UPDATE 7/15: Try your games again!!!
UPDATE 7/12: I need some help from readers in the Sacramento, California area. If you are in this area and wouldn’t mind, please email me ASAP. familyguyaddicts@gmail.com. THANKS!!
UPDATE 7/11: Morning all… so the “issue” last night was new and isolated quick. Not the same as the other two they’re still trying to track that hit around Mobsters. So most should be right back in.
For everyone else still locked out, please keep posting the answers here if you have not already. To me, the core cause seems possibly related to Android Updates (like within Lollipop and the actual 5.2 update). Will keep working with TinyCo and our readers here to track it til we find the trigger. Thanks so much for your help and answers. I really appreciate it. 🙂
Hey there Tribblemakers!!!
All hands on deck trying to get this Android Crash Issues narrowed and need your help!! I need LOTS of info as fast as possible. Post all your answers here.
First up… If you live in the San Francisco Bay area, have the issue, can take a lil trip (Uber n snacks covered), and want to help PERSONALLY fix the issue… I need you to email me ASAP. AGAIN THIS EMAIL IS ONLY PLAYERS IN SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA. YOU’VE GOT TO BE WITHIN TINYCO’S RANGE. 🙂
familyguyaddicts@gmail.com
Everyone else comment answers to the post below.
This is from TinyCo…
- When did this begin?
- I know some have answered many times, but we see players reporting it right after Mobsters ended, along with some who have been locked out for longer. We are trying to see if this is two different issues.
- What region do they live in?
- State of the US, country if outside the US.
- We find that sometimes, rarely, this is related to a specific carrier or region.
- What carrier do they use?
- ATT, Verizon, just wifi, etc
- Can they log on using their account on a DIFFERENT android device?
- We know logging on iOS fixes it. Does another Android device?
So let’s work together to find out just WHY this is impacting individual Android Users and get it taken care of so we can all get back to having fun!!

Oh TinyCo, you’re so predictable (it is Friday after all!)…
I first encountered Android crashing while loading on Monday and was able to fix it yesterday with the Facebook method (a million cookies in thanks for that one ladies). Unfortunately it now crashes immediately after the TinyCo logo/screen appears on load. Sometimes it will show a millisecond of actual loading screen but more often than not it does not. Insult to injury, the Facebook method doesn’t help with this one.
1. Was working fine all day until I went to change out quests at 7:45pm CST
2. Canada (SK)
3. Combination of SaskTel and WiFi for my Android tablet and phone (both have issue)
4. Does not help using a second Android device, same issue. No iOS devices and the Facebook method as mentioned does not work.

This started to occur around 10:20pm eastern standard (7:20pm Pacific). I was playing, the game crashed, and I cannot log in since. When i originally logged in I had problems connecting, I figured it was a bad coffee shop connection. At&t connected fine.
I am in Pittsburgh, PA.
I am on at&t.
I get the same crash error on a second Android device, it did not fix the problem. Devices are lg tablet and a galaxy s5 phone.
I did manage to send a crash report with logs when it originally crashed, but was unable to on all subsequent crashes.

Verizon and wifi, on an Android tablet, Android phone and Kindle Fire. All three were crashing on load up.
Last night I was able to log into the Facebook version of the game, and after that I was able to get into the game on all of me other devices. It would still crash in load-up almost half the time, though. Around 10:30pm EDT, all three began crashing on load-up again. I have logged into Facebook and done some things like last night, but that doesn’t seem to be working this time, and I still can’t load the game on my phone or tablets.
