## Obtaining Patched APKs
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, starting with Android 10, file managers cannot access external data of other apps without root.
|
|
You will have to manually download the patched APK via `adb`.
|
|
|
|
ADB command (assuming the first user profile):
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ adb pull /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.aliucord.manager/cache/patched/patched.apk
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This file should only be used after the patching process has successfully completed.
|
|
If the process failed at any step before "Installing", then the APK will be unusable.
|
|
|
|
The patched APK **should not be reused on another device**. Refer to the section [below](#backing-up-aliucord)
|
|
for more information.

|
## Backing up Aliucord
|
|
|
|
Note: This section is about the app installation itself, not the installed plugins, themes, and settings.
|
|
|
|
The patched Aliucord APK is tailored to the current device's Android version and CPU architecture.
|
|
Reusing a patched Aliucord APK from one device on another will likely break. Backing up and
|
|
restoring on another device will likely break.
|
|
|
|
Install Aliucord **directly via Manager** on the device you wish to use it on.
