I just did a reset on the Pixel XL and did the cable copy. I only problem is that it transfers text messages only, doesn't get group or picture messages, so it is kinda worthless to me. I may reset again and do a fresh install, because it also auto downloaded ALL of the apps I had on my 6P. Samsung Smart Sync grabbed picture messages and group messages when you backup and restore with it. Oh well, no big deal, just would have been nice.
