Your game data stays in your phone. It doesn't work like iTunes where it deletes apps when you remove it on either device. Zune only syncs your media collection, not game data.
So do you mean like you get the games for free?
Zune does nothing with your games. It just syncs media - and no game data. That means that you will lose all your (sideloaded) games/apps, including your game progress, after flashing a new ROM.
But after a "normal" update by Zune everything should be the same.
To add to what was already said, all purchased games will be linked to your account, so if, for example, you lose your phone or flash it, as long as you link it back to your original Live ID, you will be able to re-download previous app purchases for free. Game data is not saved, other than the achievements for XBL titles that will be forever linked to your Live ID.

Hi all.
I've been enjoying the Assassin's Creed game trial over the past few weeks and decided to purchase the full game over the Zune client.
However I can't seem to get it onto my phone - each time I launch the game it tells me I am still using the trial. There is only tile for it in the Xbox LIVE hub, and I have tried restarting my phone and connecting it to my PC, with apparently no change. I've also checked in my updates list and the game isn't listed there.
Totally baffled, any suggestions?
Did you already try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it from the MarketPlace. You won't be charged twice; the MarketPlace will recognize you already bought the game.
Cheers Stingray, that seems to have worked!
Do you know if this is a common problem?

The Marketplace in its current form has several bugs, some related to the Trial mode. One of the most prominent ones being that you (often) cannot update an application that you have installed in trial mode. The update process seems to work just fine, but the update never actually gets installed and Marketplace will keep telling you there's an update.
As for your particular issue, I haven't experienced that one myself. But when things go wrong you can often solve it by uninstalling/reinstalling the app. The only disadvantage of this solution is that you probably lose your application's settings or some in-app data (save games, downloads, in-app purchases, etc.).
By the way, this isn't a Windows Phone specific solution. Works for iPhone/iPad/Android too
Also Microsoft has promised to fix some MarketPlace bugs in the coming January/February update.
Hi,
I'm having this strange issue with Asphalt 8 where every time I open up the app, after being automatically logged in to Google+ (I have not logged in to Facebook) I am presented with a screen to pick between the cloud data or the local data.
My game progress is more advanced in the local data so I pick that. Then I'm asked if I want to continue as my cloud data will be overwritten, I pick yes. But if I restart the game, I'm presented with the same screen all over again, the cloud data is not being reset. This is preventing me from backing up my data to the cloud and continue my game progress in other devices.
Anyone had a similar issue? How can I solve this?
Anyone, please? Gameloft doesn't answer my support request, even though I paid for the game before it became free...
This is getting on my nerves :/

Seeing this as well on a nexus 10 running Omni. Also payed for the game before it became free. Anybody asked Google yet?
Maybe if they deleted the data relating to the game when we revoke authorisation to the app the issue wouldn't be there?
We can change to local data
We can sole it. just uninstall and play new game and change to local data
Okay, so this device has given me it's fair share of weird play store fails -9XX errors.. I've had to jump through amazing hoops to just make Play Music work a few times, it ends up telling me that I don't have enough storage available on a 64gigs device, cm'onnnn, perhaps is has something to do with Play suddenly saying all my damn tracks in the cloud has a lengh of "Infinite", that's just ridiculous. I have never had all of these issues before on my tablets or previous phones. So what is up? The newest one is Google Drive and Facebook crashing like a boss, even when they "try" to run in the background. Then I uninstalled Facebook and I got Play Store error -24, I cleared everything, deleted Facebook app and rebooted, then it installed. Facebook went back to just bootlooping and crashing all over the fcking place. I'ma show you a video:

Check it out, if you have any solution to this, please let me know. I can live without it, it's just that.. It's amazing how many issues I've had with Play Store and Services on this device. I always use CM.. I always flash this ****.. I've never seen these issues flooding my device before.

