 Description   

After my app crashed with an iPhone connected to my world, I restarted the app. I could go in my worlds fine but my brother can't join on his iPhone that was connected at the time of the crash.

What I expected to happen was...:
Me and my brother would resume playing together after an app crash on my (server) side.

What actually happened was...:
I could play fine on his worlds, but I showed up as a blank username in the worlds menu on his device and he was unable to join any of my worlds.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Host a LAN server on a nexus 7
2. Join on an iPhone.
3. App crash on nexus 7 side with iPhone connected.
4. Reopen app, rehost any world on the nexus 7
5. IPhone as well as an iPad that was not connected are unable to join any world on the nexus 7.

This also happens on the HTC One. Can see but cannot connect to other local servers and others cannot connect or see the HTC One hosted game.

Multiplayer is activated as well.
