Registered Google+ Account on new device & now can't transfer old game to new device
Greetings All,
I've been playing Clash of the Clans on my old Android device for a while and have amassed some great progress. Now I have a new Android device and wanted to transfer the progress from my old device to my new. What I did was install Clash of the Clans on my new device, went through the tutorial, then went into settings to LINK my devices and it ask me to log into my Google+ account to complete the action. Well, nothing happened on my new device, I was still at the same progress after the tutorial. I went into my old device under settings to LINK my devices and I got a warning that I was about to overwrite my progress with my new account, from my new device. I've logged into my Google+ account to delete the Clash of Clans app registration and data, I've uninstalled Clash of Clans from my new device and reinstalled with no success. The app data keeps coming back to my Google+ account and I continue to get the warning on my old device, that I can't logon without overwriting my progress with my new account data, which is just past the tutorial. There seems to be some residual data associated with my Google+ registration in ethernet land, that I can't find or get rid of. Therefor, I can't register my old device with my current game progress, so I can transfer it to my new device. Any ideas?
somebody dumb this down for me please

I've been trying to do this all day & something has to be missing from these steps - at some point after step 1, don't you have to go into your google+ settings and delete the game from your google+ apps?
I just don't see how logging into a different device with different information gets the account from one device to the other.
Game forever linked to 2(?) devices?
I have a similar problem. If you link a game created in Android to an iPad - will both devices be blocked for CoC forever? Or can you overwrite the Android with another one (created on a different device and with a different Google+ account) - of course without killing the first game on the iPad?
Transfer/Link/Overwrite/Something
I believe I am having the same dilemma as everyone else. I have recently upgraded my Android device and have been trying to transfer/link my COC from my old phone to the new one. However, every time I try to connect COC to Google + sign-in on my old device I receive a, Google Account Alert – Do you want to load Chief reb’s village with TH level 2?
It took quite some time to get my village to where it’s at now. I can’t have my village going through a depression. I can’t believe that there is no way delete, overwrite, or just transfer the village data that I want to keep except to try creating a new Google account and do some juggling from there.
Honestly, I do enjoy playing the game but if I have to start back over or create another account than I'll probably just find another game to play. I have already spent way too much time in looking for a fix for this issue, which has been a very frequent issue with many players as I have observed in my quest for an answer. Fix it please SuperCell...
Overwriting and cancelling COC membership
I totally agree. Overwriting or deleting should not be such an issue. I searched for about a week for an answer to this problem and in every answer led back to creating a new Google + account. This is an extreme inconvenience for people that actually use the account for other things, such as in your case for redeeming credit. Why should we have to create a whole new email account just for a game? I got bored and reluctantly created a new account last night. But I got to thinking, during my research I also found that there is another issue with cancelling your COC account. There was a guy that had deleted his account, he no longer wanted to play or whatever, and he found out that his username and village was still being used by COC. He has tried to contact support and has not been helped yet from what I read. For some reason, it seems like these are intentional blocks for the game to keep heavy user base. I'm not sure what for but why else can you not delete, overwrite, or even cancel your account?
This is future results of your security

xD Having to create a new account for every wrong login make it harder and harder to remember the right account in future.
better way to update and fix it
If supercell really dont want people to overwrite because of accident,why supercell wont create confirmation and let us choose which village we will link it to google,good or bad account(as if bad account was already linked,it should ask wether overwrite or not)like one i saw from respawnable it ask what account i should play,saved or new when i connect with facebook.I really want that and just want the developer to fix this,thank you.
Hey guys, I know I'm late but for the sake of future readers...
Its best to do this on a computer or using opera browser in desktop mode
Go to plus.Google.com/apps
Tap clash of clans so a pencil will appear next to it to the right. Tap this pencil, then tap disconnect, a prompt will appear, if you'd like you can check "delete all activities from Google+" as well. It will say it may take an hour and you will no longer be able to access the account via that email blah blah. Tap disconnect again.
It is INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT to be signed into the account which you will be disconnecting/connecting to a new email otherwise you WILL NOT be able to retrieve it once its disconnected.
After you've disconnected it simply open CoC and you should be prompted to sign in, if you've already added your new gmail account to your phone just click that account and sign in.
Congrats, you've disconnected your clash village from your old gmail and linked it to your new one :)
Enjoy!

Google+ Account Associated with Wrong Village
Okay, so this is my predicament.
I play my village on my I-Phone and have it linked to my android tablet, and my Google+ account.
I had to restore my android tablet to factory settings.
Afterwards I re-installed Clash of Clans, went through the tutorial- and tried to sign into my Google+ account - but it somehow disassociated from my primary village and now is associated with this new Town Hall 2 Village.
The below solution doesn't work because I can't link my primary account to Google+ through my I-phone.
1. Remove the app from google+ account
2. Make a new google+ account
3. Start the game from the new device
4. Link the game from the new device to the new google+ account
5. Disconnect
6. Start the game from the old device
7. Link the game to your main google+ account
8. Disconnect
9. Join the game from the new device
10. Link the game from your main google+ account
11. That's all folks. :-)
I am trying desperately to figure out how to reconnect Clash of Clans to my Android tablet.
Any help would be appreciated.
i forgot which google account i used..
