Wow yes you are right, I have it turned on in photos just like you.
Like you when I go to backup it checks and reports off, then I find it off in photos and have to turn it back on?
I think it only turns off as a result of looking in settings as I have never found it off before?
BTW, how did you get SMS in your backup? I use an app for that, did not know you could get google to do it? I can't see where to turn it on though.
Google updated the Google Photos app and it's working now.
There is no settings in Android to enable backing up sms. Android just backs them up. But I believe more SMS Backup & Restore or Titanium Backup.

I'm just downloading the update now.
It's odd as I dont have the SMS backup you have in your video, I have all the other entries in backup just the last one missing (sms), I use SMS Backup & Restore
If you have Android 8 and May update then you should see SMS text messages in settings/system/backup.

Did you do factory reset after upgrading to Oreo? If not, this could be the problem. You can do factory reset now(backup all important files, factory reset will wipe your phone). I did it shortly after upgrading to Oreo and it solved some of my problems I had after upgrading.

Might be but I'm not so sure as I updated to Oreo the day it arrived, just updated to 8.1 and it's still the same.
@kudos1uk @freekarol
I was googling it a long time ago and found out that even google pixel users are complaining about SMS backup. SMS backup process is triggered only if the phone is fully charged and does not has any activities for about an hour or so. Therefore, if you will leave the phone connected to charger overnight, there will be a high chance that in the morning you will find out that SMS had been backed-up. However, there is a simple workaround to force backup all in once. You can enable USB debugging, connect phone to PC and type this in cmd shell:
Code:
adb shell
bmgr backupnow --all

If anyone else experience SMS backup not showing in Backup likeme, just turn Backup off and turn it back on and SMS backup magically appears.

To preface,
I'm running an AT&T LG G2 rooted (with a couple of Xposed modules). I'm running 4.2.2
Today, I rebooted my phone after updating some apps from the play store, and then all hell broke loose. Here's a list of what went wrong
1) ALL of my settings were reset. Sound settings, call settings, screen on settings, etc. EVERYTHING.
2) My home button doesn't work. It lights up - it knows I pressed it, but it doesn't send me to the launcher. I have the home button programmed through Nova Launcher to open my voice search when I'm on the home screen - that doesn't work either.
3) My notifications panel stays empty - nothing shows up. On top of that, the little "gear" icon that should take me to settings doesn't work. There's a gear setting above that for sound that DOES work.
4) When I go to "About Phone", my phone name was reset to "G2".
4) Here's the kicker - When I go to "About Phone", the "Software Update" button has disappeared. What the hell happened?
If anybody can solve this issue, I have a small bitcoin prize for you...
Edit: Noticed something new. I went into Titanium Backup and it gave me a notification that my "Device ID" was changed. It states that this commonly occurs after a factory reset or ROM change? Here's the thing - I've never factory resetted my phone or even installed a recovery for that matter.
Notice #2: Volume keys don't respond. Although changing volume manually through the settings does work.
Quick note: I changed a value in settings.db using SQLite manager. I tried changing "tether_entitlement_check_state" to 0. And then I exported the DB and saved it. Would that have caused an issue?
well all hell really did break loose here, have you tried entering download mode and flash back to stock(I'm pretty sure this isn't you want to do) but it might be the only thing to do

Interesting. Thanks for the link. I wonder, other than hiding the "root" flags, how is this different from performing a factory reset? I would be opting to restore 4.2.2, not Kit Kat.

well tis is different to a factory reset as in it makes everything the way it used to be like if you were just powering on your phone for the first time while with a factory reset- if you have lets say deleted bloat and modified anything in the /system or other areas they are gone forever, the factory reset is more like a wipe your phone and start again(sometimes if you are rooted it remains rooted just without the su app)

I'm pretty sure it does but I have always had doubts about that(I usually always wipe with custom recovery so I don't remember when was the last time I used factory reset option, plus I upload a most of my backups into onedrive/goole drive/dropbox) also using the flash to stock method will wipe everything from the phone like I said its like powering it on for the first time just in case you were wondering

