you have to play through all the levels to get to 203..

unless you're already at that level and it went back to level 1, wait for it to load. give it a couple of seconds and it will go back to normal.

[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Maybe the update from 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 has broken it. Try the download link in the OP for 1000 lives as that's based on 1.0.6.

I'll add a mirror to box shortly.

+1!
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
Me too ... I think my issue is the signing. I used the DIY method for changing the # of lives & it did not work (parse error when I tried to install). But when I used the "easy" method (using the apk downloaded from the op) it did work. I then tried the DIY method for changing the # of moves. I tried 3 different signing tools. I even tried changing # of moves to 99 instead of 100, thinking maybe it didn't like 3 digit numbers. But it still just uses the default # of moves. So ... if there is an apk out there w/the # of moves already hacked ... or if someone can help me figure out why mine is not working, I would greatly appreciate it!

Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

Is the 100 moves for all the lvls or only 1. Just saying what if we used all the 1001 lifes, so to get back 1001 lifes we have to start from lvl 1 again? ( I left with 700 ) because we have to uninstalled and restore the lvl 1 data.
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
No you start where you left off as long as you copy out your save_dat before un-installing. Lets say you use all your 1000 lives at level 99, to regain them simply repeat the steps in the OP and you'll carry on from 99 with 1000 lives.

For extra moves on the levels you will need to edit the .txt file for that particular level e.g.

I'm stuck on level 10

Pull out the level 10.txt and edit it using 7 zip to give me 100 moves.

Drag it back in, back-up and delete META-INF.

Sign the apk, un-install old and install new apk.

Open the app, exit the app and copy in the save_dat.

Now you have 100 moves on level 10.

*If you want Facebook sync

Complete level 10 and copy out your save_dat.

Un-install the hacked apk and install the original from the Play store.

Open the app, exit the app and copy in the save_dat.
[Android Apps and Games] chev:
Thats what im missing, im only completing level 1 and on facebook im stucked on level 70ish shouldve continued the game till 70+ on the hacked apk and uninstall and install?
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Have you only got to level 70 on facebook?
[Android Apps and Games] chev:
Yup 72 to be exact.
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Try opening up original candy crush and sign into facebook to sync.

If it syncs up and moves you to level 72 then follow the steps in the OP for save and restore.

I think what's happening is you don't have a save_dat with your progress level 72), so hopefully syncing with facebook and copying out the save_dat should enable you to then install the hacked version, restore the level 72 save-dat and push through.... if that makes sense.
[Android Apps and Games] chev:
Yup got it! will try that
[Android Apps and Games] Lightfeather:
I'm trying to play this game standalone, without inflicting it on Facebook, but now I'm stuck. The game is asking me to either bug friends on Facebook for three tickets or buy them to progress. Is there any way to bypass the ticket requirement?
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
I used the new signing tool and instructions that you've added to the op (thank you!) I do have java and android sdk added to my path variables & I tested that via the command prompt as the instructions described. The signing tool seemed to work for both signing & zip align. But when I tried to install it, I get the error "not installed". I'm just going to keep trying!
[Android Apps and Games] liquidfood:
Nice will try when i get home.
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
This apk did not work for me at all ... not the extra lives, nor the number of moves. Maybe I should try the ZipSigner app?
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Any joy?

I have tried a modifying a couple of xml's but i just get hang up's and then it closes. I think it's coded into the smali, i had a little rummage last week but i don't know enough about it to start editing.:(

Did you delete the META-INF before signing and un-install the old version of candy crush?

