How do I change the AndroidID?
My Android ID has changed since a factory reset. Now some apps/services don't work. Besides using Titanium Backup, how can I restore/change back to the previous Android ID? I already know what the ID is. Android 7 | Rooted

Android ID associated with familiar devices
I have a **rooted** Moto e6 that I'm trying to change the Android ID on to one from a previous phone that is no longer serviceable. **This is not about app ID's, which have already been answered.** I'm attempting to recover a couple accounts and do not have the phone number I used when I set them up...
I have a **rooted** Moto e6 that I'm trying to change the Android ID on to one from a previous phone that is no longer serviceable. **This is not about app ID's, which have already been answered.** I'm attempting to recover a couple accounts and do not have the phone number I used when I set them up. Just being on a familiar network and knowing the previous passwords isn't enough any more, and since they shut down the "can you provide us with more information," I'm stuck trying to make a familiar device from scratch. I downloaded my data from the one account I still own that was on that phone. This includes the 19-digit Android ID associated with the original device, as well as other device info such as the serial number, IMEI, etc. I'm under the impression that's the Android ID Google uses to identify "familiar devices." I've looked and verified it's the same across different accounts on the same phone under the same user. Going from another answer in here, I pulled up /data/system/users/0/settings_ssaid.xml on my Moto e6 and the android_id shows up as a 64 bit hex string. I tried searching for the 19 digit number on the phone with Total Commander, but came up with nothing. Yesterday I decided to try and swap out the 64 bit hex string with the 19 digit Android ID from the old phone, rebooted, pulled the device configuration data, and nothing changed. Still showing the same ID. I pulled it again this morning and, again, same. My question is: Where is this number located? Am I looking in the wrong place? Thanks in advance. enter image description here enter image description here

Is it possible to change the Android ID with root access? (On Android 10)

I have an Android 10 phone (Motorola Moto G9 Play) and I want to change the Android ID (I think that's what apps use to identify you sometimes). I have a cell phone with: ROOT + Magisk + EdXposed I always changed my "Android ID" using "Titanium Backup". But there is currently no option to change. Is it possible to change the "Android ID" just using a few tools, command line, applications, something that can modify the "Android ID"? Please, I need it so much. Reason: Some applications when they are going to ban accounts, they block the "Android ID" and I need to modify it and then use it again! (By Google Translator, sorry!) =(

Where can I find the ANDROID_ID on my device?
I know that you can find IMEI and MAC address and others by going to `Settings -> About phone -> Status`. You can also find IMEI by typing `*#06#` on the keypad. Is there any way to get the ANDROID_ID on the phone itself, as opposed to via this bit of code? Secure.getString(getApplicationContext().g...

Where is the "android_id" stored and when does it change?
I want to build a `device_id` with `android_id`, any one knows the answer to these three questions? - Where is the `android_id` value stored? - When is the `android_id` value initialized, i.e. the first time the value is set? - In which cases does the `android_id` value change?
