Backing up old calls #1050

Open arnaldop opened 3 years ago

arnaldop commented 3 years ago

My calls stopped syncing for some reason.

Whatever the reason is, I would like to back up calls since the last backup (or all, if there was no last backup).

How would I go about doing this?

kurahaupo commented 3 years ago

Doing an incremental "back up everything that's new since the previous backup" is the default, however it's possible to get into a state where the previous backup is recorded with a date in the future, and (unsurprisingly) no messages have arrived or been sent after that date.

This should be fixed by going "clear app data" (from your app manager, not within the app itself), though it will result in everything being backed up when you restart the app afterwards.

(Why your phone would have its system clock set to the future is a different question, but it can happen sometimes.)

@arnaldop Does backing up manually work?
