Title: Restoring from Google drive backup
Post by: DanskFantom on September 10, 2022, 02:08:11 am

How do you restore an android Google drive backup to the Communicator?

There is no option at boot when doing a sytem restore and no option within Google Drive or System Settings after first booting in.

I used the 'Activity Launcher' app from Play Store, and then clicked on, I think it was, 'CloudRestoreFlow' under 'Android Setup' app. This then launches the cloud first-time activity on the phone. I did this on my Astro and Cosmo. Whilst I wish Planet used a normal stock flow, they don't, so people can run it Degoogled.
