THIS METHOD DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.
The new Pokemon Go update (0.113.0) now detects if your location services are disabled!


Important: This method only work with systemless rooted devices with Magisk. It does not work on rooted devices with SuperSU since there is no way to bypass SafetyNet for SuperSU. There is problem with GPS spoofing that always jumping back to your original location so root + Magisk is the best way.

Please update Magisk to 17.1 in order to bypass stupid SafetyNet

Still work as of december 2018

Not work with Draconius GO

You may follow these steps for other GPS games

You can share but keep in mind not to spread too much. We don't know if Niantic or Google could will patch it
This is why I made it only viewable for registered users


Requirements
- Unlocked bootloader
- Rooted devices with Magisk
- App Systemizer (Terminal Emulator) (Magisk module)
- Busybox for Android NDK (Magisk module)
- GPS JoyStick (Download from Play store)
- Termux (Download from Play store)

Rooting devices with Magisk
Unlock bootloader of your device, flash custom recovery

Download Magisk and flash it: [2018.10.22] Magisk v17.3 - Root & Universal Systemless Interface [Android 5.0+]

I can't help you with rooting device so please go to XDA developers for help Android Forum for Mobile Phones, Tablets, Watches & Android App Development - XDA Forums

Hiding Magisk
Launch Magisk app, and go to settings. In General, click Hide Magisk Manager


Scroll down to Magisk section and enable Magisk Hide


Open Magisk Hide and check the following
- Carrier Services (com.google.android.ims)
- Google Services Framework (com.google.android.gsf)
- Google play Store (com.android.vending)
- Pokemon GO (com.nianticlabs.pokemongo)


Reboot and check SafetyNet on Magisk app, the following must be true
- ctsProfile
- basicIntergrity


You may disable Xposed module if SafetyNet does not pass

Launch Pokemon Go to see if it works

When it work, you're good. Go back to Magisk -> Downloads and install module App Systemizer (Terminal Emulator) and Busybox for Android NDK and reboot your device. We need it but we will go back to that later

Install and setup GPS JoyStick

Download GPS JoyStick Fake GPS Location from Play Store or APKPure

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theappninjas.gpsjoystick

GPS JoyStick for Android - APK Download

Launch the app, click on Privacy Mode - Generate/Update


Click Generate


Give it random name and start


You will be prompted to install, Install it

We need to convert user app to system app

Download Termux from Playstore or APKPure
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux

Termux for Android - APK Download

Open Termux, type

Code:
su
Hit enter and type

Code:
systemize

You will see the systemize terminal menu

Type 1 and enter


Type number of your app and enter

Select 1 or 2. In this case, I choosed 2


Reboot your device

Open your generated GPS JoyStick app

Enable both System Mode and Disable Location Service


Reboot your device

Ready to spoof
Open your generated GPS JoyStick app

Scroll to bottom, select the location and click START. Floating joystick will appear on screen


Open Google Maps to make sure it doesn't jump back to real location
If it jump back to real location, go back to your GPS JoyStick, click Fix GPS Jump To Real Location and try other fix mode. Reboot your device

If it does not, you can play Pokemon Go and spoofing :D

Video proof:
Don't know why there is black thing of joystick

Good Job :D
I thought Pokemon Go is unmod and unhackable now lol
Because at the release from this Game all ppl use bots, FakeGPS, then Niantic blocked all FakeGPS, Bots, Emulators
Nice work :D

You can use magisk module it's named smali by foomey to make the cts profile and basic integrity checked to play it.
Well I didn't need it since mine passed safetynet. PoGo have extra checks that checks for root and Magisk
