Google play music backup - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there!
I wanted to reset my Lg G4 but the problem last time was that it did not save my downloaded Google Play Music.
I used the integrated google backup to restore the phone and i thought it would also backup the app settings.
But it did not so i lost all the music which i downloaded.
Is there a possibilty or app to do this?
Thank you very much for your help in advance.
Greetings

There is an app called titanium backup but it requires root. It backups every part of the app you select, in fact, some people use it for piracy.

Yes i had this app on my rooted tablet. But i still got 1 year warrenty so i do not want to open the boot loader.
I find it really strange that there is no offical way supported by google because it is an google app.

[Q] Google Play "Missing Apps" Issue

Hello,
My problem is identical to the one show here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377514
Basically, when you go to "My Apps" in google play, it just says "Applications and Games owned by this account will appear here."
I am unable to download previously purchased apps.
I have tried ALL the solutions on that thread to no avail.
It happened after I upgraded my Rom to a newer version (hydrogenics 23/03 to 25/03) but I doubt it is ROM related, since flashing back to the backup of my 23/03 rom does not resolve the problem.
My Google Play app is on the latest version (3.5.15) which is supposed to solve this issue.
I am really desperate and at a loss. Anyone can help?

Have that problem to, google play only shows the installed apps you bought and not the not yet installed ones. Type the name of the app in the market search bar and you can download and install it and then it shows up in the installed apps list.
At least for me it worked

The thing is, the purchased app doesn't even say "purchased". It just states the price like I have never purchased it at all.
Then when I try to "purchase" it again, it gives me a 403 error.
When I override it with the old Android market (2.3.6) it works fine.
Do note that even with Google Play in the Browser the same problem persists (Purchased apps are not shown as purchased, but purchase history is seen in Google Wallet, trying to purchase them again gives me an error, similar to what happens in the phone). Seems to be a problem on Google's end but I don't know why. I have emailed them but they have yet to reply.

Try clearing the data in google play in settings, apps, all. Load google play and close after it has loaded it and open it again. Your apps should now be visible

Haha that's the first thing I tried. Like I said, weird thing is, even on the browser on my computer the issue persists with the purchased apps, let alone the "My Apps" list.
It's so frustrating I'm about to smash the darn thing

I think it is ROM related. Paradoxxx (Hydrogenics' dev) was aware of it anyway.
I had this problem on his 29/03 version, did a full wipe (wipe data/wipe cache/dalvik/format system) and installed the 31/03 version, all was fine.

What is this?

Does anybody know what this is?i always get it when i turn the internet connection on.

that does not look good. maybe you got yourself a virus there.
you should check your installed apps for suspicious / fake ones. also have a look at the app list in titanium backup, which will also show apps, that do not show up in the app drawer.
but in general, if i were you, i would fully wipe the device, including the internal and external sd card, flash your rom again and instead of restoring apps from a backup, let them re-install from the play store (only safe ones of course).
maybe someone that can read chinese can tell you the exact contents of that notification, but i am 97% sure that it is not something good and your personal data and privacy might be at stake.
you havent at any time installed hotmail app of google play have you??
I had similar thing happen, in chinese, and after debugging the system i narrowed it down to the hotmail app, i was getting like 40 or 50 empty mssge boxes a day, once i uninstalled it, it stopped.
From the screenshot, that is advertisement in Chinese language.
I would recommended you to recall the last application that you have install to the phone, remove it and see did it help?
At the same time, both applicationa that can be found in Google Play may help to prevent similar issue happened in future. ^^
- AdAway
- Ad Network Detector

Both freeware below that you can grab from Play Store can assist to list down the installed apps by date:
AppZorter Lite for TouchWiz
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.demidoes.appzorter.lite
Easy Uninstaller
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.uninstaller
Hope this help.

Good thing you've solved the problem.
I assume you were receiving Airpush ads; and to prevent this happening in the future, and also for others who come across these, I recommend Addons Detector from the Play Market. It finds the culprit app.

Can't establish a reliable data connection

Recently, the Google Play store stopped working for me. It kept saying "No Connection" and the Retry button didn't do anything.
I looked up a few solutions, and none of them worked. Finally, I gave up and reset my device to factory settings.
Now, when I try to set up my account, it sits for a minute and then says "Cant establish a reliable data connection to the server".
What should I do?

By the Android Version I think you probably dont have a custom rom. Now since you don't, the easiest way without spending hours on the internet researching is to call your phone provider's technical service and they'll help you. This is a direct and easier method rather then searching online.

Sorry about that. Well if you didn't root it, you should have your warranty and Samsung would definitely help you.
I wouldn't recommend taking any device back unless you have exerted all the possibilities of a fix. People's time is precise in my opinion.
What you can do is try factory resetting your device, it might of been a issue relating to updating the Google Play (Market) application.
Hope this helps.

To clear the data, you find the application (Market) in the applications section of Settings, and then press the button that says "clear data".
I did that, and nothing changed.

That's not what clearing data means. You would have to go to settings, apps, find the play store, and then clearing the data

Yes, my device was rooted before I reset, and it still is. I have been able to get most of my apps back by using Aptoide (alternative to Market, doesn't require google account).

Well since you have a Google account, try this. Log into your Google account on the computer. Go to the play store. Go to my apps. And download it from there. I highly doubt this will work because you don't have a connection but its worth a quick shot. Also since you do have root, did you backup your apps via titanium or any other app? You could get all your apps and data back that way.

I tried downloading from my PC, but it didn't work because the account wasn't synced. I was able to get pretty much everything back by using the Aptoide store and downloading the .apk files manually. I don't need an account on the device to use it anymore, so everything's fine.
I came out with a solution for you, but you will need to take a couple of steps to get it completely working.
First thing you need to do, is download a Play Store APK file, and save it onto your device. (Click here to download)
Next step, since you're rooted is finding a Root File Explorer to remove the Play Store file you have installed on your device. ( Try This *Note, haven't tested myself*!! ) )
When it's removed, feel free to install the play store apk from the first step to your device.
Hope this helps, is so, feel free to like.

The SGP has a bug inside the wifi that consistently drops and somehow reconnects without any notification. I believe that this is the problem your experiencing and there is no fix for it.

[Q] Remove specific app from Play Store list

Hi,
I'd like to know if there's any way I can remove an specific app from the Play Store list, without uninstalling it. Or if there's a way to remove this app from the apps that are checked for updates.
The reason is that I have a Motorola Defy+ and I like the stock music player, which is just fine. There's an update called Tune Wiki which is, in my opinion, pure crap. So in order to install updates of all my other apps I have to install one by one, because I can't choose the option "update all" since it would update the music player too.
Hope I was concise and clear. Thanks in advance for your help.

Well. Benn testing this issue for ya here on my end. I am on the updated version. And sorry....no you can not remove installed apps. I may be wrong...but I can not find any way to make it more customized.

Well thanks for replying, now I know
Hope something comes up.

[Q] Best Folders Autosync App?

Hello all,
After searching Google Play I noticed there are many different autosync apps. Thing is, I'm searching for an app that gives me the ability to select folders on my Android Phone to pair them with folders on my OneDrive account so that the app IMMEDIATELY syncs every new file that appears in those selected Android folders to their paired folders on OneDrive. Kind of like a backup to my OneDrive account of the folders that I select.
Anyone who knows a good app that satisfies these needs?
