Android user and dying to play S2E5?
Okay guys, let me help you out.
While we PATIENTLY wait for the Android episode, everyone else on the planet seems to already have it. You've played through Episode 4 and you're dying to finish the game?
Here is one way to avoid the wait - AND keep all your hard work in Episodes 1-4.
Buy the game on PC via Steam. It has been on sale as much as 60% off, so you can probably get it on the cheap.
On your Android device, locate the folder /sdcard/Telltale/WalkingDead2
Copy all the files found within to your PC install, normally:
C:\Users[yourPClogin]\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead Season Two
OVERWRITE any files that are already there. (note, if you already owned it before and have played, this will wipe your existing data)
Start the game. Poof, your save slot from Android is available and all your decisions are there and safe.
Continue and play Episode 5 and see how it all ends!
If you have issues:
- Play the PC version, Episode 1, until you get a save point.
- Take Steam OFFLINE. I don't think it syncs, but if it does, your Android files might get dumped.
Have fun. I'm off to finish Episode 5 on the PC right now. Beats waiting until God knows when.
If you have questions, I'll do my best to answer.

I'm pretty sure you need to take Steam OFFLINE. When you reconnect, Steam will complain that your cloud files aren't in sync. UPLOAD the new files to the cloud (I had to do it twice for some reason).
