Look for "Samsung Location SDK" and disable everything within that; let me know if it helps!

--EDIT--

Look for these too:

LBSSystemMonitorService

GeoFenceService

Failing that try using Xposed and downloading "Mock Mock Locations" module.

XDA is the right place for all of that information! This is what I used back when I hate a Samsung Galaxy Note II. It'll make your life a lot easier and I recommend donating to Mark (the creator of the tool) if it was of use

Hey, jone of the items you mentioned are in system.
[Android General] Murtaza110:
I have an S6 Edge W8 model and I don't see those options either.
[Android General] mrwib:
Thanks alot :) I´ll head in later and let you know how it works out!
[Android General] :
In that case I'm out of ideas, sorry. I don't own an S6 so don't know what services link to FusedLocation
[Android General] tyracz:
Any idea why when I move Fake GPS to system APP it disappears ?
[Android General] mrwib:
So - Im pretty sweaty right now. I have been searching my entire household for a micro-sd card, which the root you provided me with requires. However, I am out of luck, no micro-sd anywhere to be found. Is there anyway to get around the whole "install the zip on the micro sd" thing? - I know this proberly isn´t your area, but I thought u might have an idea since you seem rather expirienced :)
[Android General] albertlin3:
I can't disable fusedlocation service.

DisableService has root access, and it says that DusableService has been granted su permission on an interactive shell when I try to uncheck the box, but the box still remained checked.

What am I doing wrong?
[Android General] AhmedMorra:
This message appear when i try to convert FakeGPS to system app

Error

Error:

[Android General] Gh3ttoKiLL4:
Search for BusyBox in play store. This app will let you install BusyBox on your device. Then try again.
[Android General] AhmedMorra:
Thanks it worked,

Is there any free alternative to FakeGPS ? i can't buy it.
[Android General] HD87:
Works like a charm! Only going to use it to refill my pokeball, as it does take away what really makes this game fun and unique. Thanks for the tutorial

Edit: After re-enabling the location services and then going back to disabling them, the Pokémon Go app puts me at the location but says "Failed to detect location" and nothing loads.. I've tried rebooting several times after each step.. Hmm.. It's puzzling
[Android General] phoenix10:
just a note !! (i have a Xiaomi MI4 mobile phone with android MM)

i tried also to download Fake Gps Pro and lucky patcher in order to just teleport to near Pokestops in my town

but it still dont work

i just get the error

Can not Detect Location

the weird thing its when i open the game the player its at the correct spot as i configure from Fake GPS, but arround are nothing (pokemos, pokestops, gyms, info etc) and i get the error faild to detect location

any idea ???

P.S. i set mock location - Fake GPS and GPS only device

P.S. i cant find "Fused Location" & disable "FusedLocatonService"
[Android General] :
Lucky Patcher is a banned app on here. Do not use it.

Secondly, you should not have mock locations at all.
[Android General] phoenix10:
I followed once again the exact steps and apps as the guide above said...

And am still getting the error

Fail to detect location...

I attached screen shot...

Can anyone help please...

Better App for Spoofing on Android than Fake GPS Free

[Root required] If you want to try spoofing try this Android App where you can even tilt your phone to walk around in Pokemon Go where ever you want. Just start in an area close to you and walk on realistic paths to avoid being detected. Then have fun exploring the whole area :)

Plus its free and does not require the paid "expert mode"

Go Walking Fake GPS Location

(Note: At the moment the worst that can happen is a few hours of soft-ban. I take no responsibility for anyone getting banned using this app. But I use it myself and it works great.)
[Android General] shashank0161:
A little off topic here ,

Instead of using a spoof or mod which may get my account banned.

I play fair by locating more Pokemon in my area.

I have developed it and using it I hope you guys like it too.

I am not a Frontend guy so it doesn't look so good.

I use pokemononmap.com and I am catching more Pokemon in my area than ever before.
[Android General] phoenix10:
Hahaha full of trushy cabutop and omanyte :P
[Android General] phoenix10:
I tried the app but it seems not working as its going too fast and its not synchronise with the game
[Android General] giantsalwayswin:
OK I have a verizon S6 edge and s7 edge, both seem impossible to root, if I were to go buy a cheap phone just for the purpose of rooting and fake GPSing for Pokemon, what one would you recommend?
[Android General] shashank0161:
Hey try opening that on Windows using Mozilla Firefox as it was developed using that and its in sync with the game because I use the Api to show these Pokemon.

If you want to really test it then click the nearest Pokemon and get the Google Map Directions to that Pokemon and catch it.
[Android General] Uglamugla:
Thanks for this tutorial I've been using this for a few days and works pretty well! butThere is any way for disable this for using gps correctly for example? even with the fake gps turned off(making a reboot) google maps can't find my real location. It's bad when you want to using gps navigation like google maps.

