Configuring Nox to send real smartphone information?
So, it was brought to my attention that the use of Nox (or any other emulator) is easily detectable by Niantic, and will result in a ban.
Somehow i have yet to receive a ban, and i am fully aware i still might.
But on the off chance that they haven't monitored that yet, but will soon, id like to know how i can configure my Nox to send information that will make Niantic think it is a phone, which should allow me to keep using Nox freely.
I don't know EXACTLY what information needs to be spoofed, but i assume it includes basic things like Model, version, IMEI, etc and more advanced information like satellite information.
Thank you very much!
I think many people would also benefit from this.

Don't quote me on This but I'm pretty sure nox generates a id for a phone so that they believe your using a phone

Nox is dangerous, I was unban from pokestop softban at last Saturday then bot for whole day with necrobot without problem. However, when I switch to Nox to fight for a gym. Suddenly I was received a network failure message. I try to restart the game but "fail to get game data" finally is perma-banned. I was now suspected Nox makes my account instant banned.

Wow I wonder if that's how I was banned, I tried nox once on my main account a few weeks ago and it got banned the other day however my other account didn't (botted fully to 29)

this may be a coincidence - you say you botted the entire Saturday and then went on to log into Nox - maybe you just got banned in a small delay?
and even if so, this just supports what im trying to do - if we manage to make Nox seem 100% like a smartphone, we are golden!

Are you sure you didnt do ANYTHING else with that account? nothing suspicious?

Oh hell yeah, I botted that account from 24-32, hence why I'm not mad, just trying to figure if there was one specific thing that caused it or just the whole bot thing

Look at Nox's build.prop, Apps will most probably get info from it.
How can I detect when an Android application is running in the emulator? - Stack Overflow
* Just formatted my pc and lazy to dissect the apk to find that line.

is it really that they can see u on nox or is it because they ban u because they think u on a rooted phone ? i found this How To Trick Apps Into Thinking Your Android Is Not Rooted maybe this works ,
and btw if i go check on my andriod phone on How to find and check my IP address it says andriod ( andriod Y300..........) and if u check on nox it says andriod nox but u can change that to

Alright NOX is shitty. Download the app AIDA64 and look at all the info. It has Nox labeled all over the place even though i customized it as much as i could in the Nox settings. You cannot change these settings anywhere inside of nox easily anyways. You might be able to if you edit the android system files.

Live i've said. You need a customize the build.prop from the boot level to remove the nox but you cannot edit build.prop just like that. Easiest is to unpack the apk and remove the line which it uses to detect if the app is running on an emulator and rebuild it, sign it the apk and try from there on.

omghaxla, i did that, i edited the build.prop file using ES file explorer (oddly some editors show the new versions while some show the original), changed everything i could to "LGE" or "LG" (according to my build.prop file) and Nexus 5, however it STILL doesn't seem like it works.
by using AIDA64 i still get the same fields you did, with Nox.
Dose anyone know exactly what files applications (such as pokemon go and AIDA64) get the info from? then we can edit them!
So what is our next step,

I tried to save the same specs from my smartphone to Nox but it didn't work. The build.prop file, besides saving, doesn't save for real. It changes back to what it was before the edition.
Someone knows how to solve it?
