Not sure if this is the right sub-forum, but heyho.
So I bought the Android version of this as well after playing the demo version, but I didn't upgrade through the app (for some reason Google Play Music subscription discount wasn't being applied). I therefore had to download the other non-demo version of the app but of course my save games don't work with that.
Is there any way to move my demo save games over to the full game? I have root so I can manipulate files willynilly.
Consequently, I don't suppose there's a way to move PC and Android games back and forth, is there? (not sync, just ad hoc moving of save games)

Chaotic Entropy - the saved game formats are the same between all devices, so yes you can move them back and forth. It takes some planning if you aren't going to just move everything back and forth every time. Easiest thing -- on Android the games are stored in : /data/data/com.tresebrothers.games.battlefrontelite/files (I think subfolder files .. they are .db files, just like you'd see on PC) You can hop the files from your free copy (com.tresebrothers.games.battlefront) over

don't forget to set the permissions for the destination app on the files you copy. if you don't set owner, the application will crash because the two apps are installed under different users in Android. If you need a tutorial link, I can find one

I think it disliked that, caused lots of crashing. Maybe because I'd reached the end of demo part and the non-demo version didn't know what to do. I've started over on my phone since that was a bust. Edit: Ah didn't see the other post, maybe I'll try that as well to make sure.

The crashing is absolutely caused by the permissions.
Each Android application is installed under it's owner UserId in the Linux OS, and if you don't flip it then the other application will crash with weird permission errors.
That state of other app's file in app folder isn't natural, so Android doesn't handle it too well.
