Question issues backing up my Pixel 6 pro to google one - Google Pixel 6 Pro

anybody else having issues backing up their pixel 6 pro to google one

Heh, you're right, same here. I hadn't noticed. Stuck on "Starting first backup..." (that I started yesterday). Same after a reboot, stuck on "Starting first backup..." and unable to choose "View details".

not seeing any issue here, backed up 54 minutes ago.

I just tried reboot, clearing app cache and storage for "Google One", and I manually ran the app again. So far stuck again on "Starting first backup..." with a grayed out "View details" button.

I also had this problem on my first day and couldnt manually force it. Then after one night on the charger with wifi on, it just automatically did the backup and now it works (shows backup completed).

I got the phone two days ago and I started the first backup after the OTA, all apps were updated, and I had unlocked the bootloader. I had no idea it thought it was still showing as doing that first backup and hadn't rebooted since that first day. https://one.google.com/home does indeed show only my old device. Weird. I'll check back in a week.
Edit: Interestingly, my wife never manually opened her app until I just asked her. It was weirdly defaulting to show her Yahoo email address, but she switched to her GMail account, proceeded the rest of the way into the app, and it shows her that the backup of her Pixel 6 Pro is complete as of 22 hours ago.

Yup....same issue here.
Also can't get messages chat features to show connected.... Been saying connecting since yesterday

I just checked and the Google One app now says that my most recent backup completed four hours ago.

I had this issue too but was able to fix it by going into Google One > Settings > Manage backup settings & turning on "multimedia messages" & then hitting "backup now" & it now seems to have now completed the first backup.

My phone will not back up.
I'm rooted with canary 23013 & UNSF 2.2
On Google One, call history device settings have 0 data. I think the SMS backup contains media only, since SMS was 0 KB until I enabled media backup.
Anyone else having this issue?

How long has it been like that? If you only first noticed the problem today, check back in a couple of days. Mine's been backing up regularly at least once a day since mine started working two days after I noticed it wasn't working.

It's been like this for 6 days. I'm thinking about wiping and troubleshooting as I add on mods. Usually I rely on Google backup to restore all my settings and I might have to do a clean wipe and rely on TiBu to restore what I need. Anyways I appreciate the feedback! Thanks

Aigh! Sorry to hear that. Good luck troubleshooting, hope you can either narrow it down or get it solved one way or another.

The weirdest thing is that it asks me to enter in my passcode when I back up through settings, but not the Google one app. That's probably where the issue lies. I'm guessing it's a permission issue that's not allowing The backup manager to read SMS, call history, and the device settings.

Factory reset resolved the issue

Probably, a glitch at the time to tried to.

No issues with Google one on my P6P either. It says last backup was 12 hours ago.

How do you restore the backup after a factory reset?

Tell the setup that you don't have the old phone to restore from (via cable). It'll then proceed to offer cloud restore.

[Q] Text messages dissapear on leaked 2.2?

Hello. I have never had this issue before until I installed the leaked 2.2 OTA. Today I went into the marketplace and google said it could not connect to my google account, which was odd because that had never happened before. It told me to enter a captcha and then I proceeded to go to the marketplace like nothing happened.
I didn't really think anything of it until about an hour later when I opened up my text messaging app. The only texts that were there were a few texts that a friend sent me earlier today. Hundreds of my other texts have just simply disappeared. Could this be related to my google account getting logged out somehow?
I am really not sure if this has to do with the leaked OTA or not, but this is just extremely weird that this would happen. Has this happened to anyone else? If so, any fix?
The leaked OTA should have required a full wipe of your phone. SMS messages are included in that, I'm afraid, which is also why you'd have to relog into the Market.

I don't think you understand what I was trying to ask. I fully understand that installing the OTA required a full wipe. After doing a wipe and installing the OTA, I restored the data from a nandroid backup I had made prior to flashing the OTA. I did this by using the advanced restore option. I got all my apps, text messages, call logs, ect back with the new OTA. Everything was working fine for about 2 days until out of nowhere I was logged out of my google account and then my text messages just disappeared. Luckily I had the majority of them saved in that very nandroid backup but I'm still puzzled why this happened in the first place.
Oops double post.

Ohhhhhhh. Now I understand what happened. That's extremely odd. I have no idea what could have caused it. Hasn't occurred to me yet.

Still working on mine running 5.1.1, also. Aside from the fact I can't find the 'no lock screen' app, or whatever it's called, FoxFi is working AOK. I even did a factory reset, even though the phone was working fine, to try to confirm a battery issue I think I was having where it would seem to drain a bit faster after upgrading from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 with a slight layover at 5.0.1, where if I remember right, I didn't unplug the phone, I think, before moving on to 5.1.1. I'm copying the backup I made of the internal storage back to the phone right now, and after that I'll perform a full apps+data restore with Helium, since the internal storage is where the backup is. Hopefully, that 'no lock screen' thing will either reappear, or I'll find it again on my computer or here on XDA. The last time I had to deal with using FoxFi unlocked, it drove me nuts not being able to the lock screen I prefer.

