Re-installing a Gameloft Game - how to save my savegame - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

So I started playing Eternal Legacy and keep having an issue where the game freezes towards the end of a battle in the area by the mines. Sometimes I can get through 1 battle only to have it freeze after another. Anyone have this issue?
Gameloft sent me a link to redownload and re-install the game and said to delete the old one. But does anyone know how to save my savegame files so I don't have to start the game all over again? I searched the GloftELHD folder but didn't find any files that looked like a save game.

Most gameloft games store their saved games on memory card e.g. Asphalt 6 (profile.sav) and modern combat 2 (save.bin), and some save it in phone memory as application data (Dungeon Hunter 2)
If you can't find any save game file in Eternal Legacy folder, try saving the application data by Titanium Backup

Of course there is nothing in that folder even remotely called "save" so thats out. Titanium backup works without Root? My device is stock.

No backup currently gives back up app-data without root. You might be able to copy the data out with ADB if you can isolate what file it is, even without root.

Yeah copying the file out isn't a big deal I can do it through windows explorer. The problem is there is no way to identify which file it is. I would just backup the whole thing but that would defeat the purpose of re-installing the game then. I'm not even convinced re-installing the game will fix my freezing problem.

Have you tried GameLoft Support? Asking on the forum where the save-game data is for that particular game? If it is on the phone itself, gotta get it with ADB, if it is on the SD-card, then you can copy off SD-card to another spot.... If you can't find that info, then I don't know what to tell you. I have that game but haven't started it yet (got it as a freebie 2-for-1 deal). So I wouldn't mind knowing too. I honestly wish they published at least a little bit of detail on this stuff, but they are used to supporting iOS devices, where normal users can't get into this nitty-gritty stuff to poke at it.

I actually have tried Gameloft Support themselves, and the guy from Gameloft basically told me he didn't know either.
I'm not sure but you can try follow steps, i think you can get back saved data after uninstalling game:
1. Plug you device with USB cable and open the "Removable disc F (or N or G,J the name could vary)" then open "Gameloft" folder.
2. You will see the "games" folder.
3. Pick up the game you need.
4. Then you will see the whole game data.

The other games do have a savegame file, but this one nothing is marked savegame.
That said not even sure I'm gonna re-install just yet so this may all be moot, just swapped in a Sandisk Class 4 32 gb card and now everything seems to be working better.

Hmmm.. So may just have been a hardware glitch with read-times or such odd? One can only hope as much. It is a shame that GameLoft's support isn't better. Considering that their games (even if often buggy) are generally some of the better ones out there (even if generally ripped from other popular games on other platforms).

I think it may be, I played for about an hour last night and no problems (plus the class 4 Sandisk runs WAY smoother than the 16gb Class 2 card I had). I almost laughed when I got that email, it seems like such a simple question but the fact he straight out told me "I don't know", I've never gotten something like that from tech support before. Another thing I did was reduce my max text messages per thread to 50 and delete a lot of old stuff (probably about 1000+ texts), that has helped with the phone's sluggishness, and I would bet helped the game as well. I would assume Android prioritizes that task and so it can affect other apps.
I've found that their games are a mixed bag. Eternal Legacy is stunning, graphics are unbelievable for a phone, everything works well, but then I get these freeze ups, and worse if you pause the game to answer a call or check an email/text message, it shuts down! MC2 is really stunning as well, but 50% of the time if you go into the control menu the game force closes, and we have had 1000 threads on the targeting with the right stick. Assassins Creed has decent graphics, great controls and play style, but TONS of graphical glitches, and a pretty cheesy story that completely ignores a huge plot point of the Assassins Creed games aside from a passing reference to animus and memories in the menus.

help me about this too?

that's help me too and work thank you for all ^_^

Moving Gameloft Game data to External SD

If you have more than one Gameloft game (which is easy when they are buy one get one at $2.99), you've probably run into the problem of not having enough space on your tiny 8GB internal SD. I personally have been fighting with ~200mbs free for the past few weeks and its been annoying me, so I decided I wanted to "fix" the problem, at least till Gameloft gets together and adds an option of where to download the app data.
My first idea was some sort of syslink or bind mount at boot between the Internal and External SD, but while I was researching this I ran into this "convertor" which modifies the apk file to install the game data to the external SD card.
Create the folder called GL on your external SD and the game data from your main folder (sdcard/gameloft/games) copy to "external SD/Gl"
Click to expand...

