Android BackupManager Full data backup does not have consent

Question

I was testing auto backup using bmgr and couldn't get it to work.

I've got allowBackup="true" in the manifest and of course it's enabled on the device.

Does anyone know what INELIGIBLE_DOLLY_CONSENT is?

Answer 1

Had the same problem (Transport rejected package because it wasn't able to process it at the time when executing adb shell bmgr backupnow com.myapp and INELIGIBLE_DOLLY_CONSENT in logcat).

Solved it just by disabling and re-enabling backup in the phone settings.

Answer 2

I got it to work after re-adding my Google account:

1. Go to Settings and choose Accounts;
2. Tap on the Google account;
3. Click on the three dots icon;
4. Tap on Remove Account.

After that, click on Add Account to add your Google account back.
