does anybody have a solution for the 5%-synch-stuck problem?
i am using OSX and the newest wallet.
thank you.
Sometimes, it seems stuck, and suddenly jumps to greater percentages. Some other times, after being stuck for a long time, a restart makes the syncing progress bar disappear. I would say that generally, it just seems stuck whereas it actually isn't. The latest release is supposed to speed up things though.
I used to have a similar problem that disappeared about 2 byteball updates ago.
Maybe it's not related with what you are seeing, but when it seems that the synchronization is struck, click in another window which is opened in your desktop.
Then click back in byteball wallet window and see if the percentage jumps ahead.
If it jumps then it was not really struck, but simply failing to update the percentage.
When it was happening with me I was running byteball within kde inside whonix/debian virtualbox inside linux.
I haven't installed new byteball version yet to see if the problem's resurfaced.
If you confirm the behaviour I've just described, then I think it'd be related to one of those nasty environment incompatibilities.
