Help GPS coordinates wrong

Hi, I recently downloaded an application called 'fake gps' which changes the location of your mobile device. The app worked fine, untill I wanted to go back to my normal country (australia) I could not change the location and still cant, I have since uninstalled the app which hasn't worked, ive also tried redownloading it and now I am unable to download any apps, let alone 'fake gps'. Its causing all sorts of problems, for example I am unable to recharge my phone with credit (im guessing because it says im in America somewhere) any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you, Chris.
 
Hello Chris:)
I would assume you've tried rebooting?
In developer settings, have you unchecked "mock locations"?
In your location settings, do you have "High accuracy (GPS and Networks) checked?
Does the app instructions indicate that you need to do something before you uninstalled it?

Yeah, you're supposed to stop it.

As you said, try going to wifi and network location only, turn off GPS itself (usually in notification pull down).
 
FakeGPS has a Stop and a Play button in the lower Left and Right (respectively) corners of the screen, try hitting the stop button.

I've been using since I got my Note 4 (the first day they came out in Oz) and have never had any issues with it.

BTW: Happy Australia Day.
 
Except it's uninstalled and he's locked out of the Play Store, can't reinstall it.

If it's really necessary, need to get a copy of the apk and side load it.
