I sent my BTC from my pre-fork Electrum wallet to my post-fork Electrum wallet.
I then imported the seed into Electron Cash on a different PC.

It showed the coins as being spent, but still there if that makes sense.  It said 1bcc - (1bcc unconfirmed).
I couldn't spend the bcc either. I will wait until tomorrow and see, maybe BCC/BCH need to mine some blocks to confirm that the BCC are there, but the BTC are gone.

It's all a bit weird, I hate sending coins from wallet to wallet, I'm always scared that I will make a mistake, or that something will happen.

When you sent BTC from pre-fork EW to post-fork EW, did you just send and receive? Or did you sweep private keys? I'm trying to figure out the correct way to do this.

I sent and received. You want your BTC wallet to be empty, leaving your BCH there. 
If you import your private keys into a new wallet, you will import both BTC and BCH, and you will be back where you started!

Wait until the transaction is confirmed, before restoring from seed in Electron Cash. Apparently you need to select the correct server to get access to your BCH in Electron Cash.

Good luck and maybe start with a small amount, don't risk too much or trust anything too much!

I tried in mac , i got BCC successfuly . This is done for testing purpose only.

Before fork happen i already install electrum in my MAC PC. In that electrum i have 0.0002btc balance.

After fork on August 1, i installed electron-cash wallet on same pc.

I got 0.0002bcc in that wallet too. Means i did not follow any rules of Electrum.

After that i send btc to other web-wallet and it successfully transfred.

And in my electron cash wallet ,still showing me 0.0002 bcc.

Means all done in same pc . if want to do , do at your own risk.

If I have 5 BTC in my electrum Wallet, how can I test with just a little bit?

For example, in my electrum Wallet I have:
address 1: .002 BTC
address 2: 2 BTC
address 3 3 BTC

Total BTC: 5.002

How can I just test with the .002 BTC     ?

Just export the private key for "address 1" from Electrum and import into a BCC wallet...

Step 1. Goto the addresses tab... if you don't see it: "Wallet -> Addresses"
Step 2. Right click "Address 1" (the one that has 0.002 BTC) and select "Private Key"
Step 3. Input your password when prompted and copy the private key.
Step 4. In ElectronCash, create a new wallet ("File -> New/Restore -> Standard wallet -> Use private/public keys")
Step 5. Paste in the private key and you should see 0.002 BCC in your wallet.

NOTE: you may need to alter the network settings as per this post to get ElectronCash working right: https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/6qyn18/electroncash_notice_how_to_select_bitcoincash/

Yes, Bitcoin Cash is currently spendable as long as you are connected to a server with the right chain. Blocks are very slow at the moment though so expect to wait quite some time for any confirms.

Electron Cash is a different client for Bitcoin Cash based on Electrum code.  It's at:  http://www.electroncash.org/

But be careful, lots of potential issues.  Electrum has posted these instructions and advice: https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt

Good Luck!

Thanks I'll try it!
So its possible to use the seed/private key from Jaxx as well on this Electron wallet right? Or is it just for the btc on elektrum?

I recommend to better to wait more time and wait for some bitcoin holders to clarify if they can successfully redeem their BCC.
For safety looks like there are still no bitcoin holders are already claimed their bcc and hope someone can give us tips if what wallet should be the best to choose or if this electron cash is much better to use.. 
For me for now i am still confused to claim my bcc but i'll still research and waiting for the answer if what wallet is the best to choose in their listed wallets for bcc..

By now there should be plenty of people who has used Electron Cash... and still no feedback? Perhaps there is another thread to this subject?

Has anyone else had trouble with the Android APK? I cant seem to sign a transaction, and it gives me an invalid pin error when trying to view the seed.

Did you import an Electrum seed or a BIP39 seed that was from another wallet? Electrum does not store imported BIP39 seeds in the wallet file... so it is unable to be retrieved (on desktop, the "Wallet - Seed" menu item is greyed out and not clickable... on mobile it gives "invalid pin" error)

Well I've just tried it since no one says anything but when import the keys i got "No inputs found. (Note that inputs need to be confirmed)"

Then the keys you are trying to import do not contain any coins... This might happen if you've already moved the BTC from those keys... and your ElectronCash client is connected to the BTC network and looking at BTC chain instead of the BCH network.

Check your network settings... if the blockchain shows a value of: 478801 or higher, then you are most likely on the BTC network. You need to switch servers... uncheck auto connect and make sure you're connecting to a BCH server like one of these:
electroncash.cascharia.com (SSL: 50002)
electrum-abc.criptolayer.net (SSL: 50012)
180.235.49.196
35.185.209.69
35.197.25.235
bcc.arihanc.com (SSL: 52002)

You might want also want to remove the blockchain_headers file from your ElectronCash datadir so that it resyncs the headers correctly for BCH network.
