Keyboard crash and rename to empty string perm crash state

Post » Sat Feb 13, 2016 5:58 pm

I have a bug report and a big problem I need help with.

I have a galaxy tab II 10.1 android tablet running the latest version of Fallout Shelter.

When I previously tried to rename a character by tapping on their name, only occasionally did the keyboard come up. When it did come up it often quickly disappeared. I was using the build-in keyboard program by Samsung. I was able to occasionally rename characters before it disappeared.

Today when i tried renaming a character the keyboard came up and then disappeared again, as before, but this time it deleted the pre-generated name and left an empty string. Now with no keyboard and no way to type in anything I waited to see if the keyboard woud come back up. After a short delay (15s) the app crashed. Now whenever I reload the game I get the Splash screen "bethesda" and then a loading screen until it crashes again.

I spent alot of time at $15 so far on this game, If I uninstall and reinstall i'm afraid i will lose all my time and money. Is there a way to recover my game from this bug?


Edit: My Vault1.sav file is not 0 kB


Thanks

I use an Android device also and had the exact same problem.

I cleared it up by shutting down all the background processes and reverting my keyboard back to the factory installed app.

It rarely occurs now, but clears up if I go back to Main Menu, then re-enter the vault.

Hope this helps :)
