Problems migrating to Xperia 10 III from Xperia XA2 Plus

[rgp]

This is a bug caused by the username change from nemo to defaultuser on new installs since 3.4.0 .
Older installs have their data located on /home/nemo compared to /home/defaultuser on the newer.
When trying to restore the older backups, it fails due to the nonexistance of the former directory.

As directed in the link below, creating a temporary symlink while doing the restore, should enable it to complete successfully:

[3.4.0 onwards?] Restore backup fails when restoring notes (here: from Xperia X to Xperia 10 II )

After some investigation I saw /home/nemo in one of the paths that was being used during the restore of the Notes. Adding a temporary symlink during the restore helped me get Notes restored properly. Add symlink (using developer terminal or via SSH connection) $ devel-su # ln -s /home/defaultuser /home/nemo Run the restore procedure Then I removed the symlink $ devel-su # rm /home/nemo Maybe this helps someone with the same issue as me.
