A friend has a Ledger Nano S with v1.3.1 firmware and has never used Ledger Live.

I was trying to help them recover their ETH but I can't seem to be able to get to the ETH wallet in Ledger Live. I assume this is because we have old Firmware.

He doesn't have the 24 word pass phrase so I don't want to update the firmware which will reset the device.

But I can't seem to be able to use any of the original Chrome apps to access the ETH wallet, every time I try it give a message about using Live.

Surely there must be a way to access the ETH wallet without updating firmware! Does anyone know how this might be possible?

This is an old thread, so hopefully you have been able to recover all your cryptos.

If not, there are known ways to recover all cryptos secured with Nano S firmware 1.3.1, but depending on the crypto type, it can require some efforts.
