Hi,
I'm posting this here because I'm kind of in a hurry and I might get a better answer here. I'm translating an Android phone, and it's full of commands in very broken English. So I ran across this term (mock) that I've never seen in such context and I want to know if that's the actual name or it's just broken English for 'fake' (fictitious).
This is the description of the function:
mock location
Create mock location sources for testing. Malicious applications can use this to override the location and/or status returned by real location sources such as GPS or Network providers.

'Mock' to me is this: sticking your tongue out and make fun of the stupid so I don't get it. The term 'fake' is also used so it somebody might have overlooked at it and use 'mock' instead, or it's a different process. I'd appreciate any help.
It means it is not a real location obtained from the GPS.
mock location is the actual term used to allow you to specify (I believe in the android emulator) a location seperate from what you're actually at (to allow GPS on the emulator, when there is actually no GPS hardware preset, used for testing purposes)
Thank you so much to the both of you!
I know this is an old topic but with everything being said do we want the "mock location box checked on or unchecked off??

If you want to accurately get a pinpoint of your location you want it off.
If you want it to tell you strange locations like Antarctica then turn it on.
If the phone can fake locations randomly, surely it can also fake location on demand to wherever a user wanted?
This would be extremely helpful for apps which are location based. i.e nba league pass.

No, this is referred to in the emulator (on a computer) not the actual phone.
I have never seen my phone fake a location randomly. Talk to the NBA about blackout restrictions.
Thank you to All.

first for "allow mock locations"
Hi all!
I got a bluetooth gps that I sometimes use it and sometimes I used the phone's built in gps. To use the bluetooth, I need to enable the 'allow mock locations'. To use built in gps hardware, I believe I need to switch off the 'allow mock locations' setting.
However, to keep turn on and off that setting everytime I switch between bluetooth gps and phone's gps is not very 'comfortable'. I wonder, is it ok for me to leave the setting enabled all the time. Will it affect the accuracy of my location when I'm using the phone's built in gps?
Thanks.
If it's an emulator function, why is it's switch on the phone?

oh .. maybe to turn off the phone's GPS when connected via USB to the computer?
If so, its a strangely-labeled thing!
Thanks for info everyone!
I was looking for information regarding mock location and found this article very much helpful. Actually, I am developing an security application which includes mock location...
Do not get it to work ...omly when connecting usb ... and its says wireless on wifi when its on usb and tethering mode ??? not really wireless is`nt it ?? don`t get it ??

I'm guessing that the reason many apps (i.e. Twitter, Weatherbug etc)won't install has to do with missing location frameworks. In most of these cases, the app even has allowances for functioning without location services. I'm guessing that if this problem has been solved before it's going to be one of the other devices sans GPS which has been hacked (so Pandigital Novel, Cruz tablet etc). Has anyone seen anything along these line? I'm doing some hunting around now.

In Settings, there should be an option to use wireless networks for Location. Seemed to work fine on my Pandigital.
The NC has a modified settings panel and there's no location setting unfortunately.
Huh....well, I'll start looking into this once I get mine tonight as well.
It does appear to be the location services which were the problem, and this thread has a fix:

I just added a bunch of apps to the "work" list: basically all the stuff that didn't work because it required a location check.

But does location services work?
I installed the suggested files and was able to install Google Latitude w/o problems. Problem is that location services is not working, and Latitude asks me to enable it via the device's settings. Of course B&N was kind enough to leave location services out of the modified settings page. Anyone have a solution for this?
You could try pulling settings.db (the same settings.db you have to change to enable nonmarket apps), and enable it there manually... then push it on the device again.

i tried this already. in the "secure" table in settings.db, i changed location_providers_allowed from gps to network. this had no apparent effect.

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to tether the wifi based location data to the gear (running null) from a phone. I know it is possible to tether the GPS data (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47857358#post47857358), but this will require a lot of power on the phone. Wifi needs a lot less power and works for most purposes good enough in big city with a lot of wifi access points.

I am also interested with this,

Hi,
I am also interrested in having my location available on the gear without having to drain the battery using gps or have to start/stop the gps tether on both phone and gear when I need it. So having done some android development I tried to put together a small app that enables you to use three modes for location tethering, off, wifi/cell or gps. The wifi/cell updates every 5 minutes if the location has moved 100 meters or more. The setting can be changed on the phone or on the gear. I have tested it on my stock S4 and gear with null_13 so it may not work in other situations and as it is my first test I do not guarantee it will work in all situations or that it will not crash your devices.
The app must be installed on both phone and gear, it is signed with my debug certificate so you must enable app install from untrusted sources.
This is my first contribution to the community so I hope I have done it in the right way.
Regards
Martin

I must have something else going on. I can't get the "old" manual way of Share GPS to work either. It used to work but now it doesn't. I know this is off topic but I'm having trouble with Autoremote BT as well. I'm working in another thread to get it working but since both don't seem to be working, they must be related to my BT connection but for the life of me I can't figure out what. Everything else seems to work great, I get notifications, the stock weather app updates correctly, and other items like mini gallery and pedometer work.
Feeling lost and confused.

