About this app

This app works only with the Xposed framework

It creates fake NetworkInfo and WifiManager objects that make other apps think they are using a WiFi even when your device is connected by other means to the internet.

When would you need that? I use it for HBO GO in my Android media box that has ethernet connectivity but the app ignores it. You might want to use it with other VOD or music streaming services that won't choose the highest quality over metered connections.
If you don't have a clear idea what are you going to gain by installing this app, you are better off not installing.

Be careful when you use it, especially if you don't have an unlimited data plan!

You might need to 'force close' some apps to pick up new settings or even restart your device.

If you are using Tasker or Locale you can use them to enable/disable Fake Wifi programmatically.

This app builds upon code from lemonsqueeze licenced under GNU GPL v3.

I installed successfully but so far I didn't notice any change. For example my YouTube doesn't work without wifi. Should I click or Un click the master and or debug options? Should I change the Mac address or can I leave it with default settings? I activated the module on my xposed. Android 8.1.0

Hi, sorry for the problems. The master switch should be ON and you should select the checkbox in the list of applications below the buttons. Unfortunately I no longer have the time and resources to maintain the app, but I am happy to accept pull requests on GitHub if you can make the app better.
