1. I cannot share my location on Google Maps (Maps throwed me to this page)
2. My Google Feed widget shows nothing on it. It keeps trying to pull data from the server and stays on that state
My other devices (Nexus 7 2013 and Xiaomi Mi6) don't have the problem with location sharing/feed.
What could be the problem? I've already make sure Maps/Google have access to location info
Mi Pad 4 wifi/lte?
System on it?
Mi Pad 4 WiFi doesn't have GPS module so location can be set only by ip address while you are connected to wifi

It's LTE-ready.
And GPS is working fine. It's just location sharing is not available somehow.

So it's only my problem? Everyone else can share their's really time location fine with Google Maps?
I think your main problem is, that not so many people are sharing their location -> using this function. You could try searching it in the general, if some other people also have that problem - regardless of the device they use.
OK, finally got it fixed.
Clear Data > re-launch map.
Now I can do location sharing.
Hi I have I big problem. Mi tab WiFi only version does not get located by neither Google Android manager or MIUI find service.what Is the point? All permissions seem right, I signed into MIUI account, location service is enabled too.thanks

I have to set the location to manually entered information. Unfortuantly, there is no GPS in the GTablet...
Some apps, like Maps or Loopt probably will not work unless you manually enter location information like a ZIP code.
I haven't heard anything about using WiFi for location data, though. Sounds interesting!
Other than manually entered location data, nothing can really be done unless that WiFi-location thing pans out somehow.
Can't really help you with how to manually enter information; I'd imagine you might already know how to do that, and I don't.
RE: Anyone tel me how to fix Wi-Fi Location Problem.
When I use my pc's google maps, it shows my location based on wi-fi. Also in my Iphone 2G its worked. I installed weatherBug, IhartRadio apps in to ViewSonic g Tablet and those are didn't start. It's searching location. So then how it's worked on PC's and Iphone 2G's. I think we need wi-fi patch for that.

Isn't that actually based on your public IP (the IP your router, wired or wireless) that your provider gives you?
We need to keep this thread going! I can't play Parallel Kingdom because the WiFi Location isnt enabled and I don't see any option to turn it on. Ive done some searches on the web and some Android phones have this feature...how come the GTablet doesnt? It would really help since there is no built-in gps or 3G service.

We need solution very fast. I need to know how regular pc finds the wi-fi location without GPS or 3G. (Eg- Google maps, Weather Bug ect..)
Well, Google does it in this way:

Maybe it could be done in that way as well somehow?

Google uses service that looks up the mac address of your router (just like skyhook on ipod touch). The stock tablet doesn't even have location services settings - does TnT-lite have this? If not then there is nothing collecting and reporting the data.
To get this to work, the Google location services part of android has to be running - and not use GPS. I have no idea how to make this work, I just know the basic mechanics behind it.
Google Location Services
This is part of the reason I returned the tablet.
If you open up the gservices.db under /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/ using SQLite3.
and do the following query:
select * from main where name='url:google_location_server';
It should give you the setting for the Google Location Services. In my case it didn't exist.
I tried to add a record for it by doing:
insert into main values('url:google_location_server','http://www.google.com/loc/m/api rewrite https://www.google.com/loc/m/api')
and that didn't work.
The NetworkLocation.apk is present in the Vegan b5.1 build but I couldn't get it to work at all because it always wanted to default to GPS.
E/libGPS ( 976): gps_stop
E/libGPS ( 976): gps_state_stop
E/libGPS ( 976): epoll_wait returned, nevnets=1
E/libGPS ( 976): read(control_fd) get CMD=2
E/libGPS ( 976): GPS thread get CMD_STOP
and never flip over to network based location.
The best I can tell you is use Location Spoofer for Android. I can't even troubleshoot it anymore because I gave up my GTab before the return period was over.
We need to keep going this thread
Location is very impotent to lot of apps.

Wi Fi location works on stock 1.24349
I was on stock 1.2-4349 till a couple of days back. Google maps was able to pin point my location in a jiffy. I flashed Brilliant Corners recently, and since then, Google maps stopped displaying my location. It's no big deal for me right now, but I thought it might be of interest to somebody else in this forum.

