1st off, I apologize if this has been covered previously, I did search google, and these forums, but the issue is tricky to form a search string accurately.
I recently flashed back to stock CM13.1.2. During initial setup, after signing into google, I select the google restore of my previous app data, but before it can begin, a screen pops up with Cyanogenmod's account sign-in, which is of course defunct and non-working. But whether I skip this step, try to sign in, or hit back, there is no way to continue restoring app data from my google drive account.
I've read that Oreo allows google app data restore after setup, but what can we do in Android 6? Am I to give up on restoring this app data, and use Helium or titanium backup in the future? thanks.
After each fresh install of a customer Rom, the ID of your device is change. If you CALL titanium backup the first time (if you've make a backup in history from an older Rom, Titanium ask you, if you want restore the old ID. This ID is also responsible to identify your device for restore your apps
Maybe (just maybe), you could boot into TWRP, go to advanced ---> file manager, then delete the apk corrispondent to the CM login prompt, it should be
com.cyanogen.ambient.core
located somewhere in /system/app or /system/priv-app
delete the folder then reboot

i own a rooted epic 4g and my primary gmail account password got changed. now ive lost access to the android marketplace.
i looked around online and the only solution ive seen is to 'factory data reset'. i dont want to reset my phone, though. ive also tried going to my sync list and deleting my primary gmail but it wont let me.
does anyone know of an easier solution? if not, i suppose ill just do a nand backup, reset my phone, and then nand restore everything. or will that not even work?
please help!

Add a second account through Accounts & Sync, then delete the first account.
Or, when you restore (I'm assuming through Titanium Backup), don't restore system apps/data, just user apps.
Couldn't you just reset your Gmail password? Then, open the Gmail app - it should ask you for your password - and input your new password.

i did add the second account but when i go to delete my original email account, it says i cant delete it.
no, ive always used just the basic nand backup and restore. and i cant access the app store to download titanium because i need an functioning email account to do it.
yes, i tried to restore my password but apparently i didnt provide enough accurate information. i could only answer a select few questions i actually knew.
Go to Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications
Find junk with Google in its name, click on it, choose clear data. Wash, rinse, repeat until done.
Here's a link to Titanium Backup from my Dropbox: http://db.tt/K2lwLwm
Download & install it. Then, backup all user apps and data. If you've already done a nandroid backup, just do a factory reset or go into recovery and wipe & flash a new rom.
When the rom boots, put in your other Gmail account that you know the password for and that'll be your new primary Gmail account. You can then restore your apps with Titanium Backup.

just curious, will this delete all my numbers? i should write them all down just in case, though.

