@leocg I used Google Authenticator. I did Not have an authenticator app associated with my account. I was able to use Google Authenticator long ago without "setting up" my account, instead, just signing-in with it. I used the same email, but at that time, the Google Authenticator app didn't have "back up codes", so I don't have access to them (assuming they exist) from the first time that I used the app. And no, I didn't "back up my accounts", didn't even know that I could, but I'm using the same account now.

I know this is lack luster, but the Authenticator app changed it's UI and it's everything. So I'm worried that I was caught in between-updates and that somehow left me in a spot where I'm stuck.

I have now set up my account on Google properly and linked my phone, but back then the app never forced me. So I never did (or even knew that I could), and thinking about it, not even sure that that was a thing back then.

I recently formatted my phone, and when I tried to sign in back into Opera Auth after having reinstalled it, it asks me for a verification code from my authenticator app. I tried contacting support, but without being able to sign-in, I couldn't do that. (This is my 2nd acc). I have tried 3 different authenticator apps, but none of their codes would work. Not even the back-up codes.

Last time I did this (Before the formatting), it went pretty smoothly. But now not even the same authenticator that I used that time is working now (Google Authenticator, by the way). So now I'm left wondering, am I signed out for good? This is incredibly frustrating as I have all of the information needed to sign in, except for the code. I even have the same phone.

I wonder if this is a result of having formatted my phone before deleting my account from Google Authenticator, I doubt that, because it is the same Google account which I can sign into normally with no problem. And again, I doubt that even more because when I first downloaded Google Authenticator, I didn't have to go through half the setting up I had to, this time. (No QR codes or "security keys" or any of that stuff.)

I tried giving it sometime, but now it's been a couple of days, and I'm beginning to get frustrated because I could potentially lose all of my synched data if I can't sign in again.

So what am I to do? Is there a way I can contact Opera support directly? (Not sure if this method is "directly")

Thanks.