Cheers!
[Android General] phoenix10:
So i finally make it happens through my tablet that DONT has gps!? And fake gps Pro ... Now i have some questions..

1. How save is to just make jumps around my city only?? Am living in Cyprus so towns are just 100km far away

2. How to save favourite locations on FakeGps in order to remember them and avoid every time to search for it...

3. Any possibility to add a a walking route with slow move (around 2-5 km per hour) at FakeGps?? There is one straight Road in my town atound 3km and has around 7 pokestops, can i create a route for it??
[Android General] Selo5891:
hi i have a problem. i did the guide and it works perfect i can locate myself wherever i want and the game also doesnt shows up any problems. but when i want to open a pokestop it doesnt appear anything (no pokeballs or eggs) and also if i want to catch a pokemon after the first ball it disappears. does someone has the same problem??

and thx for the guide !!

so guys i have a problem. I moved fake gps to system by lucky patcher. When i read that it was a banned app i tried to reverse so that fake gps will not longer be a system app. How do i do that? Tried to uninstall thru apps from play store but dont work. Help plz

---------- Post added at 10:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:38 PM ----------

cant even deactivate fakegps in the settings. Phone just restarts directly. Phone wont let me do anything with the app:. And now the phone cant even find locations because of the disable we did in the first steps. Solutions?
[Android General] KrisRevi:
problems with pokemon go

So the setup works, im currently spoofing myself to my nearest big city, it's 10 min car ride to get there, at first everything worked (taking pokestops and catching pokemons) but now suddenly i cant take pokestops and ALL and i mean EVERY SINGEL pokemon runs away after 1 pokeball :S what is this? anybody encounter that befor?

---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:59 AM ----------

i have the same, just posted myself befor seeing you had the same problem :S realy want an answer to this!
[Android General] Selo5891:
i think i have an answer to our problem. we got soft banned :/ after about an hour i could take pokestops and catch pokemons again. i think you have to be careful how big your jumps are and how often you jump on the map...
[Android General] Kazi_xx:
I followed this step:

Install FakeGPS as a System App

Using /system/app mover, simply select FakeGPS and move it to system followed by a reboot.

My phone got rebooted and then the app has disappeared, can anyone help?
[Android General] kenzolo:
same here
[Android General] b-k-m:
and can somehow set the route by which we must go, and not a point and a radius which is a random sharp jump?
[Android General] e1forall:
Hi

I have a OPO.. I am trying to do the thing for pokemongo.

As per your setup suggested I only don't have the pro version of fake gps.

I am using free version. After doing the setup still Pokemon Go failed to detect GPS. It's showing in red color at the top.

Please help.
[Android General] JokerFrown:
I have the pro of fake gp but im also not getting proper location.

it says unable to get gps and it put me in the middle of a body of water lmao.

I hadnt turned the game on in hours and I put it a few miles away from where I live, I assumed this wouldnt be a problem.

I followed all steps and have gone to google maps and it shows the modded location but not on PGO

Edit: nvm I tried it again in the morning now it works fine.

maybe I just missed a step, yesterday.

Thanks!
[Android General] karthi2:
I tried this setup and reverted

I tried to revert back the process ... Showing "process system isn't responding " after each boot .. Any solution to this ?
[Android General] JokerFrown:
You NEED the pro version.

the free one uses mock location which tells PoGo its no good.

you the pro which lets you use high accuracy gps and root it to trick it.
[Android General] sequdaz 86:
Hello guys,

i followed this guide several times and still get "Unable to detect location" message on top.

i'm running a rooted xiaomi mi note (miui8), any help would be MUCH appreciated. :(
[Android General] phoenix10:
Its not working on miui bro,

I tried a lot of stuff, but still didn't figure out how to make it work on Miui
[Android General] zakarados:
Worked fine on nexus 5, thx mate.
[Android General] NoVeZ:
Hello guys, so i have followed every step and the app works like a charm

BUT, sometimes my location jumps back and forth to my real and fake location, leading me to a soft ban, i dont really have a problem with that for now but what will happen if Niantic implements Perma bans for gps spoofing?

The only step i couldnt follow was disabling every location service in my phone ( The only location service i found was FusedLocation, i disabled it) Id really appreciate if you could tell me what i did wrong.

1. My phone is rooted and packed up with Limonchelo 5.1 MDSTeam MoD (Lenovo K3 Note)

2. I bought the premium gps spoofer and set it as a system app

3. My location settings are always set to device only

4. i downloaded DisableServices App from play store and disabled the FusedLocation Service plus all Google maps Services (as i said before thats all i could find)

5. Restarted Device

6. My FakeGPS Settings are: Start on boot (Yes), Expert Mode (Yes), Enable Auto Close (Yes), Hide Icon (Does it matter?), Update Interval ( 1 ), Gps altitude ( 65 ), Gps accuracy ( 1 ), Gps Speed ( 2km/h ), Move around fake location (No, just because when i enable it pokemon go is unable to track my location so i keep that disabled.)

