I'm new to the forum, still trying to get my bearings on where exactly to post.
I have only played on Wii U, so never registered any codes. I just downloaded Lost Islands on my android phone and some of my codes say they have redeemed too many times. Is there a way to "reset" the web code so I can use it?

Some of the problem characters I know have never had their codes used because I bought them and I'm the only one who has ever used them.
Some of the problem characters are secondhand, so the code may have been used before, can it only be used once?

It can be used up to five times each. I don't think you can reset the code.

You can eventually get them by "spinning" for them, which costs gold. I think you also get a few spins as you hit certain kingdom levels. Finally, you can buy them for gems in-game, but I would not recommend this as there are much better things to spend gems on early in the game.

Nope - they removed the spin every 5th level when they added the spin for gold. Not good for lower level players, but great once you get to high levels and have lots of extra gold.

Can you just go into airplane mode before trying to code?

I'm pretty sure you need to be connected to enter a code, similar to making a purchase.

If you want to buy the bluetooth mobile portal, either separately used from ebay or retail with the packaged skylanders, you can import any character, even ones that are used more than 5 times. It also avoids having to type in the codes. Buying at retail gives you free copies of Lost Islands and Battlegrounds, but of course you already bought Lost Islands.

Lost Islands is free.

I think he is on Android. I thought the portal didn't work on Andriod? Or am I mistaken?

Back when you could only use one code a piece, I believe that if you didn't have an Activate account, you could use them multiple times as it didn't connect to Activate to check. But if you already created an Activate account, then you probably don't want to start over. If the codes you are using are definitely new, I would try contacting support about it. Someone, here, may know how to best do that.

I don't remember getting any spins for gold. Do they take that away if you have all of the skylanders?

You get one spin for gold for 2500 when you reach a certain kingdom level. I had all the skylanders I could get, so I got Jade Fire Kraken for this spin (the only choice). After Wind-up was added, I spun again for 2,500,000 (the cost of all future spins) and won him as he was the only choice.

After you have won everything you can win, it says 'locked' and you have to wait for new skylanders to be introduced.

After getting actual wind up today (with Sheep Wreck Island), I did not seem to get my 2,500,000 back, not that I care that much.

The spin screen is what you see when you click on the portal icon at the top of the screen (it shows all the skylanders in a big grid, and the elements along the left side), with the spin button at the bottom (or Locked)

Yea, no money back for spun skylanders, only gems back for purchased ones. You just get a little energy for spun ones. I miss the little crowns.

None of the Android versions support the bluetooth portal.

That is too bad.

You could find a friend with an iOS device, install lost islands, sync to your activate account, import everything with the bluetooth portal, then save to cloud, then load it on your android device, but that may be getting too complicated. Or you could just buy an iPad air and be done with android smilie

The highest spin cost is 5,000,000 gold, which probably kicks in after you spin a certain number of times or reach a certain level. I can't remember if the spin cost hinges on your level or how many skylanders you've spun for. Does somebody remember? This may be a reason to avoid leveling up your kingdom if you have a lot of skylanders to spin for.

It definitely is not number of spins. Your first spin is always cheap. After that it jumps based on level and/or number of Skylanders. My second spin was 5 million. I only started spinning recently. My first spin to get Jade Fire Kraken, second for Quickdraw. So it does not s ale based on number of spins.

I like how they finally added the ability to get the web codes from the figure in Swap Force, but I wish there was a way to get them on magic items. I got all the giant sidekicks and gave them to my son for Christmas. I didn't get a chance to put in the codes and now Barkley's seems to be missing. My wife put them all on her phone and had left the codes on our computer desk. I later found 2 of them lying on the floor (I had put Eye Small in a long time ago as I got him separately from the other 3), but Barkley's was missing. I'm sure it's somewhere, but I wish I could just get it off the figure, somehow.
