General :: OpenPDroid Doesn't Seem To Spoof Location Data

Nov 11, 2013

So I have successfully gotten OpenPdroid patched on my CM10.1.3 rom, but it isn't behaving the way I would expect. I set the coordinates to 25N 71W for all apps with access to location information. I configured this across all apps requesting GPS as well as Network Location data. I then fired up my browser and navigated to google maps. The location shown was my actual physical location. What gives?

FTR, I'm willing to follow instructions and experiment to determine the root cause of the problem. I didn't want to give too many unnecessary details in my initial post. My strategy is "start general, get more specific as needed."

Android :: Spoof Or Fake Location On Phone

Jul 29, 2010

I've been trying to get this to work for a few days without success. Basically, I'm writing a small test app to make the phone report it's position as somewhere else using addTestProvider and setTestProviderLocation etc. Basically it looks fine and appears to report its location as having changed, however Google Maps etc. seems to still be querying the real GPS provider. Does anyone have any ideas how to get around this?

This isn't an app that will actually be used for anything, it's just really to satisfy my own curiosity and gain an understanding.

General :: Malware To Spoof Notification - Galaxy 10.1 Tab

Jun 29, 2012

Just got a notification on my Galaxy 10.1 tab: "Sign-in error for [URL]... - Touch to sign into your account".

Is it possible that this is malware spoofing the system? Any way for me to find out? I've run Avira and it says the tab's clean, and I also checked the running services, but I don't see anything out of the ordinary.

I'm wary because a few days ago I got a notification that my tablet had a virus *eyeroll* and when I tapped it it went to a 'download antivirus here' page which of course I didn't click on...

General :: Spoof (Phone Identity) Permission For Apps?

Apr 1, 2012

I cant seem to find any posts about this but it has driven me nuts since I upgraded to Android from my non-smart phone. I don't want to give my number out to every app I install. Yes I understand I can not install apps that require this permission, but is there a way to "Spoof" this permission. in other words if an app requests my phone identity, it would return a fake number instead of my real number?

I am running Cyanogen Jordon

General :: Mobile Data Connection Doesn't Work After Using WiFi?

Jul 15, 2012

I am using ICS Evervolv a5 on my N1. The mobile data connection works only if I don't connect to a WiFi network. If I do, the only way I have found to make it work again is to reboot the phone.

This means that while I am at home, everything works through WiFi, however, if I leave home, I have to reboot my phone once I am sure the phone is far enough from my WiFi access point to be able to connect. Then, it starts working with the cellular data plan

The only thing I can relate to this is that I have the "application protection" app installed, protecting the settings menu do with a code so my kids don't mess up with that. However, is still hard to believe that's the culprit.

Android :: Location Doesn't Have A Bundle With Satellite Count Any More?

Oct 6, 2009

Just upgraded my phone firmware to 1.6, and it looks like Location objects don't have satellite counts in them any more:
locMan = (LocationManager)con.getSystemService (Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); Location loc = locMan.getLastKnownLocation (LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER); Bundle extraBundle = loc.getExtras();
extraBundle is null. So, I can't call
extraBundle.getInt("satellites").

Sprint HTC Hero :: Rooted / Browser Doesn't Know Location Now

Feb 23, 2010

I rooted and installed the gumbo kernel and fresh 1.1 yesterday. Everything went smooth. The only problem I have noticed is that the browsers can no longer access my location. I put the location service back on the phone but no luck. When I go to a site like buzz or access the google home page it can't get my location. Any advice on this? Not a huge deal but I know it worked with the default browser beforehand and doesn't now. I've noticed when I use something that needs GPS the gps icon appears but it doesn't stay there all the time.

HTC Incredible :: How To Spoof MAC Address

May 14, 2010

This is a HOW TO about how to spoof your MAC address. A MAC address is a combination of numbers and letters that are unique to your own wifi card. I am not responsible for how you use this, I am just putting it out here. Don't flood this thread with how it is illegal because there are legal uses for this (such as pen testing).

