    Hi darthmarsden
    On the ACR Reddit forum, Very recently A valuable and very knowledgeable user Dear RoughGiGaMo wrote some valuable comments for your problem, I hope these are useful to you:


    "A bit late to answer this, you could if you root both phone which i wouldn't recommend you to do if you don't know what you doing. beside it would void warranty for a new phone.

    if you already root your android, using backup apps like titanium backup should be enough to restore it in a new phone with app+data of ACR. Been using this way to restore some game that can't use cloud save."

    Because both the new and old phones were Samsung Galaxy models, I was able to use an app called Samsung Smart Switch to transfer all my files and stuff over to the new phone.

    ...including my save data.

    I genuinely wasn't sure whether it would work or not, but it did! Hooray!



    This really should be a fully implemented feature so others can actually transfer their saves, but I'll take this small victory

    I am so glad you achieved this
    I hope you aren't mad at me for recommending Facebook for a long time.
    My Only Purpose was to be able to help you
    I am sure this is a great success you have achieved, it will be a big step for many users who cannot do this.
    I was very happy for you
    Congratulations My Friend

    Can you tell me how you do all these operations in turn, so this will be very useful information for all players.
    Before performing this transfer, your New Phone had AC Rebellion installed?
    Please explain all the details, I can share this with all players, it will be very useful for all players.

    Thanks guys!

    I got super lucky there. Like I say, there really should be a proper way to transfer saves on Android devices.

    I'll happily explain what I did, but please bear in mind: both devices were Samsung Galaxy phones. This may not work for other devices out there.

    Also, the game was NOT installed on the new phone prior to doing this. Heck, nothing was installed.

    So. On the old device (a Galaxy S5), I installed an app called Samsung Smart Switch (linked).This was found on the Google Play store, and is free. A quick search should turn it up... if it's compatible with your device. MAKE SURE YOU GO FOR THE ONE BY SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS INC.

    On the new device (a Galaxy A12), I had to install the app a different way. I went into Settings, then 'Accounts and Backup', where the option to install the app was listed under 'Smart Switch'.

    Once the app was installed on both devices, I physically placed both next to each other and on both devices, launched the app.

    When launching the app, you're given two options - 'send data' and 'receive data'. On the OLD phone, I selected 'Send data', and on the NEW phone I selected 'Receive data'.

    From there, the process was fairly straightforward. It took a few seconds for the phones to find each other, but once they did, the options were pretty clear, and I transferred over everything I could. It took about 10-15 minutes in total, mostly because I didn't have all that much stuff on my old phone - if you've got more photos and such on your device, it could well take longer.

    Once I was done, I took the NEW phone and launched Rebellion, which was now on the phone, having been transferred from the old one. When I did, I got the prompt that says 'your save data doesn't match the online one'. I selected the LOCAL DATA (ie: the one on the phone), and from there the game restarted and loaded up with that data.

    And with that, I was able to play as normal.

    ...well, I say normal, but the game hasn't crashed once, so that's rather abnormal to me!
