How to get Bitcoin Cash from many wallet/software/services with Coinomi

[Flat.E]

I have bitcoin in a core wallet.
Can I send my bitcoin to my new Trezor wallet.
Will this affect me claiming my bitcoin cash if they are moved.
I am not technical and I'm waiting for someone to help me get
my bitcoin cash but I want to move my original bitcoin to keep them safe.

Yes, you can and have to move your BTC out before you use a tool to claim BCH from your old address, see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2062488.0

Hi,

I'm following the steps for Multibit HD.
When I enter my 12 letters I get lots of private keys.

Do I have to scan each QC code? to find out which private keys hold my bitcoin cash??
I've only manage to find some so far :-(

That's the idea.....
Check your addresses for  BCH here, https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/. To speed the search on the page where you find your priv. keys up a bit, load 200 addresses and do ctrl-F (browser find function) and search for the addresses that showed coin one by one.

[Flat.E]

Thanks for the reply but i still need a little more guidance.

When you say Check your addresses for  BCH here, https://bitinfocharts.com/bitcoin%20cash/

i'm not sure i understand.  i put my "receive" wallet address into the site but just got a graph??
i get the ctrl +f bit but just need to find out what addresses have BHC in them??

The bip39.html is showing me thousands of private keys.  my arms gonna fall of if i've gotta scan each of these codes.

Please help!

You have to put in addresses that had BTC before the fork of August 1, I only get a graph with addresses that don't have or ever had BCH, like addresses made and used after the fork. If addresses have or had BCH, you will see lines with input and output dates for made transactions.

About the amount of addresses, that's why I said find those addresses, in your BTC wallets, that had BTC before the fork to narrow your search.

No, don't know a thing about ios, seems breadwallet is working on a bch wallet for ios. Coinomi, for android, does a good job sweeping paper wallets.

I've added a little update with on Bitcoin Wallet (Android)

On the coinomi website i can only find an android version. Where do i find the windows version?

No, don't know a thing about ios, seems breadwallet is working on a bch wallet for ios. Coinomi, for windows, does a good job sweeping paper wallets.

Currently, I am attempting to use the breadwallet for IOS.

I had bought a ledger nano s, and I was going to use that to split my coins from my blockchain.info wallet, after reseeding the blockchain.info wallet to the ledger nano s.

For some reason the ledger nano s only showed 11 addresses out of my 57 blockchain.info addresses, so after I wrote to blockchain.info and ledger support, I was NOT able to resolve the issue. Ledger support did not even respond to my message.  Thus, I decided to try the breadwallet based on having had read the above post.

So, initially after I installed the breadwallet (version 0.6.9 which was just released yesterday) onto my iphone and input the 12 blockchain.info seed words, it is taking a real long time to sync.  It has been more than an hour, and it has only synced 55%  I am afraid to touch the Iphone during this process.. So I will see in another hour, perhaps, whether it shows all of my blockchain.info bitcoin addresses and whether I can split the coins from the bread wallet. 

Apparently, the new feature in today's release of the breadwallet was some kind of ability to split or to send BCH (still in the process of confirming)

Further, at the same time, I thought that the long sync times of the breadwallet could be helping me to troubleshoot the issue with the ledger nano s.  Therefore, I decided to erase my ledger nano s, and to attempt to sync it again.  I had been thinking that I might have done something to cut off the ledger nano s in the middle of the synchronization process and that could have been the reason why it only showed 11 out of 57 of my bitcoin addresses... O.k... as I was typing this message the ledger nano s completed syncing (a second time), and it did not show me any additional bitcoin addresses on the second attempt.  Whoo hoo, 60% synced on the breadwallet, now.

[Casabrandy]

Sweep is not available on mobile app of electrum, I still download the portable version in windows in able to get the private key out from my wallet seed. But this thread is great, I'm having problem on what BCH wallet to used since there are many malicious wallet on the web, I never imagine that coinomi wallet will be helpful for claiming BCH. Thumbs up to OP.

