Football manager restore from titanium backup or nandroid backup problem

Hi All

Was wondering if anyone has suffered this issue that I been suffering recently with regards to restore football manager.

I have a rooted android phone and regularly use Titanium backup and nandroid backup to take nightly backups of my phone. I am an android developer so I am always doing testing on my main phone so for me to have a backup is important so that I can revert changes back in case I mess up my phone after meddling.

I had to do this recently and I also have FMH2016 installed but found when I restored my phone or even just the app and data itself everytime I open FMH2016 it comes up with the following message:

"Confirm Data Download

In order to run football manager mobile the game needs to fetch the latest skin data from our servers, please indicate whether you wish to include player pictures (large download) or just the basic skin data required for the game."

regardless of whichever option I choose it just keep getting download error.

"An error occurred while trying to download the data, please check your connection and indicate if you wish to try again?"

I have tried to delete the app and data and install the game from the playstore again, the download from the play store is fine however when I open the game I get the same errors as above.


I am able to extract the whole data from the game from the backups and can see that I have 2 folders. I am assuming this is the folder it creates when it does the large player pictures download.

.external.com.sigames.fmh2016
com.sigames.fmh2016

All the folders like application_support, data, save_games and user_data are all contained under .external.com.sigames.fmh2016

I have folders code_cache, files, no_backup and shared_pref under the com.sigames.fmh2016

What I have found is if I do a complete wipe of my phone (back to defaults), setup Play store and reinstall the game then it will go ahead and download the files fine. I am assuming that must still be a file on my phone which is preventing it doing the full install again once the game is installed.

Can someone advise what this could be? its driving me crazy! Any help would be most appreciated.

Thank you
