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.[/QUOTE]

Would really appreciate an apk with extra moves. I dont have access to a computer right now so that would be an ideal solution foe me. I have used the apk with 1000 lives successfully but would really like the extra moves!
[Android Apps and Games] mcchazo:
If you are rooted, follow these instructions:

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

2) Download and install the APK from MOD Edit: Link Removed.

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

4) ??

5) Enjoy , I only added 10-15 and ~30 seconds time for each level, +1000 lives

Feel free to click thanks if I save your hair from being torn out due to this game.

[Android Apps and Games] inshakhan:
I agree ... I wanted the extra lives hack bc I don't think it's cheating to hack extra lives to get around bugging my FB friends all the time. The extra moves/time hack ... I only wanted the extra moves for the one level that I had been playing over & over & over & just could NOT get past (I think it was level 95) ... heck, even if I had purchased power-ups, I could not have passed that level w/out the extra moves. I ended up hacking it to 200 moves & it ended up taking me around 175 moves to pass it! So I am very thankful to you for coming up w/the hack & I agree that there's no challenge to the game if it's used to just fly through every level.

You could try moving them back. I did try moving them all to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 e.t.c. but the app just hung, that was a while ago and i haven't bothered with it since my girlfriend just asks for tickets.

hi mcchazo:

when i ran the cc game with your modded apk file. i only saw 1000 lives... what about the other hacked stuffs like extra moves/time etc...

how can i activate them or i wont see it in all stages? i was at level 99 and everything looked original when i played that stage? the no of moves still same.

i tried to mod the apk file as well as downloaded other people file and replaced it in phone app folder. none of these methods worked for me.

either the apk can't install ... nor the game couldn't run after the file was replaced.

the only thing that worked for me was your signed apk file. good work... :silly:

when u have time ... could you make another apk file with more great stuffs? :D thanks a million. like extra times and moves etc...
[Android Apps and Games] Honchay:
I'm using your modded/signed apk! It saved me from stuck levels but It would be great if you add a little more moves! Not 10-15, maybe 20 and 1 min for that levels with TimeLimit, hehe Thats what I do to the "levels" folder but my modded apk doesn't work :(
[Android Apps and Games] hapse:
okay so i was able to skip the level 36 ticket stuff by editing the com.king.candycrushsaga-1.apk\assets\res\collaboration_locks.xml but everytime i complete a level now the game shuts down so i have to open it again (it remembers i completed the level) anyone know a fix?

Thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] mcchazo:
Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

All the levels have at least ten extra moves and thirty seconds on timed levels I wasn't looking to completely kill the challenge otherwise there is no reason to bother with the game. I'll look to uploading one with +80 moves someone else edited If I can remember where it was and sign it for installing. Otherwise I don't really have the time to go through every single level again.

Level 245 tested ok :good:

---------- Post added at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 AM ----------

Not sure if it's ok to post stuff that circumvents in-app purchases here :confused: but here goes...

For those looking for unlocked boosters, charms etc., it seems the save.dat is exactly the same for Android/iOS versions and there's a hacked save_0.dat for the iOS version floating around :good:

Assuming you have root, obtain it, put in \data\data\com.king.candycrushsaga\app_storage and your good to go :laugh:

999999999 Lives

999999999 Lollipop Hammer

Charm Of Life Unlocked

Charm Of Stripes Unlocked

Charm Of Frozen Time Unlocked

Striped & Wrapped Booster Unlocked

Lucky Candy Booster or Colour Bomb Unlocked

Jelly Fish Booster Unlocked

:cool:

Also level skip is possible by hacking fake high scores / star ratings into the save.dat for each level up to the one you want :victory:

I made a apk/dat combination with all the above, every level unlocked and all ticket locks removed!

There's still some stuff locked, coconut wheel etc. if anyone fancies taking it on :cowboy:
[Android Apps and Games] Honchay:
I think if you do that, you gonna broke the sync with facebook. Because you are replacing the save_0.dat, be advised if you are worry about your friends score!

Hi

It worked at first , I altered 20 levels but now when I try to do the same thing the game loads for a few seconds and then automatically exits.

I tried altering another 15 levels.

Am i doing something wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] mcchazo:
Here is an apk with all of the previous changes and +90 or so moves on bombs. I may have missed some bomb levels, as I play through them I'll fix them if it becomes a problem.

MOD Edit: Link Removed

Enjoy

Here is an apk with 1000+ lives and +80 moves (not tested) MOD Edit: Link Removed

These are the ONLY changes

I would suggest using the first apk for levels with the bombs, you should only need the 10-15 extra moves as it is, easily makes up for not paying 400 $ for the extra bonus'.

Enjoy
[Android Apps and Games] Honchay:
Thanks mcchazo!

The first APK with the bombs, I saw no changes, I had no bombs. I need to select it before start a level, right? I choose +bomb and it takes me to playstore to pay for it.

Tested with restored only data with titanium and without restoring any data.

The other with 80 moves works perfectly.

:)
[Android Apps and Games] mcchazo:
Re: [How to] Hack Candy Crush for extra lives and moves

No. The bombs edited are blocks that blow up and you lose in later levels ~90.

None of these I posted will give power ups

Ok, for the people stuck at the "get 3 friends on Facebook to send you tickets" crap needed to progress to certain levels:

At the same time as doing the "Extra Lives (D.I.Y method)" step in the OP, edit \assets\res\collaboration_locks.xml to:

<Locks>
<!-- note: must be declared in the order they appear on the map -->
<Lock lockedLevel="246"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="247"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="248"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="249"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="250"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="251"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="252"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="253"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="254"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="255"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="256"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="257"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="258"/>
<Lock lockedLevel="259"/>
<!-- under construction -->
</Locks>

Then re-zip, sign, reinstall etc. as per OP.

This pushes all the "ticket locks" past the last level, meaning you can play upto and including the last level (245) without being hassled for tickets :good:

I have no idea if this or anything in the OP kills Facebook sync (I don't use it) but the whole point of the above is to remove the locks so that you don't HAVE to sync to progress in the game :laugh:

Use zipsigner from app market or try a different one than in OP for computer. The one listed in op does not seem to work at all.

That's strange seeing as the one in the OP has been downloaded over 5000 times and hardly anyone has has mentioned it.

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

One easy way to have more moves is using haxplorer or game guardian, I like haxplorer. You have to be rooted for those apps to work. Load up either one of those programs and open candy crush. Load up a level and make 1 move. Now open the search for haxplorer and search for 1. Go back to candy crush and do another move, now search for 2 in haxplorer. Keep doing this until haxplorer has 1 value showing. Change this value to 0 and it resets your move counter back to the value it was at the beginning of the level. You can't change the time in levels however. You can also use this method for your number of lives. Search the number of lives you have, enter a game and quit. Search for your lives bow which will be 1 less. Keep doing this until you find the number of lives you have, and then modify your life counter to what you want. If anyone needs a more in depth tutorial I will try to explain it easier.
