I've done some messing around with game launcher and game tools as a result of these issues, and I seem to have made the issue worse. While game tools was originally refusing to minimize games, it now won't open at all. It has something to do with the way I have it installed on the phone and game launcher or my games apps "call" it.
What I need is for someone who is rooted and hasn't made any changes to game tools or launcher to share with me exactly where they are located on the phone. I don't know if one, or both, or neither is supposed to be a system app, for example, and switching back and forth while troubleshooting is a major pain. In addition, if it turns out that I do have them located correctly, then there must be something in a config or prefs file that is causing game tools to fail to load, in which case, copies of the game's files would be much appreciated. Then I can just paste them in, in place of my own, and they might get it working again.
Thanks.
Got the same problem.

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...).
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 ^_^
So, after countless hours of searching and trying many ways to install some of my favorite games from my bionic to my tab, I had found 0 luck. (Completely stock tab and phone, Free games just not compatible) I stumbled on something interesting though:
The ES FIle explorer allows you to back up apps on your phones sd card! So, with that said, I did that... plug my phone into my PC, copied the backup file, drag and droped onto my tab, and boom, it worked! No longer do I have to play my games in a foreign language! I have only tried 2, but had success with the game working and I have to head off to work...
The one down side is, the backup is for a phone sized GUI, so I did run into some control problems, but Im sure this could be remedied i *think* by using another compatible tab device, backing it up on that tab, then repeating the process! (IE.., Moto Xoom, w/e 10.1" tab) My wife just so happens to have a xoom, so I shall try it out and report back in a day or two!
Just wanted to share!
The backup isn't for a phone sized gui, the app is. Each app has settings for all the resolutions it supports...
I just got a new tablet and am trying to copy over my save game files from my phone. I can't find them. The dev is called Vector Unit, and I have found a couple directories (e.g.: /storage/emulated/legacy/Android/data/com.vectorunit.purple.googleplay) but there's nothing in them. Yes, I do have root access and am using it.
Does anyone know where these save files are located? I'd certainly appreciate it.

These are in /data/data/<package.of.application> if I'm not wrong
Otherwise, you can use titanium backup; it's easier
Thanks. It looks like you're right but only on my phone, it's not there on my tablet. Different version of BB Racing though, and also using Mashmallow and I think that's screwed with things somewhat. I'll figure it out.
Not comfortable with using Titanium Backup though, it wants way more permissions than I'm willing to give to something closed-source.
Login with Google play games account in the game and it will save your progress in the cloud.

I never had problems with this on previous android phones but I can't seem to install any apk that needs an obb file.
This is my first time using miui so the problem is probably on my side.
I placed the obb in the /android/obb folder (tried both sd and internal) but all apps either have a black screen or try to re-download it.
I tried disabling the miui optimization, enabled "install unknown apps" (you have do that for each source, maybe I missed the correct one?)
That is about everything I could find about it online but it still won't work, I hope someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
It depends on which game you're trying to install. The latest versions of some games initiate a small verification check of file integrity before the game starts, if it fails you get a black screen, if it doesn't fail it forces you to re-download the OBB data.
This is to ensure no modding or cheating in games that have competitive modes or payments.
MIUI optimization has no connection to your problem so make sure you turn it back on and restore all permissions MANUALLY.
Unknown Apps permissions is required only once. (per app). So Chrome will ask once... Allow. Done. File manager will ask once, allow, done. However this has nothing to do with the game... This is only for the apk portion.
If you are able to install the same game with same files on another phone and it works... Then check if permission is granted for the APK for storage access.
Also try an older game or one that isn't popular. If the OBB method works then my theory above is true. If it doesn't work then you'll have to look further for information.
Thanks for explaining so clearly, I'll give it a try tonight.
Do you have an example of an app/game which should surely work?
Give me the name of the game you are trying. I'll do it on my phone. (Provided its not too large.) If it works for me and not for you, then we can troubleshoot further.
I would give you recommendations of some games but I have no idea if they're updated or not... So rather than us guessing, just tell me which app or game you are trying and I'll try and reproduce it.

I have the same problem it's bus simulator ultimate. Here is the link to both apk and obb download. https://apklub.com/download-bus-simulator-ultimate-mod-apk/
