    I reinstalled the game and suddenly image is not loading in game. I am not able to play any quest. Before reinstalling everything is working fine. I have attached the screenshot below.
    My mobile is OnePlus6 and Android version is 9.
    Please fix the game first instead of adding new stuff. And it happen everytime whenver update come with new characters or quest then game start getting bug.
    Please add a option for playing in 60fps. Even old games are now releasing with 60fps.

    Odd things happening with me as well. I am using OnePlus 6 with Android 9 too

    This is happening since the update 20.0. Delay in loading the text variables, the mugshots of the champs and even updating the resources numbers while moving in between nodes. I already posted on twitter, in forums and crash reports with all tech infos. No reply as of today.

    With my knowledge of programming, I suspect there is some kind of timer the devs added to avoid servers overload which is causing this delay on our side now.

    I think issue is happening in Android 9 because of permission. In Android 9 it is not asking for storage permission because of that cache is not able to download in storage. Kabam need to release update with storage permission. I cannot give forcefully permission to storage in Android 9 OnePlus6.

    Guys, if possible, see if you can downgrade to Android OS 8, I just did and the game is working 100%. For those that have the same device I have, ONEPLUS 6, I followed these instructions for the downgrade BUT BE WARNED, YOU MUST BACK UP YOUR DEVICE since the downgrade will wipe all contents on the phone.

    Pixel 2 XL. Android 9. Images are missing and there are white boxes everywhere.

    From what I can tell this is not an issue with Android 9 or the 20.1 update specifically. Issue began yesterday morning for me, which was after a day of running 20.1 successfully. I installed Android 9 last month and there hadn't been any issues. So I'm leaning toward a change made server-side with Kabam that created this issue. Definitely seems limited to Android 9 users.

    I will not downgrade my OS because a game developer in incompetent.

    As for the issues experienced, its the same as the images posted by @Gildarts779. Missing champion profiles, failed images, causes lockup issues in crystals screen and quests.

    Please get some attention on this and get it resolved @Kabam Miike @Kabam Porkchop @Kabam Lyra @Kabam Zibiit @Kabam Vydious @Ad0ra_

    @bpunk88 yes, same for me. it wasn't the update to the new game version because I played with the new game Monday no problem. It was Tuesday morning when it stopped working.
  • ObebuddaObebudda Member Posts: 26 ★

    I could be wrong but I believe that might classify as operating with a 3rd party app. I mean... it's to access the game and normally they would ban for use of 3rd party software as it provides an unfair advantage but in this case, it's to play the game... so who knows what Kabam would do in this situation. I dunno, I really want to but I also don't want to test their ban hammers. Cause we know those are never bugged.
  • bpunk88bpunk88 Member Posts: 184 ★★★
    @Gildarts779 you may be on to something there. Just checked my app and it has no permissions requested. That may likely be the underlying issue. I believe previous versions have needed storage permissions.

    Any mods care to weigh in?

    I have the same issue and my app also hasn't requested permissions. It would make sense no access to storage no access to the needed data.

    Yeah, @rafius_kantun we're pretty sure it's happening only with Android 9 with the latest security patch which went live over the past few days and Kabam hasn't updated their app for the change in permissions.

    I don't know if Kabam is taking this information in correctly though. One of the mods merged the issue of not being able to load the game with other users who reported issues in game. It's never smart to generalize which is what they did by combining the threads, as now it's not a focused problem with what we've identified quite clearly as the probably root cause...
  • rafius_kantunrafius_kantun Member Posts: 30 ★
    @CaptainStevio I fully agree. I posted here because the login issue thread hasn't received any mod attention at all.
    I'm the leader of a 16+ mil alliance. AQ has started. I'm getting desperate...

    This is nonsense. No replies from mods that this is even being looked into.

    But hey, at least it works on iOS so they wont look like complete fools at NYCC

    I started experiencing this last month with that update. This update is even worse. It takes so long to load I have to keep logging out and logging in again. The crystals screen stay froze so long I don't even want to open crystals. My alliance has been upset with my sa scores. I don't know how to finish all this new content with it taking so long to load along with the lag and freezing. Last month I got nothing done and missed out on so many rewards. Please fix asap!
  • 937Ladyk22937Ladyk22 Member Posts: 16 ★
    I also deleted the app and download it again with same results. So frustrating
  • SlackSlack Member Posts: 16 ★
    There has been a visual bug since the new update came out. This bug makes some images of the game not shown, it happens with characters, items, chests, etc. I hope the developers solve this annoying bug.