if your numbers are backed up and visible in your gmail contacts, you should be fine.
Does anyone have the latest version of Shazam Encore (Paid) version working on the GSIII? I believe it is 3.11.1. I'm using Synergy ICS r-64 and the app just says connection error right after you launch and it says "Setting up Shazam."
The update just released was supposed to fix this issue but it hasn't for me. If you must ask, "Why Shazam and not Soundhound?" The answer is that Shazam works much better at identifying electronic music and DJ remixes and the like for me.
I just used it a few hours ago to test the new TV/Movie ID feature, and it worked beautifully. CM10.
No solution from me, but it is happening to me as well. I'm just stock rooted
Running Synergy r73 and it works fine.
[GUIDE] Shazam Encore - How to Fix!
After an hour of messing around with the application data folder and databases and Titanium Backup I have found a way to get this program working. This is the only way I have figured out how to get it working so far and may also work with the free version. This is more of a band-aid than a complete fix, but you will be able to use the app as long as you don't clear the data. By the way, what we are fixing here is the "Could not establish a connection (ftu.ope)" problem when launching the app, which seems to be common with TouchWiz ROMs and a few Sense variations that I've seen. This process should be adaptable to any device. Someone with a bit more knowledge on how Android applications work may wish to discuss my theories on what is actually going wrong here. But anyways...
Basically what we are doing is installing a fresh ROM, activating Shazam (or Shazam Encore), creating a backup with Titanium, exporting it to the SD card, and then nandroiding back to your original config and importing the backup. If you need directions, those are below, and it couldn't hurt to check them out real quick anyway even if you know what you're doing.
DISCLAIMER: Don't mess up your device! If you think you need help, ask before you try this!
Requirements:
-Rooted with a custom recovery
-Titanium Backup (possibly the paid version)
-Some time to kill
1. Delete Shazam Encore completely from your phone using Titanium Backup or the Application Manager in Settings.
2. Make sure you have used Titanium Backup to create a backup of something so that it saves its preferences and your Android ID. If you haven't backed up everything, maybe you should . The Android ID is automatically saved with your backup if you have not changed that from the default settings.
3. Download a ROM for your device and put it on your SD card, preferably something of a different flavor than what you are using now, although the same ROM might work.
4. Reboot to Recovery
5. Create a full nandroid backup of your device.
6. Do a fresh install of your ROM of choice according to its instructions.
7. Boot the ROM, log into your Google account, and use Play Store to install Titanium and your Pro Key if you have one.
8. Open Titanium Backup and it should prompt you to restore your Android ID. Yes, you want to restore it, and then your device will reboot immediately.
9. Download Shazam (Encore) from the Play Store and run it. It should load up and work just fine. Once it is set up, exit the app.
10. Use Titanium Backup to manually make a backup of Shazam under "Backup/Restore."
11. Once the backup is made, long press Shazam under "Backup/Restore" and select "Send latest backup..."
12. Select "App+Data (Easy Import)" and "save file locally" (top option) on your SD card. Note save location to avoid headache.
13. Reboot into recovery and restore your nandroid backup.
14. Clear the cache and dalvik just to be safe.
15. Reboot, and once your phone is up and running, use a file explorer to launch the Shazam Backup file you exported (something like com.shazam.android-xxxxxxxx.TiBkp) and open it with Titanium Backup,
16. Select to restore App AND Data.
17. Shazam should now work.
Post your success (or failure) here so I can make any edits/improvements as necessary.
Enjoy!
I contacted Titanium Backup's support on June 14th but got no reply, so I'm going to try here:
When I flash a new ROM and do a factory reset, it changes my device ID. Titanium Backup can restore your previous device ID, but only the Pro version can do that. This leads to a chicken and egg problem: if I want to restore my device ID before setting up my Google account and installing apps from Play, I need TB's pro key to be somewhere where I can restore it with TB. But the pro key does not appear in the list of back-up-able items, so I need to connect to Play to install the key application...
Is there a way to back up TB's own pro key so that I can restore it immediately upon starting up, before going through Google account setup? Alternately, does the key exist in one of the normal backup options (maybe in Accounts?), but is just not able to be backed up/restored on its own?
Thanks!
I have HTC one m8 with Factory Android Marshmallow. Im trying to check if the backup was taken through google.
I have the following settings,
"Settings > Backup & reset > Back up my data" ON
When going to "Settings > Backup & reset > Restore from HTC Backup", another screen opened "HTC Backup" and i press "Restore from backup". As a result a search starts to check all Saved backups. There is only one found with timestamp 12/9/2015 6:50PM.
I need to know if that is the accumulative backup since that time, does it contain all data i need?
I went to Account and Sync, and made sure that all options for google are enabled, and tried to manually sync all accounts but no change to available backups.
Please advice how to force backup and how to verify, i need to factory reset the phone
Hi and welcome to XDA Assist !
The HTC Backup function you use it backs-up what you have selected to the HTC servers , check the internet connection before or whether the backup function works only on wi-fi or not
The restore function refers to same HTC servers not google account
Backing-up to the Google servers is up to the google account that you may have and this must be enabled from settings/accounts/google . This will backup everything that has been marked there , if nothing has been marked then nothing has been backed-up , mark the desired options and perform a google sync from its settings (sync now)
The applications will be not be saved entirely , google servers will only link the installed apps to the playstore from your account and restored from playstore after factory reset and by adding your google account but WITHOUT their data , I mean , without their settings , just fresh apps , only the google play games will restore your progress if the play games sync has been made
Now , I know that you want to have everything restored as before and to achieve that you need either a nandroid backup which can be done from a custom recovery ( more complicated if you never did it but easy if you have time to read) , using Titanium Backup but you need root access or using Helium for non non rooted devices , from playstore , very easy and safe
Good luck !
Hello. today I uploaded a custom Rom with full wipe and lost access to the telegram application backup that I had made via totanium backup. Unfortunately, to log in to the telegram, I need a phone number and I forgot which I gave when registering. I have always restored titanium backup and the application works. today i lost that and i have been trying all day to recover these 3 files from my deleted memory. Is it possible at all?
Hi, have you signed in Google and backed up data from Android device to Google account before factory reset? If yes, you can do it easily as below:
1. Go to Settings on your Android phone.
2. Sign into the same Google account that you use to back up data, find Backup and reset option and enable Automatic restore. Then the backup files will be automatically synced to your phone.
Good luck to you.
