Hi everybody,
I'm running unofficial CM12.1.
I installed yesterday Cyanogen OS 12 and when I was setting uo my Google Account it offered me the option the restore my options saved in my Google account. The problem is that it only offered to restore from my old phone which there are months since the last time I used and its setting are outdated.
I restored my TWRP backup and now I'm searching for a solution to install Cyanogen OS 12 because I don't wanna to enter all my saved wifis, change the sound settings, setting up Gmail app again.
How can I make sure the current Oneplus instalation shows up in restore from Google Account options?
Can this happen because I'm running a newer Android version at this moment (5.1)??
thanks in advance!!

Hi I have been trying to solve this for the past 4 hours and I am going in circles!
I uninstalled a bunch of apps trying to clear some memory and I think I have taken out some important system apps. I have a P500 which was on stock GB, the phone is rooted and I've now been booting some different roms but I still keep having problems. The setup wizard has gone, so I can't sync my gmail account, and so I can't access google play.
Originally I had a problem where the screen was blank only when unlocked, I could pull down the drawer but couldn't access anything. I did a factory reset but same problem. I did installed a completely stock Froyo and got the same problem I have installed gmail from the sd card, but it doesn't open once installed.
In accounts under settings there is no option for gmail, just exchange and corporate. This is the same with all the roms I have tried.
If this has been brought up before can someone please link me the solution?
Thankyou in advance

Need to go to Verizon account and export them to Google and turn off backup assistant while you are there.
Hi everybody, after a clean installation of every cm12 based rom at the first boot it asks to restore previous installed apps related to a google account. I noticed that even if I sync everything in settings->accounts->google->"my-email" after the flash the app list isn't update. So my question is: what I have to do for having that list updated before I make a clean installation?
Thank you
I am not sure I understand your question, do you want to be able to back up apps before flashing a ROM and then restore them? If so use titanium backup available in the Google play store

Hi, thank you for your reply.
No, not a backup.. when you boot the first time Lollipop roms, after you set up your wifi connection it asks you if you wanna restore some apps in a list but, even if they are really previously installed apps, they are not the last one installed by me before the flash of a new rom.
Hi to everybody! I decided to reset my Google Nexus 5 after a problem (there was a bug on an upgrade of Google Play Store and I couldn't use it) with the upgrade of Lollipop (I don't remember which version was). Anyway once booted it LOCKS (for ever) in setting along the network settings. How can I repair it??? Would I install a new ROM? Thanks so much.
When I set up a new phone, usually I get a prompt to sign into google account and restore apps and data.
But in colour OS, I didn't get that.
However is there any way to manually get that ?
( I lost my previous phone (moto g4 plus) and I am hoping there is someway which will help me restore as much data as possible into this new phone (realme 5 pro) )
Settings>Other accounts>Google>Add>Sync now.
I can do this without issue. I'm from Hungary btw.

Hi.
I can add the google account, but when we set up a new phone that has an experience close to the google's android, we get prompted with an option to restore the data that was backed up on our old phone.
Here I am unable to do that.

Hm. Yes. I remember now. I don't think we can do that on this device. I'm sure though it almost does the same that I described. Although I'd not be looking for that new device setup prompt for in China Google services isn't available. I'd say we're lucky that play store is pre-installed for devices outside China. Sorry but I don't think I can help. I'm still trying to get used to Color OS.
have you try reset to factory setting? because in my case, the first time i boot the phone, there is the option to restore data backed up on google. I dont use that tho, so i can't tell if it work or not.
but there is an option to backup or restore right above reset to factory setting, so maybe that is what you are looking for..

I didn't get that option at all.
It just gives me an option to use realme's app to transfer data.

No.
It only allows to back up from this phone
but doesn't restore the data from a different phone.
