Excited about light wallet... great job.

[willowfoot]

We are moving forward 

Wallet:
Here you can find the officiall GUI wallet release that includes the light-wallet! The light-wallet ist still in testing phase so please report the bugs that you found!
https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/tag/v2.1.0

Simply click on „Switch to light-mode“ under „Tools“:

Is there a need to upgrade from 2.0.2 if we don't intend to use the light wallet?

I dont think so. My 2.0.2 wallet is working well and i can send/receive Iotas to/from lightwallet users.

Claiming is works got my iota from old and who wants to buy 1gi pm message.

Yeah, with light wallet I would expect the last layer of sellers/dumpers to come alive. Hopefully not many. A good chance to get cheap Iota now

IRI runs fine ages now, but I just got an error trying to run the GUI.  First time/version this has ever happened, btw.

Fresh install, old db deleted, updated java, node.js, etc.  Please let me know what I am missing:

Code:

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception:

Edit:  Ubuntu 16.10 64-bit

Try restarting, that often solves the problem.
Otherwise you can also wait for the next pre-release or for the official release. The current light-wallet is still in testing / development and has some bugs.

Where i can find Neighboring Nodes ?
Can someone post it here ?
Don't tell me about slack, i don't understand what is it )

If you can't join slack, then its best you wait for the official light wallet release.
Coming this or next week probably.

is it safe now to use the light wallet for claiming and regular use, or is it still not a final release and intended just for testing?

At the moment i know 2 people that successfully claimed with the light-wallet (1 on linux and 1 on windows). I never heard of a problem with claiming  

Its really easy:
Go to "Tools" and click "Claim Process"


Then simply enter your old seed and a new seed. Wait until PoW is finished. Login with your new seed


Take care of your seeds! Make sure you dont lose them in any way (create backups, print them or do whatever is needed that they dont get lost)

Are there any known bugs in this release? I have installed it and tried to finally claim a remaining portion of my Iotas, but what I got is pretty strange.
Opened the "Claim process" dialog, entered old seed, then the new seed (different one) two times. The button indicated "Claiming" for some time, then it showed something like "The seed contains 212 Gi", then after some time button changed to "CLAIM COMPLETED" in nice blue color.
However when I login using the new seed, I see balance is zero.

Well, I logged out, and did the claiming once again, absolutely the same procedure, just with different new seed. Both the process and result were again the same - it reported "The seed contains 212 Gi" (regardless of the fact I already claimed them!), and "CLAIM COMPLETED". Then again, I logged in by new seed and saw zero balance.

Am I doing something wrong? The procedure is extremely simple, I cannot see what I can do wrong there.
BTW, I used http://service.iotasupport.com:14265 as the node, just in case if it makes difference.

Would appreciate any help, or RTFM if needed

It can take up to an hour until you see your balance on the new seed.

[BiTrading]

unclaimed iotas will be considered as donations to the foundation. But how would  you get access to the unclaimed tokens when they are locked up behind unknown seeds?

[5thangel]

i am sorry for dumb question , but where can i get information about how to get some iota?

[markus1000]

All the IOTA trading is done in the IOTA slack at the moment until it's listed on exchanges.
And slack is nothing magical or complicated, its just like a chat room with more features.

There is a big explanation in the #trading chanel how things are working now.

Thank you ! Gonna check now 

[komakino]

@drays have you generated(receive-->attach to tangle) an address?
If not, generate one and wait for an hour to be sure.
If the balance still doesn't show up, generate one more

In slack IOTA, channel Trading!!

"As a temporary solution, an OTC Bot has been set up to enable trading in the official IOTA slack.
Since @yassinnxt  provided an excellent service as escrow in the past, he will act as an intermediary, before IOTA hits exchanges.
Additional advice: @yassinnxt  is the only escrow. Don't send your funds to different persons and be sure to interact with @yassinnxt  only as impersonators occasionally tried to scam some people in the past."


The OTC-bot service assisted by Yassin works as follows:

1. You send BTC or iotas to an address provided by Yassin (via private message)
2. Yassin executes a command to deposit the accordant amount to your balance tracked by the bot
3. You buy/sell iotas (this can happen as many times as you need)
4. You send Yassin an address to withdraw the earned BTC/iotas
5. Yassin adjusts your balance and sends real tokens to your address
6. Trades are taxed with 0% fee.
7. Deposits/withdrawals are charged with 1% fee (rounded up).
8. Min amount of a deposit/withdrawal is 10'000 microBTC/2 Gi.
9. To get instructions on how to trade iotas once you get your tokens on the balance type "HELP" on #trading   channel.
10. As a precaution, you are advised to provide Yassin with an extra BTC and IOTA-address to be able to receive your funds once you left slack for different reasons, such as a ban or technical issues.
11. For each IOTA deposit, a new address must be generated. This is necessary to show the right balances for each entry listed by the bot.
12. For better usability, Gi and microBTC for fees are always rounded. (1Gi for 2GI-100Gi, 2Gi from >100Gi-200Gi and so on)


Example-trade:

-Alice contacts @yassinnxt   and says "I want to deposit 50 BTC"
-She sends 50 BTC to an address provided by Yassin
- Once 50 BTC are confirmed, Yassin types "GIVE 49.5 BTC TO @Alice (1% fee included)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Alice contacts Yassin and says "I want to withdraw 200 gigaiotas (Gi)"
-Yassin executes "TAKE 200 Gi FROM @Alice"
-Yassin sends 198 Gi to Alice (1% fee included)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Alice contacts Yassin and says "I want to deposit 200 Gi"
-She sends Yassin 200 Gi
-Once 200 Gi are confirmed he types "GIVE 198 gigaiotas TO @Alice" (1% fee included)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Alice contacts Yassin and says "I want to withdraw 50 BTC"
-Yassin types "TAKE 50 BTC FROM @Alice"
-Yassin sends 49.5 BTC to her (1% fee included)

You may find your answer in the book of genesis, my son

You should look at the transaction history if there are any pending transactions. If there are, just wait until they're confirmed(it should in 24 hours), otherwise balance will show up as 0. The way you described it, first attempt should have been valid.
