Does not function on Huawei phones

[b-irl]

Tested on Mate 8. Most recent updates.

Real location is detected; possible explanations:

• Huawei ignores settings and detects location using wifi networks, even if disabled in Location Access and Scan Settings.

Issue 2; spoofing fails; possible explanations:

• Huawei or specific applications (Chinese; Baidu Maps) may be detecting that location spoofing is being used, and refuse to accept the spoofed data. When the phone is in airplane mode, the spoofed location is still not functional.
• When a non-Huawei-Approved application goes into the background on a Huawei phone, many functions are disabled, such as data access, and possibly other things. Can not be overridden via settings. Settings ignored again.

Solution:

• Do not buy Huawei.
