WaydroidNetworkSpoof

An LSPosed/Xposed module that makes apps believe they are on WiFi + Cellular (LTE) instead of Ethernet — primarily for Waydroid, works on any rooted Android device.

Why this exists

Waydroid exposes all network traffic through a virtual Ethernet adapter (eth0, TRANSPORT_ETHERNET, getType()=9). Many apps hard-check for WiFi or Cellular before enabling features (video streaming, payments, content unlock). This module intercepts the relevant Android network APIs at runtime and replaces every Ethernet signal with real-looking WiFi + LTE values — no system modification required.

What it spoofs

- API hasTransport(ETHERNET): Real Waydroid value true, Spoofed value false - API hasTransport(WIFI): Real Waydroid value false, Spoofed value true - API hasTransport(CELLULAR): Real Waydroid value false, Spoofed value true - API NetworkInfo.getType(): Real Waydroid value 9 (ETHERNET), Spoofed value 1 (WIFI) - API NetworkInfo.getTypeName(): Real Waydroid value "Ethernet", Spoofed value "WIFI" - API WifiManager.isWifiEnabled(): Real Waydroid value false, Spoofed value true - API WifiManager.getWifiState(): Real Waydroid value 1, Spoofed value 3 (ENABLED) - API TelephonyManager.getNetworkType(): Real Waydroid value 0, Spoofed value 13 (LTE) - API TelephonyManager.getDataState(): Real Waydroid value -, Spoofed value 2 (CONNECTED) - API ConnectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo().mType: Real Waydroid value 9, Spoofed value 1

Active transport: WiFi wins when both present — matches real Android dual-stack behaviour.

Spoofer module

1. Install WaydroidNetworkSpoof.apk 2. Open LSPosed → Modules → enable Network Spoofer 3. Tap the module → Scope → add your target app(s) 4. Force-stop / restart the target app 5. Done — no configuration needed, both WiFi + Cellular are always active

Requirements

- Android 8.0+ (API 26+) - LSPosed (recommended) or EdXposed - Root (required by LSPosed)

Limitations

- Hook takes effect only after the target app process restarts - NetworkCallback-based listeners (apps using registerNetworkCallback) may still receive the real underlying Network object from the system; the module patches the query APIs but does not forge Network objects - DNS still resolves through the real Ethernet interface — only the transport type reported to apps is changed - Does not affect system UI network indicator (that reads from a separate system service)
