Help: Syncing after first turn-on - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
When you first open a new phone ( in my case galaxy s8+ ), you are prompted to enter your google account.
if you have a backup you'll get the following screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In case you chose not to enter a Google account at this stage, and you decided to do it later, you won't get this option.
for example, you will be able to sync contacts if you enter a Google account later, but you won't be able to restore your applications or call history.
I couldn't find inside the settings how to perform this special first-run syncing. is there a way to perform it without factory reset?
Maybe sending an intent with ADB to the app that is responsible for it?
Thanks,
Ana

anyone?

There is a option in Google drive app to manage device backup, I think you can restore it from there, not 100% sure but I think I saw an option like that on the app.

Sorry but I don't think you can without resetting your phone, or at least I have not heard or read about anyone restoring from drive without resetting. You can install apps from the store and restore the app data automatically after installing, I think the option is in the backup and reset section in the settings menu of the device.

SOLVED
nvm

Do you have google+ installed? If yes, you probable have the latest version. I have the same problem, I just download another version (not the last one) and it works again. Or maybe you have remove some apps before flashing?

[Q] Application Data restore

If I understand the following function in SGS2 correct, google servers back up my application data wifi Passwords and other settings in cloud on their servers.

If this is actually correct, then I dont even need an app like Titanium backup and wouldnt have to think twice about installing a new ROM since all my app data and personal settings will be restored automatically.
But after installation of a new ROM (with wipe data/factory reset) google account downloads and installs all my apps from the market but does not also restore the app data along with it. I noticed even my wifi passwords are not restored since I had to give passwords again, after the new rom was intalled, in order to access my wifi network.
I am on UnNamed 2.1.1.
Am I missing something? Your help appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
yes in my experience it has never saved any of my WIFI settings or app data. Its pretty misleading on Google's part that they back up everything. Also if there is any sort of interruption in the app download from the market then all hope of getting those app back are lost and you have to manually download them (I had that happen a couple of times).
It is misleading and some ROMs also disable the auto restore function. Definitely get titanium backup. Just be careful restoring system data. Usually best to only restore missing apps with data.

titanium backup has never saved my wifi connections or passwords when I tell it to, why not?
"Wi-Fi Access Points" no?

[Q] server settings

i cant add account on cyanogenmod, it asks me domain\username password and server please help
Flash google apps first
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
i tried installing play store, when i run it it asks me if i want to add new account i go yes and nothing happens... i run it again and it force closes
You need google apps first on cm9, flashing just play store won't work
how to do that?
i installed google apps, now when i add account and launch play store it says server error and im connected to wifi
If its not to much to ask, reflash after wipe, first flash cm9, right after that, without restarting, flash gapps.
Wipe just the cache and reboot.
Its all written in cm9 thread, should have read.
i just did full cache wipe, dalvik wipe, full data wipe, flash cm9, flash gapps and still the server error
Ok what account you are adding?

Can't open your first picture, but according to your second, you have problem with play store, not google account.

No I don't, but you can try cleaning play store cache from applications.
You didn't get it!
You started a thread with wrong info, you don't have a google account problem, you have play store not working problem.
Update your title or search for market issues you will find many here.
Don't start a new one about play store not working.

Looks like its spinning cause it's searching thru the emulator (SDCARD0) should be searching thru SDCARD. See if you can get to settings and click on preferences, then second set is the backup folder location. Click it, set search whole device, tthen when it's done select use current device. Hopefully this help.

If u have 2 SIMs, use only the 1. If you also use Sdcard remove it and try again with only 1 SIM slot and nothing else.
I only have 1 sim so that cannot be it I tried in both the first and second slot and both don't work.

Tried multiple things and it did not work thanks for the try tho. So you have any other solution for this? Or would factory reset be better
Fixed it by factory resetting it and it worked just fine.
Logging out and logging back in worked for me
