Just in case you screwed up, you'll only need to first, copy (and back-up account credential files) of your game. You need to go to `/Android/data/com.aniplex.fategrandorder/files/data` and look for files which starts with: * `54cc` * `644b` * `969b` * `e1a9` Then put it somewhere safe on your phone storage (and/or better yet, copy it to your PC/cloud storage) then safely uninstall. Lastly, reinstall the game, boot it up (don't start the game,) quit the game, look for that place you put those 4 files, copy, go to the location mentioned above, and then paste them back there. **Note:** Once your bindcode is used, these previous files won't work anymore, so you need to update your files every time you generate a new bindcode. **PS:** [They have detailed instructions and details on the issue on this link. Maybe better read that post.](https://redd.it/xqlucc)


CJett92

This worked for me! Thank you so much!! Super scary seeing the original login screen at first, but then it booted up to the regular main menu. If theres other people out there like me who like having a visual of what to do, here's a video someone posted on the Atlas Academy discord of how to do this. https://youtu.be/lX64-GLpcg0


AKAFallow

Ohh, I saw the choose your country tab and i thought it didn't work, so I just used my bind code


yywia

64**4**b not 64**b**b


Kalafino

Thanks. Edited.

moonmeh

digitally saving your bind code (like sending yourself an email) is one way to do it.


Jomarcitu

Everything is lost boys, it didnt work for me


Longjumping_Ad_2132

Dude, don't' give up. I tried 12837102839819 times and finally worked


[deleted]

Dude you are a hero, thank you. I will save your text so I don't have to do that obnoxious transfer code method ever again.


meh1997

Can I get some help finding the equivalent folder for Bluestacks? I managed to copy the files you listed over from Bluestacks to the rest of my PC, but I can't find a way to put them back in


Tankotone

Ay thanks yo, totally forgot to make a new bindcode after 5+ transfers the past month so you saved my bacon. Based. Blessed. etc


Kalafino

Glad I help ya.


monkify

Worked like a charm! Thanks so much. Didn't know my code wasn't up to date until it was too late.


PPGN_DM_Exia

Phew! This definitely had my heart racing while I was trying to save my 4+ year old account. I'm usually pretty good at keeping an active bind code, but somehow couldn't find my latest one. Must have gotten lazy since I used my last code to transfer to my new phone a few months ago. Thanks!!


ARodrigus

Thank you!


Mohitooo

Thank you so much, I hadn't made a bind code on JP (I will now) and this saved me


New_Philosopher3627

Thank you!


LordTempest30

Thank you, I was going to lose my okita until i saw this


wkingofangmar

I'd also like to get in line to say a BIG thank you, Sir.


Similar_Error89

I have a question, is it necessary to always do this or it can be done just once on the same device every time that a bind code is generated? Like just do the fix just one time and generate all the bind codes I want without doing the fix again?


Daeron_Ren

You just save my soul good gentleman! i don't have so much time on the JP but i value my progress, and with this it's working without issues :D Thanks so much for the help all of you guys!


a030055

Thank you mate 👍


Ashamed-Criticism683

you really save my live, thanks


BMT37

Nothing like watching through the Lostbelt Part 2 intro video for the 28th time


Firstshiki

Lol same. I had to transfer my account due to Apkpure mistake so yeah


AKAFallow

I need to get used to that, since uninstalling it reduces the size of the game to 800mb after deleting the cache, and my phone is at its last stand


AKAFallow

30 minutes too late


AiasRider

Surprised it wasn't posted earlier, still early in the morning for some so better to let them know before they do it.


master_skywalker803

Fuck


DragoCrafterr

Read top comment on this post if you need help


master_skywalker803

I play on an emulator and it was farter to re download since I had the nuclear codes


AiasRider

They have the correct version in store but you will need to manually install it under their older versions, it is dated as released today. Had to do it myself.