I've just to install both the edited version and the original version after signing with my tool from the OP and both install and run fine.
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
OK since I couldn't get the apk from post 39 to work for me, I went back to the op, since you added all the new stuff. I did both the extra lives edit & the extra moves edit (on levels 83 through - I don't remember - end of episode 10, I think). And yes, I did delete META-INF before signing, then uninstall old CC before installing hacked version - all the same steps as before. I get the same result - the extra lives edit DOES work but the extra moves edit does not. The levels where I changed the # of moves has the same # of moves as before. Not the end of the world - I know ... I just wish I could figure out what I'm doing wrong ...
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Only thing i can suggest is make sure you are not inserting any extra characters like a space, or deleting any characters. It worked first time me, even changing the score target:
[Android Apps and Games] lukepev:
i am already up to level 33,

is there any way to keep my level and use this hack?

i did the time cheat and i have 3389 minutes until lives.

as i understand it i will have to start at 1 again?

can anyone calrify please?
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Read the OP.
[Android Apps and Games] lukepev:
i did read the OP, have just done so again.

am i missing something because i cant see any mention of keeping your current level progress.

As i understand when i do the save process i am saving the hacked save data therefore that data does not include my level 33 progress as that is overwritten when installing the hacked version.

and...if i restore my level 33 progresss which i backed up to over the hacked data then the hacked data containing 1000 lives will be overwritten?
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Save your game data.

Un-install app.

Install hacked apk.

Open and exit app

Restore data.

***You now have 1000 lives at level 33***.

To regain Facebook sync, upgrade aqnd buy power up's:

Complete a level using hacked app.

Save data.

Un-install hacked app.

Install original.

Open and exit app

Restore saved data

***You now have 1000 lives and original app installed***
[Android Apps and Games] lukepev:
thank you for clearing that up!

it turns out despite following your instructions because i had advanced the game a month, even after restoring the saved data with my level 33.

the lives went to 0 and still said 3398 minutes until next life.

so i had to put date forward a month to get rid of the minutes.

After that i followed your steps and it worked, does the hacked apk also stop the adding of minutes if date has been moved?
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
Would it have anything to do with not playing that level while having the hacked version installed? Like I am changing the # of moves on level 85. So when I open the hacked install, do I have to sync to FB and go into level 85 in order to have the "# of moves" hack saved in my restore data?

What I'm doing now is:

* change # of moves on level 85, delete META-INF, resign apk

* uninstall old version, install hacked version

* play level 1 on hacked version (no FB sync)

* copy data folder

* uninstall hacked program, install real version

* play level 1 (no FB sync)

* restore dat/bak files

* open & sync to FB to get back to level 85 - this is where I see that my "# of moves" hack did not work.
[Android Apps and Games] agusv:
Haha, fun! I'll give this a try.
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:

Read this before asking

Rules

Search the thread and the F.A.Q. below before posting.

If your question HAS been answered but your unsure, quote the answer in your post or it will be ignored and reported for deletion.

When asking a question include as much information as you can. DO NOT POST "I installed xxx.apk but it wont work, help me please". It will be ignored and reported for deletion.

If you want to post apks with mods that I haven't covered in the OP, then post a guide with it and I will link back to your post from #2.

When you link apk's, include install instructions with them. Again i will link to your post from #2.

If you want to request a slightly modified apk then do so privately to keep the thread clean. Don't be offended if they say no, some mods are time consuming.

F.A.Q.

Q. "Do i need root?".

A. Only if you want to bypass syncing with Facebook and manually save and restore your save_*.dat.

Q ."Will i lose my progress?".

A. No, just sign into Facebook through Candy Crush to sync your progress(save/restore).

Q. "Can i sync with Facebook after using the hacked apk?"

A. Yes. To sync with Facebook you need to remove all Facebook data before installing and sign in through Candy Crush.This includes wiping data from settings>apps and uninstalling the Facebook app.

Q. "Can i hack the boosters?"

A. Probably, but i don't know how...or maybe i do and I'm not telling ;)

Q. "Will editing the moves apply to all levels?"

A. No, only the level you have edited.

Q. "I have no moves left"

A. Repeat the steps in the OP for another 1000 lives (or edit "tweakdata.prop" to suit).

Q. "Why do i need to sync with Facebook?"

A. To save/restore your current progress.

Q. Can i save/restore data without syncing with "Facebook"

A. Yes. You need a rooted device do one of the following:

Goto "data/data/com.king.candycrushsaga/app_storage/" and copy "save_***.dat" and "save_***.bak" somewhere safe to restore after installing a different version.

