Quote from: Kamiil on November 17, 2021, 08:38:04 PM But I still don't know where to copy the backup file to my computer :-( So change - I succeeded. I am now in this chapter: RECOVERING FROM PROTOBUF WALLET FORMAT But something is wrong: kamiil@vitasekk10:~$ cd bitcoinj/tools kamiil@vitasekk10:~/bitcoinj/tools$ ./wallet-tool ./wallet-tool: line 19: gradle: command not found kamiil@vitasekk10:~/bitcoinj/tools$ ./wallet-tool reset --wallet=/tmp/bitcoin-wallet-decrypted-backup ./wallet-tool: line 19: gradle: command not found kamiil@vitasekk10:~/bitcoinj/tools$

Quote from: LoyceV on November 16, 2021, 05:16:16 PM If there are no transactions: any chance you have the wrong backup? I hope I have the right backup. If I make a backup before buying bitcoins, do I always need to make a new backup?

Quote from: o_e_l_e_o on November 16, 2021, 05:56:47 PM In your wallet, try going to Options (three small dots at the top right) and click on "Request to legacy address". Then hit the share button and look at the address which pops up. Does this match any of your old addresses? When I do this twice in a row, the old address is always different. First: 113EEBvAoP16AZtmsL6UjUdtvCxY8xdNYM Second time: 18QRDZbjEbmPojspNqvEMsBpgmMxmwjwL6 Third: 18x23KHaTwmuA72VSVoBWkSQd6GAcGoFmg

Quote from: BitMaxz on November 15, 2021, 05:15:00 PM What step you are now following? Is that the "RECOVERING FROM BASE58 KEY FORMAT" or "RECOVERING FROM PROTOBUF WALLET FORMAT" or are you still decrypting the wallet? Still decrypting the wallet. I don't know where to upload the backup file. I have Windows (C: \ ..) and installed Ubuntu on Windows. I'm sorry, I'm an amateur in Linux. Quote from: BitMaxz on November 15, 2021, 05:15:00 PM Anyway I found an old guide and maybe it can help you [HOW-TO] Export seed and private keys from your Bitcoin Wallet for Android Thank you, I'll look into it

Quote from: o_e_l_e_o on November 15, 2021, 05:02:59 PM Does the new address in the restored wallet being with "1", or with something else ("3" or "bc1")? The new address is "bc1qve5gf6juven........" Quote from: o_e_l_e_o on November 15, 2021, 05:02:59 PM That is OpenSSL encrypted Base64 data. The initial string U2FsdGVkX1 decodes to "Salted_". This is normal for a backup from Schildbach's Bitcoin Wallet. When you open the wallet file with your Bitcoin Wallet app, are you prompted for your password? Do you get an option to choose an address type or derivation path? Yes, I am prompted for a password. I know the password. Nothing more to choose from.

By the way - thank you for your willingness!

Quote from: PawGo on November 11, 2021, 08:27:52 AM I am not an expert in Bitcoin Wallet (for android), but it is possible that something has changed during 7 years, it would be necessary to check release notes. Maybe they by default work now on (Native)Segwit, not on old 1xxxx format? No idea. Did you protect wallet with PIN? Anyway, they say you may manually restore private keys from backup file (scroll to the bottom): https://github.com/bitcoin-wallet/bitcoin-wallet/blob/master/wallet/README.recover.md You may try to use their tool (preferably being offline). As you receive WIF, you may probably easily import it to any other client, mobile or desktop. Thank you, I tried it according to the instructions, I got to the DECRYPTING paragraph. I have Windows, I have installed Ubuntu, but I do not know how to enter the path to the file in the command line :-(

Quote from: o_e_l_e_o on November 11, 2021, 10:11:56 AM What happens when you restore the wallet? When you say "you don't see anything", do you mean the app can't find the wallet file to restore it, it finds it but won't restore at all, or it does restore but shows you an empty wallet? If it doesn't restore at all, does it give you an error message? If it does restore, do the addresses in the wallet match the addresses you have above? Do they begin with "1" or do they begin with something else? If you are going to go down the route of dumping your raw private keys, then you should preferably be doing this on an offline computer for security reasons. Now I've renewed my wallet. I waited a long time for 60 months to load. Now I see mBTC 0.00 - so the wallet is empty. No error message. The wallet address is different and there is a comment that this address will change after each transaction for security reasons. In the first post I wrote incorrectly what my backup file "bitcoin-wallet-backup-2014-08-18" contains It correctly contains the following: U2FsdGVkX1809I / daCCv4Qor7gyUZNvp00Z3Z5TMpJKSRpvDVs1wxikwES5UiKeU0Z4R .... and many other characters

Thank you. Yes, I secured my wallet with a password. I know the password.

Hi. Let me ask you a question. I set up my wallet in 2014, I think it was Bitcoin Wallet software from Google Play. I bought a 0.05 BTC. I made a backup (bitcoin-wallet-backup-2014-08-18) The address is 1MV2No1t2VAyoKhXAKNzGFyZmcXiNfjdB3. Unfortunately, when I restore this backup in the new version of Bitcoin Wallet software, I don't see anything there. Is there any way to get back to my bitcoins? The file "bitcoin-wallet-backup-2014-08-18" contains a number of characters: 1MV2No1t2VAyoKiXAKNzGFyZmcXiNfjdB3 149cen8AKLfWrfhpWS5cHnBFZLkfXSDZoK 13bCDmpKyccq8fx8ZTnsDSBrjs2MLcCQ98 (I intentionally changed a few characters so that it would not be misused) Thank you very much for any advice Kamil