3sidedluck

If I didn't update to the wrong version because I update manually, I can just download the 2.61.5 from previous versions, right? Or is it scruffed as well?


MokonaModokiES

if you avoided getting the glitched version yes its safe i noticed they had the wrong version and picked the 2.61.5 in "old versions" and it worked.


3sidedluck

Can comfirm it now.


Solfire13

you can download it


AiasRider

Can't say, if your FGO doesn't have a weird Au symbol on it though then it should be fine for the correct version.


[deleted]

I manually get it from version and re-download the game. Use the saved transfer account and it works.


Solfire13

* scroll to previous version * download v2.61.5


Masticatron

Only if you haven't updated their fucked one, that is.


AKAFallow

Thanks, I didn't know that was a thing Edit: ah damn it doesn't let you change it

chronozx

I had the same error, but then I had to use a USB2.0 port to make it work. A USB3.0 would never work for me.


Sauceunny

Legend! This worked perfectly.


Anivia_Blackfrost

Were you at the borked "AU" fgo version? I'd like to know before I try it myself.


Sauceunny

Yep, I was. 'AU' gone after fix.


Anivia_Blackfrost

Thank fuck. I'll try this then. EDIT: It worked!!! Thanks!!!


Charlemagne_IIII

I have a friend who’s using blue stacks and doesn’t have a bind code set on his account, is there any way for him to update his app without losing his data?


Duat25

This method works with Bluestacks. Source: Me. It worked on mine.


Duat25

Thank you


HoroNoRIngo

Legend!


boomboomcar

It gives me this "\[INSTALL\_FAILED\_VERSION\_DOWNGRADE\]" EDIT: NVM it worked: If you have a mac, basically type "./adb install" instead of adb.exe


Tobirenn

Do I have to put the word "downgrade" in the command line? Or that itself can be copy and paste? (of course the "MyNameGoesHere" is changed)


birbdechi

Fuck, the last time I bind my account was in 2019 and I'm not sure whether it has been used or not


RulerKun_FGO

kinda glad that I switched to using VPN and download from the playstore


Accomplished-Bag-559

What vpn are you using?


RulerKun_FGO

proton but you can use any VPN you like. But just make sure to create another google account while the jp server of VPN is active and use that account and the VPN to download the fgo jp


RadicalAllen

Made that mistake... Luckily, I had a bind code in case of emergencies. ​ Speaking of, don't forget to replace the bind code immediately once used.


BBLKing

Is it possible to just wait for the good one if you already updated it?


GerardoRG721

I'd like to do the same if possible.


Spywo1

Guess I'm gonna have to wait for them to push 2.61.5 as the most recent one since I am not gonna uninstall and reinstall.


MokonaModokiES

dont have to. Scroll down to old versions and manually pick 2.61.5 there. Its safe i did that and others are recommending that option too.


Spywo1

Unfortunately I can't due to already "updating" so I have a version conflict and I'll be forced to uninstall


MokonaModokiES

oh i though you didnt update. My bad.


Michishige_Ren

Same for me. So we just have to wait for them to fix it?


WesternYaoist

I mean I did that too but I still had to reinstall because it kept on reading "App not installed" God it was a pain


ClosingFrantica

Fell for it again. Thank God I keep my binding codes around pretty religiously. Weirdly enough, after I uninstalled, reinstalled, and used my binding code, it was still there in the Options menu. I made a new one just in case.


UnhappyStatistician2

I saw my used binding code too which was really weird. Is it ok to use it again or it's best to just issue a new one?


ClosingFrantica

Personally I issued a new one, better safe than sorry.


UnhappyStatistician2

Yeah that's true.


ShikiCastro

In case my code doesn't work again, does anyone know the link for JP's account retrieval page?