I am still looking for a better solution that doesnt require EVERY apk to be modified, so if you good w/ scripts or can think of a way similar to my original idea, please let me know.
Check it out and leave your feedback

EDIT: Confirmed working on NOVA 2 and Shadow Guardian. You MUST copy all the game data to /_ExternalSD/GL/ (make sure to remove the "games" folder if it's there, all the data needs to be in the "GL" folder. Also, confirmed it only works on games purchased from Gameloft's website, not the Android market versions.
This is how your GL folder should look on your External SD if you run ls in terminal:
ls /sdcard/_ExternalSD/GL:
GloftN2HP
asphalt6
GloftBPHM
GloftSGHP
nova
May God bless the fruit of your loins with prosperity and well being from now till his return. Bless you!
works great... except with Starfront.
EDIT: looks like starfront works.. just needed wifi to verify the files
Damn, what the hell are the people who buy the Sensation going to do when they only have a measly 1GB for appdata?
having a hard time downloading that file. It isnt working for me. I need this
People w/ the sensation are screwed and r gonna need to create scripts to move stuff SD. I successfully patched all 4 of my Gameloft games and they are working fine. Just make sure you put them in the right folder (see OP). No issues downloading the one-click patcher, but I'll see if I can get another link.
Despite this working well, Id still like to figure out a way to syslink or bind mount the gameloft folders on Internal and external sd.
EDIT: Posted mirror link in OP. Enjoy!
I did this and it worked perfectly (thanks btw!!) but all my saved game data and progress is gone this is for Dungeon Hunter 2 HD
guys - im having a problem with Data but not sure if its different - any time i download the gameloft data via wifi to my 32GB SDCard - the game crashes after the gameloft logo and asks to download the data when you restart (even if the data is already there)

Im not really sure where the save games are stored for Gameloft games. Glad to hear it works, but please let me know if you resolve this issue.

I would double-check that the folders are set up properly. it is case sensitive, so be careful. I layout exactly how the folders should be arranged in the OP. Another thing u can check is have it download SOME of the game data, and go and find it. It may help you track down the issue, (like folders arrange incorrectly). Hope that helps!
i tried to launch the program but it crashes after loading.. this is so frustrating.. i feel like going back to HTC (never had this level of problems)

This has nothing to do w/ the manufacturer of your phone. We are essentially "hacking" these games to trick it into using the external SD. You would have this exact same issue, on say, the newly releases HTC Sensation (if not worse because of the lack of space on the Internal SD). Also, I just want to point out that I doubt this will work on "cracked" apks for Gameloft, so those may cause crashes as well.
Im not very fond of hacking each APK to work, as it will eventually cause issues, and this would best be solved by syslinking or bind mounting the two folders between the internal and external SD card. Unfortunately, I dont have enough background knowledge to write the script from scratch, as it requires some kernel modification, and would have to be unique to each phone.
cm7 by default installs your games to the sdcard, but if you want your games to install on internal storage i have attached a config file that goes in /system/etc make sure to back up old one first, ps i dont know the site i got the infop off of and the re done config file it isnt my work im just letting people know here ill post in a second post since its on my phone and im using a computer

Do you have any strange side effects from using it? Did it require any modification to the files from the other thread to be used on the G2x?
I'm using trinity kernel and it was just a matter of changing fstab so no

Hmm, Ill have to give it a shot?
EDIT: This DOESNT work when using the files from the other thread, as it mentions its specifically for the i9003. Tried it and both SD cards cant be seen. It may need to be modified, as I looked at both files and they are completely different.
Its basically the reverse ill post the fstab file when I get home the 1 for external storage it wont let me attach from my phone so got to wait till I get home

Okay, I used the changed from the Samsung version and modified our vold.fstab to mount the partitions properly. Give the attached vold.fstab file a shot and see if it works. Seems to work for me Please post your feedback.
Backup your original vold.fstab file (its in /system/etc).
ADB push this file to /system/etc after mounting it as R/W (u can do it in terminal but I use the app Remount)
Reboot
Check SD "layout" in Settings
EDIT: Seems you cant mount either SD card as MASS storage after switching files :/. Anyone w/ experience feel like chiming in?

