A modification for the Discord Android App

Aliucord

Aliucord is a modification for the Android Discord app

⚠️ Important Information

PLEASE NOTE THAT this is a MODIFICATION of the Discord APP and this is AGAINST THE DISCORD TOS. Use it at your own risk.

Supported Android Versions

• Android 7 (SDK 24) - Android 14 QPR2 (SDK 34)
• arm64, armeabi-v7, x86_64, x86

Supported Discord version

• 126.21 / Stable 126021 (You don't need the apk, the installer will download it for you)

🎨 Features

• No root needed
• Robust plugin system
  • Allows swapping in and out your plugins without needing to rebuild Aliucord
  • Toggle on and off, configure or uninstall your plugins via the plugins page
• In-app updater to keep Aliucord and your plugins up-to-date
• Blocks most Discord Tracking/Analytics (doesn't completely block all tracking, that's not really possible)
• Crash logging (for the rare cases we fail to catch errors)
  • In-app crash log page to give a more native feel
  • Logs are also saved to Aliucord/crashlogs for easy access outside of the app

📲 Installation

1. Download and install Installer-release.apk from latest release
2. Open the newly installed "Aliucord Installer" app from your app drawer
3. Click "Install", then choose the "Download" option
4. Wait for it to finish patching the Discord APK
5. Click "Install" once prompted by Android and wait for Aliucord to finish installing. If the installer just stops or the apk fails to install just try again and it should work
6. If Google Play warns you about this application being unverified, ignore it. This happens because Aliucord is built & signed locally on your device so Play Protect doesn't recognise the signature¹
7. Open Aliucord, grant access to files (it needs this for finding plugins), log in to your account, and voila! Aliucord is at your fingertips!

¹ If you'd like, you can disable this warning by turning off Play Protect in Google Play's settings, play protect is useless.

Play Protect can be turned off by tapping on your user icon in the top right of Google Play, tapping on "Play Protect," tapping on the cog icon in the top right, and finally toggling "Scan apps with Play Protect" to off. This may result in Google Play "nagging" you to re-enable it sometimes when sideloading apps.*

🔌 Plugin Installation

1. Join our support server and visit the #plugins-list channel for a list of available plugins
2. Hold down the message (NOT the link, the entire message) with the desired plugin and click "Open PluginDownloader"
3. Find the desired plugin in the list and click install. It should immediately start working, however some plugins may require you to restart to make them fully work

⚠️ IF YOU CAME HERE FROM A YOUTUBE TUTORIAL:

• PluginDownloader now comes preinstalled with Aliucord so you don't need to install it
• If you were promised free nitro, you were clickbaited. The most that is possible is free emotes (sends emote image links instead)

🚬🐛 Troubleshooting

• Try closing and then reopening Aliucord
• Double check that Aliucord has permission to access files
• Reinstall Aliucord using the installer

...and if none of these work, please visit our support server and go to #support for help!

🧱 Building from source

See .github/workflows/build.yml for all build steps.

I would like Aliucord to have a root solution so it could replace the default Discord app (like YouTube Vanced). Because I would like all the Discord links to open in Aliucord and it to have icon pack/LawnIcons support.

What happens when the bug or crash occurs?

What happens is when i press the plus symbol at the bottom left corner to send things, it freezes up then crashes

I want it to actually let me send images and videos instead of freezing up and crashing

How do you recreate this bug or crash?

All I did it was by pressing the plus symbol

FDroid release?

Would it be possible to get an fdroid release up, or is that not an option?
Because that'd be sick.

Auto Update Plugin Option

Personally I would not use this feature, but a lot of people would

THIS OPTION SHOULD BE OFF BY DEFAULT

And should have a warning about potential malicious plugin updates

AppCloner-like Feature Request

This is a suggestion for the additional functionality within the Aliucord Installer.

Since AppCloner has issues with Aliucord, and easy in-app account switching is not possible when using 2FA, I suggest the addition of a tool within the installer which allows for multiple copies of Aliucord to be installed at once.

Additionally, having the app name and icon editable per each copy would make keeping multiple apps distinct from one another much easier. I realize names and icons typically can be changed within a launcher, but these changes are not persistent throughout the entirety of a device.

Occasional crashing on startup after 96.3 update

Discord Account

snappyapple632#0632

What happens when the bug or crash occurs?

When opening Aliucord, the app may occasionally crash. These crashes appear to be random.

What is the expected behaviour?

Aliucord should not crash on startup.

How do you recreate this bug or crash?

1. Force stop Aliucord
2. Start Aliucord
3. Repeat if crash does not occur (or use RestartButton if installed).
4. The app should crash upon startup.

Crash-log

This crash does not generate a log within Aliucord. Here is a logcat instead:

Add a warning popup when you enable developer mode

hairyfred#9876

What is it that you'd like to see?

