Title: MIST just doesnt sync completely!!!!
Post by: kashish948 on July 21, 2017, 01:32:58 PM
Im trying to get MIST to sync but looks like lot of issues with the software. I tried 2 different laptops and none can sync. Here are screenshots of what happens:

Gets stuck at this even though new blocks keep showing on command prompt window.

Sometimes shows this.

I've had endless problems too. I found running Geth from the command prompt (don't worry about the --fast command if you already have stuff in your chaindata folder) got it to sync without crashing or stalling. It was painfully slow though and I had to leave it on permanently if I wanted quick access to my balance.

I gave up in the end and shifted it all somewhere else; less secure :-(

wow cant believe eth wallet sucks so bad....lots of people reporting this issue all over the net too. and same time shit coins have much much better and faster wallets!

anyways, im now stuck on downloading the last 100 blocks and the chain structure keeps going on and on......its at 16.2 million now with no end in sight! anyone know how big is the chain structure?