[Q] Application sync across devices

So I believe this is the right place to post this.
I'm looking for an app that can save/sync games across devices. I lost my one phone and I had purchased some credits to support the game and when I lost is I lost all of the credits and I am playing a long RPG but there are times when I wish I could play it on my tablet instead of on my phone, but i dont want to play through it twice at the same time.
Does anyone know if there is an app that will allow me to back up and sync my application information across devices using something like drop box?
Titanium Backup does exactly that.
how does one do that, I'm trying to get a copy of spectral souls from my transformer over to my nexus S 4g, so i can be slightly more mobile and play?
I'm sure there is a more elegant way, but what I did to transfer my Battleheart save game to the phone was copy the TB properties and tar files for Battleheart from my Tab to my phone, then rename them so the filenames matched the phone app data filenames and replaced the phone's ones with them. I did this because both devices are currently in use, obviously between new devices you can just use TB like normal to restore the apps+data. Wouldn't be something I'd like to do a lot, I'm sure there must be a more elegant solution (probably TB does it natively and I just didn't see it...).

[Q] Modifying difficulty in ongoing GOF2 THD game

Sorry if this is off-topic but I'd really like to know if there's a way to do this.
I recently finished the Galaxy on Fire 2 storyline on easy and wanted to replay it on the hard setting (yes, I think it is THAT good )
So I started the game and in between I reflashed the newest version of Prime, having previously backed all up with TB.
Sadly (I have no clue why) TB failed on me and the folder was empty, fortunately I had also backed up the Android data folder on the internal SD where the GOF2 save files were so I copied them back... to my surprise the game saves were on the easy setting again!!!
So here's the question, does anyone know of a way to modifying the save files to set the game to hard without starting all over?
Thanks

will titanium backup work for larger games like gta3?

Hello I'm upgrading to the TF Prime soon, and I wanted to transfer some of my game saves from gta3, mc3, and gof2 over to my new tablet, since there is additional app data will titanium backup still work?
as long as you back up app+ data you should be fine if not jsut copy over the gta3 data should be located at /android/data/com.rockstar.gta3
it will not copy the game data but the install file, for games that require additional downloaded data, that data will need to be downloaded again, my experience is with gta3 and need for speed hot pursuit, which sucks because while nfshp worked previous, it now will not re download the game data, and many users are complaining in the comments, and it did work before now i can't finish my game

ya pretty much what i said you need to back up the app data from /android/data/
My data folder never got wiped out deleted, it still makes me download the data every time..but once it does it remembers my previous game save..go figure. I never have been able to just reinstall and play them..im sure you can, but the apk file that titanium backup saves is the install apk, not the launcher that actually launches the game..if you can figure out which file that is and save it it may work..i noticed there is a file called download.something or other created when you run the nfshp apk that titanium saves, i read somewhere that someone cracked the game for pirating and you have to delete this file and do some other stuff to install it without it prompting for download data..could be game specific but gta3 also made me dl the extra data sooooo i assume the work around method will be similar.
TB hasa setting to try and get the sdcard data; idk how well it works

New Phone - Backing up Subway surfers

I have a high score in Subway Surfers, I've also played counless hours, so I've wracked up a lot of coins and unlocked a lot of items. I have the galaxy note 2 for tmobile and it broke. It doesnt charge any more and they are sending me a new phone. I want to back up my data so i don't lose all my progress in subway surfers.
I was looking at the hack and how it has you replace the files in the com.kiloo.subwaysurf folder with modified text files to give unlimited coins etc... I tried copying my 3 data files to the ext sdcard so I could put them on my new phone, but when I looked at the files in a text editor, they were out of date and contained 1 month on scores, etc. So i figured they weren't being used in the operation of the game. I deleted the 3 data files in that folder, turned the game on, and sure enough, deleting those files had no affect. I tried replacing them with the hacked files people are using to cheat, and sure enough, nothing happened. So if the 3 files in my com.kiloo.subwaysurf aren't actually being using to store my Subway Surfer data, then where exactly is it being stored so I can back it up?
Please help.
Thanks.
The free version of Titanium Backup can back up an app + data. Did that not work (is the data not being backed up, too ?) ?
When I went to market, it said Titanium Backup Pro free or paid, requires root. I am not rooted.
Ah, if you're already getting a replacement it might be worth it to root to be able to get your data off. You might need root to see the correct files, but maybe someone knows a way for this specific game.

