Title: Sweeping BCH from multiple unspent outputs into Coinomi
Post by: catLitter11 on July 05, 2021, 11:39:28 PM
Back in 2017 for the bitcoin cash fork I had bitcoin on a Mycellium HD wallet. Initially I tried to sweep my funds into Coinomi it didn't load the total amount of bitcoin cash it should have. (It only showed ~25% as much as I had.) I gave up on trying to recover the rest until recently I was in my mycellium wallet and noticed there is an "unspent outputs" section (it's easy to brush over; you have to select your HD wallet and then click the three dots on the top right corner.) which lists four or five unspent outputs. So I guess when I sweeped my wallet into coinomi it only sweeped one of the unspent outputs. I have now been reading some tutorials on how I can recover the rest of my BCH into coinomi (or another wallet) using bip32.org:

https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/57422/how-to-sweep-private-extended-key-from-mycellium-for-bitcoin-cash-coins 

I'm confused on exactly what information I need to enter on bip32.org. Before I started entering sensitive information to bip32 I transferred my bitcoin to a new wallet but now as a result I can no longer see my unspent outputs in mycellium.

Can anyone walk me through what exactly I need to do to recover my BCH, or am I shit out of luck without knowing what my unspent outputs are?

When I open the "export account keys" menu in Mycellium it lists a public key (xpub, ypud, or zpub) which are 112 character phrases and a private key (xprv, yprv, zprv) which are QR codes.

I understand HD wallets like mycellium are a bit more technical and though I've owned bitcoin for some years I just hold it and dont really move it around much so it's all still pretty new to me. Any help is appreciated.  :)

Have you tried following the second guide posted on that link using the iancoleman's tools? I'm not familiar with bip32, but iancoleman bip39 should be able to do this too. Download and run it offline if you wanted to.
