lost vault

Post » Thu Feb 18, 2016 9:43 am

I have recently lost my vault, hope I can get some help with this.


  1. Samsung galaxy tab 4

  2. Android version 4.4.2

  3. After the patch was launched I loaded up the game and it kept crashing while loading up my vault, so I uninstalled and reinstalled and my vault was gone.

  4. it didn't update normally. I have it set to auto update.

Have the same problem. Lost my vault with 65 launchboxes, maybe some of them was a boxes with Mr.Handy. it happened after my phone turned off because of battery.. I spent to this vault arround 100$ upgrading it and getting some Mr.Handys. Moreover I uploaded/contected my vault to the cloud. So I guess Bethesda must do something about that. Hope they will fixe it and give our vaults back ASAP!!!

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.5

I updated over the old build automatically via store.



I'm ok to start new vault, the layout was bad anyway ;)



but I bought 40 lunchboxes and 5 Mr. Handys so it would be nice to get those back!

I play through bluestacks app player on my computer through my samsung 4 phone, which I am sure is going to be a "too bad your loss" for using it but worth a try


After updates were added (the cloud) my vault was gone


just about 200 people lost


5 Mr. Handys


as well as rare outfits, characters and weapons gone from purchasing lunch boxes



Help please, I was so proud of my vault :/

Same issue here. Just started playing this game 2 weeks ago and it was working flawlessly until this weekend. Now it crashes frequently, and when it does my vault disappears. Sometimes after restarting my phone the vault shows back up and I can play, but any changes I make disappear the next time I am able to load it. Extremely frustrating!



  • Kyocera C6530N

  • Android 4.3

  • Originally updated but I have tried reinstalling the game and the issue persists

  • It was set to auto update

I moved all my files on my Samsung note 2 from device storage to SD card, and my vault is gone.

All my files are there in the sd card, and I switched back to device storage, but it's still gone.

Anybody know if it's possible to get my vault back?

Same here. Two different vaults, weeks apart and different versions of the game...same issue. Game crashed right after buying a load of lunchboxes, phone restarted, vaults gone, vault save file now 0kb.



It appears the Android version of FS is beta and not stable, certainly not to be charging users for in game content.



Your vaults are stored locally on your phone so they are gone along with any mr handy and lunchbox purchases. (Also read reports of cloud games being nuked too).



Bethesda doesn't seem to be at all bothered and taking notice so only one thing left to do, complain to google and get your money back people!!



--------------------------------------------------------------------



Fire up the game, click on the cogs in the top left corner, then click 'i' and then help.



Select Fallout shelter -> android -> proceed



Then search for 'shelter help' . It should find the article: 'what should I do if I experience issues with fallout shelter'



At the bottom of the article is a link for android -> google store.



Here is where someone can actually help (thanks google).



Verify your account details, say you want a refund due to the app crashing or in my case in app purchases did not work, then just include the order number you were sent in the purchase email and submit!



Did it this evening and happy to say my money back in my account in under 30 mins. All credit to google.



Bethesda....shame on you. This is serious a BETA app!

Did you have a cloud save of your Vault? If so, you should be able to recover it.



For purchase-related issues, I would recommend reaching out to our support team at http://help.bethesda.net
