And who provides the cables all the time? Trezor.
There mini cables are not functional 99% of the time so why sell them from the beginning?
I don't have problem with the device If i get new cable the problem will be fixed.  but this is not see easy to get new cable where i am at.
You, or one of your friends surely have an original microUSB cable from some older (or even new) smartphone. Try to use that and see if it works. If not, then it's a faulty device/port.

Should've been the first thing you must've done before purchasing another USB cable directly from them. I doubt with multiple new cables it's still the quality of cables at fault tho. Contact them and see what they're saying, maybe the fix is free.

I prefer HD wallets, so I'm not likely to use hardware. In addition, this is not the first time I see a negative review for Trezor.
And it's certainly not the last. There's no perfect product in the world with zero negative reviews.

I got a new cable and is working. Anyway I still blame Trezor because their cable are suck and never work  and they continue to sell them.
Anything else good. But still very unprofessional.

Had a Trezor for many years. It's never given me any trouble, updates just fine and I like their attitude far more than Ledger's. I'm wonder when a really enormous hole is found in how it operates but for now I'm happy with it.

I've always used a standard usb cable with it I had lying around. I did buy one with it, gawd knows what its fiat equivalent is now, but it's unopened.

Most of these companies do have challenges with their cables, which i think is the major issue with OP Trezor wallet not connecting to the laptop. I would also disbelieve OP, becasue his write up seem missed up with his actions, you removed your Trezor and keep your private keys with the google drives, then the cable was abandoned which could caused it damage. Changing the cable will be the final solution for the Trezor and not that its a negative review on the said Trezor wallet.

I'm more of a Ledger shill than a Trezor, but let's be honest here. What are the chances that you'd actually not see a single negative review for a product that's used by thousands and thousands of people? Zero. Every single widely used product will have bad reviews regardless how ungodly good that product is.

why will anyone want to buy trezor?
Because.. a lot of us value the security of our funds?

It already saved you from the robbers. Be grateful Smiley  Now the cable is working you can then access your funds.
I'm not a fan of any hard drive wallet and I have no money to buy one. But what I like is the MEWconnect which is almost like a hard drive wallet where we can store our ERC tokens. The private keys are saved in the phone storage, pretty much works as intended. I can even swap Tokens to ETH using the MEwconnect.

You already made it clear that the fault isn't from the trezor hardware wallet you own but from the cable so try and get a better cable from a cable store.
Even when we buy new mobile phones, the cable get faulty and we change it so the case is the same with your trezor hardware wallet.

the usbc cable that came with it is trash true. However I would rather pay their current price for a trezor instead of raising it so they can put in a better cheap cable. I love my trezor. no problems. 10/10 would recommend.

Why you should NEVER buy Trezor one
<>
Their device getting annoying af. I had multiple devices as some were lost and i replaced many laptops since then.

One month ago:

Trezor saved my after robbery
<>
Someone rob the house and rob everything laptop, money credit cards, phone But Only the trezor under the bed he not rob.
Is saved me because i use loclbitcoins and sold my btc later and still have money with no worries
bitcoin = freedom

How about after you remind yourself that trezor saved your life, noting that I don't truly believe your whole story, especially since next you claimed to keep your privatekeys in google mail you stop putting the drive under your mattress or your rug and damage those cables?

Your problem is the cable not with the device, and trezor has had a problem with their cable suppliers for quite some time, get a better USB cable for a shop and be done with it.


yeah, i remember that story. didnt know that it is the same person as i didnt go thru his post history. lol
 should be thanking trezor and not complaining bout the cable. and very well yes, you can buy good-quality cable anyway. his rant towards trezor is not justified and misleading users bout his title thread. i really thought it was the trezor itself was a prob.
maybe the reason why the cable that come with it is a trash coz it is not really part of their pricing for this product. so just treat it as a freebie and consider that it really does have very short lifespan

You comment doesn't make sense. Cables are inexpensive and I got new one long and is working.
There is no point in delivering bad cable that don't work. If we using your common sense than they should add few dollars to the price and give us some hq that works.

It's your comment that doesn't make sense when we compare it to the title of the topic.
Your situation right now is like a client cursing Ford and saying they will never buy another car from them because it was shipped with Firestone tires (which do suck or at least did in so in my case). Are you going to buy another car just because you don't like the tire on one? Or you;re going to pass on a house deal because the paint on the fence is not your favorite color?

Oh, and btw, your stories start to make little sense again and again

but this is not see easy to get new cable where i am at.
I got a new cable and is working.

See, problem solved.

I don't know how about Ledger nano but  I consider to replace now for Trezor model T since the one is terrible this company is really unprofessional to sell dysfunctional devices.

So after all these problems with multiple trezor one wallets you're still buying trezor T as a replacement? Are you a masochist? Grin

I have ledger nano S and it works fine. If it doesn't you can always use your key words to restore the wallet.

If the problem is with the cables maybe you're bending them or something? My phone charger cables usually break after about 2 years but they're cheap just as usb cables. These things have limited lifespan but you can get them in every store.

i think it's just a minor problem using any other device like the nano ledger can also break down. so I think you can take this to the company for a warranty claim

You are really making a big thing out of nothing.... There is absolutely no problem with the device and the software protecting your coins. I have had several hardware wallets, including the Trezor and I had no problems with it.

Also... Trezor the company might have signed a contract with a hardware manufacturer or supplier to supply these cables to them and only a small percentage of these cables might have failed. (1 or 2 batches out of the millions they made)

Calm down.... get in contact with the company and file a complaint and you might even get a new cable for your effort. (If you are to stingy to fork out a few dollars for another cable on your own)  Roll Eyes

So far, I don't have any problem with my Ledger Nano, it works fine and it can connect to an external wallet such as Metamask and Electrum. It's more than a year now and I haven't experienced any problem using it. But still, I know Trezor one is also a reputable hardware wallet, do you think your problem is just some sort of hardware issues? If yes then you should ask the support if you could have a replacement for it. All you need to do is to keep your pass phrase. Or else, try to use ledger nano.

These things happen from time to time. Trezor is the most trusted wallet and for good reason but as said earlier sometimes the devices do have a defect in them. Anyways, if you don't like it you could go for ledger nano, they are highly reputable.

I own a trezor and Ledger Nano S and both are fine for me. They are open-source hardware and there's no security issue on it.
I am using them without having any problem.
If you lose your hardware wallet then your coin will be in big trouble and in technically danger.
But with trezor it takes years to steal the content. For me its the safer wallets and recommend people use it

Is Ledger hardware really open source?
I haven't heard that before. I always thought that only the Trezor was the open source of these two.

I’d take a read through both of the following threads:

Open source hardware wallets
Secure Element in Hardware Wallets

Ledger is not completely open source, since their secure element is closed source (the rest is apparently open source). That has it’s pros and cons, and reading the above treads gives you some insights on what may be best.
