Mnemonic Recovery and missing funds #107

Closed ElectraBull closed 6 years ago

  1. Entered mnemonic phrase to recover funds and it has taken well over 3 hours to load now. EDIT: 4 hours

  1. QT wallet is no longer reading backup .dat file. Shows "Zero" balance (wallet.dat was replaced with backup)
ivangabriele commented 6 years ago

The mnemonic does not cover the legacy account and there is absolutely nothing in the code that touches the existing addresses that are in the wallet.dat. It's impossible to erase an address anyway via the current daemon.

ivangabriele commented 6 years ago

Also it can take up to 2 or 3 minutes to restore you wallet but no more than that. If it takes so long this is because the mnemonic is wrong.

Do you still have the issue @ElectraBull ?

It's what happened with v1.0.8. Must use the 1.0.6 for recovery

ivangabriele commented 6 years ago

So ok I've fixed this one, it should not happen with the next release. I will keep this issue opened for the next release checkup.

ivangabriele commented 6 years ago

Fixed on v1.1.0:
