Just found a "cheat" for pokemon GO /vp/
If you're lazy enough not to go out, i'have a trick.
Put a magnet next to your gyroscope on your phone( mine is on the top)
If you manage correctly, you'll be able to move slowly, perfect for eggs and stuff.
Not really precise tough.
> Put a magnet next to your gyroscope
U fuckin' wot?

I haven't advised it, but it works nevertheless

I heard thatwith the latest patch it will use sensors in your phone and you'll find more fire types when it's hotter so you should try putting it in the oven or microwave if you're lazy, or the freezer for ice types.
Still waiting on the patch that detects if your phone is wet for improved water type encounters.

Shit, tried it myself and it does work, you have to curve the magnet around it in a 45 degree angle from the plane of the phone - or at least that's what I found works best. Took a bit of practice, but in 5 minutes I could make the app think I ran 5 miles.
what a brilliant little trick, OP are you an EE major?

Your phone has a gyroscope to tell what orientation it's being held - like if it's being held upright or what not.
The magnet alters with the angular momentum of gyroscope, making it move like gravity normally does.
it's often used to count steps and I guess that's how it works with hatching eggs in GO.

Oh shit OP, I just did it and actually found a fucking Mew! The app reacted to magnet and suddenly multicolored leaves sparkled around me in game. I clicked on them and the catch screen appeared, then I proceeded to catch Mew! Everyone should try this immediately, maybe someone can get Mewtwo or the birds!
So, do i just put it right next to it, or do i swipe it past, or something like that?

Show proof fag
Is this a way to get people to break their phones? or does it actually work
>>27067564
Both actually
>>27067564
yes.
>>27067564
It doesn't break the phone but if you do it a shit ton it will mess the compass and gyroscope up so it's up to you. Here's an article I just read checking it out.
