Works perfectly, thanks! Really useful for apps that backed up via titanium backup but still checks device id every time it's restored

Hey, I'm also trying to get LINE with all my chat history to my new phone. Did you get it to work for LINE? If yes, how?
Hey, I didn't try the Android ID trick. I used LINE's official procedure: https://guide.line.me/en/migration/

You do lose all your media (photos and videos) though, as the cloud backup (using GDrive) only restores text chats. You can save your media to your phone or on LINE's cloud before. It's not ideal and I wish we could do like before (using TiBu and restoring Android ID) to get everything back but this doesn't work on Android 9 and up apparently.

Thank you for the quick reply. I don't want my private chats on Google Cloud, so I'm still trying to get the ROOT approach to work on Android 10.
My current issue, however, is that I cannot find `/data/system/users/0/settings_ssaid.xml` on my new phone (Android 10), but I could find the Android ID (SSAID) on that location on my old phone (Android 9). (Since Android 8, every app has it's own Android ID, instead of device-wide).

I succeeded when I upgraded the same phone from Android 7 to 9 (which LINE thought was a new phone).

If I'm successful, I'll post the steps I took here:

LINE data successfully transferred


It worked! LINE is receiving and sending messages from both phones ^-^ It took a bit of trial and error, but changing the Android ID still works.
On my new phone, I could find the Android ID in this location: `sbin/.magisk/mirror/data/system/users/0/settings_ssaid.xml`

Please see the question on stackexchange ^ for the steps I've taken.

Thanks for the detailed instructions, but I ended up delete all the entries in the naver_line -> setting. Letter sealing works without any issue on my PC, too!

I have a question about this subject, and I'm hoping I can find an answer in here instead of creating another thread. The device I'm running experiments on is a rooted Moto e6 running Android 9.

What I'm trying to do is to put the Android ID of an older phone that has since been laid to rest onto this phone. As with most of these things, what I thought was an answer turned out to just lead to more questions and put me further back than I thought I was.

If you download your data, specifically Android Device Configuration Service, you'll get a list of all of the devices that have been on your account for I don't know how long.

At the top of each device page is a number that Google is claiming is the Android ID. It's a 15-digit number. I was under the impression that THAT is the true Android ID used to verify familiar devices since every time there is a factory reset, every other identifiable number stays the same, but not that one.

I used Total Commander's editor to pull up the xml file OP mentioned at the beginning and the hex-string in there is NOT a 15-digit number.

So, with that in mind, here are questions:
1. Which number is the Android ID which Google uses to verify familiar devices with accounts?
2. Or are they both correct and the hex string is an encoded version?
3. If that's the case, can someone show me how to do that? I don't have any background in computer languages, and of all the converters I have tried online, I haven't found one that works or I don't know what to convert it to.
4. If they are not related, and the15 digit number is the right one, where can I put it in so that it shows up as the Android ID?

Thanks in advance.
