Greetings to all forum members.
Who uses Electrum - tell me what could be the problem. The situation is as follows.
I've an Electrum wallet installed on my Windows PC.
The task is to get an access to the wallet on my Anroid phone.
So, I've downloaded and installed the Electrum app from the Android Market.
While the first launch I chose "I already have a seed". After that I've entered my seed (25 words), but the 'Next' button remained inactive.
As a result, I still don't have access to the wallet on my mobile.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

I'm not familiar with the android wallet but does it let you choose what kind of wallet you wish to restore? If you have 25 words seed phrase it means you're using 2fa wallet, they can't be used to restore standard wallets which only have 12-13 words seed phrase.

2FA seeds are not supported in the android version.
The latest Android version (2.7) displays an error popup if you enter a 2FA seed.
Previous versions did not display anything, as you describe.
