Game does not open LG Optimus G E970
Somewhat self-explanatory title. I try to launch the game, but it never starts up. The screen flickers like it's about to open up, but just reverts back to my app drawer.
No custom rom installed, running Android 4.1.2, not unlocked or jailbroken, plays both Walking Dead games without any problem, but TftB and GoT both refuse to open.
Frustration!

Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times, even did a factory reset on the phone just in case an extreme measure would help, but nothing so far...
My apologies, your particular device should be able to run the game successfully. Can you please clarify if you have Tales From The Borderlands and Game of Thrones installed to your internal memory, or to an external SD Card? Also, have you made sure to force close any other open applications running in the background before attempting to start the games?
Yup, I force closed all apps, tried keeping the phone off for 10 minutes before turning it back on, and it's installed on the internal memory. LG Optimus G doesn't allow you to move apps to the SD card, actually. Still puzzled!
Please also try going to the device’s Settings Menu, then go to Applications, then Manage Applications, and select Tales From The Borderlands and tap ‘Clear Data’ at the top of the menu. Then try restarting the game application while connected to a WiFi network. If the issue persists, can you please clarify how much space you have left on your internal memory?
Just checked to clear the data, but data was at 0kb since I haven't been able to fully launch the game; not even to a loading screen. I have about 5gb of free space on my internal storage.
Not sure if this would help in a diagnosis of the issue, but with the recent update for Game Of Thrones, it's now running. Hopefully a new Borderlands update is coming soon?
Nevermind, GoT goes back to the home screen after trying to start apisode 1.
I'm starting to think it has something to do with graphics rendering. I decided to try and bypass episode one and jump straight into episode 2. It brought me to the "previously on" screen with a brief voice-over, then back to the home screen. When I bypass episodes 1 and 2, jumping straight into episode 3, I get about 10 seconds into the "previously on" section, then back to the home screen. This is so frustrating.
My apologies, Below are a few more potential solutions (You may have tried a few already, but I will post all of our potential solutions below for you to try):
1) Make sure your OS is updated to the most recent version
2) Force stop the application, and then relaunch it
3) Reset your WiFi settings by turning them Off, and back On then reconnect with the network.
4) Turn off your device for a few minutes, before attempting to launch the game again.
5) Go to the device’s Settings Menu, then go to Applications, then Manage Applications, and select the Game Application and tap ‘Clear Data’.
6) Delete the application from your device, and re-download it from the App Store (Please note that this will NOT delete your save data)
Unfortunately if you still experience the issue, I would have to recommend either try playing on a different Android device that is above the minimum system requirements, or contact Google Play Support for further assistance and more suggestions on how to improve the performance of your device.
Sorry for the long pause between responses!
I've switched over to an LG G3 since the last post, and happy to say it's running without an issue. It's just weird that it wouldn't run on the Optimus E970, even after the last round of potential solutions.
My apologies for any difficulties this has caused you, and I hope you are now able to enjoy the game!
Wasn't sure if I should create a new thread, but I purchased the Season Pass on May 2nd. I'm trying to download episode 2 in-game, but it keeps rerouting me to the Google Play payment screen.
Disregard. I restarted my phone and that fixed it. Sorry!
I apologize for any inconvenience caused by this. Thank you for posting how you were able to resolve your issue, I hope that you are now able to enjoy the game!
