Hey, missed the other posts somehow.

I'll take a look later. It was working for me before I published it so it's weird that this is happening. Tongue

I'm busy with my other project for the forum, though, so it will take a bit.
just checking in, still getting the update failed msg when I hit the refresh button.

Took them a long time, but Google finally accepted my app.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cryptowatcher

I didn't have a lot of time the last few days, but I will try to take a look at the widgets and about accepting LTC.

edit: I just saw on the app's page that it requires a few permissions I didn't want to (like photos/gps, etc...). The app isn't using any of this and you would need to accept them in screen (you will never need, because the app nevers ask for it), but still, I will try to fix it.

edit 2: Forgot to remove those permissions from the Android Manifest (I actually did, but forgot to push to the repo. Tongue)
just checking in :-)

Finally figured out how to access the clipboard without the long press.

That being said, I'm getting request failed. Please try again in a few seconds. But same thing even after say 5 minutes.

Long press for the clipboard works from the address page. But not when trying to add the API key.

Looks good so far. Would he to test for a month or two to really get a feel for it. But looks like it's just missing LTC for now.

That one image that looks like a 2x3 "widget" with in the app. Anyway to make that an actual widget that can be placed on the home screen where it can be single topped for a refresh like what Digitl Currency Widget app does if you're familiar with it, displays a coince current price. I know setting auto updates might be a pain. But the names app can also hve refreshed initiated with just a single tap to the widget. But also, and this would be a nice feature for the widgets on this, if you can implement them. But, say centered at the bottom. Show the time it was last updated.

Just started the app and its already usable. It doesn't have many features yet, though. For now, you can add up to 100 Bitcoin addresses (no xpub/ypub yet) and see their balance. You will just need a Blockonomics API key (free).

However, I forgot to ask what is your phone OS. I have both a Play Store and Apple Store developer account, but building iOS apps without an MacOS device is very difficult (I'm using Ubuntu), so putting it on the Play Store should be way more easy.
Android and cool. Never heard of blockonomics

As for time. It's not like there's any real rush, so a side project is fine as long as it got played with from time to time. But if it became a priority for me. I could possibly pay down the line. But dor now it's a wishlist type thing.
No worries, I'm not asking for money. Coding is one of the things that keeps me sane during the lockdown. Smiley

I was also looking for an app like this some time ago and didn't find, so it will be useful even for me. I will work on it. Also, this isn't something that takes a lot of time or effort. A few API calls to some block explorers and a local storage can do the work. No privacy issues and no servers to mantain (which would cost money).

I was wondering if there might be a global mod or an admin here that can check an IP I have.

I believe it's one of my old ones that I still have in use on 3 web files I no longer need (the IP) for RPC stuff. This is easily confirmed if a global mod or admin can tell me a date range of when this account would have posted from it.

I think it's an old one from when I lived in Va, and if so. I obviously no longer need or have use for it. Or it may belong to something else I just forgot. But seeing if I have any historical attachments to it here would be a big help. Especially since, at least last I knew, the SMF DB log's account IP's used when they're posted from.

Ty.

I can PM the IP to said global mod or admin.

Lastly, if someone can send me any current publication links on the "beta" stuff for Trezor previously mentioned, that would be awesome... Ty.

There isn't really much information about it because only few people got invited to the beta. You can become a beta tester by subscribing to the Trezor newsletter. Don't worry, they won't spam your e-mail. I haven't tested the new software, yet. I will give it a shot in the next few days.
Think that's what I signed up for during the initial Waller setup, but Ty.

Will do it again for good measure using thst link.

But how / or why is it that the trezor site and the Electrum clients generate diff QR codes for the same address ?
There are different sizes of QR codes, different versions of QR codes, different ways to encode the data, different methods of error correction, different degrees of error correction, etc., meaning the same data can produce different QR codes.

In addition, it is possible to encode more information that just the address in a QR code. One code may also include a request for payment, an amount to be sent, or even additional information which will be read by your wallet (Example: Electrum contains a "description" field which can be encoded in the QR code).

As long as they both scan to the correct address, nothing to worry about.
lol... I didn't even thing of added info. That said, if the electrum QR's include a note field. I may incorporate it's QR codea into my sm peoject instead of those provided by trezor. I'll have to scan each with the coinbase app later to see what's what.

Cost will be approx $13, but a dual sided ID card. One with BTC logo, address typed and address QR. With the reverse being LTC . Size of a credit card, kept in the wallet. If needed to receive coin. Just gotta pull it out.

