In the documentation: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/backup.html#Testing
It recommends testing backup/restore of your application by: 1. installing your app 2. make sure backup/restore is enabled 3. changing some data and calling dataChanged() 4. forcing bmgr to run a backup pass 5. uninstall the app 6. re-install the app and check if your data was restored All seems well until step 4, when I see this in the log: V/BackupManagerService( 306): removePackageParticipantsLocked: uid=10078 #1 V/BackupManagerService( 306): Removing backed-up knowledge of com.example.app And then for step 5: V/BackupManagerService( 306): restoreAtInstall pkg=com.example.app token=21 V/BackupManagerService( 306): No restore set -- skipping restore So apparently backed up data is destroyed when an app is uninstalled, which means the official testing workflow can't possibly work right? What's the best way to test this? Thank in advance -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