Thanks for the link. As soon as I clicked download, I found the thing in my OneDrive downloads folder:silly: By the way, if you've never used Helium to backup/restore your apps before, it'd kind of goofy. For some reason, whenever I use it, it sometimes wants to make me run the procedure multiple times. Like earlier today when I performed a full apps+data backup, it did the whole thing in one go. But when trying to restore them, it wanted to hang on a certain game for a while, after which it stopped with 88 apps left to restore. It should all still work, but this is the first time I tried restoring a backup with Helim, so hopefully the way it's making me work it right now won't be a problem. If it does, I may just have to resort to using My Backup to backup the apps and Helium to backup the data, unless there's a better backup/restore app that does what Helium does, but a bit more reliably.
Is working now, I did a factory reset and reinstall everything . I backup everything first with Helium....

All SMS apps crashing

Hello! Yesterday I decided to update my OP3 to the latest version, and as usual, I rooted it and restored with titanium backup. Everything went as usual, but today I decided to send a SMS and the stock app kept crashing, so I tried to use messenger (from Facebook) it crashed when I enabled SMS.
Later, I searched about this and found that i needed to clean data and cache, but when I checked on the application section I had none, the cache and data were empty.
I've already tried to use 3rd party apps to send messages, but all crashed the same way as the stock.
How can I fix this? I don't want to factory reset again my phone, is a pain to restore the data.

Thats been an issue with the OTA updates. Seems not to work right (never advised anyone to do ota as a single millisecond of data loss causes issues)
You may have to end up Factory resetting. Also TIBU messes up google messaging service so you will end up with apps not giving notifications properly.

People have said that reinstalling the apps without wiping the data works. I just set everything up again. But then I like most developers use less then 10 apps on our devices other then the stock apps.

Ok. I'll try a factory reset and reinstaliing the apps without TiBu. I'll get back to you when I finish this.
It worked, thanks!

Google Play Services keeps stopping

Woke up to my phone displaying "Google Play Services keeps stopping" I read a few posts and tried what was recommended. Tried to clear cache, freeze/unfreeze app, reboot, etc. No change. Some one suggest a Factory reset. Seems like a quick fix.
I am now reflashing the Mar release with -w. I hope that will "fix it"
Has anyone else seen/solved this annoying problem?
EDIT: After reflashing the Mar release -w I am getting "Settings keeps stopping" Any suggestions before I have to do a full Flash/wipe?
EDIT2: I gave up on fixing the problem and ran flash-all with wipe. Now restoring my 151 user apps from Google. Have a good set of TiBu back ups too.

Hey Swieder I'm interested to know how your TiBu restore went. I maintain a full backup set that i havent ever had to use and wondering if they will be reliable on 10. I've heard data restores can be hit or miss on 10 so would be happy to hear your success. Also, why restore apps from Google? I usually turn off Google sync and do a batch app + data restore.

I let Android play restore most of the apps and associated data. Once that was done I used TiBu to fill in a few missing data pieces and apps. Worked great.

Question Data restore after wipe

For some reason I'm unable to find restore backup, where do I look for this? You would think it would be beside backup but no, and can we not back up all our apps?
There is no separate restore. It will (should) offer to restore during the initial setup after a wipe. Supposedly, it will also restore when you sign into your Google account. More info here.
And, Google incorrectly calls it a backup - it isn't. It stores info on what apps were installed, and re-installs them from the Play Store. If you sideloaded any, you have to do it again. You also have to re-login to most apps. Finally, it will only reflect the state at the last "backup." If you want to go back to what you had a month ago instead, you can't. If you had older versions of some apps, because the newer were broken or whatever, you're SOL. It will restore some settings, like wallpaper, the position of app icons, SMS messages and call logs. But overall, you will still have a lot of work to do to get your phone back to the same as it was.
If backup is "really" important, would you recommend and give a "thumbs up" to the Swift Backup application ? Recently, I woke up and discovered my old backup ( Titanium ) was now failing in its job and transitioned to Swift.

During the initial setup of the phone, at the point the phone offers to have you physically connect your phone to your "old phone" via USB-C, there's an option to click telling it you don't have the old phone available. Once you choose that, it takes you down the path of restoring from the cloud backup instead.
Naturally, you have to have it connected to Wi-Fi or mobile data before that point, preferably Wi-Fi but should work either way.
