Firstly, good morning/afternoon/night for you guys and thank you for
making this wonderful piece of software!
>From some time I am having an issue that the Android client can't
listen anymore for system clipboard events. I also use a clipboard
manager on my phone [1] and in newer Androids it now shows a message
like the one in [2] right after you install it. Just now I connected
the dots.
I ran the same adb command replacing its Android package id to the KDE
Connect one (org.kde.kdeconnect_tp) and now stuff is working as it
worked before.
Yeah, it's an inconvenience, but shared clipboard between all stuff is
dangerous so I can understand the decision but there is the solution
for our case.
Basically these are the commands I ran to solve the issue:
```
rhode:/ $ pm list packages| grep kde
package:org.kde.kdeconnect_tp
rhode:/ $ appops set org.kde.kdeconnect_tp SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW allow
rhode:/ $ pm grant org.kde.kdeconnect_tp android.permission.READ_LOGS
rhode:/ $ am force-stop org.kde.kdeconnect_tp
```
