Why Your google backup account can not be configured? - OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

As shown in the enclosed image, since October 27, no backups were made to google drive storage. In the settings, you can see that no backup account is set up. But in the settings it can be seen that it can not be configured.
I tried to delete my google account and then reset it. I've also set up this account for backup, but no change. How can I fix this hijab?

Has anyone ever encountered such a mistake?
I do not think this can not be fixed!

Old Email account association

Recently i Flashed my rom to have the TF3D interface for the HTC Diamond, works fine, except for the landscape view but thats not a major issue. I backed up all of my file fine and everything is ok. when i go to restore my backup all of my emails from previous are still there which is fine, my problem is that they are not associated with an account just yet from my newly flashed rom, also when i do set up a my account (gmail) the device sees the settings from the original emails and will not allow me to save the account as it was before.
Any Help
Try setting up the account BEFORE restoring the backup.
PIM Backup for example doesnt let you restore if there's no account of the same name already setup so you can't get it wrong.
Might be different with whatever backup software you use though.

[Q] Syncing to Google

This should be absurdly easy but for some reason is not working for me. I've been saving my accounts to Google when I make a new contact, and I am doing so now as well. When I flash they don't get synced back, even if I use Tibu to restore the SMS data. Also now I made sure Google Contact sync is set up and added a couple of the missing people back and have checked and they still don't show up in my Google contacts. What gives? How do I save all my new contacts to the cloud/Google account? Am I missing something simple?
Check your gmail on a computer to see if they are in the cloud.
You never said if you keep your accounts set to auto sync or not, just spit balling.
Hey,
Sorry guys when I said I made sure my Google contact sync is set up and I checked my Google contacts I actually meant the auto-sync is set up and I checked the Google contacts on my gmail.
Any other ideas?
P.S. It does seem the Tibu restore showed up after I restarted, but still doesn't explain why my contacts wouldn't just sync to Google anyways? I will be getting a new phone pretty soon and obviously am going to need them to be on Google Contacts to put them back onto my new phone, but they aren't showing up
That seems a bit strange. It seems like you're doing things correctly (from what I remember). Well as an alternative you can always export your contacts to your SD as a vCard file and save that on your PC to reinstall your contacts onto your new phone.

Backup Accounts & Sync in android settings?

Hey All,
I've been meaning to ask this question for a while. I guess this can pretty much apply to any phone. I was wondering if there's a way to backup Accounts under "Accounts and Sync" as well as Wifi access points and any other miscellaneous settings. when i switch to new phone/tablet i have to reenter all my google accounts and i have 10 of them
If each account is linked to the same phone, then no. One account will use one set, and so on and so forth. But each time you set up those accounts, it should only have to be done at initial setup, and then they'll each sync whenever you're using that specific account. I suppose you could link to a cloud storage, which could constantly update each account, but I'm not sure if phone specific settings (and are those different for each account?) would transfer over.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I thought it would be easy since all i want is to backup the google accounts already stored on the device, or is there any other app that can backup your entered in google accounts and restore them to new devices, i have 10 and having to enter the email and password each time is annoying

Contacts not working

I believe something may have gone wrong when I tried restoring system apps from my OPO to my new OP3T. Now my google contacts do not sync, there are no contacts showing in the contacts app. When I try to save a contact the tick to save is grey and I cannot tap it. I have tried clear data and force stop but it doesn't fix it. Any ideas?
Just a thought: Why restoring a system app if all data of theese are stored only? Especially contacts app which is connected to your Google account.
I would try to reset the apps, delete the Google account in account settings and apply the Google account once more and try/hope it now syncs.
How can I reset all apps? I really want to avoid a full factory reset. I'm happy to use abd, flash, twrp etc

Whatsapp not backing up to google drive

Hello
Since Oct 31st, my whatsapp account is unable to backup to google drive. I have deleted most of the pics, videos, audios to decrease the size. I have also tried to change the backup drive account, and have uninstalled and re-installed the app. Nothing has worked.
Is this happening to anyone else?
Please help.
thanks
Maybe it's somehow related to this:

Same thing is happening with me since 29th November. If I manually back up then a message pops up saying "Unable to backup messages" after creating a local back up. Must be something with the update. What version are you on? I am on 2.18.361.