Okay, so here's my plan. I'm currently ADB pulling my entire SD card (with the titanium backup contents) onto my laptop. I plan to factory reset (the default android one that's in the settings). If that doesn't work, I will use the other flash-to-stock method.
Once I'm done, I plan to use Titanium backup to restore everything including settings. Here's my question:
When I'm restoring everything, will it be 1-click? In the past when I had other phones, the only time I restored TB was when I flashed different ROMs, so it caused havoc with my settings. Since I'm keeping the stock-ROM software, will I be able to 1-click "Restore" and have everything be how it used to be (Except for the Xposed Modules of course) ?
Also...I really don't like how MTP hides the Titanium Backup folder...

Referring to TB, you can set it to restore your backups with 1 click through "batch mode", but I believe you need to have the paid version.
Anyway, everything's fixed! I actually just put a recovery on it, and then deleted data and cache. That way my internal sd card didn't get wiped.
And I did a little more searching, it seems like modifying the sqlite database when you try to remove AT&T's tethering check causes the weird issue. I wonder if it's a secret backdoor program that makes your phone unusable...

Yesterday I got official M ota on my Moto G 2 Lte (Xt 1078 - Brazil)!
Just updated and everything was ok, no reset was needed.
Some tips:
- Can't activate System Ui Tuner:
In the developer options I turned off animations. Just restored the default option (1x) in all 3 animations, restarted
the device and voila, I could activate the System Ui Tuner (holding the cog icon). After that, disable the animations
again did no mess.
- Igo stopped working:
Just uninstalled and reinstalled the app (without delete the files), and it's working again.
- Greenify stopped showing black screen while hibernating apps (screen flickering):
Needed to give it permission to overlap other apps (in Settings > Applications > Advanced (cog wheel))
- Smart unlocker stopped working:
Works on the "Universal version"
A factory reset is always a good thing when you do a major version update, and reading "Just uninstalled and reinstalled the app (without delete the files???), and it's working again" lead me to think a factory reset should fix all your problems. Sad thing you can't backup your appdata or you will end in the same situation, not sure but mostly possible.

But the only problem I had was the app Smart Unlock that isn't working in 6.0, I found the solution.... everything else is fine.
Factory reset is a last resort, because if I do it my bank app will require an activation in the bank, and I don't want to go there...

Thanks for the advice, but my device isn't rooted and the Helium backup doesn't works for my bank (it has a #@$ seed for code generation, just Titanium can backup it, but I didn't rooted it).

So my first Axon 7 (grey) was working fine and great, however it had vibration problem and a bad charger that came in the box, so I had to send it back.
My 2nd Axon 7(gold) and 3rd one (grey) are both suffering from performance issues and battery drain due to near 100% cpu load all the time. At first i thought it was a hardware issues, so I sent the gold one back. And I am troubleshooting it one the grey one now.
I updated to B27 and also did a factory reset multiple times, but this issue won't go away.
android.process.acore is causing my CPU to stay around 100% all the time. The cuplrits included in this package are
i) Contacts
2) Call log/backup restore
3) ContactsStorage
4) User dictionary
all of these are system apps that are somehow related to contacts syncing. Please help me. I tried all i can and it's driving me nuts. I already returned my Note 7 and this is my third Axon 7 phone after that. I don't know what else to do.
Thanks

Can you help? When I received the phone it was on B20, immediately updated OTA to B27. I am trying to see what I can do. I rooted and installed Xposed just now without unlocking the bootloader.
Will this issue be solved if I reflash the ROM?

Already tried that, but no use.
I had this exact same issue. Tried most of the things on this thread with no luck.
Eventually realized I had almost 4k contacts on my Google Contacts (ton of emails saved in Google Contact). I went to Google Contacts (through Gmail) on a desktop browser & deleted all the contacts that I didnt need (check out the old view for GOogle Contacts - it has a separate list of unused contacts which you delete).
After this, clear your Data on "Contacts Storage" under Apps in Setting. Now re-sync your contacts, and you're good to go. I spent almost 2 days fixing this issue. But all good now.

