Transfer Wifi settings

Hey everyone,

I'm not able to transfer my saved wifi connections from my old xperia to the XZ1, which previously always worked.

Has anyone a clue?

If you check under your Gmail/Google account, are you syncing everything?

Yes and it works but there are things like Chrome or Google Fit.

Under settings →backup→ device settings it says waiting for backup (never ending)

I have the same problem. I want to transfer wifi networks from Z3 to XZ1 via Xperia transfer, with no success. Is it possible to help me? After factory reset oφ the phone, Xperia transfer was working?

having the same problem, upgrading from an XZ1 to XZ2.

With Transfer Mobile under Apps & Settings, WiFi networks, it is grayed out and says "No Data" even though there are hundreds of networks saved on the XZ1. Does XTM not transfer saved networks anymore under Oreo (8.0)? Unfortuantely, even though Google's own backup supposedly saved the networks, they never were restored from them either on the XZ2.

It is strange.. The only solution till now was the google backup. If this not working anymore, i am afraid that you have to put them again manually. Does anyone understands why the remove usefull features after every update or model?

I'm wondering in my case, with over 400+ (!) saved networks (I travel a fair amount ;)), if I've gone over some limit, either with the Android OS or Xperia Transfer. I know there used to be a ceiling of around 200 networks a few years ago with Android itself, like Lolipop or something.
