1  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Problem sending money from public key wallet on Electrum. Help! on: April 23, 2018, 10:06:15 AM
Thank you, I can spend from the wallet 2FA (wallet 1), but how can I get the seed of the wallet created with the master public key ot the wallet 1 (wallet 2). The wallet 2 is standard.

Why I don't see the wallet 1 contents in wallet 2? What sense does that the wallet 2 created with a master public key of the wallet 1, do not see the contents of that wallet 1 and create another new wallet with new addresses?

How did you put the code into electrum wallet in android?
I mean this code
Code:
 ismine("1YOURADDRESS")
You can only recover your wallet if you save the seed phrase, you can get the seed phrase when you create a wallet from electrum.
You can use the seed phrase to recover your wallet using android or desktop wallet.

Let me know your bitcoin address?

I have opened another wallet in desktop with the same public master key, then I can see the same that in Android, and access to console

The android address is 12T66xvAeJni8oMjn98dc5evbBXtCYZGqf

What version of electrum are you using on the desktop?

What colour orb do you see in the bottom right corner of the electrum window on the desktop?

What is your wallet type (wallet menu > information)?

Do the addresses in your desktop wallet begin with 3 while the ones in your watch only wallet on android begin with 1?

Answers:

Electrum 3.1.3

Is green in both cases

The desktop wallet is 2fa, the andorid wallet standard

Yes, exactly

Thank you, I have tested it and from the desktop wallet (where I've gotten the master public key) the answer is false, but from the "watch only" wallet the answer is yes. I don't understand anything.

Why the wallet created from the master public key don't shows the desktop wallet?

Why does it behave as if it were a new wallet but does not allow sending?

How can I find the private key or regenerate this "watch only" wallet to get funds from it?

By creating a wallet using the master public key, the new wallet will effectively become a watch-only wallet. This means that the funds can't be spent from the new wallet and you have to spend it from the wallet that you've gotten your master public key from.

Could you go to your desktop wallet and go to the console tab and type this, with the field inside replaced with the address you've sent to:
Code:
 ismine("1YOURADDRESS")

If the argument returns false, your desktop wallet doesn't have the address and you can't spend the funds.

Hi,

I created a wallet in Electrum (in Android) by master public key obtained from an Electrum wallet on the computer. I thought that I could see what I had on the computer from Android, but what Electrum did was create a new wallet. I sent bitcoins to one of the addresses of the android wallet, but now I can not recover them because it tells me that it is "watching only"

Can someone explain to me how can I recover the bitcoins from that Android wallet?
Why when creating the wallet in Android through the master public key, Electrum creates a new wallet instead of showing me the wallet of the computer?

Thanks in advance
