Title: Bluewallet "save to disk exception" error
Post by: Maus0728 on July 26, 2021, 09:17:57 AM
Heya! I have been using Bluewallet as my hot wallet for about a few months now, and this is the first time I encountered an error like this.

I am certain that I'm using the most recent version of their official Android app, which can be downloaded from the Google Play store[1].

Phone specification:

Android Version 11
MIUI Global 12.5.1

You can try to uninstall the wallet completely, and then redownload it and restore it using the backup phrase you have. If the problem persists, I would suggest you open an issue on the GitHub repository[1].

I do not think the probelm will persist, the reason for my positive reply is because I have just downloaded the wallet today and it worked perfectly. The wallet generated seed phrase for me and I backup the seed phrase. I also generated a lightning network wallet on it in which it generated me also a QR code and an alternative secret code. I later deleted the wallet, redownloaded it and restored both the Bitcoin wallet I can use for on-chain transactions and the lightning network wallet successfully. It will be good for Maus0728 to delete and restore the wallet using his/her backups.

Issue Update:

@OmegaStarScream is correct. You just need to reinstall the wallet and re-import the seed phrase to fix the said error. Also, thank you for the second opinion @Charles-Tim  :)
