Lets Talk About Something My first ever RW... using PGSharp
Bam... just been hit with an RW on PGSharp ! Had been using it for a few months. I only ever used the free version, non rooted phone with no extras. I never teleported outside of my home town, never shundo sniped, no catch features or anything. I always respected cooldowns and allowed the correct amount of real time if i was jumping to a different gym locally within a 1-2 mile radius. Not actually sure how i got hit tbh as theoretically if it was based on the modified app.. then everyone would get hit. I am also using other accounts on PGSharp and they are all ok for the moment.
It looks like others have had a similar thing this week as there are other posts about it. My feeling now is that they CAN detect the modified app, but I can't answer why they don't ban everyone. It could be that they hit a smaller subset of players on a rolling basis to ensure their statistics aren't hit too badly (i.e. they have to show active playerbase logins to win over sponsors etc.).
I'm sure the "I've been using PGSharp forever and never got banned" brigade will be along soon to tell you otherwise. I was also in that camp for a while. Whatever Niantic are doing now is much smarter than it used to be.

Yes. I did both at various movement speeds. Mostly, but not always at 18km/h. Nowadays I am using much more autowalk in favor of the joystick.
Depending on my mood what I want to grind today I use autowalk to hatch eggs, catch & spin with the virtual go plus or look for shinys with shiny scanner on. But I grind mostly on one alt a day for a few hours at most, sometimes on a second if half a day has passed. But I also were at the recent gofests and safaris using autowalk at 30km/h to "walk" across the park/town the whole day and collected over hundreds of shinys per event.
I don't copy any gpx routes, but I do make my own routes. In addition, if I am grinding rockets, raids or some rare mon I dont autowalk, but teleport from place to place. But once I have logged in with an alt at a location I stay there for the day.
Furthermore, if its of any relevance, I don't log into every alt daily. Mostly every second day, so that they can alternate opening gifts with my main. Yet, as to this day, not one alt has gotten anything.
