Help/Support CoC Private Server Not Working

[RiG 22 iPad Mini Retina 10.3.1]

Hello! I'm on a iPad Mini 2, iOS 8.4.0, Jailbroken.

My problem is I edit the host file to connect to the CoC server, and when I load up CoC it loads up the original server. Now, is it that CoC server aren't working with this latest version? Do I need to downgrade to an older version? Or just wait for a new server update? Thank you for reading/helping.

Thx for your help. Couldn't get it to work. Guess I'll just wait for it to update.

Ok well lets try this. Go to /etc then open the file called 'hosts'. It should look something like this: 

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1       localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost

Heres what it should look like when you put the server in, this is also the server  I use:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1       localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost

5.196.242.73 game.clashofclans.com

After this, reboot your iDevice. If it still doesn't work, then they patched something

If they are down in general, CoC should be stuck on loading, not kicking you to the main server

Okay. Thanks.

@BenJ Looks like something was patched. Oh well. Thanks for trying to help.

@BenJ if there's nothing else left, thanks for helping anyways.

My BF and I tried our private server. It doesn't work, I guess that because of new "update" so yeah
