When you download the android wallet, how/when do you get the 10 free bulls?

When you download the android wallet, how/when do you get the 10 free bulls?

CBX android app network is currently not working, we are looking for a solution still.

If you would like some free Bulls, you are welcome to visit the CBX faucets: http://bulliongalore.com/

quick question if we wouldn't swap our cbx to new coin instead of waiting for cbx to be more valuable is that also our option because if i understand it correctly cbx will be an investment right it will be more valuable after the success of spk.

Agreed, because there are a lot of good ideas in the new token, Spark; so that would be a possibility. Creating the new coin requires some money to pay the programmers however...

I want to stake my CBX, however I do not want to leave my PC on all night. I want to install it on my Linux vpx. Is it possible to stake on my VPS, and how? Or do I have to install the GUI?

Hello,
Yes you can install it on your VPS, I would recommend Ubuntu for OS.
There is no GUI, you will have to admin it through RPC command with commandline.
Here is the guide to compile the daemon on Linux:
https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CryptoBullion-CBX/blob/master/doc/build-unix.md

Then you have to learn how to use RPC, I would recommend you to search a tutorial about Bitcoin RPC, it works the same way.

Could someone link me to a tutorial? I have compiled the daemon and want to know how to use it. Bitcoin is PoW, so I don't know how the command line arguments for the things I need, like staking. (Will it just be getstakeinfo?)

Also, I tried using the CBX Windows client. I download the bootstrap and open up the wallet again, and it starts syncing like normal. Then it just freezes. Connected to 8 nodes, but not syncing any blocks. Huh? I've terminated and relaunched multiple instances for this to happen. This is why I'm trying my luck on the daemon.

Would it be better if I did something like put "prune = 550" in my CryptoBullion.conf? Does CBX support pruning?

I am not sure about pruning, perhaps Alex4J can answer this one? 

The CBX Vault will attempt staking by default, unless it is locked.

As for your syncing issue, if you have loaded the Bootstrap properly it should only take a few hours max; perhaps retry by deleting all files from CryptoBullion folder and putting there once more the decompressed Bootstrap files.

We have a few nice guides made for the CBX Vault: http://forum.cryptobullion.io/index.php?board=5.0

Ok so I've tried syncing over five times already. Just freezes. My VPS only has 1 core and half a gig of RAM, so that could be adding to the problem.

512 Mb of ram is a bit low to run Linux + wallet, I would recommend 756mb or 1gb.
Maybe also check the swap size it could help.
May I ask you how much you pay for this VPS and where he is located ? I mean maybe I can help you to find a better offer for the same price.

Anyone else having trouble syncing? Just put the new wallet in (Linux v. 2.4.3.0, 64 bit) and it won't sync. Stuck at block 1587390 for days.

Send me the debug.log it could help me to find your issue.

Tried letting it completely resync from start...blows up. Here are the last 100 lines of debug.log

You used the wrong BDB version to compile it, you must use same BDB version if you want use bootstrap, if not used you must download from 0

Not true. If that were the case it would have never started syncing.

Stopped the update prior to the last block that caused it to crash. Then restarted and everything was fine.

Currently now synced and staking.

Interesting issue, I am glad you resolved it. What block was causing issue - I wonder if it is the bootstrap that needs replacement? Anyone else experience anything of this sort?

Thanks, very odd indeed. I was having trouble being stuck at block 1587390. Then having issues with a "too many files open" error.

All seems to be ok now, but I'm watching closely to make sure.

We've reopened the Twitter Bounty Campaign at PromoPlugs!
We've also added a new action promoting the ICO so if you've already completed the campaign, you can come back to earn more coin!

Here's the link: http://promoplugs.com/SelectedCampaign.aspx?CID=184
876 Completed Actions and counting!

Takes seconds to complete!

We've just broke 1000 completed Actions in our Twitter Campaign! Thanks for everyone that's supported it!
If you haven't, their's still a few days left!

That is a block from back in early August and no one else has reported the same problem so I doubt it is an issue with the bootstrap... We will see if anyone else has an issue otherwise assume it is an anomaly that is now resolved.
