[pishite]

Tell someone already put the latest firmware update on their wallets: one, t version? From the changes they write that only 1 cryptocurrency Bitcoin is available and there is an instruction on how to correctly set everything up. The wallet cease to be multi currency or is it a special firmware for adherents of bitcoin?

Bitcoin-only firmware is for people who don't use any other crypto or believe that their implementations might include security holes. It is not mandatory. The wallet remains to support multiple cryptocurrencies if one doesn't update to the special version of the firmware. I have updated my Trezor T to the latest version and I can confirm that.

I can also confirm BitCryptex' observation.  I have a couple of altcoins stored on my Trezor T which I recently updated to the latest firmware.  My altcoin accounts are still accessible and I've experienced no issues.

From what I've seen the bitcoin-only firmware must be installed manually, in other words you would know you're installing a non-standard version.

Today, I got an email from Trezor, they already released Bitcoin firmware on the public.

Now that this firmware has been released to the public, you can use your Trezor device and a specially designed Trezor Wallet solely for everything Bitcoin related

They have been noted :

Things to note

You can still store both altcoins and bitcoins on your Trezor, but when you install the bitcoin-only firmware, you won’t be able to see or access your altcoins from Trezor Wallet. Not to worry though, your coins are still completely safe. You’ll have to switch back to the regular firmware if you want to access any altcoins.

This firmware is the absolute minimum, for all the maximalists (or anyone who wants an ultra-simplified interface). That means that if you want to use functions like U2F, you’ll have to reinstall the regular firmware.

Nothing spectacular there. If you prefer to only use Bitcoin you can go ahead and install the Bitcoin-only firmware. If you are keeping other altcoins on your device there is no point in installing that particular update because you would have to switch back to the standard one to regain access to your Alts.

If I want to use the Bitcoin-only firmware, do I still need to transfer my bitcoin funds to another wallet address? Or my bitcoin wallet private keys in multicryprocurrency firmware will automatically move/migrate to Bitcoin-only firmware?
Because I have this trezor wallet which supported multi cryptocurrency and seems like I only need is Bitcoin in my wallet.

You don't need to move your coins. They won't be sent anywhere either. Your coins will be automatically recovered from the seed which you might need to enter after the upgrade to the Bitcoin-only firmware. You will retain your all addresses.

I has been already updated Bitcoin-only firmware.
Question is How to get it back into multicurrency like before?

[HCP]

Did you try just flashing the "normal" firmware using the same procedure you used to flash the 'bitcoin-only' one?

Trezor ONE: https://wallet.trezor.io/data/firmware/1/trezor-1.8.3.bin
Trezor T: https://wallet.trezor.io/data/firmware/2/trezor-2.1.5.bin

Either follow HCP's suggestion or try booting the device in a bootloader mode (swipe on the screen while connecting the cable) and going to wallet.trezor.io. You should be able to update your device there.

Ok Thank You, Already changed back on multicurrency using the same procedure.

Easy booting,

Devices with firmware 1.8.0 and newer connect to the bootloader mode when the left button is held pressed when connecting the device. There is no need to hold both buttons
