Moving to new phone

[pikov]

Full Backup lets me write an abp file to the cloud. I selected Google drive and sure enough the file is there.

One the new phone, I go to Import/aCar and it looks only in local storage and it looks for a CSV file, not an ABP file!

How do I get aCar on the new phone to access Drive and look for an ABP file?

Thanks.

Make sure that you use the Full Restore option, not the Import from aCar CSV option.

Nope. That can access only a file already on the new phone. The FAQ says that acar cannot access the cloud to restore. What's the point of letting us backup to the cloud?

Sorry, I misinterpreted what you were saying.

Please connect your phone to a computer via USB cable. Copy the backup file from Google Drive to the zonewalker-acar folder in your phone's internal memory. Then, do the restore.
