Helium (Free) restore issue

[boardtc]

Hi,

I am setting up a new phone. I used Helium to do some app backups. I stored the resultant folders in Google Drive.

I followed the idea to backup a dummy app first and confirmed it was copied to the Carbon folder.

I copied two of the backup folders to the carbon folder on my new phone using Astro file manager. I can see the backup folder I copied in the folder.

In helium Restore and Sync on my new phone I see the dummy app for restoration and the 2nd copied folder app. The app I really want to restore data for is not showing.

Also, I restored the 2nd app, Yr.No weather app, and none of my previous locations are showing

*Update*

Solution:

• Open the backup directory and check you have the *.ab file
• Run Helium on your computer and connect phone
• Open a command line, go to directory of backup (say in google drive) and type "adb restore your.file.ab"
