I have root via Magisk and want to know how to change device id for a specific app as Oreo does that now instead of in the past making device id across the phone one id that was easily changeable via apps. Any ideas?

Sorry for some very basic questions about Device Id.
My assumption
My simple understanding is that your device id is a unique identifier that is generated based on your device and your Google account id.
This id is then used when for instance connection to the market and is required for you to download/install apps from it.
I know you can run an application like "Device Id" on the market to derive it.
Questions:
When will I ever need to use it?
If I flash a custom ROM - does that transfer over a new device Id and I will have to change the device id post-flash back to what it used to be in order for my device to access the market correctly - or is this something I need to do when/if I go back to stock?
Interested to see what the 'need'/use for this device id is.
Regardless I did make a note of mine...should I ever...need it
The identifiers for the device are in the build.prop and can be modded with root, to change system parameters and what apps are available in the market.

Re: kakaotalk re-verification android id
I've noticed when I restore kakaotalk via titanium backup across substantially different bases (ie tw to aosp) I have to re-verify my device.
Anyone know how I can avoid this?
There's some information on this blog that seems to suggests that the verification process assigns our android id a session key.
http://www.bpak.org/blog/2011/06/kakaotalk-session-key-3/
I tried altering my Android id and gsf id to match the one my kakaotalk backup is tied to. It is still asking me to re-verify.
I've also tried manually copying the data (after matching android id and gsf id) and I get an unable to upgrade message instead of the re-verification dialog.
Any ideas?

Android device manager is a very cool and useful tool that has been created for android phones.
However, my problem is:
When I try using the "lock" option on android device manager, my phone does not lock unless i have it in the correct profile.
I am using CyanogenMod 10.1.3, and I also use profiles.
I have two main profiles: 1)Lock and 2)unlock. Obviously, the lock one is the default locking, and the unlock profile, is insecure.
My question is: will google find a way to override the profile system and lock your phone no matter what profile it is in, whether or not you have your phone in an insecure or secure profile?
Let me know your thoughts!

Would anyone know if the Galaxy S9 natively supports user profiles so that multiple users can login and use the same phone with their unique settings and apps? If not would anyone be able to recommend an application that could accomplish this?
The functionality has been disabled for stock Samsung ROMs long time ago (if it was ever enabled). There were some discusions in the past regarding this and what I remember is that you need root for this to work. You have to edit build.prop and include the lines:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=n (where "n" is a number indicating the max users on device - should be at least 2)
Alternative is to flash an AOSP based ROM that has the function enabled.

I unfortunately cannot root the device as it will be provisioned for company use :/ is there a launcher that could help to accomplish this?
Sorry, none I know. The functionality is deep embeded in the OS, a launcher would not be enough to accomplish that
You could however use dual accounts for certain apps or mail and also use Secure Folder to lock out personal/private data. This way you will have some sort of multi user since the secure folder keeps data in separate encrypted form

Hi,
I have 2 LG 3 d855. One has some issue with the screen and I would like to clone it using TWRP.
I somewhat manage to do it (it required to change the BACKUP/ folder with the serial of the new device and also change some serial in the files)
But when device restart after restore, it's like the device has been reset. Asking for Wifi and google account, my apps are not present...) But the system is working and I see that the android version is OK.
