I am trying to migrate from my Nexus 9 to this new tablet. I tried all the options and there's no automatic restore kicking in.
I have tried
  • Set up near-by device
  • Just sigining in with my google account and there's no prompt to restore from backup.
  • There's no restore option under google in setting either
Does this tablet not support this basic Android feature.

I was able to use my phone as a "nearby device" and for the most part it figured out my apps and background and installed them all. It did not move pics or videos but that is all on Drive anyways. Make sure both devices are on WiFi, I noticed it won't work on phones when they are on cellular.

That's strange. I did the nearby device and finished the wizard but nothing was trigger on the Mediapad. The wizard finish without installing anything.

At the first try I only got 3 apps of 130+ installed from my previous LG GPad 8.3 tablet. I did a factory reset to try again and no apps got installed at all so I used 'My App List' to download all my apps and set them up manually.