Or

Use an app like Titanium backup to "backup" the app. Then select "restore">"data only" to restore your progress.

Q. "The extra moves hack isn't working"

A. When using the extra moves or score targets hack, you must use the

hacked

apk as this contains the edited xml's.

After you have

completed the level you hacked

you can re-install the original Candy Crush. Remember to sync before un-installing the hacked version.

Q. "Can i buy boosters and update the app?"

A. Yes. You need to re-install the original as it depends on the signature. Remember to sync/backup before un-installing the hacked version.

Q. "I cant connect to Facebook".

A. Remove

ALL

Facebook data from your device before installing the hacked version. This includes wiping data from settings>apps and uninstalling the Facebook app.

Q. "I am stuck, it's asking for tickets".

A. Download and install the apk from OP labeled "Hacked Candy Crush 1000 lives and unlocked to level 203"

work in progress
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
OK I know I'm probably missing something very simple here, but how am I to complete level 85 without playing levels 1 - 84 all over again? And the only way to get it to recognize that I've cleared those levels is w/FB sync, but the hacked version won't FB sync.
[Android Apps and Games] maggel:
Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

First if all my favebook synced game has save games with a 9 digit number instead of 0 like "save_135678356.bak" for both files.

Second how come when you restore your saved progress to the hacked game it does NOT overwrite the extra lives but when you restore the hacked saved progress to the original it does?

For me its not working. I have even tryied renaming the save game to save_0 without any change.

Although I get the extra lives I have to start from level 1.

Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

Just use freedom and buy power ups and extra lifes. :-/ simple and easy and a lot quicker. And free ;)
[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
idk what that is ... tell me more!
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
It doesn't matter what number it's called just make sure when you restore there are no other save_data files besides the files you copied.

So sync with Facebook to save your progress to your device as described in the OP.

It's not rocket science:

Sync with Facebook, copy "save_data".THIS WILL SAVE FACEBOOK PROGRESS TO YOUR DEVICE.

Install hacked apk and open.

Restore "save_data".FACEBOOK PROGRESS RESTORED.

Complete the level you hacked.

Copy "save_data".

Restore original and open app

Restore "save_data".

Tibu is good for candy crush. Keep sending ppl lives so they resend you if they kinda enough.

I had 25 lives off ppl that i been collecting.

Backup with titanium backup and restore once run outta lives. Done all 215 levels this way and awaiting new update.

[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
That's because your looking in sdcard/data. You need to look in data/

@Inshakhan, I meant completing the hacked level isn't rocket science.

I'll have to look into our at the weekend as I haven't had any problems, maybe I'm just lucky.

Edit: try this for me,

Before you start the steps, with the original installed, go to the app_storage folder and delete your save_data, then sync with Facebook. Follow the steps as normal

If that doesn't work try it the above and include your social_data, thanks.

After i try this method got error to login FB. i found new easy way to mod the app...

i got apk file one modded level and other 1 original. the modded i make all the level movement to 80.

to increase ur score or the time bomb candy also can modded with gamecih
[Android Apps and Games] synetics2k:
down below link..

MOD Edit: Link Removed

all level movement modded to 80.

after download extract and you will get a folder call "levels"

1. Using a file explorer with data permissions(e.g. root explorer) navigate on your device to "data/app" and select,copy and save "com.king.candycrushsaga.apk" to somewhere suitable

)=

2. Transfer "com.king.candycrushsaga.apk" to a suitable place on your pc.

3. Using 7zip, open "com.king.candycrushsaga.apk" as archive and navigate to "com.king.candycrushsaga\assets\res\

you will see folder "levels". delete it.

4. then drag the modded level folder and put inside "com.king.candycrushsaga\assets\res\

5. close the archive.

6. now copy "com.king.candycrushsaga.apk" from pc to phone.

7. move to "com.king.candycrushsaga .apk" to "data/app" . It ask to overwrite. yes do it. ( Before overwrite make backup the original one.)

now u can open cc can play the with 80 movement. in-case some level need lower movement to complete. just overwrite again the original to play with standard.
[Android Apps and Games] funkyblue04:
Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

Could you upload the fixed apk? Thanks. Really want extra moves.
[Android Apps and Games] funkyblue04:
OK Worked it out.

