As of right now, with my recovery efforts, ALL of my BCH is unreachable.. all due to the bitcoin.com wallet update on iOS. Through multiple avenues, I have still not been able to recover anything. I’m really bummed
This happened to me too! On Android. Importing to Electron Cash didn't work, regardless of derivation path or password. Importing to the desktop Bitcoin.com wallet worked eventually.
My Bitcoin.com was updated on Android without any problems. I have 3 wallets all have funds. The difference. One wallet always used the same address before. Now the address is
I think it was because I had a spend PW on the wallet..
I read through that... I’m gonna try the Mac version again... problem with exporting the file to electron cash is... support had me delete the locked wallet on my phone to reimport
So hopefully this can be figured out without access to the old locked wallet...
I thing so. I set no password.
changing.
Strange... I think it has something to do with the fact that my wallet was created on a much older version of the app and with password encryption.
Mine was created in like September or something when I wanted to try out bitcoin.coms wallet. It definitely was set with a PW though.. figured I was being smart by enabling that 🙄
My wallet has no password. That's probably the reason.
And how did you wind up getting it right on the desktop wallet?
Since you have the seed and encryption password, the money should be recoverable, but it was quite a hassle for me. I will not use the Bitcoin.com wallet again.
Could not import: wallet not registered at the wallet service recreate it from “create wallet” using advanced options to set your recovery phrase.
Then I was getting a network error message...
I did it on Windows (after failing to get the Bitcoin.com app working on linux at all). I didn't get the same error message as you.
Loaded the older version onto my PC.. entered the seed + that stupid encryption PW and it literally came right up! Thanks bud!
I did get some strange network error, but I just turned everything off and on again a couple of times and it just worked in the end.
I’m gonna try it again maybe on my PC. I’m so irritated right now. Maybe another go on Mac first. feel like I’m not gonna see those coins again. And over a total non user error.
I got my money out but I'm also irritated. They can't just drop support for their own wallet format out of the blue like this. It shows complete disregard for their users.
Well.. I hope I get my money out also...
Good luck! I hope Bitcoin.com support will figure it out. It's totally their responsibility, you did nothing wrong.
Thanks for the help dude!
I’m hoping this is the case... I tried the bitcoin.com desktop wallet for Mac.. and I was unable to even import the wallet was getting the error message:
update, but should work also yet.
