Thanks for the b/d wishes...I have a few moments before the party starts! :-)

I'm assuming you're running on Android and you don't have root access (with root access you could extract the backup Friends_List.xml after the Helium restore but before you boot the game/connect to server).

The Helium backup should still contain your old Friends_List.xml but it takes a bit of effort to extract from the com.g5e.secretsociety.ab. You'll need to run two linux commands (ab2tar_cut  &   ab2tar_corr ....within a Cygwin session in Windows works) ...I found the details online by Googling "Helium backup extraction". However, if all that means nothing, I would be willing to do the extraction for you if you can get the Helium backup file to me. Your original FL would contain the necessary code ids for me to reconnect you with all the friends.

Failing that, if you have their in-game names I may be able to find some of them amongst everybody else's FLs but that's not 100% unless they have particularly unique names and quite a few friends themselves.

If the backup file isn't too big (app data only) it might be acceptable as an attachmnet to neo34@gmx.co.uk, otherwise we'll need something like a Dropbox solution.