Hello guys, I have some questions about data generating and mainly modifying Google Play billing information, hope I can find answers here...
1. Each time I open Titanium Backup or Google Play has some update on apps, my external SD Card will generate 2 folders which are "data\com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup" and "Android\data", the second one will have some system apps folders inside suck as "com.android.gallery3d" and "com.google.android.apps.maps". I rooted my G3 and use ES file explorer to manage my files. But I didn't experience such issues in my previous Galaxy Note, which means those apps or system won't generate any app data on external SD Card. Most importantly those app folders (13+ folders) are empty and all 0.00 KB!
It is somehow annoying and I can't ignore it so each time I access my external SD card I will have to delete them manually. I wonder what is the problem and how can I tweat the system so that it won't generate it in SD card again, internal storage folder already contained all those app data folders!
2. It's about Modded Google Play Store. If you guys know the creater of Lucky Patcher also created the modded version of Google Play Store, and I found on the internet that there are a method which almost make you buy paid apps for "free". The website is in below:
http://www.8apk.net/2015/01/modded-google-play-store-download-install-chelpus.html
I wonder if this method is true... If it is then I think it would be chaos and Google will surely patch it... Because it makes you really get paid apps for free, imagine you paid for the app, save it and refund to take back the money, while you didn't really return the "product" you bought... That would be awesome if it can be done but I don't have the time to try all that... Is there anyone who are currently using this trick and it works?
3. Alright recently I have been paying attention on how to crack in-app purchases... I wonder if Freedom and Lucky Patcher works on server-based online games? For example One piece Treasure Cruise and Puzzle and Dragons if you guys heard of it, they require 100 yen to buy 1 magic stone or Gems and 5 stones to play a lucky draw to get a new character. Well although I think it has a very little chance to hack or crack it, maybe the two cracking apps won't work too, but I still have some faith on it which I think it may be possible...
I wonder why it works on Candy Crush or something like that, but won't (maybe) work on the 2 games I mentioned? Aren't they are using the same mechanism in Google Play billing? (Press purchase, connect to Google Play, a Pop-up displaying what you are going to buy, press buy and enter billing information, then complete purchase.) If they are the same then why we can't crack it?
4. I found here:
http://gameguardian.net/forum/topic/6279-another-in-app-purchase-hack-method/
That by using Lucky Patcher to "Patch to Android" and tick on "Signature Verification status always True" and then tap on "Apply" then reboot, and it will change how Google Play's status, that means the cracked apps you installed will also be regonized as purchased apps in Google Play and you got it legally. I wonder if this is true and is it still working?
And by doing that signature verification, can I skip the process of using luck patcher to patch Titanium Backup every time I update it from Play Store? This is a little bit annoying actually...
That's all of my questions, sorry for the long words but I really hope to get the answers... If it can't be done then I want to know because it has been consuming my time trying to find the answers... Thanks a lot in advance, hope you all have a good day!
Let me start by saying that I do not have a Google + account and I don't want one.
I have been holding off on signing up for Google Play Games until they updated to remove this restriction.
With the 3.7.20 update this finally happened !
The main reason I wanted Google Play Games was to be able to have game saves synced to all my devices via the cloud.
So I went ahead and installed 3.7.20 on all my devices and signed up.
Then I went into my favorite game : Toy Blast
Observations made :
1.) I was on level 693 on my Nexus 9 when I 1st started the game with my new Google Play Games profile.
2.) I loaded up the achievements and it didn't recognize any of my progress in the game so I didn't have ANY achievements (IE: Completed Level x)
3.) I went back and replayed certain levels on my Nexus 9 (Android N Preview 2) to attain 13 achievements. I also advanced to Level 695.
4.) The next morning I installed Toy Blast on my Nexus 5 (Marshmallow - March Security update) looking forward to being able to continue my progress. I installed and loaded up the game and it didn't recognize ANY IN GAME PROGRESS so it would only let me start at Level 1 !!! But it showed my 13 achievements @#$%#[email protected]%
I couldn't find any options to force the game save to sync and am not sure how to proceed.
Anyone else familiar with this issue and can offer some advice ?
Im having a issue myself, its asking me when i want sync my account in some games i click that , then i get a window asking me to create a user id ? like its not recognizing my old lvl 28 play games account and asking me to create one? i did that and now my name random changed and avatar.. my google+ picture is gone but the lvl is same if i go to play games app.. so i guess somethings up now...