Id appreciate if you could help me :)

P.S Flashing Xposed in my phone sounds like a terrible idea to me since i wouldnt know what to do if my phone got soft bricked, so i wouldnt do it no matter what (Im not an expert with phones) :c

Installing fake gps issues

Hey guys, thanks for putting this together for the rest of us but it looks like I'm having a similar issue to a couple others and didn't see a possible solution listed yet. For some reason after transferring the fake gps to a system app every time after the reboot required completes, the fake gps app just disappears and is nowhere to be found....am I missing something here or is this possibly an issue with performing this trick on the galaxy s7 edge? I appreciate any help or info anyone is able to give.
[Android General] sub7m19:
Wont detect coordinates when inputed

It works like a charm, the only issue that i have with it is that it is unable to search for cities, countries, or even when i input the longitude and latitude coordinates. I have to manually scroll through the map in order to select where i want to be at. Is there any way around this?
[Android General] andreas0013:
This is working flawlessly on my M8. However on my op3 websites are showing me my original location instead of the spoofed one. I am doing the exact same things i did on my m8 but websites are refusing to get spoofed on my op3

-fixed it by uninstalling mock mock location
[Android General] Murtaza110:
I'm having the same problem but I found a workaround...

1. Install "Mock Locations" app

2. Use the system app mover to make it a system app

3. Select this app under mock locations

Every time you want to change location you have to do the following (as stated earlier)

Force stop and clear Pokémon go cache

4. Select your location or your path in the mock app. (you can choose to stay in one spot or make a path so you can walk on it with the desired speed.

5. Play Pokémon Go!

Tell me how it goes.

What about move around fake location? Do you figured out best values for eggs?
[Android General] Famous_Ranger:
So 2 questions....

1) How do you make it so I can walk around? Currently I am only able to sit one spot.

2) How do I reverse this process? I would like to also use my current location on Pokemon GO but I can't figure that out just yet.
[Android General] s1ckmad3:
I have the same problem :(
[Android General] Munchkin87:
When I try to move FakeGPS via /system/app mover to system app, I get this error: "FakeGPS seems to be a paid app and therefore can not be converted to system app due to limitations by the Android system".

The docs of /system/app mover als says: "Paid apps can not be moved! Since Android JellyBean, paid apps are encrypted and therefore can not be moved!"

So how did you manage to move FakeGPS? What did I do wrong?

Edit:

What I found out so far:

- JellyBean (which I have) has "app encryption": [I'm not allowed to post links]

- Because of some issues, app encryption was disabled later (that's why app encryption comes ONLY with jellybean): [I'm not allowed to post links]

- here is someone saying I have to give write permission to the app: [I'm not allowed to post links, just google "apps-madeingermany convert paid app to system app"]

- I installed "Root Browser" and was able to set write permission to the apk and also to the parent folder

- but: /system/app mover still throws this error message

Any ideas? (Or should I just copy the entire folder into /system/app ? I'm a little afraid of doing that)
[Android General] s1ckmad3:
[MENTION=7617799]NoVeZ[/MENTION] I found my solution (hopefully this works for you as well). I used App Ops to remove the "Location" permissions in PokemonGo. Ever since then it worked like a charm. Heres link to app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.findsdk.apppermission&hl=en
[Android General] Munchkin1987:
Update:

- I moved the FakeGPS .apk file from /mnt/asec to /system/app.

- looking into /system/app mover: FakeGPS wasn't there anymore

- enable "show system apps" shows me FakeGPS as a system app

- So I went on with the tutorial, but:

After configuring FakeGPS, I started the game, but it told me "GPS not found".

Also google maps doenst find GPS.

Is it correct, that my real GPS doesn't work anymore after all these steps?

I had to enable again the settings which I previously disabled with DisableService app and reboot my device to get my real GPS working again - is this correct behaviour?
[Android General] Drops77:
method works 100%

Only single issue i have is Pokemon Go freezes after about 10 minutes

Pure Nexus Rom 6P

Settings on map makes it run sometimes..i would prefer it move over a set course at set speed, tried ton of othe GPS apps,but they require mock locations.

A List of alternative GPS apps that work at system w/o requiring mock locatins would be nice. Thank you !
[Android General] Drops77:
For hatching eggs,

Keep Distance <100 meters(anything over its starts 'jumping ' and you get a soft temp banned, what it looks like?all your pokemon will run,and all your poke stops wont work)

Seconds >3 seconds(allows for slower walk)

If you add any real time poke mon app works great to evolve quick
[Android General] mosd:
anyone know how to remove fake gps from system apps? the phone reboots whenever i try to alter the fake gps.
[Android General] hmoda_alex:
I did everything it worked for a little time

But then it keeps switching between real and fake location

I've disabled all location services , any other solutions?

