How far can you change your model to a cheap smartphone and transfer your data?(Android → Android)

　Since 2016, the number of cheap SIMs of MVNOs (virtual mobile telecommunications carriers), which borrows a major carrier communication network and provides mobile lines at a low price, has increased.

　Since the specifications of the cheap smartphone provided by MVNOs have risen, the number of people who are considering MVNO's cheap smartphones to be cheaply cheaper has increased.

　However, when making a cheap smartphone, it is not clear whether it can be transferred properly, such as data and settings, and I think that some people are stopping.

　This time, I purchased Rakuten Mobile's "HUAWEI HONOR 8", so I tried to see how much data I could move myself under the condition that I did not use a PC.

The basics are Google genuine "Android backup"

　The most basic backup is the "Android backup" that attaches to the Google account.

　If you log in to the Android smartphone with a Google account, it will be automatically backed up by enabling "backup and reset" from the settings.Basically, the initial settings are enabled, so you don't have to do that much consciously.

　Just enable this setting, you can inherit many of the various basic settings of the terminal, such as Google Calendar settings and Wi-Fi access points settings, to the migrated terminal.

　When you set up a new device, you will be asked if you log in with a Google account to take over the backup data. Select "Copy" and restore the data.

Copy SMS, call history, and photo data with "JS backup"

　Basic data can be migrated by Android backup, but with the "JS backup" app, SMS / MMS and call history can also be shifted to new terminals.Also, the most personal and important thing in the smartphone data is photos and videos, but these can also be backed up and restored by JS backup.

　JS backup can save backup data on SD memory card or cloud storage (such as "Google Drive" "Dropbox"), and can migrate data between models even if you do not have a PC (backup using PCs.increase).

　This time, the migration source Nexus 5X was a model without an SD memory card slot, so I backed up a Google drive that can be used 15GB even for a free plan in a cloud storage.

　Restore the data from Google Drive with the JS backup installed in the migration destination Honor 8.

　When the restoration is completed, a button will be advanced to the restoration of the application, but I did not use it this time because the application has already been installed in Android backup.

The setting of important apps such as LINE individually is taken over

　There are limits to Android backups and JS backups, and many app settings and authentication information cannot be migrated.So, if you have important data such as LINE, set the takeover setting provided in the app individually.
