Hi guys.
Just a quick yuck question please. Is there a Unlock With WiFi root app for nougat? I won't the phone to lock when I'm out but not when I'm on home WiFi.
I was using xposed with gravity box and that worked well on MM.ive .I've tried trusted devices but they always need to be on, and home trusted devices means GPS needs to be on draining battery!
Any ideas please thank you

You could try Automate. If you can't write your own automated scripts for your phone (like me) there are lots of ones that are already written, including more than one to keep your phone unlocked when you are connected to a trusted WiFi network. I use it to turn GPS on when I open Google Maps and turn it back off when I close Maps.

Hey guys give this a try and let me know if it works for you.

This worked great for me, better than both the original fixes. Thanks for the heads up.
I was actually going to post the Auto Config tip on the original GPS fix thread. This fix works best for me. It's still flaky sometimes but it's much better than stock or the first fix.
I left in my initial settings from the first fix, and supplemented it with the auto setting from this fix. And though I leave use wireless networks disabled, I get an exact lock in about 5 seconds now!
now if only we could fix the compass...

NP guys
I was just playing with the settings and found that this worked great so I made a vid.
I also turned on MS Assisted so I can get a lock indoors
So this doesn't require you to have wireless networks turned on?
this one works great...
I actually never really had a problem with gps in the first place but usually it only finds 7 satellites and this fix instantly found me 11...

1. Disable "Use Wireless Network" under Settings > Location and Security
2. Dial *#*#1472365#*#*
3. Go to SUPL/CP Settings
4. Change Custom Config to Auto Config
5. Restart phone
6. Reenable "Use Wireless Network"
Thanks, any mention of Accuracy (50 or 100) or Operation mode?
just tried those settings on my vibrant (exchanged my 1st one - this one just arrived today) and GPS was crap before the settings, and worse after the setting changes
just tried the settings and mine is even worse.
just joking, just joking OP, thanks for the tip. finally, after the first gps fix that was put out, this locked me on in my exact location, not 3 blocks away, from the start.
No change when using GPStest. But was not expecting it to.

On mine if I use Maps and Nav it works fine but if I try and use Google Buzz and then maps it does not work until I reboot.
I just stop using buzz and it work fine now, not great but fine. it's accurate to about 3 feet for me if I have it in standalone mode, if I enable MS assist it accurate to about 15 feet.

I did try heygrl's config settings. The results were pretty decent but not perfect driving, not good walking. See results and my analysis here.
I had pretty good success with this fix too. Not perfect either, but good enough for me.

I hardly ever use Maps but today I tried and it would never get a GPS lock. Mapquest worked great so I know the GPS on the phone is working. I do not have Network Locations turned on but it should still work. I have not frozen any Google Apps but plenty of others. I have xposed and wanam, xprivacy installed but have not restricted Maps. Any ideas?
Thanks
Update: I guess there is no choice but allow Maps to use WIFI and Network Locations. It will not use GPS locations without using the other as well. I had always turned it off before to save battery and it worked fine as I recall so it's either a version change or I am mistaken. So accept battery drain or don't use Maps.

I am using a rooted nexus 6p, I also have a nexus 6 with the same issue, and I'm trying to fake gps locations for a game that requires walking. For some reason the fake location and the real location keep switching back and forth. I've tried turning off all the settings for gps with no luck.
This thread was opened http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/help/mock-locations-fake-gps-t3408407 and closed with the issue being resolved to using a specific app. This does not help me in debugging my app if I can't use apps that mimic walking.
It does not seem right that a specific phone can't hide real gps data. I don't even have a sim card in my nexus 6 and it's still finding my location. This seems like a phone bug that has yet to be reported.
In developer options there's an option called "Select mock location app". Did you tried it?
I have this same exact problem on a Nexus 6P. I've tried multitudes of mock GPS apps. I've selected the mock location app as well as used rooted mockers that don't even require a mock location selection. I've tried all GPS settings (GPS + WiFi, WiFi, GPS only) and they all flicker back and forth. I've seen other people have this issue too. I can even see it happening in Google Maps. XPrivacy is able to feed fake location data to a chosen app and that works great but it isn't convenient as you have to type in the coords. The real GPS really shouldn't interfere with the mock GPS (especially if the setting is on) but for whatever reason the Nexus 6P GPS gives no ****s about where you want to be, its in charge and you're gonna sit right where you are god dammit. Right now my best option is to use tin foil to render the real GPS useless unless I want to physically remove the thing but seriously what gives? I even just wiped my phone and flashed the latest PureNexus and still have the issue.
Same problem
I have the same thing going on with my Nexus 6p. After like 2 seconds it just flickers back and forth.. do have exposed framework to mock mock location.
It looks like com.google.android.gms from "Google Play Services" is being used to get the real GPS locations? How do we stop this?
Quit trying to cheat on Pokémon Go! Lol

Your opinion and assumptions really aren't necessary. The issue here is why the physical GPS interferes with the mock GPS on this device.
I have the same issue. Tried many apps, none worked. I'm on stock MTC19X. (also it seems when I have more than 1 fake location app installed, switching between them is funky. Sometimes they don't stick in the Dev option.)
*** I may have found a solution posted on stackoverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ymore?newreg=4100ab40b3704404852e05938ec2ca05). It seems to be working w/o flicker. Tested on Pokémon Go since vwood2121 mentioned it
Also you'll need to reverse it to get the gps working again.
"I managed to fix this problem by disabling the "Fused Location" service on my phone. I used the Disable Service application which requires root privileges to run. After disabling the "Fused Location" service I stopped teleporting to my real location."

Thanks to the guides on these forums, I've unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and rooted. Now I'm trying to get my tasker/securesettings automation working again. However, whenever I have securesettings activate the hotspot, the device reboots.
Some of the other securesettings capabilities appear to be working, but perhaps securesettings isn't fully working on the moto g5 plus yet? Any ideas for how to start troubleshooting this?
Much thanks!
Ben
PS. Coming from a moto x 2014 the g5 plus battery life is a revelation!
Sorry to post and then answer my own question so quickly, but I worked around the problem by using the tasker function to turn on/off wifi tethering, without using the securesettings function.
Several other securesettings functions appear to be working, including reboot (automated restart once a week). I'll post an update if I run into any other issues!
Thanks again to everyone for the great guides that have helped me get the g5 plus properly setup so soon after launch!

Since you are into automation can you help me with shell's command 'dumpsys'?

App that can switch "Wi-Fi" off and "Location + Bluetooth" on at the same time
Hi there,
I have a use case. On daily basis, when I leave home for work, I will need to turn WiFi off, and turn Location (GPS) and Bluetooth ON. Normally when I'm home, I tend to turn off these two (Location and Bluetooth) OFF because I don't really need them to be on. Is there an Android App that works with stock Note3 that could do this with one simple click/swipe? Thanks!

Not that I know off. But I would recommend NFC tags, I think you can program them to do those functions from what I read. Never tried them myself, since I have a custom ROM and it messes up my NFC.

Thanks! This is a great idea! However, I just bought some NFC tags. They don't work with my samsung galaxy note 3 with my case (Spigen) on. Any other idea that can automate this simple task? Thanks!
I also tried geo-location-base apps, such as "Llama - Locatoin Profiles". It didn't work out very well either. Any other ideas would be highly appreciate. Thanks!
Tried Tasker, Automate???