Try logging in to the Google Latitude app on the gTablet if it is installed. Google Maps, and other apps like News & Weather picked up the location correctly if I was logged in to that.
i have google maps 5.9.0 when trying to use wifi location or network location i get please enable a my location source from system settings. i also updated to maps 6.1.0 and its the same thing. i cleared data and cleared cache, also cleared google services framework nothing works. I know we dont have GPS on this tablet. but it should be able to use course navigation or wifi location. in 2.1 and 2.2 froyo it worked now on gingerbread its not working for me. does anyone have the same issue or no how to resolve without using a location spoofer?
I have found the same problem and I have not found any answers searching here and on other sites. I understand that the Hidden Settings app available here lists all of the settings that can be changed, and enabling My Locations is not one of them. I am wondering if the setting can be changed by editing a file on a rooted NT. Maybe one of the developers or the moderator knows where the file is located and how it should be edited. My guess is that Root Explorer would allow someone to find the setting file and, once you find it, you probably need to change the state from "0" to "1."
Same problem
You still need wifi for the directions function to work. At best in your car the NT acts as a dumb map, aerial or roads.
I have allow mock locations checked in devleopment. i also noticed that in the default prop it says ro.allow.mock.location=0.
i tried to change to 1. it reverts back to 0 upon boot up. i dont know that would help anyway
I'm not sure this is a mock location solution. I am wanting the NT to allow Google Maps to pull an address/location from the IP address like the iPad and iPod do. In Gingerbread (which I think is the base for the NT) it is under Location and Security and is the setting for "Use Wireless Networks" as a source for location information.
To Miniblue, I agree that you need WiFi to pull maps if you are mobile, but this would be nice when traveling and using the NT at any WiFi enabled location to find local information and for running directions. It is also a nice feature to use with the weather apps that can automatically pull local forecasts based on the Location Services.
Location services work with Yandex Maps (Russian). It means, it is app problem.
I also need this to work, I am trying to set up "Square Up" and it needs locations turned on.

I have downloaded Yandex and get a different error message: "Unable to determine location" compared to "Please enable a My Location source in system settings." I am not sure if that means that Yandix is able to access location, but I am not in am area covered by the maps or something else. I will play with some other map apps to see what I get.
In the mean time, does anyone know where the My Locations setting is on the NT? We ought to be able to find it and change it with Root Explorer on a rooted device. I have been looking through the various root folders and have not found it yet.
The nook color can enable Location Services, how is it done on that device and can we do it the same way on the NT?
Until we figure out how to enable the "Use wireless networks" setting, a near-term, very limited workaround is to use the "my fake location" apk, which allows you to manually set a mock location by entering a lat-long or slewing a map.

If you get "We have no data for this area", just click minus botton several times.

Tried that approach with the same result. The Market doesn't show My Fake Location as compatible with theNT. I will need to load it on my phone and export the apk for my NT. I'll be back if I find any helpful information.

Here you go:
Thank you, Conundrum768. My Fake Location will be a good work around for now. It even works with Yandex, though I can't read Russian. We will probably need to wait until there is a version of CM9 for the NT to have access to the My Locations setting. The NT is potentially a great tablet once we get the crippled software off of it.
ok this is what ive done so far
make sure you have sqlite and root explorer on your tablet can get it on market.
navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/secure make a backup and put it on your sd card just in case(copy the whole folder if you like)
find where it says 61 location_providers_allowed. press on the value side
you can either change it to network,gps
or change gps to network
save
then reboot
now when you go to maps the enable my location in system settings does not pop up now.
press the gps icon on the top right
now youll get waiting for location followed by your location is temporary not available.
this is a little more progress so far. location spoofer now works. we need to dig in more to find out what else can be done
i dont know if we can add or need to add <boolean name="location_wifi" value="true" />
to the com.android.settings_preferences.xml at the bottom.
This is helpful information. I made the change to the settings.db/secure using Root Explorer and added the line to com.android.settings_preferences.xml. I get the same messages: Waiting for Location and Your current location is temporarily unavailable. I have been doing some research on Android location services, but haven't found anything helpful yet.
right now i have mapquest and that works and sees your location.
i also have trying by changing permissions on
com.google.android.maps.jar
com.google.android.maps.xml
com.android.location.provider.jar
com.android.location.provider.xml
No Luck on any
we need somebody who knows the inner workings of Gmaps to find why it doesnt see your location while others do. such as mapquest
I will download MapQuest to my phone and move it to the NT. As an aside, have you done anything to your NT to increase compatibility with the Amazon Market? I assume you were not able to install MapQuest directly from the market. I am wondering if I need to change the Build Properties screen resolution to 160 or make other changes so that these apps will show up.
EDIT: Transferred MapQuest to the NT and it picks up my location from the WiFi. I am wondering what server MapQuest uses to render an geolocation from an IP address. I will look around to see what was added to the settings table. It may be possible to direct Google Maps to a different server. Also tried Waze, but get a FC when the app opens.
Alright this has been bugging me for a bit... How do I get apps to ask my permission before accessing my location (like on the iPhone). I have GPS on because I have the lookout security installed. And whenever I check facebook my GPS turns on and facebook tracks my location. Its not just facebook, its any app that supports location service. This will also benifit my battery. Any ideas? I have been searching Google and no luck there.