Seems as if I am fucked with each thing that I try in which I am trying to save myself from exporting private keys into any of these possible BCH wallets (I wasn't considering coinomi because I don't have an android)

The bread wallet seems cool as hell, but it did not show my 57 BTC addresses from my reseeded blockchain.info wallet.

It took the breadwallet about 5 hours to sync in total, so I thought that I was going to be in luck, and I was getting excited to see all my 57 blockchain.info wallet addresses... but didn't happen.

 So I am thinking that my next option is to get the Trezor, since the blockchain.info support rep said that he had used the trezor to gain access to his blockchain coins. maybe I should follow up with blockchain.info again? 

I am just trying to avoid exporting my private keys into one of those BCH wallets (and I am not sure how to do that, either - when we talk about private keys, are we talking about the 12 recovery words that blockchain.info is using or is there another way?  Of course, I would want to transfer my BTC out of those addresses first), but I might have to consider that as a possibility, if these other options are not getting me anywhere.  I have some difficulties believing that one of the BCH wallets is going to recognize all 57 bitcoin addresses, if I cannot get some of these more established wallets to recognize  - call me a skeptic. 

Maybe I am making this too complicated in my quest for easy options?

Electroncash worked perfect for me, the only wallet that found my "missing" address that the stand-alone priv. key retriever never produced, even if I loaded 1000 addresses. So move your btc elsewhere and:
In electroncash: file-new/restore, pick a name-next, standard wallet-next, "I already have a seed"-next, enter seed words- under option check bip39, next etc.

O.k.  Maybe I will try this.

Remember I have 57 address in total and 24 addresses that have bitcoins on them (actually 25 now), and I will move all of the BTC from each of the 25 addresses (possibly to my ledger nano s), then after I am completely comfortable that the ledger nano s is showing all the bitcoins (maybe 6-10 confirmations), then I will create the electron cash wallet and enter in my blockchain.info wallet 12 word seed into that BCH wallet, and see if the BCH show up on there. 

That might be the easiest and quickest solution to attempt to access these mysterious BCH, and likely safe (to see the BCH that should be present on 23 of those addresses - 23 of the addresses had bitcoin on them on august 1 at the time of the forkening). 

I am juggling a few things, and I will report back once I do this.. might take me a day or so (unless I change my mind in the chickening out process... hahahahaha).

Warning:
Some of those operation can put your private keys at risks.
It's better if you do them on a secure computer, that you are sure that there aren't any virus/trojan.
If you aren't sure about this, you should prepare a better machine where doing all of those things.

FIRST STEP THAT YOU MUST DO BEFORE DOING ANY OF THOSE THINGS
You have to transfer your Bitcoin on a new wallet, again a new wallet not on a new address of the same wallet.
This must be done because you are going to extract your private keys, and so putting them at risks.
So, by moving your bitcoin "before" exposing your private kets, the risks is less, maybe you are only going to lose Bitcoin Cash. (if there some virus/trojan on your computer)

Any ideas anyone

[Edouard23]

ok i have solved my problem
it was a question of private key format
the private key extract from blockchain.info is a compressed key format
i have use bitaddress.org to convert in "standard" private key format
then import it in electroncash !
and its works ! i have claim my bcc !
good luck !

Hello Guy !
I need some help ! )
I have a BTC adress with BTC inside BEFORE the fork
I have moved my BTC AFTER the fork to another adress
Now i try to claim my BCC from my original adress
I have test adress  to Blockdozer : they contain BCC
I have created a BCC wallet with Coinomi android app
but when i try to sweeped my adress with my private key , invariablely they say : no fund on this adress

I don t know what i need to try  !

Thanks to take time for me !

How many addresses' private keys have you tried, I found coins at several addresses down the row. And some addresses are never found even if I load 500 of them with the option below the addresses/priv.key lines.

Do not use sites like these, there's plenty warnings going on using that site, even offline pages doing this should be used with small amounts first, and maybe even only small mounts at all.
