How to use Electrum for Android as cold storage?

[Lumpi101]

I have created an offline wallet on an old phone.

I can create an unsigned transaction with the corresponding watch-only wallet and show it as a qr-code so it can be read by the offline phone.
With the offline wallet I go to "send" and read the qr-code (the unsigned tx). Then I can see the unsigned tx on the offline phone (as an info) but i cannot sign it or do anything useful with it (despite showing it as a qr-code again)...

So how can I sign the tx and give the signed tx back to the watch-only wallet in order to transmit it to the network?

Maybe you imported a watch only address and not your MPK like this person here? Please confirm.

You have to use the load transaction option not the send option. I'm not familiar with electrum for android so all I can suggest is that you look for a load transaction option.

@unamis Indeed, I imported only a BTC address because I thought it would be sufficient. With the imported MPK there is the sign-button which I searched before. Now, everything works fine.
For all who want to know how it's done: via the link of unamis is a good explanation.
