Yes this is the only method that worked (Opera 80.6.4244.78244 on Android and Opera Stable 108.0.5067.20 on Windows PC). I'll say it step by step:
- Open opera.com/connect on PC
- Scan QR code from Phone
- When PC page says "Connection successful" go to phone and reopen Opera for Android (Click switch apps and slide Opera to close it then open it)
- Flow should work now (If not try checking IF connected to the same Opera account)
IMPORTANT: Developers must either make Connect page on PC to have confirmation code from phone or disable confirmation code on phone when connecting to a PC (as i think it's needed phone to phone)

One thing i noticed other the time, if you have an external VPN connected before starting Opera Stable (Windows), you lose account connection and so Sync and Flow are disabled each time. I didn't loose account connection since i don't connect the VPN before starting Opera anymore.

@terrorfox-tech this is not working for me. I'm using the website QR code and tried the sidebar QR code, but none of them make the confirmation code pop up on my desktop. Please help

Here this method worked too.
But I had to read in the Opera-forum long time and a lot of threads until I found this.
It's a shame that such an error is not fixed after years by the developers. And the cuminity needs to search for different workarounds to keep it running... -

@achhid the opera.com/connect method used to work for me too but it doesn't anymore
I don't know what else to do, I miss my flow T_T -

Alternatively, this fix from Reddit worked for me:
*Scan the qr code on your computer with your phone
When you get to the confirmation code page on your phone, open the app list on your android and swipe away Opera(literally close the app, right on the confirmation code screen).
Re-open Opera for Android, Flow should be linked on both devices*

I used this opera.com/connect QR code and the desktop browser does not request the confirmation code from the phone.
So what is another solution? -

@gracetheartist opera.com/connect used to word for the confirmation code but now once you scan the qr code it automatically reverts to "Your now logged it!" instead of allowing me to put in my confirmation code to connect to my flow.

In 2024 and since long time I have similar issues. It's getting annoyed. For this reason, I started to change my browser.
opera.com/connect using this link, I don't get a section for confirmation code. It says that you log in now. But I can't type my code anywhere, so I always fail to connect flow.
I never find any section to type confirmation code. I did with this link, I did via sidebar, I deleted and re-upload everything. But nope. It really drives me crazy now.

@terrorfox-tech Doesn't work. I see no code on desktop through this method. I just see a page saying I'm "now logged in" and two buttons. Useless for connecting my devices.
@mmccall worked.
...but I don't need flow, I need my desktop device to upload its stuff into the sync storage so my mobile receives it. -

So for all searching, if you have issues connecting, just install Opera Touch for Android. It works like charm with My Flow. At the time it's the only solution I found. I did it through the sidebar on PC. Have no idea what they did to brake it on other mobile Opera's, but at least it works that way.
Hope I'd help someone.