A pop up appears warning the user to not enable it unless they know what there doing

ALSO add a banner on the main installer screen saying developer mode is enabled, this will help support tell if the user has enabled it

What would be better is a yes or no prompt with the pop up, and make the user wait 10s to press yes to enable it

[feature request] making a custom nickname to someone

so basically it would be pretty cool to make a nickname to a specific person.
so for example if I have a friend that in dms or server his name is "kairo" I could use this plugin and change his name to let's say "pie" so in the server chat or in dms it'll show "pie" instead of "kairo"

[Feature Request] Add a button to open aliucord's plugin folder

Since Aliucord is getting more and more popular, as the store isn't coming, it would be better to add a 3-dots menu in the plugin page, where it shows an option to open Aliucord's plugin folder

[Installer] Does not prompt for install on Android 7

Installer just returns to main page when finished patching. Have to manually initiate the install from the apk file.

Bridged Matrix Space

Discord Account

No response

What is it that you'd like to see?

Currently, only a single Matrix room is bridged to the Discord server, with no notable importance to it whatsoever for developmental or social communication. Creating a Space and bridging more of the helpful channels (such as support, development channels, or even the recreational social channels) could make the project easier to develop for. Ideally, the same could be applied to IRC and Telegram.

[Feature Request] Alert when a user extracts the plugin instead of dropping the zip file in the plugin folder

As I saw in the support channel, some new users extracts the plugins instead of dropping them. Makes sense to extract it, considering that zip files were made to be extracted.
My suggestion to fix this issue is to alert users when a folder in the plugins folder is found.

Add ability to share plugin folder

Quality#0001

What is it that you'd like to see?

It'd be great to be able to share and apply the entire plugin folder.

I'm aware one can simply zip the folder and upload it - however - It'd be nice to just add an extra button to the file upload screen that zips the plugin folder and selects it as attachment, then in similar fashion to how the plugin installation already works, when long pressing a plugin pack, it'll install the entire thing.

[FEATURE REQUEST] Multiple Aliucord apps and customisable backend

So i saw this issue which was closed because you can't change the backend when plugins load, since the load too late, so maybe a custom option to change the backend would be good? Also since reinstalling Aliucord and having to reinstall it just to use the other backend is just unreasonable, why not make it so you could install multiple versions of the app?

This issue pairs with Aliucord/Manager#42 fairly well too

(Though reading #8 suggests that it might be hard to create multiple instances of the app :/)

Feature Request: custom notification icon/color

Discord Account

@hai!touch Studios#1967

What is it that you'd like to see?

I use both the original Discord app and Aliucord on different accounts, and it gets confusing when both the apps send notifications.

On AppCloner, you can change the icon and color of the notifications, which makes it a lot easier to tell my Discord notifications apart:

Go into more detail...

It would be great if Aliucord had a default icon and color that’s different from the original. But it would be even cooler if the user could customize them in the manager before building the Aliucord app!

[Bug] VC connectivity

When you join a vc everything is nice and you are able to connect.
But if you are getting dragged from that vc into another one your client will just tell you that you are disconnected and you wont connect to the new one.

This makes it impossible to talk in channels which you cant see.

[Feature Request/Fix] The app launch times

The app launch seems to be taking a while, I don't know if it's inherently a problem with how the app and plugins function but if there's a temporary fix or anything of that sorts that'd be great! ❤️

Aliucord Supported Downgrading

Discord Account

Juliaxe#1058

What is it that you'd like to see?

It would be nice to be able to downgrade to older versions using an easy menu just like Minecraft has. The catch? Developer Mode must be enabled in the installer before being able to downgrade and when attempting to downgrade, the user should receive a fair warning that this may cause file damage or render some plugins usable. The warning should show up for 10 seconds before the user can exit out of it and proceed with downgrading.

Go into more detail...

It should also be possible to save a backup of plugins and settings to revert to, both when upgrading and downgrading between Aliucord versions. This backup can be loaded to make plugins work again.

Use case example: A new Aliucord update comes out. I save a backup of the current plugins and settings. If the update messes with plugins I deem important, I will downgrade and retrieve old plugins and settings.

CrashRecovery but for Aliucord

Description

A feature to recover from crashes caused by plugins. Or at least show the error that it is causing, plus some debug information

More info

Most of time you need to use logcat or something to get the debug information from Aliucord: if a plugin fails, if its a bug from Aliucord, etc. Sadly, logcat is root-only. Yeah there is the adb debugger, but you'll need to have a computer, and most of the phone users don't have a computer at all. So my suggestion is a plugin that gets those logs when aliucord crashes.

Recently I came across Aliucord again and was going to join the support server for the list of plugins, but when I went to join, it wasn't letting me so I checked to see if I could join another in which it did, but I couldn't join Aliucord's. I went on Desktop browser mode and it said that I was banned. I don't recall getting banned last time I was in it / why I got banned.