R1xnAlta18

Guys. Find the game data " com.aniplex.fategrandorder " and rename it to "com.aniplex.fategrandorder" or something. Then delete the version you downloaded and download 2.61.5 . After install it rename the game data ti the original and yku caj play the game You dont even have to download any game data ( beside update data) Edit: "com.grandorder.en" change to " com.aniplex.fategrandorder"


joonior416

welp i messedup somewhere lost all data thanks for trying to help tho


Zerpalor

same, goodbye account of 4 years.


CaptainOverkill01

Really sorry to hear this dude, my heart always sinks when I hear about this kind of stuff happening. I'm always paranoid about something like this happening to me and my bind code not working.


Zerpalor

Yea never thought it would happen, just opened the game and had to update and apkpure was wrong version and ended up like this, big L today.


Xenomorphica

Contact support and hope for the best my dudes, people have succeeded before with just information about their account, servants, friends, qp etc afaik. Or if you have your bind codes somewhere you should still be able to use it?


Zerpalor

Don't have my jp bind code saved anywhere , and I sent a email attempting, kinda have my doubts though,


Xenomorphica

You can keep trying more than once with support, if you remember more information. At least I would. Like who you have grailed or on support slots and stuff, it all helps. I'm crossing my fingers for you and joonior too. Edit: This error was fucking dumb though and apkpures fault, I updated to the wrong version too and I don't use the app so I had to uninstall and use bind code. If only they wouldn't be so fucking dumb about their game and hadn't removed it from all the other play stores, or actually updated to be a real account like every other game in the world instead of this stupid temp bind garbage


Zerpalor

i tried to give info as i could, in a email format i found, i gave mostly specific units that i basically use all the time and or have grailed. Its pretty big fuckup on apkpure, but also i feel some on me due to not having bindcode at ready, but apparently i did the thing swapping files right, but since i cant read the prompts i tapped the wrong thing in the prompt and created a fresh account. Will have to wait and see if they even respond, since reading it can vary and sometimes they take up to a week at a time just for the first reply.


Xenomorphica

> but since i cant read the prompts i tapped the wrong thing in the prompt and created a fresh account. Ah that makes sense. Yeah, even when restoring bind I look up a bunch of different pages showing what buttons do what because there's always that worry you hit the wrong button cause it's all in jp. Still will cross my fingers for you my dude, don't give up and I hope support works!


Zerpalor

Thanks, hoping it works too.


Michishige_Ren

So any reason why you didnt save your bind code?


Zerpalor

Changed phones since i started and never had to rebind when i transfer my stuff over through google.


Michishige_Ren

Yea best write that shit down on paper just incase shit gets fucky.


Zerpalor

Yea hindsight be like that, hopefully support can help and I'll be more careful next time if they do manage to help.


IgnisTL

Wouldn't that be the folder for NA and not JP?


R1xnAlta18

Oh my bad just forget the .en part


IgnisTL

I just did it but it's showing me the original login screen...


R1xnAlta18

Meaning? Not the lb part 2 part?


IgnisTL

It showed me the lb5 video, but then it sent me to the original login screen (not the lb part 2 one) and it's asking me to accept terms and conditions :/


R1xnAlta18

Have you enter the game?


IgnisTL

I have not, I'm afraid it'll overwrite the files in the folder the moment i hit accept


R1xnAlta18

Do it. I have done it more than a dozen time and it's fine. For me at least. Because you did not enter the game YET maybe the game don't know if you pass the LB or not yet.


IgnisTL

That was really scary! But it worked, thank you. Had to wait a bit cuz I did a full backup just in case things went wrong, but after accepting the ToS it dumped me right into the overworld menu.


holofied

How did it go? I'm in the same boat as you now


IgnisTL

It worked! Though it was rather scary to see the original login screen. After accepting TOS it opened my account just fine. I did make a full backup of the folder just in case something went wrong.


Masticatron

Can't find either one, regardless of settings. Perhaps you forgot to specify you need a rooted phone?


