It just doesn't work. I see the directory and the files in the file
explorer and when i browse with the adb shell, but android doesn't see
the 'test' folder as a location provider, although it has exactly the
same files as the 'gps' folder. I tried another trick. I've removed
the files in the gps and replaced them with my own files, but when I
run I still get the default location in St. Francisco, instead of my
own in Germany. It seems that android ignores my updates of the /data/
misc/location folder.
