"?" - image problems Return to Guide Discussion

[K'tilqr(Mrs.MarkB)]

There used to be two threads on fixing this problem - one for android, one for iOS. They were both stickied, but I can't find them. it is possible they were in the old "Tech Support" forum. I would like to see the instructions for clearing this problem held somewhere where they can be easily accessed as the number of ppl suffering seems to be going up again. I notice that this problem comes and goes but I have had about 15 ppl ask for help in the past week.

that is the thread! but it's in the old tech support. and it is locked! please can it be moved into Gen Discussion? or Guide? or somewhere (ANYWHERE!) and stickied!

We could probably add something in-game in the Settings somewhere to try to resolve the problem

there was a similar thread on how to fix the problem when it occurred on Apple devices. could that be resurrected too?

That is an awesome idea. A button in settings that would delete the old pk folder and restart pk app. Maybe even clear cache button or incorporate the two.

Just "reload image folder"?

And now such an option exists, at least for Android. Huzzah for the Devs. Android is where I had the problem; any question marks I saw in iOS were very short-lived.

I think things are much better. At my home wireless, I can see everything, but during the day I get all question marks. I think this is because the phreaks who control my wireless during the day are blocking the web site, which means I can't view other people's profiles, and by extension, the bitmaps.

This is the only fix ever posted for iDevices

If anyone knows a better one, please post here. After over 2 weeks of "?" marks on odd items, I gave in and reinstalled yesterday. That made matters worse, but after "update content" they are still gradually loading - 12 hours later on fast broadband wifi!

Days after gardening update i still had question marks on some new items. Maybe it would be a lot better if images would be included in app when you download it from store.

Never seen such problems in any other mobile game. Clearing images folder and reinstall apps takes also days until all marks are gone. Very annoying but this is pk rofl