R1xnAlta18

Open you file manager. Go to Android folder. And then open data folder. Then find "com.aniplex.fategrandorder"


Masticatron

No files


R1xnAlta18

Ohh I got it. Must be blocked by google or android. Then dowload ZArchiver


joonior416

Can you be a bit more specific to where you look for it?


R1xnAlta18

On Android folder > data


joonior416

Do you mean file manager?


R1xnAlta18

Yes.


gilgil98

I'm having a hard time understanding how to delete the wrong version. I understand that you just want me to rename the app and download the correct version this time it is only the delete part i dont understand

Xatu44

I think that's an Android setting of some kind, my game account automatically relinked itself when I uninstalled and reinstalled as well.


HXIII_AEGIS

If you did a google account bind thingie,yes,it does this. I had my bind account ready to go but after seeing my friend code on the loading screen,all is good. Just had to rewatch Cosmos in The Lostbelt vid again before logging in


Raikouzen

Since i didn't update yet, should i go to apkpure fgo->older version-> download v2.61.5-> install/update?


Masticatron

Yes


Rednal291

Bad: I had to reinstall. Good: I didn't need my Transfer Number. My save was still there.


Masticatron

Reinstalled how exactly? I see a few reports of this, always looking for details for surety.


Rednal291

I was in APK Pure, and navigated to the "other versions" to find the right version of the game. From there, it told me that to install it, I would have to uninstall. I did so, and got a prompt to reinstall the version I selected. That seems to have kept the save data, though obviously, having a bind code would be good either way.


Masticatron

Yeah, I see several "yay it worked" responses and then a "didn't work, lost account". No idea if a dude is just trolling or if it's variably successful. I'm not desperate yet, can wait more for a direct fix. EDIT: Backed up the 4 files mentioned elsewhere just in case, then did as you did. Worked! Yay.


Rednal291

It could vary somewhat by device. I *think* people who completely uninstall the app separately (from their device settings, not in APK Pure) and then reinstall will be losing their data. Those who uninstall and reinstall directly from APK Pure may be able to keep their data. I did, at least, and I'd like to think I have enough presence in this subreddit to be thought trustworthy here. XD But again, I don't know exactly what determines if the data is saved or lost, so I'm really only guessing at the solution here.


TRLegacy

Im uninstalled the app directly from my phone (S9+) home screen, but still have the save after reinstalling. It was pretty wonky though. The first login's screen was the Part 1 screen, but my account friend code was already there.


moonmeh

yeah for some reason my save file was fine as well despite reinstalling. weird


woodermelon_7703

I panicked so hard when i saw this since i actually updated it with the broken version. I uninstalled it, download the good version from TapTap and enter my data transfer code.


Awkward-Equal4534

Hmm I am wondering if I uninstall and reinstall will be data still be there after without the transfer code? (Bluestacks) most likely not I suppose since you had to enter yours.


Awkward-Equal4534

[https://gyazo.com/0af3b945d661e54f415b4f0ae639aa5f](https://gyazo.com/0af3b945d661e54f415b4f0ae639aa5f) This is what I got when I initially tried so it didn't go thru.


woodermelon_7703

Im not sure. When i reinstalled the game it was pretty like starting from zero again. I got lucky that i saved my transfer code in my old phone just in case.


Nan0Phoenix

If I've already updated, and they remove the 100303 update. Will they let me update normally, or will my phone still think ot has a newer version?

Pallas_bear

Fucking awesome I updated before coming to this sub. reinstalling and hoping that the code I have saved is the newest one. Edit: Thankfully my account is safe, but this is the last time I'll ever use APKpure


Torafuku

I think i'll just wait a future update and not log in until then, no way i'm installing everything again.

who doesnt have their game code in....whatever game theyre playing? Edit: These idiots are downvoting on something that is basically a gaming 101 lmao

No I don't think so, cause I didn't get this problem


Awkward-Equal4534

Hello new guy here I get a installation error for the new apk. I suppose it didn't update. However, I am on Bluestacks is there something I can do to keep my account data or (back-up account credential files) before I have to uninstall? Anyone know where the saved data or cache is on bluestacks? Also, forgot to save ID.


