Since the update the game asks for my age and then nothing happens. I would love to be able to play so that I can finnish the Briliant event! I have a Samsung account if that makes any diffrence...
Updated the game and no updates are appearing other than instead of professions it is titled "Training" and now a new bug appears where the brilliant registries are out of order.
The update for me didn't produce any additional results.
Also this:
Fixed an issue causing a ‘Connection Lost’ pop up notification after loading into the app.
I'm not sure what and who exactly fixed it. I basically soft reset the phone. I removed all app data, then I removed all google apps (google, chrome, maps, etc) and HPWU, then reinstalled them to the latest version. A few phone restarts and a 6 hours sleep later the login did work.
On my device/account, the long delay before entering a Fortress chamber is completely gone since this update. I expected to see this in the 'fixed bugs' but apparently some people are still affected? On my Nokia 9.2/Android One it's gone, at least. :)
I haven't been given the option to download 2.14 yet. I got the notification to download essential assets in-game, which I did, but the app store hasn't given me the option to download 2.14. Is this being rolled out slowly? I'm in the U.S. on an iPhone XR.
Items I noticed that aren't called out... Still can only have static images in the Passport and unable to see Specializations details popup in Profession. Been playing since launch.
Love the game... but it's definitely quirky with my Samsung Galaxy Note 9.
Threat levels seem to have just jumped up. Traces that were low this morning are now severe! What a time to break the game, right in the middle of an event!
Please put changes in the game IN BETWEEN special events! Not during, not just before. This Brillient event ends on a Tuesday. Next event will start on a Friday. That would give people 3 days to work out the glitches. And for the developers to fix their blunders.
Hello Lola, I am a member of the largest German HPWU community and maintain a ranking list for players. After the update, however, you can no longer compare the professional levels directly, as they have different scores in the same level. there is certainly a comparison table of the old levels with the new point system. you could provide us with this table so that we can continue to maintain the ranking list. best regards from Icefalke / Dieter
Any time I start the game while a potion is complete, when I touch a foundable trace on the map, I'm taken to the potion screen and am stuck there no matter what I do.
Buffering at random times since the update this morning. Couldn't finish (or even start) a challenge because every time I would click on a foe, it would buffer and I'd have to reset the app. It would bring me back to the chamber, but clicking on any foe just went to buffer mode. It also has buffered some map foundables, but not all of them.
I'm not sure if this is the right thread, that said:
After the new July 16, 2020 update I have been unable to access the game. When I click on Icon game won't load and I get the error message that says network connection lost, check wifi or mobile data. Attached is the screenshot of the error message. I tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling, just in case this was the problem. Still no luck. It has been 2 days since I have been able to play. I am very sad and hope that this problen is solved soon.
@hpwulola What is the "0" for on the friendship page? I see no mention of what it is. There is a lot of speculations. Some have said it must be your friends combat score, but that is way to long of a number to display there. Others have guessed that it is a friendship level. I have sent and received gifts with no incrementing of the number, so if this is the case, it is either disabled or requires several send and receives in order to increment the number.
I also noticed that player level is no longer shown on the friendship page. Why was this removed?
Can we get an official confirmation of what it is?

