Android ROM that can feed fake data to an app when a permission is requested (lemmy.ml)

Is there an Android ROM that has the ability to provide the app with fake camera stream, location, microphone stream, gallery, storage files etc...?

It would be incredibly useful to allow apps to work while giving no info / no access to private informations / permissions.

I think XprivacyLua (an LSPosed module, which LSPosed is a Magisk module) can be used to interfere with sensitive permissions, but recently the developer announced the end of its maintenance. I still use it though.

Can also confirm that it works, at least for GPS spoofing.

Does it still work with android 12/13?

Don't know about 13, but I'm using it on 12 without issues. I mostly just block things though, so I've not tested spoofing data.