I was wondering if there is a way to disable HTC locations and use google as the geocoder for the stock clock/weather widget?
Use an app like LBE privacy guard to handle permissions.
You can delete the HTC Locations app and use GPS or WiFi location for the sense clock widget I believe.
Also you will want to uninstall the HTC Car stuff like automotive traffic and things like street view app. I know in the past I've uninstalled a butt load of the location type apps and still had the clock working but you may have to play around a bit. Use titanium backup and freeze the apps until you find out the combo you have to have, that way if you freeze something you actually need you can defrost it until you find the perfect setup for your usage, then test it and then remove it completely.

Dude your thread is called Location Privacy.
There's an app called Location Privacy that does exactly what you're looking for. It's published by PlaceMask and it's available on the Android Market.
The free trial version is good for 15 days. If you're still not sure whether it's worth $2.99 (you cheap bastard) you can re-install it--or you can perform a meta-reset...
Code:
HOME > MENU > Manage Apps > Select Placemask > Clear Data
...which is also a great way to turn off multiple alarms all at once. Use the alarm app's RESTORE function to turn them all back on without having to check a box next to every single one.
Anyway, back to Location Privacy:
Scans applications on your device and reports those using your location
Easy unmasking when you need to use real location (e.g. simply tap the PlaceMask to start and stop)
Remote control through SMS allows remote start and stop (useful with phone finders)
Provides replacement locations for your real location to enhance privacy
There are several apps--many of them free--that perform similar functions:
Location MockUp - Fake & Share
Fake GPS location
CatchMeIfUCan
GPSCheat! - Free
First off, I have to say thank you for this killer app, one of the best Android apps, in the history of Android itself In one click I have a theme in a few seconds, that if I did manually would take me a full frigging day to figure out, amazing.
Question though, on every theme I try it has some different weather location, no my location. I have my location permanent set in my weather app to a fixed zip code.

The problem with this is that the current weather provider we're using is terrible, and it's very difficult to change. We are working hard on switching though, and once it's done there should be no more weather issues :fingers-crossed:
need some help with that too
Yeah, I don't think you can yet. However, it works great for me.
Does it have anything to do with Location Services? The first theme I loaded up showed "location n/a" and I figured it was because I had Location Services turned off. I turned it on and it updated accordingly but now it's kind of hit or miss.

Hi,
I have tryed on my rooted S6 Edge to install 3 diffrent GPS spoofers as system apps, but cant get it to work.
They disapear and i have to reinstall the apps and then they install in Data/apps again.
Have tryed move the folder from data/apps to system/apps and restart, but dosent help.
Tryed useing Link2SD to move and same there.
Anyone know how to get a GPS spoofer app to install as a system app?
I dont wanna use mock location.

Sadly I'm having the same problem. I can't move anything to system apps on this device. Once moved, it no longer lists as being installed anymore.
I used CF-Auto Root. I'm curious if a different kernel and/or rom would give different results, as it's feeling like Samsung maybe blocking this for some reason.

When moving to system app ect.. have you set the correct permissions?

Ahh let me guess, going to use it for pokemon Go! ?
Make sure you don't install it like you would normally. Just use the Apk downloaded.
I got mine to work, download the Fake GPS Location apk, copy the Apk to /System/App/Fake GPS. You will need to make the folder "Fake GPS". Just use root Explorer for this, go back to system/app and set permissions as rwxr-xr-x for the Fake GPS folder.
Then change the Apk permissions to rw-r-r.
Reboot and that should be it, you'll still need to enable mock location app but pokemon won't detect it being in use.

Thanks for the advice. Allowed to successfully set a Fake GPS app as a system app. Sadly though, it's still not working for me with Pokemon Go. Just comes up with Failed to Find Location or whatever the error is. The map shows I'm in the location I set, but no poke stops etc load in the area.
I'm guessing I've still got something else not set up right for this one. I'm on stock 6.0.1 with root via CF-Auto Root. I don't know if any of that would be affecting this or not? But somehow, the game still knows I have the mock location set as it's the exact same error as if I just set it without it being a system app.

Edit: Sadly, I feel like they've patched all of this. As it's not working for me at all. I moved a different paid GPS spoofing app to system apps, and it appears to work fine. However, spinning a poke stop doesn't release any items. Every Pokemon escapes the ball, and flees, and gyms say they are too far away. This is using a paid GPS app, that has an "expert" mode.
The app mentioned above currently just results in a blank map.

I don't think it's patched, it still works for me in Australia. Plus they can't patch it if they can't detect it (system apps are private and arnt installed like a normal apk would be). Try to turn it off, use your real location for 5-10min, swap GPS to the Fake one and place the pin near you and move around from there. Don't place a pin on the other side of the state as it won't load and know you can't travel that distance from last time you loged in. When I drop a pin in the middle of Melbourne it doesn't load no matter what I do. So I just use it around my area to get stuff. Just remember that the Fake GPs isn't going to work flawlessly with pokemon go! As niantic encountered players doing this on ingress, they developed algorithms to make it harder to do so freely. Also servers are unstable atm so drop outs and freezing is common.
Don't forget to hit the thanks button if I helped.