One final thing I want to keep separate from the above reply, not that I guess I really need to... and this is purely out of curiosity. But how / or why is it that the trezor site and the Electrum clients generate diff QR codes for the same address ? Even though off the top of my head I would fathom a guess that's just because they used some sort of varying coding methods even though QR readers can read both.

default_wallet > Standard Wallet > Used a Hardware Device > Prompts for PassPhrase > Screenshot you shared (native segwit m/84'/2'/0'")

CMIW, seems like you choose the wrong script type. You should choose p2sh-segwit if you want to access the 3xxx address instead of native-segwit (bcxxx).
Not sure how I get send-able merit, otherwise I would give this a +1. But that did the trick for both LTC & BTC. I can now see both addresses in their respective Electrum clients that were originally given to me on the Trezor website.

Ty !

From Electrum Load, but first...

No I didn't not confuse wallet lock and passphrasing lol. I get the phrase is like an extra word to the seed.

But from Electrum Load...

default_wallet > Standard Wallet > Used a Hardware Device > Prompts for PassPhrase > Screenshot you shared (native segwit m/84'/2'/0'") > Deny file lock bec it's public and that I don't care about.

But the BTC address that shows is a bc1 address when I would like to see the one I initially got from Trezor / that Trezor shows if I log online using the same pass which is a 36x address.

Same for Electrum-LTC which shows me a ltc1 address but on the trezor site, using the same passphrase. Shows me a MEQ address.

Everything else I previously wrote I'm comfortable with and have learned some. So really it's this one minor inconvenience that has me slightly confused. Since between the Electrum wallets and the trezor site using the same passphrase. I am given two very diff addfresses when going to the respective "receive" tabs online and in the desktop wallets.

I'm sure I just overlooked something simple, I would hope, in Electrum. But given what I am currently seeing, even if I wanted to use addresses initially given to me by Electrum. The reverse would hold true that I wouldn't see them online via the trezor site.

So the easiest solution it seems would be to get the trezor addresses to show on Electrum by way of adjusting a particular setting or adding something. Which I sort of mentioned before in by maybe adding the addresses given to me by trezor, when using my passphrase, manually which would make it like a watch wallet on Trezor but still needing the device attached to be able to send from it ?!?

I'll read that later, but even if I personally had your drive. Unless I had whatever pass phrase is set up. I couldnt do anything with it. Unless I missed something, I would need your drive and the wallet / system its tied to, to steal your funds. But just the drive itself, last I knew, wasnt even close to enough.

Let’s take a hypothetical situation of someone coming into the physical possession of your hardware wallet, and that this wallet has some kind of vulnerability that can be exploited with the help of cheap equipment and little technical knowledge. This currently exists with Trezor models which are extremely vulnerable in case the user has not set up passphrase, the seed can be extracted within minutes. The conclusion is that all those who are not aware of this vulnerability and do nothing to insure themselves, have at least one additional risk when it comes to protecting their assets.

For now, Ledger is definitely at an advantage because there is no such vulnerability - if there was one, Trezor would surely make it public. But what some people don't like about Ledger is the fact that it's not open source, for which Ledger again gives somewhat logical reasons.

Every device has its weak points, it's only a matter of time before someone discovers them. What plays the biggest role in the case of hardware wallets are possible remote attacks, which have not been recorded so far (or at least no one has made it public).

Broke down, bit the bullet and bought the Trezor Model T using some of the LTC I have.

Congratulations on your purchase, although it didn't seem to me that you would choose the most expensive option at the moment. Just a week ago you could get Nano S for some 30+ EUR, and Trezor T is 180 EUR now (VAT included).
So it showed up yesterday, didn't know until today. Got into a weird loop on the setup when naming the Trezor. But I figured that out. That said, it asked me if I wanted to set a pin, which I did, options seemed to be 1 to 9 numbers. Anyway, maybe this is what you meant by pass phrase, I don't know. But if not, what am I missing here ?

Edit: NM, figured it out. Just did a wipe of the device, then going to restore seed to double check if the pass wallet address is the same as well as the normal one. Pass phrase isn't even secure, but its for a test so... not like I can't do a new one that from what little I know is always attached to the seed.

lmao. So I basically described what you wanted anyway thus proving a demand. But ya... with crypto being what it is. I'm honestly surprised there is no such wallet app.

Not even sure it could be called a wallet the way it's described and would function. But the appeal is def there, for me anyway.

I look forward to testing it out. But I hope with the features I mentioned I more or less kept it pretty simplistic.
