Solution:
1. Start the game with Internet turned OFF
Important thing is to turn the Internet off BEFORE you click on the game icon
2. Once in the game, your Arena and Penny should be phased off, inaccessible
3. Enter the Store, Store should be working without internet. Exit store. You should be seeing Adventure, Penny and Arena icons
4. Thus, while in the game, enable Internet. Enter the Store again. It should be up to date and working
However, upon entering the Store once while Internet is on, the next time I return to it it gets locked again by Restoring Purchases again.
So I must go thru the cycle I described above in order to access it again.
Hope it helps.
Yes, this is what I need to do too. One minor change that can save a step: if you restore the Internet connection while you're in the Store, the Store will become accessible within a few seconds. No need to leave the store and come back. So total steps for me:
1. Be sure PVZ2 is not runninng (close it if it is)
2. Turn off Internet (I do this by turning on airplane mode)
3. Start PVZ2
4. Go to the Store
5. Turn Internet back on (I turn off airplane mode)
6. Wait a few seconds and Store will start working (once you leave the store, you may or may not be able to get back in if you try immediately, but after several minutes, you definitely can't get back in)
Often (not sure if this always works), you can also do this, which is ever faster and doesn't require disabling the Internet:
1. Be sure PVZ2 is not runninng (close it if it is)
2. Start PVZ2 with Internet access on
3. BEFORE hitting Play to get into the game, hit the ad button for the featured plant that takes you directly to the store. As long as you haven't yet gotten into the game, the Store is usually working
