Samsung Account Back up option not working.

Hi,

 

I'm using a Sim free unbranded Samsung Galaxy s7 edge. 

 

My preference when backing up my information / App Data etc is via the phones inbuilt option using my Samsung Account. 

 

For a few days now it's failing showing as a 'Server Error.' 

 

Hopefully if it's a Server Error then this lies with Samsung's end and a bug waiting to be dealt with. 

 

Is anyone else experiencing this issue ? Seems others elsewhere are. 

 

To note I also back up via my Google Account and Dropbox. 

 

It's just annoying when something stops working. :Sad_face:

 

I prefer not to use SmartSwitch to a Computer. 

 

So far I've tried the following troubleshooting. 

 

  • I've tried deleting the Samsung Account off the s7 edge and re set it up with no improvement.
  • Rebooted the phone.
  • Tried backing up both on Wifi and Network Data.
  • Cleared the System Cache.

 

I'd prefer not to Factory Reset at this stage as others have reported this process hasn't helped. 

 

Samsung U.K. Support suggest using SmartSwitch.