All I can say is this game is a money maker without hacks. They make it pretty much impossible to finish levels without needing to buy extra moves.
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
Without a doubt, especially buying tickets to advance, your basically buying extra levels.

I created an apk with double moves and time limit on all levels and was going to upload, but i've decided not to as it's cheating the game and takes away the charm. The lives hack is just exploiting, where as changing moves/time is cheating and i'm not a cheat so sorry.:(

If anyone wants to share an apk with modified moves/time then feel free to. Have a nice day.:good:
[Android Apps and Games] funkyblue04:
Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

It's not cheating. The game is designed to be addictive then suck people in to buy things to progress. Deserves to be hacked IMO.

I have hacked my candy crush to have 1000 lives.

There is a new version of candy crush 1.7 which I updated to.

I'm wondering whether it might detect that i have 1000 lives if i sync with Facebook?

Can anyone confirm?

the score, live and the candy with number like in pic "red can 7" also can edit with gamecih

1. open the Gamecih app after that open ccs apps. go to main and click play. see how much live u have. if let say 5, then scan and put input number as 5. the result will be a lot.

2. then go to ccs play a level (no need to play till end) and back to main u will left 4 live. again scan put input as 4. then result will be more then 10 or 20

play again and back to main. now scan again. put 3. now the result may be 4 or less. just change it to 1000 or as many u wan

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------

this is modded apk ccs (do not install) this file for replace the original apps in data/app (before paste this file make backup ur original file)

MOD Edit: Link Removed

1. u must install the ccs from market. if already install just ignore this step.

2. after download this file. put in data/app. it will ask to overwrite just click yes. (do not install this file. )

3. then run ccs.

u will see modded ccs with all the level movement 80
[Android Apps and Games] dully79:
I agree but it spoils the fun editing all the moves, why even bother playing it?

Just un-install and say youve completed it, and save yourself a lot of time seeing as it wont present any sort of challenge. It's like camping in COD, why bother.:confused:

data/data/

Not everybody has access to titanium backup. I do have tb, first app i ever bought with root explorer when i rooted my HTC Hero on the day of purchase back in 2010... anyway im getting off the subject. I'm sure there are many methods to hack candy crush, this is just one and I've tried to make the guide as universal as possible.

If you sync with Facebook it will save(copy) your progress from your device. You will only have 5 lives if you play on Facebook but you will have 1000 on your device.
[Android Apps and Games] mcchazo:
If you are rooted and still can't get this to work, this is what I did for extra moves

1) Download/Open Titanium Backup and backup Candy Crush and then uninstall Candy crush

2) Download the APK from the OP with the 1000 Lives on your computer

3) Open with winrar (what I used, sounds like 7zip is fine) ( Do the following Edits from the archive, do not unzip this)

4) DELETE the META-INF Folder

5) Go to \assets\res\levels

6) Open each level you want changed and add however many moves to movelimit. example: "moveLimit":30 changed to "moveLimit":45 (or timelimit)

7) After you are done changing your move/time limits move this file to your sdcard or wherever on your phone

8) Download Zipsigner from the marketplace on your phone

9) Chose the file you moved as the "In" and it will auto save the signed version at the same location

10) Using a file browser like Root Explorer, path to this location and install the signed version

11) Open Titanium Backup and click restore on candy crush ( ONLY RESTORE THE DATA)

Enjoy 1000+ Lives and whatever amount of moves you added - This will sync with facebook if you correctly only restore data

If people really want an already edited APK I can upload the one after I fully add all my move edits (It will be 1000+ lives and +15 extra moves/+30 seconds on each level only. Figured instructions are more trusted than just tossing up an APK.

From what I understand this method will only work rooted with titanium due to the fact if you do not restore data, the game is unable to sync with facebook, I don't know if the method in OP's method works around that, I couldn't really follow what it does.

A Thank you to all the previous posters, I really just mixed together what other people mentioned and finally got it to work. Hope these instructions are a bit more clear.