Rooting will cause me to loose my warranty. my phone has already broken after only having it 2 months. It wouldnt make sense for me to lose my warranty over a video game. I'm sure there has to be a way to back up my data without rooting.

would an app like app to zip do the same? i have all my data on another phone and upgraded to the sIII and now my old pphone don't have service of course. but it does have app2zip for some weird reason.
I am having the same problem. I have lots of coins and items in Subway Surfer on my old Samsung Epic 4g. I just got a new Samsung Galaxy S4 on Verizon. Both of my phones are not rooted. I am reading up on it and will probably end up rooting my new S4 and would root my Epic if I needed to. I have a further problem in that the micro USB port on my Epic is broken. I have tried Carbon back up but it doesn't seem to be compatible with my Epic. Even if it was It says it requires a PC which I assume I would involve using the micro USB port which is broken.
I figure the backup programs copy files from the old phone to the new phone. I have tried to do this several times myself with no luck. I have found 3 folders to copy they all seem to be named com.kiloo.subwaysurf. The first 2 one on the SD card. One is in Android/Data and one is in .VungleCacheDir. The third is on the phone under /mnt/asec. I copied them all and tried to replace those files in those places on the new phone. The first 2 copied fine. The third was wierd because the /mnt/asec folder on my S4 was empty. I tried to place the com.kiloo.subwaysurf file from my old phone in that folder but my file manager wouldn't let me. I tried doing it with Astro, jumble file manager, and a third file manager and none of them let me. That leads me to believe there is some permission issue. I am assuming rooting would allow me to copy this file but I don't know that even if I did this strategy would work. Does anyone know if it would work or not? If so how do I make it work?
Is there a back up app that would allow me to copy this app and the app data over to my new phone using the SD card or bluetooth? Is there a version of Carbon back up that is compatible? Even if there is can I use it without a working micro USB port?
Does Titanium backup require a working micro USB port? If it does I can try and root my Epic without using the micro usb port which I haven't read enough yet to see if it is possible.
My third option is trying to fix the micro usb port on the Epic. I have kept my epic alive this far by using replacement parts from another Epic. I also used that other epic as a battery charger. The last time I took it apart it looked like of the 8 or so pins connecting the micro USB plug to the motherboard of the phone 2 were broken off. I tried to bend them back down and I thought I had fixed it but I guess not. Any advice on fixing the port would be helpful.

Would mybackuppro work to restore the an app AND that apps data? like the OP (and me) want to do with Subway Surfer? I downloaded the trial version of mybackuppro and it backed up Subway Surfer but it says I need the pro version to restore it on a different device. I don't mind buying the pro version but I would like to know if it would serve my purpose first. I am desperately trying to transfer all of my Subway Surfer winnings onto my new phone. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
Carbon back up doesn't seem to be compatible with my old phone (epic 4g) and likely requires a working micro SD port, which my epic lacks.

If you connect Subway Surfers to a Facebook account it will bring your high score to your new phone. Mine did at least. I made a separate facebook account just for the occasion. I haven't figured out how to bring my coins and items with me yet though. good luck.
Subway Surfers restore on Galaxy Note 3 (VzW)
Got my new Verizon Galaxy Note 3. Its not rooted, although I hear a method is now available. I've tried everything under the sun to try and get a restored copy of Subway surfers to work. I have a rooted Motorola Driod Bionic. So Subway surfers is backed up there. I have a rooted Google Nexus 10 tablet, I can use TBpro to restore SS on the nexus device. Ive tried just about every highly rated back/restore app that is free from the marketplace. None of them restore the data. I've tried going and installing older SS apk files, and using my saved userpref, onlinestatus, etc etc. But that doesnt appear to work either.
I've installed hacked apk that gives you everything, and since SS links with FB you can get your Highscore. But whenever a new SS update comes out, you wont get it, because there are no marketplace links.
Anybody have luck using any application/scheme to save/restore SS user/profile data on a non-rooted android device?
Helium worked for me .
I first made a backup of data to my external SD card. I then restored the data from the sd card on the same phone to verify that the process was successful ( cuz once or twice the backups appeared to be successful but there were some errors when I attempted to restore).
I then installed helium on the new phone. Using file explorer go to the carbon folder. in that make a folder com.kiloo.subwaysurf. Then send the backup files from carbon folder of ur old phone to ur new phone.
Next, open helium . restore >restore from external/ internal sd card, select subway surfers and you're done!

