I'm on Windows 10, CE 7.6, Bluestacks 5.

Using ce-server I get a pointer path to find the health value in the android game across emulator restarts.
I can also find the Health by attaching CE to Bluestacks 5 directly as well, but pointer scans return nothing in this case.

How can I find static pointers or otherwise resolve any address across emulator restarts? Also nothing shows up on find out what writes to this address. I haven't found any tutorials or guides on this. I am looking for examples, or leads on what to do.

Help is much appreciated thanks, also I'm not very knowledgeable yet so please use easier terms.

I tried anything I could think of and find/understand but even signature+structure fails...

Is the target process using ARM emulation, or is it a native x86 process?

When doing the pointerscan, tick advanced options, and then "ignore upper byte of pointers"

You could try debugging on android 9 and later

I'm on BlueStacks 5. The target is an ARM app under emulation Clash of Clans. Debugger is VEH (as recommended for Android emulators).

I went with CE Server and pointerscans work well but attaching the debugger to the app leaves the "what writes to this adress" infinitly loading / lag out. Attaching to a simple title like 2024 works flawlessly.
