Heres exactly what I did (That didnt work). 1.Download both files (apk and obb) 2.Installed apk but did not open it. 3.Made a folder called com.ea.game.pvz2_na (successful since the pvz 2 logo appeared at that folder) 4.Pasted the obb in there

Result: DOWNLOAD FINISHED 0 MB / O MB *Flashes a black screen again and again*

What did I do wrong?? ;-; Try starting the game without internet. Also where did you create the folder? I created it in the proper place. Andriod > OBB Do I need to download the official pvz2? Like in google play?

If yes, I tried a different method

1.Downloaded official Pvz2 2. Played for a while in there 3.Installed the APk but did not open it yet 4.Put the obb in the folder (Didnt have to make a new one since there was already one there that the official pvz2 made itself) 5. Played without wifi and with wifi, restarting the app each time I test it.

Result: Fail, no sign of the 5.7 update. Take note: When I tried this I deleted the previous folder and apk so I can do it all again. Also, when I checked the files there were two obb's there, two of the same exact obb. One for the official and the source of the other one. But still, I ignored that and just put the obb (5.7) there. Won't work. The reason you are seeing two obb files is because one is ROW and the other is NA. You need repsective folders for those two obbs. Putting both in the same folder won't do anything for the NA version (which is the beta you have). If both were NA (if you are in an NA region) that means the official version is creating conflicts with the beta version since it is in beta. This is the usual route to take:

1. Download apk and obb

2. Go to Android and create a folder called obb. If it is already created, go into that and create another folder called com.ea.game.pvz2_na (since your version is NA) and put the obb file there without renaming it or extracting it in any way.

3. Install apk

4. Start game without internet.

At this point it worked for me. But since the version was in beta it had a habit of crashing. However it never showed black screens for me. If you did all the methods above, it should work. So im assuming you dont download the official pvz2 in google play before you do these steps. Ok then. Thx Why would you? The official version on Google Play is an older version compared to the version you have & it is a different version (ROW) than what you are trying to install (NA).

When you are properly done, you will see that you have two different PvZ 2 games on your device; one for ROW and the other for NA. The only way they will merge if you are already an NA user and you are trying to install another NA version OR if you are ROW and you are trying to install another ROW version. Then the game will give you the option to manually update the version thus replacing your old version.
