Hello, is there any way to transfer savegame or at least selected squad from old device to new? My old device is rooted (it is several years old phone, so already without warranty), but i don't want to void warranty on new device, which i will buy in close future (so i can't to use Titanium Backup for this purpose). Thanks in advance for any reply. Tarran

I have logged this request as TA #769 and will be working on it ASAP.
We will probably have to ask you to wait a few weeks, but it is in the queue.
There are two options -- one, Android Cloud Backup Service, which is sorta unreliable on some devices (especially rooted / ROM customized ones.)
The other option is a "TB Hub" application that has a bunch of permissions and access to the game's data, so you can extract and upload/save and then import.

The TB Hub app sounds like a great place for an "Add Custom Campaign" button!

Thanks for quick reply. First option isn't working for this - most probably because I have custom ROM (experimental cyanogenmod v10.1). But for second option - what is "TB hub" app? I can't find it. Anyway, if the save/squad export/import is planned, I can wait :-)

Tarran - the Trese Brothers HUB is an app that doesn't exist yet, but an idea that Cory and I have been kicking around. We want to stand strong on our "no network permissions in games" policy, but for those players who want the games but also want some added services, installing the HUB (which requires network permissions) would give us some major benefits (reliable cloud backup being one!)

I understand and appreciate the no permissions angle and it is one of the main reasons I first downloaded your software... there are a lot of games I hAve not downloaded because of required permissions. . That said... I trust your software now and wouldn't object to something simple like network permissions.
Especially for something cool like custom campaigns... copying save data, etc

bobsoup - agreed, but I hope you can understand our pre-occupation with new customers I am always amazed how much "no permissions" is mentioned by our gamers!

According to our statistics from Google about 94% of our players on ST support Cloud Backup.
Custom mods and broken ROMs are common but the majority of our players do have Cloud Backup.
I think TB Application Hub would be a very interesting project. Maybe something to work on if our KickStarter's success earns us more time to spend on games!