@Icefalke I think I saw you poat this in another thread yesterday as well. It is worth noting that it is the weekend, sot ehy will probably get back to you on Monday.
Also, these numbers, as far as I am aware, are not the final numbers. There is talk of the actual numbers etc being set once the new SOS training goes live. It might be worth waiting to see what happens.
Lastly, surely the new numbers work better for ranking lists? If you want to rank people, then these numbers offer more nuance.
@Magpie31 The problem with the new combat system ranking is that Professors can inflate their score temporarily, by using potions to trigger their passive skills. That would make it difficult to rank them, unless you enforce a strict no potion rule, when gathering their scores.
Hi. Firstly Thank you for all the work and effort yall have put into continually making HPWU a fun and exciting game. Good timing too coz tbh, it was starting to get kinda stale and boring.
Just an fyi, after the latest update, I noticed that my profession ranking was at a million plus. This morning it's down to 900k plus. I'm not sure what that means but as long as it does NOT adversely affect my gameplay, you can rank me at zero for all I care.
@BenTiger This is absolutely true right now. But Lola has already said that the numbers / score system will be adjusted once the SOS training goes live. I see these as placeholder values and we shall see how the pieces fall into place next week.
I can't log into my game. Yesterday recieving connection error messages every time. I can play all other games just fine. It is only Wizards unite that i am having issues with.
I have not had any of the bugs with the updated everyone is reporting. I'm on a galaxy s8 USA. What I have noticed is my AR turned back on and wont turn back off in challenges. As for the detail button doing nothing I'm assuming that info will be available when the new training rolls out.
Did the Wizard Challenges get boosted as well? I'm a level 34 Auror with a combat level of 776074. Prior to the update I was able to complete Forest Chamber II by myself, now I can barely complete Tower Chamber IV by myself. So, how all of a sudden do I drop being able to complete Wizard Challenges by myself by 3 levels?
@BenTiger so there is pretty decent speculation on the big discord that the zero is going to be our SOS task level. I think we really just have to wait and see.
My daughter has an issue with connection lost during login. She has rebooted, cleared cache, uninstalled/reinstalled. She's desperately trying to finish the events to get her books. She's using a galaxy s10 running Android 9. Our internet is working fine. I'm with her on my Galaxy s10+ and having no connection issues.
Since last month I joined the game I just reached level 30 yesterday and I'm Auror 12.
Used to be.
Now I'm auror 486 482, if you know what I mean 🤣
I didn't face the sticker rebalance but was happy to get compensation for this.
Along with all updates connected to COVID19 - I guess it was the best time to join the game ;)
Sorry for long intro, I just wanted to show the point where I look from.
I know the game is much more better than it used to be last year. Overall its much more progressive and innovative vs ingress or pokemon go, but here is some issues i would like to rise and address:
I see there is a lack of proper balance, a lot of features are not really connected, it gives a feeling the game is not completely ready to be launched globally.
- spell cast quality is not really affects the catchment rate- gives more stress and frustration than challenges to reach masterfull;
- spell energy capacity is way to small compared to reality. It's extremely hard to catch things at low leve ant the progress is not so sweetl. Capacity is not enougth to play 30 min with tonic which you might expect to do in the evening at home. I ve spend up to 40 energy to just 1 spoofing evil to catch last week at level 29.
- we still cant cancel the potion brewing. Last time during 1 day event I already had 4 baruffio (4×12h brewing time) in slots so absolutely could not utilize boosted Trace detection brewing time.
- cancelation of portmantaue is also quite usefull.
I think newly introduced field skills partially addressed to these issues above but not sure if they really solve it.
- why we have so many runes' levels if we use mostly 2 of them?
- wizards bus is amazing but it kills the main asset of the game - real world towers. Why we need them now if the bus is here? Now it's just looks unbalanced just as unlimited remote raids would be in pogo.
- friendship... better than nothing, but could we have more? motivation to progress in friendship level? We used to see the person's level before - it helped to see if he is a low level with poor energy capacity and I could send him energy gift.
Dear Niantic, if you are reading this, do you now people gets really angry receiving anything but runes?)
- some people say you need friends to get bonus exp in tower battle! Really but did you know it's just 45*4=180 exp additionally out of 2300 exp in dark5? Feels useless.
- avatar page with all the filter and stickers is quite fun but do we really care of this? Anyone posted it to Facebook or else? I guess no. It would be much better to focus your efforts, Niantic, into something more feasible and customized outfit of the character. Even simple coloured would change a lot!
- new scores of the characters so useless. Why you create complicated score if it's just reflects the progress in profession? Why I have to look at these thousands if a lot of people are maxed out at their 999737 score etc..? Just show the rank as it was or number of lessons itself. No need to create ne scales.
- Tower battles.
We need a proper team and invite system. Beacon is a bug, not a feature. Play_same_team_again_button would be great.
Like/dislike feedback system between players would be great.
- event drop design, I hear a lot of complaints people cant complete event challenges due to lack of spawn or too huge amounts needed (like 30 executioners last time).

Anyway, traces difficulty seems increase isnt it?
At least increase 1 level higher?

Still not fixed.....

Update: I can log in now with the google account.
I'm not sure what and who exactly fixed it. I basically soft reset the phone. I removed all app data, then I removed all google apps (google, chrome, maps, etc) and HPWU, then reinstalled them to the latest version. A few phone restarts and a 6 hours sleep later the login did work.

Can anyone tell whether it’s safe to update now?
It's safe to update?
I have my 5 DADA books now. Will I lost them if I update?
I haven't been given the option to download 2.14 yet. I got the notification to download essential assets in-game, which I did, but the app store hasn't given me the option to download 2.14. Is this being rolled out slowly? I'm in the U.S. on an iPhone XR.
@Bellastarora the Brilliant move appears to be because a second part to the Forbidden Forest (first ever Brilliant event) is scheduled.

Button "Details" on specialization doesn't work. When I click on it I see only blinking and nothing happens. Does anybody else have this problem?

Hello Wizards!
I'm rather new HPWU player.