Let see if we can help you getting my app to work by first looking at the app status. What does the title in my app say on the phone and on the gear (sorry to ask, you did install it on both right?) when you run it? If it says "Gear connected" and "Phone connected" BT communications work. If it says "Waiting for connection" there are problems opening the BT connection. If it says "Restarting" the connection has been made and then lost.

They both said connected and as I would make different selections it would change on the other device. But no actual location service on the gear (as mentioned, the previously working Sharegps app also isn't working but also shows connected).

Ok, good! Next check that I can think of is that mock locations is allowed in developer settings on the gear and Use GPS is checked i the phone settings.

Very Interesting. Installed and working!
Edit: NOT Working, Still has ShareGPS running. Once that was turned off Gear no longer gets location, Withing Maps it says "Waiting for location" when I try and get it. All other settings are correct.
Edit: A restart of both devices has fixed the issue. (But needed to wait for the app to update)
Would be nice if we could have it update our location at specific intervals.
New version of GearLocationBridge
Hi all!
I have been using my app for a week now and found some bugs that i fixed. I also added settings for network location update frequency. You can now set the intervall for updates from one second to one hour and the minimum distance moved for updates to occur from none to 1000 meters. Updates are sent to the gear if both criteria are fulfilled. Be aware that network location might not be available everywhere, so if you don't get a location on the gear when using network location that is the most probable reason.

Great job bud, you should get your hands stuck into a tasker plugin !
Thank you fOmey, good idea to make it a Tasker plugin. I took a google crash course on how to make a plugin so there is a new version on github that should work with Tasker. I haven't used Tasker myself so I have only done some simple testing creating a task and triggering it.

No that was already turned on. I could not figure it out, So i just tried a full reset again. now it works. ODD not sure what is different this time around, but not going to complain.
So I just discovered the magical world of tasker, and am loving it! Totally worth the money, and one of the best apps to have (the best if you know how to maximise its use)! I have been experimenting a bit with it, so I don't have many profiles. I'm sure many folks here will be using tasker and would be having some great profiles, so I'm looking forward to hearing some suggestions! The profiles I use are:
1. WiFi off at night, from 00:45 to 08:00, except WhatsApp, Play Store, Quora
2. Airplane mode at night, from 00:30 to 07:00
3. Use of interactive CPU governor when using Real Racing 3, and revert to lionfish governor after exiting app(Kernel adiutor profiles do this for me). I also added a condition to use auto-rotate when playing the game, and revert to portrait orientation after closing the app.
4. Auto-sync every two hours, from 08:00 to 20:00 (I would like to improve this to auto-sync only Gmail, would welcome suggestions on how to do this from any tasker experts out here )
I would love to implement more profiles and automate my phone, so looking for ideas.
Need a tasker profile which can disable my mobile data only for some specific apps.it means If I start those apps then my mobile data would automatically disabled and when I close them Data service should be enbled.If u can help on this then That wud be very helpfull
Nothing very fancy for me - right now just have it turning on my wifi hotspot when it detects my car's bluetooth connection so my stereo can use the internet.
It sounds like you are taking it pretty far, @varunadi. You should check out https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker for more cool ideas.

I don't know if you can disable mobile data entirely (not just background which Android can do already) for just certain apps.
Perhaps it would be easier to use something like Netguard.
I've never used it but the description says "Applications can individually be allowed or denied access to your Wi-Fi and/or mobile connection."

I was actually going to suggest that as I have it installed already but when I tried it didn't work.
The "Mobile data" toggle was unavailable because it claims I don't have root. However, I'm definitely rooted and there's no listing (saying denied or otherwise) in SuperSU for Secure Settings so it didn't even ask for root. I'm not too surprised as SS hasn't been updated in over a year and a lot of the Play Store comments mention mobile data toggle specifically not working either (among other things). Too bad as it was pretty powerful and of course I think I paid for it right after its last update.
Not getting SS working for me might just be my problem and perhaps someone else can get it going.
I was also going to suggest [APP][2.2+][ROOT] Toggle Data 5.0 (xda-exclusive free version) but then I read more about what @anks095 said which was "can disable my mobile data only for some specific apps" so I'm guessing he just wants certain apps restricted and not all (although the next sentence seems to say otherwise but I might be reading it incorrectly). I'm not too sure that can be done via Tasker/SS - my guess is that it's an "all-or-nothing" kinda thing for mobile data so the VPN thing might be the only way.
I use a similiar app called automagic but some of the things that I got my tasker like program to do are: lockscreen enable/disable through wi-fi at trusted places (don't like geofencing due to battery), when connected to the bluetooth of my car. Auto silent 5 min before a meeting, but if not connected to my smartwatch then vibrate. And lastly sms emergency location request where my family can send a keyword and my phone will automatically send location.

How is the lockscreen one working for you? I find the built-in SmartLock to be really unreliable but when I tried to do lockscreen stuff before (last year) there was some bug in either Tasker or Secure Settings that would sometimes keep your screen black with just the nav buttons visible present. I'll have to re-try now.
That sms emergency request thing sounds cool! Can the recipient open the location in Maps to see exactly where you are?
Without issues I set it so that it clears the password. Makes it so that I have to swipe to unlock. As for the location, yes it sends coordinates and the user in the other end taps it to bring up Google maps.