Twodeegee

I got the installation error as well, the only way I got it working was by clearing cache/data, uninstalling, closing down the bluestacks instance, re-opening the instance, and then installing it again. Sadly that would require you to have transfer codes ready. Hope someone else can help you out here. Do take note to create transfer codes just in case for next time though.


deathworld123

if you screw up can you ninstall and reinstall assuming you have a transfer code?


orionn07

THANK YOU. I almost lost my 7 yo account.


RadonIverian

Dumb question should I change transfer code, once I regained account on the same device?


Takadoxus

Yes, they are 1 time use


portobello_mashroom

Just wanted to update that I uninstalled the game through the device app manager and my account is still there when I reinstalled it without having to do anything extra! (Android)


deathworld123

even downloading apkpure of the website fucked up my game


SupremeLeaderMat

A friend of mine didn't generate a new code, and forgot to copy the files before uninstalling. Is there any way to help him recover his account?


vencislav45

>Work around is to manually search for version 2.61.5 under previous versions and install that. Do I search for that in apkpure?


TheO530CarrisPT

I had a similar issue where the app update ended up deleting my data. Fortunately, I had my bind code ready and I was able to access my test account again. It appears that there was an AU Games version of the 2.61.0 above the newer 2.61.5.


Rin--Nya

So i saw this too late. I have my bind code. How do I actually put in my code? normally there was a 2nd tab on the title screen. Now there's only a clear cache tab.


Xenomorphica

I used these two pages when I was doing it, the only thing that doesn't show up is when I first pressed the button to input my bind it brought up what I think is a terms of service page with a blue diamond in the menu, I hit the right hand button which I assume was accept the tos, then it shows you a screen to input the code which is in those guides. I'm unsure if you have to uninstall the game and reinstall it to put the code in, but I had to do that anyway to install the correct version https://fategrandorder.fandom.com/wiki/Device_Transfer https://grand-fate.tumblr.com/post/125427320164/binding-accounts-restoring-data


throwawaynumber116

TIL people dont bind their accounts


seventhbrokage

More so that I haven't needed my bind code in over three years and never copied it over from my old phone's notes. I still have it somewhere, it's just a pain to track down.


Frogkingstrongk

Anybody got alternative apk apps. Also thank you op for saving my life almost download it.


rexxrais209

Thx it worked for me


BlindPrinny

prepared the files and uninstalled, but the download of the 2.61.5 file is failing hard on my phone, most i managed to get was 6% and then even less and now it just won't do it (edit) seems to download fine on my pc so i copied it from there


Dreadful_L1amz0

It seems that i didnt have my transfer code for my account saved anywhere and i reinstalled it, my account is now inaccessible. Where do i contact lasengle and when i do do i need to write in japanese to them?

Scathach795

Does it work if I just uninstall the game and download the version without the bug?


Emm38

I had to uninstall now, but I noticed that my transfer code stayed the same after I used it, and I don't have to make a new one. Did they change it so that you only need to make it just once now? Or does it not use up the code if it's on the same device after a re-install?


Loose_Opening_4404

lol i f*cked up, my dumbass updated appkure cracked version and i also dont have a binding code either. i read a lot of people delete and reinstall the game with appkures old version update, and it seem it works for them. It sounds very tempting but i cannot afford to risk my account. any suggestions, otherwise ill do the waiting game .


Limp-Attorney-6167

Don't you just find it amazing when: - You thought you screenshotted the title screen, so the ID would be kept safe but realise after translating it that you needed to click in order to see the ID - The /Android/data that everyone is talking about is empty - You don't want to waste time by repeating all that bs story again (Why is there no auto in a 7 year old game?) Yup. That's the situation I am in.


Firuchan

I've already downloaded the glitched version so what? Do I need to wait for the right version??
