Injustice iOS : Restoring Save Game after a format

You can restore your saved game if you either have iCloud enabled on your iPhone/iPad or if you have taken a backup of the game's Documents folder with iFunBox/iExplorer/a file manager of your choice.

Note: This wont work if you have upgraded to iOS 8.3. Also, games like Injustice : Gods Among Us and Mortal Kombat X will not work smoothly and have lots of issues like crashes and audio dropout. Downgrade to iOS 8.2 and do not upgrade until fixes for these issues are released.

If your call log does not show recent calls after downgrading, follow this guide - http://ash-softworld.blogspot.com/2015/04/iphone-recents-call-history-empty-and.html

The problem I faced was that I had disabled iCloud and the backup restored was too old and none of the characters/achievements I unlocked were in it. So, I tried replacing the PlayerSave.bin in the Documents folder in iPhone with the one I had backed up manually. This didn't work and when I checked the folder again, I could see another filed called PlayerSave_NiceTry.bin. Come on, I was just trying to load my own save game, NetherRealm!

What you can do:

1) Delete the Injustice Data on iCloud by going to "Manage Storage" option in your phone's iCloud Settings.

2) Use task switcher (double tap home button) and exit Injustice completely.

3) Use iFunBox or iExplorer and make a folder called "SAVE" in "Injustice/Documents". Copy the backed up PlayerSave.bin into that folder.

4) Start Injustice, click the Cloud icon on the top right and click confirm. Check if you got your coins and characters back.

5) If that didn't work, go to the Documents folder with iFunBox/iExplorer and delete PlayerSave.bin and PlayerSave_niceTry.bin and repeat steps 3 and 4.