Thank you very much - clearing the password was the key! I had been trying before to disable the keyguard entirely so I wouldn't even have to swipe but that's where the problem/bug came in. Thinking about it that makes more sense to have at least a swipe because I'd end up calling people from my pocket by mistake. So thanks again!
Tasker...hmmm. Bought it, but much to complicated for me. Macrodroid is much easier to understand and can also do complicated automation with a normal user friendly interface. I tried to like Tasker, but the more and more I tried the more stupid I felt.
I have recently flashed an AOSP ROM to my LG G4, coming from a stock Nougat ROM and previously stock MM. On both previous versions I was able to use Profiles with Location contexts (turn on/off wifi, set volume, etc) with no problem. Now the location contexts have stopped working but the other ones seem to be working fine. I have location set on high accuracy, and all the permissions granted for Tasker, and the other apps which use location work fine. I have enabled logs but when I run them there are no errors, the profiles with location context simply don't seem to have any input triggering them. Any suggestions?

Ooops. It didn't post. Lol. Here..
All u have to do is make the profile task and tap play button. That way it will tell you if Tasker is denied/granted SuperSU rights. No need to install secure settings anymore. Just tap Grant to SuperSU. Also, check your SuperSU app as sometimes it denies Tasker automatically

All u have to do is make the profile task and tap play button. That way it will tell you if Tasker is denied/granted SuperSU rights. No need to install secure settings anymore. Just tap Grant to SuperSU. Also, check your SuperSU app as sometimes it denies Tasker automatically

The problem is not executing the task, as for example in my home profile I was able to replace the location context with Wifi Near. The problem is that I cannot implement profiles relying on location as apparently they don't work.
But anyway, I tried setting up the profile with location context, played the task but I got no request to grant SuperSU rights, and in SuperSU app Tasker does not appear, neither as granted nor denied...

You have to use an action that has "Use Root" and check it, I think.
Are you just using Tasker location contexts, or AutoLocation? I never had good luck with the former.

I was only using location contexts, for example for when I get home my WiFi turns on, the ringer and media volume are set to a predefined level...
Meanwhile, I reverted back to a stock ROM and just as before everything works well. When at home, as soon as I set my home location as a context, it turns green and executes the task
Could you post more details about your profile? What do you use for location context? Log?

The profile I use is very simple, when I get to my home location, Wifi is turned on and Media and Ringer volumes are set to high. The location context is my house without GPS. I can't provide logs of the problem as I have changed ROMs to a LG stock one and I no longer have the problem.
I can confirm that, for example, wifi near triggers just fine from MM to N and now on O.
My guess is there is a a permission not enabled, or the location service doesn't have wifi scanning enabled. Something along these lines.
To post your profile (always a good idea when it's not working as expected) make sure it's named - not a default name assigned by tasker. Then long press on the name to highlight the profile. Go to the 3-dot menu and select export -> Description to Clipboard.
Then you'll be able to paste it. Be aware, it easier to use pastebin then link to a post here. If you paste in a post here, the forum software will convert all semicolons with characters after, typically "on" and "off" to emoticons making it very hard to read.

Hello, have some troubles with hiding on betting resources. My main goal to provide fake location for bet365. Main problem Firefox browser always asking ´´Allow bet365.es:443 to use your location?". Somehow I need to confirm this and provide fake gps.
I use Magisk+Hide my app list+Fake location and turn down all geoservices on my phone. Sure I try different option and proxy, but it give me a same thing - block my account.
If you have any ideas have to resolve please wrote on DM. I`m ready to cooperate.
Have you tried using a VPN to change your IP address instead of faking your GPS location? That might be a more effective solution. Additionally, some browsers have a built-in feature to prevent websites from accessing your location, so you might want to check your browser settings to see if that option is available. Good luck with resolving your issue! By the way, have you considered trying out some online casino sites? canlı casino siteleri can be a fun and exciting way to gamble from the comfort of your own home.

First of all, I need to hide my current location complex and all available option for Magisk hiding are tried
Thanks for sharing this solution. I'll definitely give your method a try.
Thanks for sharing your experience and seeking help with hiding your GPS on betting resources. I'm relatively new to gambling and sports betting myself, but I understand the importance of privacy and finding workarounds.
While I can't provide a direct solution here, I recently discovered a sports betting site called Bet365 that seems reliable. They offer a wide range of options and could potentially provide a solution or guidance for your situation. You can check them out at https://betcanada365.ca/sportsbook-review/bet365
What I use is Fake GPS Joystick and set this as my a fake mock location in developer setting, then you can either use the Hide Mock Location xposed module, or a Smali editor to fake mock locations.
With the Fake GPS Joystick app, you can set your location anywhere on the map easily, set up automatic routes, waypoints etc.
This way the whole system thinks you are at the set location and no app knows its not the true location.
Superbetting is also a reliable sports betting website
