Send Spoof Locations With Ddms Emulator Control To A Tablet Android Device
Solution 1:
I've pieced together a solution to this problem.
Go to Settings->Applications->Development and select "Allow mock locations".
Add ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION permission to AndroidManifest.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><manifestxmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"><uses-permissionandroid:name="android.permission.ACCESS_MOCK_LOCATION">
Implement a class which uses the LocationManager.addTestProvider() function. This will indicate to the application that it should use data from a file to construct new Location objects.
New Locations can then be created using the LocationManager.setTestProviderLocation() function.
// start using mock locationstry { mockLocationCreator = new MockLocationCreator(this.getApplicationContext()); try { mockLocationCreator.openLocationList(); mockLocationThread = new Thread(mockLocationCreator); mockLocationThread.start(); Toast.makeText(this.getApplicationContext(), "Mock locations are in use", Toast.LENGTH_LONG) .show(); } catch (IOException e) { Toast.makeText(this.getApplicationContext(), "Error: Unable to open / read data file", Toast.LENGTH_LONG) .show(); mockLocationCreator = null; } } catch(SecurityException e) { Toast.makeText(this.getApplicationContext(), "Error: Insufficient Privileges", Toast.LENGTH_LONG) .show(); Log.e(TAG, "unable to use mock locations, insufficient privileges", e); }
Note: It is not possible to send mock locations to a real device from DDMS->Emulator Control->Location Controls regardless of device or manifest permissions as is incorrectly suggested here.

Using Mock Locations in Android - more verbose, contains some dead links.

Solution 2:
For simple spoofing
you can use this free version but as you said in your question you want spoof
locations from a KML
file for that you have to buy pro version