I was going to try this eventually. Though I have only around 600 contacts.
have problem with contacts too on Axon 7, my contact is added with name and surname, but when this person call to me it display only it's phone number.
The same is in textra sms app, cantacts conversations are showed with phone numbers not person names.
is any way to fix this, on my previously HTC 10 didn't have any similar issues?
Same problem. Some contacts are shown with just a number during calls or textra sms. Must be a bug. Hope they will fix it...
but is any e-mail to ZTE support to let them know about this issue?
I also had same issue. contacts were not syncing properly. i have 1300 contacts. i was just enabling sync for 10-15 minutes then again disabling for 1 minute then did it repetitively . it took me about 36 hours to sync all my contacts. (yes i was on B27).
I see that all my contacts has been synced with gmail, but still on receiving calls and in textra saved contact are presented with their phone number
slowly consider to sell this great phone because of software bugs ;(
Hi,
I am using the Chinese A2017 & having contacts syncing issues with google account as well my office exchange email ID. Can anyone tell a fix?
I am 100% stock, did the update earlier and I now can't get any data (2g, 3g or 4g) wifi is fine but I just can't get any data.
I had data turned off during upgrade and after upgrade I noted it was turned on again, not sure what to do now.

Did you use any 3rd party app for sms backup and restore? I lost my messages too. The only backup I have is 6 months old.
After update to 8.1, Jio Sim is not working on both the slots. Messages wiped out. In Android version it is showing a"prerelease".

Yes lucky for me I was using SMS backup and restore and my last auto backup was a week ago.
Did Xiaomi pull the Trigger? No update for me.
I can't not help you. Just can say I updated yesterday and I'm not experimenting any issue. However you may change the post tittle. My updated was as follows:
Previous:
Set magisk core mode -> Uninstall xposed SDK26 module -> Restore boot.img
Update:
Update -> Patch boot.img with magisk -> Reboot -> Everything fine
After update:
Enable magisk -> Reboot -> Bootloop -> Boot into TWRP and flash magisk uninstaller -> Reboot -> Everything fine -> Boot into TWRP and flash magisk -> Reboot -> Everything fine -> Install xposed SDK27 module and unified hosts adblock -> Reboot -> Everything fine till now
Goods founds after update to 8.1:
Camera lag using magisk solved -> Fixing module not needed anymore
GCam working without enabler module -> Module not needed anymore
Swipe FPS for notifications come back -> Find under settings, gestures
Native dark theme -> Substratum not needed anymore
Also found update is not available for everyone. My mothers one full stock system is not receiving. I attached images with my setup.
Hope my info is useful for someone.

Don't think you have much of an option.
The only thing you could check is to see if google is backing up your sms's
See here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/help/google-photos-backup-off-t3810065
Some A1's are backing up as part of Google's backup..... but....... you can't manually restore the backup, the only way would be to reset the phone and let it pull the SMS's down as part of the setup. Or maybe if you have a spare phone you could restore it with the A1's google backup, then use SMS Backup & Restore app to make a backup, then push the backup to the A1 (long winded but would work).
If your phone is backing up SMS's you would also need to check when the last backup was, if it has backed up since the update your backup might be replaced with what is on your phone..... ie nothing.

I wiped my phone and installed a new rom for a couple hours, received one text during that time. Then I wiped again, installed a fresh AICP rom, and let Google Setup restore my most recent backup from the cloud. It only restored the one message, and I lost a couple years worth of messages.
Is there a way to restore my messages from the cloud backup, to a certain point-in-time?
Thanks!

If you go back to stock and restore that backup you should get all your messages. I had the same issue on ROMs that sms was not restoring. Even though Google does a pretty descent job backing up I use sms backup and restore also. It's free and can backup anywhere (google drive,device,email etc.) That way you never have to worry again.
