OK, success. I waited and waited for the new Nexus 6 to get the OTA update to Android 7 Nougat to match my older Nexus 6. With both phones on the same version of Android, I factory reset the new Nexus 6 and used Tap and Go successfully. I had to initiate the transfer three of four times but...

I want to bring my data such as wifi networks and passwords, particular my home screen layouts, and app data. I think your suggestion shall allow to replicate my app presence, but I really want to go beyond that. I am sure I am good with my contacts.

Yes, I just double-checked the automatic restore is enabled. It appears to me not a single non-Google app is present on the phone. It does not appear any app automatically downloaded. I did see a message that eventually 34 apps were updated, but these all appear to have been present on the...

I just upgraded to Android 7.1.1 on my original Nexus 6. Not sure if this is meaningful to my question. I am now having trouble moving to a new Nexus 6 that is out of the box with Android 6.x.x, from this original Nexus 6. The original phone reports that it has synced apps and other items...

I cannot find a settings dashboard in my browser for Android. Can you be more specific where to find this? I can only find an Android Device Manager that let's me ring, erase or lock my phone. (Edit: Found it - not easy.) https://myaccount.google.com/dashboard

I've turned the original N6 off, but that does not seem to help. 1) Tap and Go does nothing 2) Signing in with my Google account on the new phone does nothing in terms of restoring anything. I can go into the PlayStore and see a list of my apps though.

I have a perfectly working Nexus 6 32GB with 7.x. I have brand new Nexus 6 64GB. When I got the first Nexus 6 via Tap & Go I was able to move everything over from my old Android phone. I've tried that with these two phones, and also tried syncing the new phone with Google, and nothing has...

I have been having this same problem with my Nexus 6 for months.

The duplicates I find have nothing in them, just the name, and when I select them they ask if I'd like to add them to a contact.

I looked in my Google account under contacts area on my Gmail page. There is only one entry in Contacts for this person. There are four phone numbers in that contact record, but I cannot discern if the four results I am seeing on the Nexus 6 are related to those four numbers or something else...

I've done this. When I browse I only see one contact match. When I search, I see four. I only have my Google account active to display.

1) On non-Nexus phones I have had, I believe when I entered the contacts are of the phone app, I could access full contact info, i.e.: email and street addresses and notes. I do not seem to be able to do this with the default Nexus 6 app Am I missing something? 2) Also, when I go hunt...

This is driving me crazy. There is no unread message count presented on the SMS Messenger Icon, nor have I obtained that function with a third party SMS App such as Textra. I am missing timely SMS messages, as I have come to rely on this logical feature on many of my pre-Nexus 6 phones. I...

Zooper empty icon worked great. Wanted to keep the stock launcher because I understand the new Tap N Go new phone set up can pull your screen set ups (icon configuration, home screens, folders, etc.) from a source phone, and I am hoping the standard Android back up via Google does the same...
