Hey there Daksh,
I've previously tried both of the solutions you presented and, while the app on my phone appears to work just fine (right up until the moment when it's supposed to hook into the Your Phone app on the PC), the app on my PC still does that whole crash-and-burn thing that has been its defining feature lately. The app crashes immediately to the state that I pictured in my post from the 11th of April, and really doesn't get any better from there.
