I can't believe I'm seriously thinking about buying an iphone 5 now. I'm a sad human being.

I did this for like an hour straight Oh, believe me I did. I've tapped that poor thing to death and it still just crashes to the home screen after about 10-15 minutes.

I am willing to help whoever on this. When only a few ask I get to go nuts and yield about 900 donuts (barring a disconnect or phone call). The very least I can do is get the info from you (change your password to something temporary that is easy) log in, beat the harp, log out, and bam you are back in.
You then change password back to whatever and all secure.
I have gotten 7 board people back in so far and it feels good as EA had me out for 3 weeks with no recourse until I brought the fight to one of the VPs in Austin.
I realize the crazy amount of trust this takes and totally get people saying hell no. Like I said, it just feels good helping people get back in and still hook them up with donuts. As my profile pic suggests I am not a fan of EA. Even if they bribe me.

my iPhone 5 has so far seem to beat the harp glitch, yield 800+ donuts, and now I have access in and out. :shock: Damn. I knew I should have got the iPhone 5 - my iPad 3 only netted me a couple of hundred donuts. Drat drat drat! Stupid stingy with RAM Apple.... grrr (yes, it's a cost and battery life issue both so I don't blame them too much for keeping RAM down - I still don't have to like it!)

Repeat from another thread I just posted to: By the way to all those people saying nice things about me helping them it was 100% docno42's findings and me experimenting that lead to the crack in the Harp freeze. I give him sole credit for that find and solution that I am helping other board members get back in with.

I really don't think the device has anything to do with it. I let the harps play on an iPhone 4, iPad 2, and the new iPad for hours yesterday. Still locked out. The iPhone 5, iPad 4 and iPad Mini have double the RAM of previous iPad devices and more still than the iPad 1 - more RAM means more room for the looping bug in EA's code to run before the app runs out of resources and crashes - that's why those with iPhone 5's seem to have more luck getting back in. I consider myself lucky that I got in with my iPad 3 at odd hours in the early morning.

I'm not buying an iPhone 5 just for this damn game! EA needs to program their damn games right! Visit an Apple Store. Download the Tapped Out app on one of the demo iPhone 5's (you can install apps on 'em). Load your Origin account on it and hopefully it will load your Springfield. Once done DELETE the tapped out app off the demo iPhone. If your really paranoid wait until a couple hours before the store closes and then just hang out with that iPhone until the store closes. They wipe 'em every night... "Rent an iPhone for the night" lol...

Repeat from another thread I just posted to: Thanks and your welcome, but I just put two and two together from reading what other people were posting. I'm just glad people are getting back in and getting some donuts for their trouble.

Awesome! My game downloaded an update and.... Still f'ing harps!! Got off cybertron.ca and post here more! LOL! On that note... time to update the avatar. Now who is H1??? On another note... I'm back in!!! I was only rewarded with 130 donuts for my troubles (stupid disconnect), but I am back in and finally able to catch up on my poor neglected town. I just left my iPad (3) running and it eventually connected for me. It took a couple tries, but it eventually worked.

I would have made me try and figure it out a bit first. You are obviously nicer than I am.

Day 5 for me. Scared to think what happens when they start adding Levels 27 and up.
