Data transferring between two devices can turn out to be a real mess. This is why most users try and avoid it as much as possible. If you wish to transfer data between a Google Nexus and another android device, however, this article guides you takes you through the process.
As Google Nexus itself is an android device, the transferring process can be dealt with rather easily. Following article explains each and every step of the data transfer in detail. To begin, follow these steps:
1. Go to the Google+ app on your Google Nexus. Tap the icon with three dots right next to notifications’ icon and from the drop down menu, select “Settings”.
2. From the screen that opens up, tap on “Auto Backup”.
3. Slide the button on the top right to enable Auto backup. Sit back and relax while your data has been uploaded to your Google account.
Once the backup is complete, all your photos and videos will be in your Google account. You will only need to sign in to your Android device using the same Google account and you will be able to access all those photos and videos.
The contacts on your Google Nexus will be synced to your Gmail account by default. You will only need to sign in to the new Android device using the same Google account to get all these contacts synced to your new Android device.
Similarly, as Google Nexus is an Android device, the calendar will already be synced to your Google account. When you will login to the new device using the same Google account, you will get it back.
If you have been using “Hangouts”, the messaging app by Gmail, you do not need to worry about the messages. When you log in to your new Android device using the Gmail account that you have been using on the Google Nexus, you will automatically get your messages back in your Android device.
Now this method is apparently very simple. All of your data is readily available to you, all you need to do is sign in to the new android device with the Gmail account that has all this data. But you might not have notices that this method does not devise a way by means of which you can transfer your apps or your music for that instance to the new Android device.
To transfer files using Wondershare TunesGo, proceed as follows:
1. Download Wondershare TunesGo from https://tunesgo.wondershare.com . Wait for the download to complete and then install it to your laptop or computer.
2. Connect the Google Nexus and the new Android phone to your laptop with Wondershare TunesGo running. It will detect your devices automatically and you will get a screen as shown below.
3. Use the menu in the center to select the items that you want to transfer. When you are done. Hit “Transfer ”. A menu will appear using which you can track the progress of transfer.
When the transfer is complete, you will be able to access all of the data from your google nexus in your new Android phone.
Notice that while this method is not only easier to implement but it also enables you to transfer all of the data from your Google Nexus including calendar, music and even apps.
1. Do not let either of the devices detach from the computer or laptop during the transferring process. This may result in loss or corruption of data.
2. You can cancel the process at any time by using the “Cancel” button at the bottom right of the transfer window.
3. Notice the “Flip” Button on the main screen. It lets you flip the source and destination devices. For instance, if you flip the devices, you will be able to send data from your new android to your Google Nexus.
