@terrorfox-tech Thanks so much, awesome! What a total mess from the Opera programmers though. What is the point with this sidebar-QR code working for a couple of minutes and then not any more? Why do you need to go to a different page to sync? Wonder what the heck they were thinking when designing this nonsense.

It's happening a lot lately. Usually it's work again after at least one day but this time it's still not working.

The Answer
go to https://opera.com/connect instead of connecting with the sidebar.
@terrorfox-tech This is (for now) the answer until the sidebar method is fixed. Thank you. -

i am also facing the same problem with conformation 6 digit code where to enter it always redirects to opera account page, i thing its probably a glitch or a technical bug which need to be addressed by OPERA. -

This was resolved by @TerrorFox-Tech months ago. His solution was "I had the same problem but was able to work around it. The key was to not do this through the sidebar. When connecting to flow on the phone you get to the point where you have to scaqn a QR code. The QR-code is not the same QR code as in the sidebar on desktop. Instead enter opera.com/connect in a new tab on the desktop. There is a QR code which is compatible with your phone setup. After scanning this QR code it should show the same 6 digits as on the phone. Acknowledge on the desktop tab they are the same"

It's horrible. Flow just doesn't work for me. I scan the qr. Code is the same, then I get: "Can't connect, PC turned down the connection."
Not given any solution or anything. And there is nothing you can do. -

@christianfyp I have been using this method for a year now because the qr code and opera flows still don't ask me for the verification code. When are they gonna fix it?

It's very strange but I'm not able to complete the autenthication.. My android smartphone shows the 6 digit confirmation code but in the meantime the desktop jumps to https://auth.opera.com/account/v3/desktop/login/login-success...
This behaviour in both cases: with the QR code from the Flow panel or with the QR of the site opera.com/connect.
And the even strangest thing is that if I use Flow with my iPad everything works perfectly.
Perhaps it is a clue that the bug with Flow is caused when both the desktop PC and the Android smartphone are already connected with the same Opera account.
Any suggestions? -

@terrorfox-tech Hi there,
After reading the QR Code, I'm not able to type the code anywere ¯_(ツ)_/¯. Browser says I've succesfully loged in, but the Android phone says the oposite. Can you help?

Hi all,
I have the same problem as suikoy and iiolavoii.
Some times (means some years) ago I somehow could connect desktop and my phone. It worked for a long time now.
But today somehow the connection was lost.And if I try to reconnect my phone (even if I scan the code from the mentioned homepage instead of the sidebar) after scanning the android smartphone shows the 6 digit confirmation code but the desktop jumps to "https://auth.opera.com/account/v3/desktop/login/login-success".
There is shown "Congratulation, succesfully logged in" and the question "What do you like to do now" with the 2 buttons "Your data is synchroniced" and "Manage subscriptions". That's all.Meanwhile the code on the phone times out and then I can restart the whole procedure...
I would be grateful for help.

It's just so irritating still have this problem after all that comments and all those new version of browser.