I'm using LG G3 stock MM and I've tried it on my friend's Note 3 it worked fine
[Android General] minocin:
What Android version were you using? I do not have the location items to deselect.

I then have to tell the phone to use fakegps and unfortuantely pokemon go detects that
[Android General] cautio:
Guys, the method perfectly worked for me. The only issue I have is that I kinda overdid it with the GPS Spoofing and it has been noticed. I got a soft ban from Pokemon Go. Now, each time i try to use the GPS Spoofing, the App immediately knows that I'm doing it. Is there any way to change that from happening? Or did Niantic find a way to counter it? Thanks in advance!
[Android General] Drops77:
Added Bonus:Xposed

So i did the following,then i installed the xposed framework,then the xposed APK

Then i intsalled the Pokemon Go Joystick module

Mock Mock Module

Do everything as posted,enable mock mock(disables apps from seeing mocl location setting is on)

and launched Joystick works 100% with new update too.
[Android General] BigBoogie:
Had this setup and working fine until the GO update yesterday. Now it grabs the location at launch but I lose GPS after about 30secs. Sometimes it comes back but never for longer than 30 seconds. Anyone else have issue after the update?

Edit: looks like its only happening when "move around fake location" is enabled.
[Android General] upbeat:
FakeGPS is switching between fake and real location. Hoped this would fix the issue:

This is not working for my Huawei P7. It is getting stuck in a boot loop. I cannot find the "LocationServices", I only find the Fused Location. By searching on location.

I have rooted my phone with kingoroot.

Used LuckyPatcher to make fakegps (Free) a system app.

Did the same thing with Disable Service.

I disabled Fused Location, reboot -> boot loop.

I reset to factory defaults, which worked to get my phone working.

Have tried to disable fused location again, to see if it was a fluke. It was not. 2nd time again a boot loop. So another reset to factory defaults.

Suggestions?

I read someone mentioned Lucky Patcher is 'banned', but I do not see a topic here it is banned. When I search for lucky patcher I find other topics on the app.
[Android General] whacco:
Well.. this works. ( Sony Z2 - Rooted )

I used the same method b4 in another game.

Too bad you cant jump continents, USA<->Europe etc..

However, if i start the game and start spoofing my location i can jump citys in 30-60 minutes, hundreds of miles away.

I live in a small town (100k~), So the only option i have is to jump to one of the major citys if i want to get them awesome Pokémons. Soo, If played right, and i dont jump 100km right away, it works just fine.

Dose anyone know if the PoGo recognizes the Wifi connection's city/country location and soft-ban's you if you are outside the target area? If so, cant one use Orbot and route the traffic through it to "appear" in another country, say Germany or france? Anyway... Snorlax is mine!
[Android General] surfinpika:
Honestly, I would at least make it seem like you are actually there. Meaning, not traveling miles and miles in a few minutes, since they could probably catch that and ban you later on.

Just seems like you can trick the game by doing that and not getting greedy. But who knows what Niantic has up their sleeves.
[Android General] dutaahmad:
sorry i got a problem.

i download the FakeGPS via Blackmart, and i push it to system apps, then when i open it, it says "app not licensed" and something like that. can anyone help??

and tell me how to unpush an app with /system/app.apk?
[Android General] pepper-jk:
Hi there,

got a similar problem with my Huawei Mate 7. Stuck in a bootloop after disabling the FusedLocation. Did a Factory reset and tried it again, same issue. I'll try a cache wipe now to see if it boots up. If not I think I need a new solution to the FusedLocation. :S

EDIT:

Nop, need to restore my backup again, no change of disabling Fused Locations on my Mate 7.
[Android General] upbeat:
Like described above, I have the same issue. I have a Huawei P7. Wiping user data did not solve the bootloop issue.

Hope someone has a working solution for us. When I find anything, I will update ofcourse.

Hi, on my lg g4 doesn't show fused location, i disabled all location services, but when i starts pokemon it teleport from my actual location to the fake...

GeoFenceService

LBSSystemMonitorService

LocationService

unifiedLocationService

I disabled all but doesn't work well... Any ideas?
[Android General] battoniko:
For those who have problems (bootloop) aftr having disabled fusedlocation...you disabled the wrong one...same thing happen to me and i had to restore (boot+system+cache+data) from twrp because of bootloop. I have a huawei ascend p7 with android 5.1.1. The good fusedlocation to disable is not the main one but the one belonging to google play services...so not the one in system but the one under system/google play services. Btw it changes nothing for me (i have the soft "mock locations" installed as system app, unchecked mock locations, i chose gps only as the location method (phone unrooted with magisk+phh) before launching pogo)...hope it helped you...still pogo fails to find my location...if youhave any idea, i'll take it.