Tired this on my nexus 10 tablet. But helium would not even retire what it backed up. My nexus is rooted so I tried backing up with and without root allowed for helium. All restores using helium onto the same device failed. That was my hope. To get a restore that worked. Then using those backednuo files. Didn't work, but wasn't a surprise since it never worked even on the original device.
Just chiming in here. I used titanium pro to back up subway surfers and it did absolutely jack. also logging into facebook only brings me my high score back. nothing else.
You backed up on what device? You restored onto. Rooted Note 3?
Lost my data

Got my new Verizon Galaxy Note 3. Its not rooted, although I hear a method is now available. I've tried everything under the sun to try and get a restored copy of Subway surfers to work. I have a rooted Motorola Driod Bionic. So Subway surfers is backed up there. I have a rooted Google Nexus 10 tablet, I can use TBpro to restore SS on the nexus device. Ive tried just about every highly rated back/restore app that is free from the marketplace. None of them restore the data. I've tried going and installing older SS apk files, and using my saved userpref, onlinestatus, etc etc. But that doesnt appear to work either.
I've installed hacked apk that gives you everything, and since SS links with FB you can get your Highscore. But whenever a new SS update comes out, you wont get it, because there are no marketplace links.
Anybody have luck using any application/scheme to save/restore SS user/profile data on a non-rooted android device?

Hi jetguat, can you please share the hacked apk. I am unable to download it from the usual links. I lost my data from my previous phone as I assumed that google will save the data for all applications that I have installed. Now I hope to recover more than just my best score. thanks

If the hack includes hacks of in app purchases or coins, then it can be posted onto xda. In fact, it can not even be discussed on xda, as it is considered warez.
Since there are no details of the hack, the discussion can continue, but please do not post or discuss warez.
Thanks!

Hi JustMPM,
I am trying to locate the one where the data for the player stats are retained and can be backedd up without root. A fresh install does not clear them out. No warez are expected.
Thanks
get a computer and this job will be done

I have a high score in Subway Surfers, I've also played counless hours, so I've wracked up a lot of coins and unlocked a lot of items. I have the galaxy note 2 for tmobile and it broke. It doesnt charge any more and they are sending me a new phone. I want to back up my data so i don't lose all my progress in subway surfers.
I was looking at the hack and how it has you replace the files in the com.kiloo.subwaysurf folder with modified text files to give unlimited coins etc... I tried copying my 3 data files to the ext sdcard so I could put them on my new phone, but when I looked at the files in a text editor, they were out of date and contained 1 month on scores, etc. So i figured they weren't being used in the operation of the game. I deleted the 3 data files in that folder, turned the game on, and sure enough, deleting those files had no affect. I tried replacing them with the hacked files people are using to cheat, and sure enough, nothing happened. So if the 3 files in my com.kiloo.subwaysurf aren't actually being using to store my Subway Surfer data, then where exactly is it being stored so I can back it up?
Please help.
Thanks.

Well, so you are using an android phone. My solution should work for you then since it has a SD card (you have it and it isn't broken right?).
So the thing you need to do is that you have to get a memory card reader to read your SD card on the computer. The next step would be to download a data backup software to collect your entire data. The tool you can use are plenties, some example would be EaseUS, recuva etc.
But personally I will suggest you go with easeus since they are offering some discount right now and most of their products are free. So here is the link to todo backup download. Just follow the instructions. After the data backup is done you just copy it to your new phone's memory card and then everything should be all set.
