Title: Ledger Nano S apps re-installed Post by: yoyome on December 26, 2017, 07:35:12 AM Long story short...
I reinstalled the btc, eth and ltc apps on the nano. (a couple of times). Then, sent some coins which showed up. Does this affect in any way the initial 24 word recovery phrase? By that I mean will these new wallet addresses still be protected by the initial config?

You can restore your wallet as many times as you want and the seed will always be the same.

If you uninstall an "app"... and then re-install... it does NOT generate a new wallet with new/different addresses... it will regenerate EXACTLY the same wallet as before you uninstalled it! ;) Title: Re: Ledger Nano S apps re-installed Post by: yoyome on December 26, 2017, 04:45:32 PM Thank you. That's exactly what I was asking. Wasn't sure if by reinstalling the apps you basically reset everything or the seed remains the same.
thx for clarifying |
