Tiny Tower

[xxfallacyxx]

My sister told me about this game, she plays on her iPhone. She said it's pretty addicting, so I wanted to try it. Go figure, it's not available in the Android market for our phone. There is a round-about way of installing it though. You can visit the google market page on your browser and install it through there, though once it's installed you'll see a message saying it is "incompatible with this device". Feel free to ignore it, the app should now be found in your app drawer.

^Market link, lmk if it doesn't work for some reason.

The other way to install it is to download the apk from a filesharing site. This requires going to your Settings > Applications > check "Unknown Sources". If you want to go this second route, a quick google search for "Tiny tower apk" turns up the right sites.

Oh and once you open up the app it will tell you that it's not fully supported because it hasn't been tested on this device blah blah. I haven't seen an issue with it yet, but I'm at working and only ran the tutorial real quick on my lunch break.

I had an iphone before my Rezound. Tiny Tower on iOS is MUCH MUCH smoother than it was when I had my Nexus briefly. Constantly trying to log into the game center, network errors, etc. My iphone never did that.

I only briefly encountered a login error, but that was my own fault. I didn't know TT needed network access, so Droidwall had blocked it. Changed my rules and allowed TT wifi and network access, and login was smooth and quick afterwards.

No matter what i try if i select my rezound it wont allow the install button to be clicked. If i pick the x2 or my Touchpad it'll work just fine

 

[xxfallacyxx]

I was able to do it without hassle from the market link I posted. It installed automatically.

 

[majorpayne]

Are you side loading it?

 

[xxfallacyxx]

What do you mean by side loading?

"You can visit the google market page on your browser and install it through there, though once it's installed you'll see a message saying it is "incompatible with this device". Feel free to ignore it, the app should now be found in your app drawer."

That is exactly what I did.

 

[majorpayne]

I have used the link you have provided with my PC and my phone both asks me to sign in and once i do tell me my product is not compatible and refuses to load.. no clue... on a different note why would a better phone be incompatible?

 

[xxfallacyxx]

Because it apparently hasn't been tested with the Rezound yet.

Try a google search for "tiny tower apk", you should be able to find a download link for the app outside of the market.

 

[majorpayne]

Testing is easy a Dev comes in the rezound section says i have 5 copies to hand out who wanted to beta test for me... BAM done

 

[xxfallacyxx]

lol I suppose I'm a beta tester then. It's working fine on my phone.

 

[Cartmanz0531]

This app deleted all of my progress. My plea to the developers was net with silence. Below is a transcript of emails sent.

I can not believe that I have not gotten a response yet. I would like for a manager to contact me about this issue. I am very unsatisfied with the lack of customer service I am receiving from this company.

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-02-04 08:51:47 AM PST [Zainab Berte] ---------------------------------------------------------------

Why would I want you to do that? Did you not read my previous email? The only way that would help is if I never close the application. What I want is a refund and for you to fix the issue(with the tower). If you can't do this please put me in touch with someone who can. I don't understand why you would want me to pay for a product that clearly doesn't work.

Hello Brandi,

I re downloaded the from the market, changed the bucks to coins and built some floors. I didn't back to the status I had b4 but I was willing to deal with it. I closed the app and waited for the items to stock. I went back into the app and I am back to 27 floors 6 towerbucks, 37 bitizens and no mobacoins. I would like to delete this app until you guys can get it together over there. Please refund the money I spent on this app. When the app is actually working I would be more than happy to reinvest in it but this is ridiculous.

Hi Zainab,

Thanks for your reply. I refunded the MobaCoin to your account for these transactions. If I can help you with anything else, just write me back.

Hello Zanaib,

All purchases are made through Google Checkout and we have no access to their system or records Brandi had to make an approximate estimate.

The only way we can refund you the correct amount of MobaCoins is if you provide us with your Google Checkout receipt numbers.

Thank You,

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-27 03:58:51 PM PST [Zainab Berte] ---------------------------------------------------------------

I purchased alot more than 910 coins.

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-27 12:45:23 PM PST [Brandi Balentine] ---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Zainab,

I refunded the MobaCoin to your account. To help me document your Tiny Tower issue, the Tiny Tower team and I would appreciate you submitting a detailed bug report at: http://ngmo.co/ujZvne.

They will use this information to investigate and hopefully provide a swift resolution to your issue in a future update. At this time, I don't have the tools available to fix your problem.

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-27 12:08:39 PM PST [Zainab Berte] ---------------------------------------------------------------

Mobage name: Cartmanz28 First & Last name: Zainab Berte I hope it works if not thanks for trying

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-27 11:51:39 AM PST [Brandi Balentine] ---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi again,

Can you send me your Mobage name and the first and last name linked to your Google Wallet account? I can try to find it that way, but there are no guarantees this method will work.

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-26 06:08:59 PM PST [Zainab Berte] ---------------------------------------------------------------

I have ordered alot of tower bucks since I have been playing. Because I do not own a computer it makes putting all of my order numbers in this email difficult. Is there a way to access that information on your end?

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-26 01:23:10 PM PST [Toshi Baker] ---------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Zeinab,

Thank you for reaching out. I do not have the tools to add the progress, bitizens, or Tower Bux back to your Tiny Tower account. However, if you spent MobaCoin to attain the progress which was lost, please provide me with your Google order number and I will credit the MobaCoin back to your account.

To find that number visit https://checkout.google.com, login, click on the View Order link beside your purchase, and the order number will be displayed under the order date. The order number should contain 15 digits.

Thank you,

---------------------------------------------------------------2012-01-26 09:44:37 AM PST [Zainab Berte] ---------------------------------------------------------------

I have the Samsung Epic 4G from Sprint D700

Hi There,

Could you please write back with what specific type of Android device (including model number) you are using? There are hundreds (and counting) of Android devices out on the market, and each device is a bit different.

This info will help me offer you the best advice.

Thanks!

I have Tiny Tower on my Droid Incredible. It works fine. I tried to install it on my Motorola Xoom and got the message that the game was not available for that device. Why? It is an Android tablet. Anyone have a solution?

 

[xxfallacyxx]

Turn on install from unknown sources, download app from internet and install that way. That's how I had to do it on my Rezound.

Fallacy86 if you want to add me btw.

 

[SeeEss]

Thank you. I will try this when I get home.

Hey, what the hell is up with me getting VIP types RIGHT AFTER I needed them in the first place?
I'll pay a few bucks to speed up construction on my floor, and a construction VIP shows up immediately after. I'll sell out of food and need to restock, and here comes that damn celebrity VIP waddling his ass into the elevator.
Frustration, thy name is Tiny Tower.

 

[xxfallacyxx]

If I don't have a need for a VIP, I try to create one before I waste them.

IMO the best VIP is the real estate agent who moves 5 people into an apartment. Very rare though.

 

[moots1]

i cant download it and im on a samsug galaxy ace how do i get it if u can?????? Thnx ppl
Mollie x

 

[xxfallacyxx]

I got it on the Rezound by downloading it via visiting Google Play Store on a computer and signing in with your google account there. Some reported that this did not work for them.
