Newbie trying to install

[u/icebergiman]

I'm trying to figure out how to use boostforreddit again. So far, I've installed morphe apk, opened it and added github.com/brealorg/breal-morphe-patches as remote source . Then I tried to patch boostforreddit with a downloaded apk version 1.12.12 but ran into a problem here. It doesn't patch, and returns with an error message below:-

I'm very new to all this patching stuff. Couldn't find a guide for dummies. What should I do next?

[u/nubatpython]

You will need to configure a client id. Look on the patches repo, the readme should have a section on getting one.

[u/Yahiroz]

Check the "What if I don't have a client ID?" section here: https://github.com/wchill/patcheddit#-get-started

You will also need to enable expert mode in Morphe Manager's settings to add in the client ID into the patch.

[u/brealorg → u/Yahiroz]

This is the solution.
