Option to set cell ID

[wu4258528]

Because in China many android apps use Cell Location before GPS location , and we can not catch GPS signal indoor,so if I want to fake a location,I must fake a Cell Location.
So could you add a feature to set Cell Location?Only longitude and latitude is OK.
Thanks very much.

This is not possible, since the cell information only carries cell ID's, not a location.
Google has mapped the ID's to a location, but this information is not publicly available.
You can hide the cell information to applications by restricting functions in the location category.

But we could presumably feed a fake cell ID to an application? The user would have to find an ID near his desired location himself, but perhaps some ID's for some locations can be found on the Internet by the user? I suppose it would be nice to have the option to try that, although of course I would understand if this had low priority for you (I probably would not use this myself).

Wow! You even manage to implement the low-prio stuff, very impressive! People in China will appreciate this. And perhaps so will we, one day, when Google changes its tactics.
