Option #1

• Use "Lucky Patcher" or similar app to automatically perform this task for you.

Option #2

1. Disclaimer: This process requires a rooted device.
2. Use a 3rd party file manager app supporting root access such as "Root Explorer" or "ES File Manager".
3. Using the file manager, browse to the /data/app folder and locate the GPS Controller app folder.
   • It's typically named com.fakegpspokecontroller-1 or com.fakegpspokecontroller-2, etc.
4. "Cut" or move this folder from /data/app to /system/priv-app.
5. Reboot your device.
