## The app always crashes as soon as I open a wallet!
|
|
|
|
|
Users of Zenfone MAX & Zenfone 2 Laser (possibly others) **MUST** use the armeabi-v7a APK as the arm64-v8a build uses hardware AES
|
|
|
|
|
functionality these models don't have. If this does not help, please report the problem.

## My new testnet wallet does not update
|
2017-11-04 23:55:26 +01:00
|
|
|
Since testnet block times are highly variable, the algorithm calculating block height does not
|
|
|
|
|
produce good results - so in general your testnet wallet will not work out of the box.
|
2017-11-04 10:17:20 +01:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The remedy is simple: restore from seed and the correct / current block height. Take the block number
|
|
|
|
|
of your first transaction or the current block height from the
|
|
|
|
|
[Testnet Blockchain Explorer](https://testnet.xmrchain.com/).

## I cannot select and copy the mnemonic seed
|
|
|
|
|
Copying anything to the clipboard on Android exposes it to any other App running. So this
|
|
|
|
|
is a security measure to keep your seed safe(r).

## My storage is getting full
|
2017-10-07 20:07:58 +02:00
|
|
|
Newly generated wallets are stored in `.new` in the main wallet folder.
|
2017-09-04 23:29:48 +02:00
|
|
|
They are never erased (for now). You can delete this whole folder from time to time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-10-07 20:07:58 +02:00
|
|
|
Also, the backup folder named "`backups`" (formerly `.backups`) is never automatically cleaned up.
|
2017-09-04 23:29:48 +02:00
|
|
|
You may want to do housekeeping manually with a file browser.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-10-07 20:07:58 +02:00
|
|
|
All wallet files (`testnet` and `mainnet`) are stored in the main `Monerujo` folder.
|
|
|
|
|
So be careful erasing stuff. One of the future releases will split the wallets and move `testnet`
|
2017-09-04 23:29:48 +02:00
|
|
|
wallets out of there.
|

## Do you have any screenshots of what it looks like and how it works?
|
2017-08-29 23:00:07 +02:00
|
|
|
No, but it looks fantastic. Just check it out.

## Can I use existing wallet files?
|
2017-08-02 15:39:38 +02:00
|
|
|
|
2017-08-20 16:18:59 +02:00
|
|
|
If you want to use existing wallet files, you need to copy the wallet files from you current Monero client. These are:
|
2017-08-02 15:39:38 +02:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
WalletName
|
|
|
|
|
WalletName.address.txt
|
|
|
|
|
WalletName.keys
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### From where?
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-11-04 23:55:26 +01:00
|
|
|
This depends on your installation - you could search for them in your home directory or check the settings of your current client. Places to try are:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Windows: `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Monero\wallets`
|
|
|
|
|
- Mac: `~/Monero/wallets` (for the GUI) or `~/.bitmonero/wallets` for the daemon.
|
|
|
|
|
- Linux: `~/.bitmonero/wallet`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...or just search for `WalletName.keys`.

|
|
|
|
### What if don't have these files?
|
|
|
|
|
|
2017-08-20 16:18:59 +02:00
|
|
|
Keep calm and make a new wallet.
|

|
|
|
## Why does it make a 'monero' folder?
|
|
|
|
|
This is a new feature of monero core to share certain key images with other monero forks.
