I can't get my wallet to sync either, but my understanding was that we're still waiting for the next release to address these problems?
that was my understanding too, i didn't see any post in here telling us that there's a new wallet.
I downloaded the newest wallet now and it's still not working , getting : Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:19119
looks like u didnt start up the wallet. just opened the gui
