BackupAgent.onRestore not called when re-install app BUT called for bmgr restore command

I am testing my custom BackupAgent. The below is my test in Simulator & Eclipse ADT

Test 1 backup & restore using command ---- WORK WELL

  1. adb shell bmgr enabled
  2. adb shell bmgr backup app_package
  3. adb shell bmgr run ---------------------- Run backup (BackupAgent.onBackup called)
  4. On the app, I deleted some data
  5. adb shell bmgr restore app_package ------- Restore data from backup
  6. All is restored including some data I deleted on step 4 ------ WORK WELL

Test 2 Backup / uninstall app / re-install app ---- NOT WORK

  1. adb shell bmgr enabled
  2. adb shell bmgr backup app_package
  3. adb shell bmgr run ----------------------Run backup (BackupAgent.onBackup called)
  4. adb uninstall app_package --------------- Uninstall the app after backup
  5. Debug As / Android Application again ---- Application re-installed BUT NO data is restored ( data backup at step 3)

Updated

Anyone has any ideas? Thank you!

very late, but have you tried setting the transport service to local?

adb shell bmgr list transports

prints 

android/com.android.internal.backup.LocalTransport
* com.google.android.gms/.backup.BackupTransportService

change it to the local one

adb shell bmgr transport android/com.android.internal.backup.LocalTransport
