transaction somehow in strange state

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It happened twice already. I sent 1 BTC. The transaction was shown to me grayed 
out.
First time after waiting 2 hours I sent 1 cBTC and somehow magically both the 
BTC and the cBTC went through.
Second time I did not act on the BTC not getting sent. Days later I sent 1 cBTC 
again and it went through but not the BTC. At least from what I can tell from 
my side of the transaction. I remember that night I wanted to show to a friend 
how fast it goes and at least within 20 minutes it did not show up.
Since then I have the grayed out transaction on top of my list.

The recipient was 
https://blockexplorer.com/address/1DKkJUsv2h1YJ79g7cCeeWZcw7fAVyPePe - an 
instawallet actually. To me it looks like the transaction actually went through.

What version of Bitcoin Wallet are you using?

Can you upgrade to version 1.52 and reset your blockchain? Options -> About -> 
Reset Blockchain.

Earlier versions had bugs that could corrupt your wallet file.

No, I can not upgrade on my motorola defy. I see there is a newer version but 
it does not allow me to upgrade somehow. Did you change the requirements?

I just compared the manifest of 1.39 and HEAD but found no changes that could 
prevent updating.

Can you try updating from here:

http://code.google.com/p/bitcoin-wallet/downloads/detail?name=bitcoin-wallet-1.5
2.apk

You need to enable updates from "unknown sources" for this to work.

update worked now actually and "Options -> About -> Reset Blockchain" does its 
work. It is not really clear how to operate this feature as I have to restart 
the client or so??? "Reset" sounds like an action but it's a radio button?? 
Should it be "schedule for reset on next start"?

Anyway, transactions are being collected and I'm waiting to see if the 5BTC 
that I couldn't spend are actually mine or not. Will let you know if problem 
remains unsolved.

Leo, is there any news to this issue? Did you recover your Bitcoins?

Uff… ähm… you are really quick to answer. I would say your guess is as 
good as mine and assume that if I didn't complain anymore, the client 
recovered. Thanx for your help.

I had Bitcoin Wallet (please rename your app!!! Bitcoin Wallet simply has a 
different meaning already) installed in Chile which made me pay $20 of prepaid 
internet until I finally switched to Spinner but I will give it a try as soon 
as I read positive reports about bloom filters working.

Bloom filtering is implemented now and appears to work very well. Also, in the 
latest 3.0 beta we did away with blockchain storage and initial blockchain 
download. Bitcoin Wallet should now be just as quick as spinner.

Closing because the original issue has been fixed.