You're right. It appeared to be a soft ban like on Ingress. I should have thought about that before suddenly moving cities. Only lasted a few hours, so not too big a deal. Im curious though if I do it too often, if ill get a permanent ban. As I have an urge to go explore somewhere overseas. I guess best option would be to log out for a day or two before making a drastic jump overseas.
The main problem I'm having now, is trying to repeat your advice. I want to try a gps app with waypoints... so I can set a journey and walk along it. Presumably helping me hatch eggs. Secondly, trying to replicate what I've done on my phone on my GF's phone... neither are installing post reboot. Getting frustrated.
Cheers for the help. Not a regular here on XDA. I'll hit that button now.
Edit: OK, I was doing it wrong. Whoops.
For anyone else confused, below is the process I'm using.
I'm using the paid version FakeGPS as it allows system app installation without having to select the app in mock locations. However just today it's started regularly leaking my real location, making me jump back and forth all the time. Not sure how to solve that one just yet.
So, I install FakeGPS.
Use APK Extractor to save the APK (to storage/emulated/0/apk extract)
Use Root Explorer to make a folder named FakeGPS in /system/app
Use Root Explorer to copy the APK from storage. Paste it into the folder created earlier.
Set APK premissions to rw-r--r
Set folder permissions to rwxr-xr-r
Reboot phone.
Once rebooted, launch FakeGPS and turn Expert Mobe on in settings.
From there, youre good to go.

If your on wifi turn off the wifi spoofing, apparently it can make you rubber band sometimes. I don't have an issue with WiFi or 4g, I just set my location and off I go
Yeah obviously it's not a smart idea to just jump from one country to the next, your account will get flagged and next time you do it someone will be watching your position and then bam permanent ban hammer comes down, maybe even a device block or ip block included.
Personally i just use it when I'm at home and can't go anywhere (it's winter here so it's damn cold in Victoria). Other than that I don't use it to abuse gyms and flood the town of RED gyms. That would be malicious and not so fun. I do it for leveling up a whole bunch of pokemon and getting stocks back up. Then just free roam 5m at a time for pokemon
i can't turn expert mode on. it's greyed out. I got it installed as System App using your instructions. Any ideas?
edit: ok now it is working. Had to put the extracted app in the priv-app folder. Actually it's working great.. my character doesn't jump back and I can catch Pokemom without having any problems..

wrong.. still using it without getting banned. It only checks if you have 'mock location' enabled in your developer settings. Just run fake GPS as a system app, don't move too fast and stay on the roads.

You're right. It appeared to be a soft ban like on Ingress. I should have thought about that before suddenly moving cities. Only lasted a few hours, so not too big a deal. Im curious though if I do it too often, if ill get a permanent ban. As I have an urge to go explore somewhere overseas. I guess best option would be to log out for a day or two before making a drastic jump overseas.
The main problem I'm having now, is trying to repeat your advice. I want to try a gps app with waypoints... so I can set a journey and walk along it. Presumably helping me hatch eggs. Secondly, trying to replicate what I've done on my phone on my GF's phone... neither are installing post reboot. Getting frustrated.
Cheers for the help. Not a regular here on XDA. I'll hit that button now.
Edit: OK, I was doing it wrong. Whoops.
For anyone else confused, below is the process I'm using.

I am using a CF rooted Samsung S6 Edge 6.0.1
I installed Root Explorer
I downloaded Fake_GPS_Location_Spoofer_v4.0_(Paid_Cracked).apk
I Used Root Explorer to make a folder named Fake GPS in /system/app
I used Root Explorer to move the APK from storage to the /system/app/Fake Gps
I Set APK premissions to rw-r--r
I Set folder permissions to rwxr-xr-r
I Rebooted phone.
Once rebooted, I launched FakeGPS and turned Expert Mode on in settings.
I then open FakeGPS and set a nearby location (has a pokestop) and Fake location engaged appears.
I then open Pokemon Go and it loads my current location (not the location I selected above), It does not move from my physical location and works as normal.
Settings I have on:
Mock locations is off (Fake GPS is not selected)
High accuracy GPS is on (GPS, Wi-Fi, and Mobile Networks)
Improve Accuracy has both Wi-Fi scanning on and Bluetooth scanning on
Expert mode on in Fake GPS
How can I fix this? thanks in advance.

Try setting GPS to GPS only (no wifi/mobile)
Turn off Wi-Fi and bluetooh scanning.
