   How do you spoof Wi-Fi location on Android?   
      
   I probably know this stuff better'n anyone here, but maybe (hopefully)   
   someone who reads this question knows it better than I do as I do NOT know   
   how to spoof Wi-Fi location when Google Location Accuracy is turned on.   
      
   Whenever I turn on Google Location Accuracy (e.g., when an app requires it   
   to run), I immediately first spoof my GPS location (if I'm not routing).   
      
   That confuses the hell out of the app because it thinks you're in one GPS   
   location while the nearby Wi-Fi unique BSSIDs tell them you're elsewhere.   
      
   That works fine when I'm at home because I live in the boonies and my   
   unique BSSID's are NOT in the Google database - but when I'm traveling,   
   then the unique BSSID's of all the Access Points around me tell the truth.   
      
   Given that situation that it's trivial to spoof GPS when Precise Location   
   Accuracy is turned on, does anyone know how to spoof Wi-Fi location data?
