Hi VR-25,

First great tool you have here.

Now I copy the script and did my backup through adb shell (migrator.sh -b app), no errors, I check the tar file, apparently all good.

Went to another phone and still with adb shell (migrator.sh -rad app) and this happens:

Restoring
com.myapp.ex
App
avc: denied { read } for scontext=u:r:system_server:s0 tcontext=u:object_r:system_data_root_file:s0 tclass=file permissive=1
Data
cat: can't open 'com.myapp.ex/runtime-perms.txt': No such file or directory
Reboot & run "migrator.sh -s" to enable apps with Settings.Secure.ANDROID_ID (SSAID)

So the app is restored but the data fails with the runtime perms because when this is executed:

$bkp_runtime_perms && {
sed -n "/$pkg/,/<//p" /data/system/users/0/runtime-permissions.xml
| grep 'granted="true"'
| grep -o 'android.permission.*[A-Z]' > $bkp_dir/$pkg/runtime-perms.txt
}

There is no runtime-permissions.xml (android 11 in a pixel 4) so when you restore:

    for perm in $(cat $pkg/runtime-perms.txt); do
      pm grant $pkg $perm 2>/dev/null
    done
  done < $tmp

The error message is consistent but it affects the restore of the data, by that I mean:

1 - In one of the apps I restored the app opens but no preferences (user data) is restored, is by default - App with no SSAID
2 - On another one (email app) the app dont even open (is killed immediately after being enabled with -s) - APP with SSAID

Hope the above helps.

Same issue for me too in Android 11.

If the new release still has this issue, try after pasting and running the following as root:
cp /data/adb/modules/migrator/migrator.sh /dev/ && sed '\|runtime-perms.txt)|s|)| 2>/dev/null)|' /dev/migrator.sh > /data/adb/modules/migrator/migrator.sh
