Description

From the listing uploaded by “leoburgos”.

This is the donate version. If you like this app and would like to see future improvement - please donate. You will also get a high priority support if you have any problems. +++ Remove free app first +++ Don't work with WECHAT and INGRESS - these apps use an advanced mechanism of location detection ((( +++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.
