be started/stopped from command line (See FAQ for details)+++IMPORTANT+++Be aware that after using FakeGPS you may find your location LOCKED TO THE LAST MOCKED LOCATION EVENT AFTER UNINSTALL FakeGPS!It's not a bug and your GPS sensor isn't broken. There are two ways to fix this issue:1. Install "GPS Status" from the Play, launch and get a fresh GPS fix. You may need to repeat it several times with 30 min interval.2. Start FakeGPS, set your real location and leave it so for several hours.You may combine these steps. The issue will disappear in one or two days - be patient.For ROOTED devices you can mock locations without enabling "Allow mock locations" option. To do so please use Root Explorer or other similar app and move /data/app/ru.lexa.fakegps~1.apk to /system/priv-app or to /system/app (for Android 4.3 and older). Then change apk permissions to rw-r-r and reboot your device. If you find apk in /syste/priv-app disappears after reboot it means that your devices has S-ON mode enabled and so restores /system folder aftear each reboot. Please google how to switch your device to S-OFF mode.If you can't find ru.lexa.fakegps.apk in /data/app you may find it at /mnt/asec/ru.lexa.fakegps/1.apk. In this case you should copy and rename it to /system/priv-app/ru.lexa.fakegps.apk.

Even though I'm normally set up with my Location radios off, I like trhat this app can startup at boot and run constantly (whether my Android Location is on or off).
If any app asks for Location (such as Wi-Fi debuggers), then I let them get the fake location. But if I need the real location, I just open up the fake location app and press the "Pause" button.
When I'm done needing my real location, I just open up the fake location app and press the "Play" button to start it up again. (Of course, that jumps to the fake location, and randomly moves from there, so it's not perfect.)
There's also the FOSS ad free app named "Private Location" which seems to have a bit less functionality (but perhaps more privacy?)
F-Droid Private Location
GitHub Private Location

The one I use does that I think (you can set the update period if 3 seconds and 30 feet is too fast or too slow for you, I think).

The others are looking for similar problems and will be able to find hints
I can suggest to use XPrivacyLua and define of fake lacation for Maps or define correct location but with predefined (meters) inaccuracy.
Just use GPS Emulator. I use it all the time.
The application icon is green with a black hat on it.

I agree. I feel it's better to add to an existing question than it is to create the exact same question as a separate thread. It's easier for people who search to find the answers and for others to add better or more detailed solutions.

Also, sometimes an app name isn't unique, or, it has multiple locations, so I always strive to add a link to the app so that the person searching has an easier time finding the suggested solutions.
To that end, here are the three fake-gps apps with spoofing of location movement (with concomitant altitude changes) that were suggested (in the order they were suggested).
Fake GPS Location, by Lexa (free, no ads, no gsf, rating 4.6)
XPrivacyLua, by Marcel Bokhorst (free, no ads, no gsf, no rating, needs rooting)
GPS Emulator, by RosTeam (free, has ads, requires gsf, rating 4.6)
I'm not sure if I found the correct links, particularly for XPrivacyLua which seems to need rooting and which also has a lot of links that point to different aspects of the program.
XPrivacyLua on Google Play
XPrivacyLua on GitHub
XPrivacyLua on xda
XPrivacyLua on Xposed
XPrivacyLua on FairCode
If others can confirm or correct the links above, everyone else will instantly benefit who search for and find this answer.
Hello,
My play store keep changing from do not update apps to auto update on wifi.
I have several app that i keep on old version.
How can i block playstore from changing this setting automatically
Thanks for help guys
Playstore is a bloody pain.
Set to auto update to wifi only and disable wifi.
Use ApkExport to copy your apps so you have them.
exactly a real pain... always switching the setting on after set up all stuff.
looking for a solution or a workaround to disable this or disable my apps from auto update

Disable Playstore or Google Play Services (Playstore is dependent on it).
Both constantly running in the background... needed or not.
You will need Google Play Services though for Gmail and other apps occasionally during the day.
Use a firewall to block it.
Use a package disabler.
I use both...
oh thanks will do that on play store. Any good app freezer you recommend ?
For phones other than Samsung this might work:
"Owner App" version from
Home - Package Disabler
The only NON-root solution that let’s you disable any unwanted packages that come pre-installed / installed with your phone / tablet.
www.packagedisabler.com
Karma Firewall from Playstore
thanks
im rooted with Lsposed, will use greenfy

I figure out that the play store get default settings after each restart. So something must reset it configuration ... I need to find whom

I'm not sure what's causing that. I can package disable Playstore, firewall block it and it's settings are the same after it's enabled again.
If it's data on the phone is getting cleared on reboot that could do it... 3rd party cleaner or power management.
I don't use Playstore much and all my apps/updates are backed up for reload.
In part because you can't get older versions on Playstore (if the app doesn't disappear entirely) and because Playstore downloads are a slow, tedious pain that use up too much time when reloading.
Don't want Google's junk in my face...
On my note 9 I had a fantastic app that would let me disable specific services, broadcast receivers, activities or the entire app.
I can't remember what it was called but it's definitely not package disabler pro.
Also this app didn't require adb or root.
Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately not.
The UI was very simple. White background like package disabler but when you clicked it app it would show tabs for each section (services receivers etc) and you could individually disable parts of the app without disabling the app itself.
I feel like an idiot for not backing it up. I found it like a week before I switched to a note 10+
Well I found the app but it doesn't do what I need anymore because the dev was "sick of dealing with Samsung".
It was ccswe. Do does anyone know an alternative that can disable broadcast receivers, services etc without root? I know it's possible and there must be a working app out there.

Would NetGuard be what you're looking for? There's an XDA post about it
Are you rooted?
Ice box is another good app to use to freeze system services