First, you need to download a free app called Android Terminal Emulator. It is free and works on the Incredible. You do not need root for this to work. To change back to your normal MAC Address, just follow these steps to change it back or restart your phone.

It makes this easier if you already know your real MAC Address which can be found at:
All Programs > Settings > Wireless & Networks > WiFi Settings > Menu button > Advanced

Keep this in mind

Then, open the Terminal Emulator previously installed. You need to run a few linux commands to get the change. You need to find the name of your card. To do this type this without the quotes (''):
'ip link show'

This will provide a list of a bunch of different interfaces. Find the one that has the same MAC address as the one found above. On the Incredible, it is the last one called eth0. I will use eth0 in the examples, but if it is different, then change eth0 to your own one in the following commands.

To change the MAC Address, type this without the quotes (''):
'ip link set eth0 address XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX'
'ip link set eth0 broadcast XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX'

XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX is the new MAC Address you want where each X is a letter A-F or number.

Finally, to check if the MAC Address has changed, type this without the quotes (''):
'ip link show eth0'

It should now show the new MAC Address. I haven't checked if it sends this MAC address to the router, but I think it will. I will update once I check it.

Motorola Droid :: Facebook Spoof

Nov 19, 2009

I just had an issue with my Facebook account and bogus messages sent ostensibly from me to my "friends." The only thing that changed recently from my end was getting the Droid and activating the Facebook app on it. Probably coincidence, but . . . has anyone else had this issue?

Android :: Emulator Spoof Device Id

Apr 2, 2010

I just used this getDeviceId() to retrieve the unique id of the phone, but in the emulator it gives 00000000 when I try to display it. I know it makes sense to do that but can I spoof a device id for testing purposes. I need to setup about 4 -5 android devices in my emulator to check the functionality of the app that I have written, and the entire app revolves around the unique id of the mobile device. I just feel, maybe it should be there in the DDMS but I am not able to figure it out.

General :: Devices Reporting Wrong Location After Location Spoofing

Mar 15, 2013

Recently all my android devices think they are in Spain when I am at home in Toronto.

I think this was caused when I ran a location spoofing program on only one of my devices, one of the locations I set it to was Spain (among others).

I've tried clearing the data for the Network Location apps, changing the SSID on my router with no luck.

The only way it shows the correct location is when I go outside and run Google maps long enough to get a GPS fix. But when I go back inside I am back in Spain!

The devices this is affectingGalaxy Nexus with my google account

Nexus 7 with my google account

Galaxy S3 with my google account

Galaxy S2 without my google account

Android :: How To Store Location Data In Sqlite?

Dec 16, 2009

I want to store location data in sqlite. A latitude coordinate is a double, with 15 point precision. As far as I can tell this corresponds with the 'REAL' datatype which is 8 bytes. The alternative I suppose would be to store it as a String, and simply convert it back into a double later. Does it make any odds which way I go? Are there differences in storage capacity / efficiency?

Android :: Trouble With Programmatically Adding Mock Location Data

Sep 27, 2009

I am working on an application that requires an approximate position of the user, so basically i am fine with any relatively recent location data i can get. However I can't seem to get things right using mock location data and would therefore appreciate your help. The method i'm having tries to set mock location data for the gps provider and tries to later retrievie it BUT: locationManager.setTestProviderEnabled("gps", true); seems to fail because i do not get any active location provider from the location manager. When I tried using a mock location provider with addTestProvider and give it my mock location, the LocationManager returns me this mock provider with getProviders(true) but then getLastKnownLocation returns null instead of the provided mock location.

Motorola Droid X :: Location Services Improves Reception And Data?

Oct 16, 2010

I went to drill today and most of the people in my unit has a droid x except one person has a droid 2. Well both did a speed test. He was at 2.4mb and I was at 1.3mb so im confused. We start looking through our settings to compare. He is on max battery saver with all location services on. Im on max performance with no location services on. So I turn on wireless network location services and retest. I get 2.2mb just like that. Does anyone know why it would make a difference? Also I noticed his reception was at- 70db while I was at- 82. Can anyone think of why he would have better reception than me?
