Dash Wallet 5.14 Beta Test (0.1 Dash for the first ten testers)

The test is to make sure that the recovery phrase feature works. You must have a balance (greater than 0.0000 DASH) to perform this test. Can you reload your wallet using the recovery phrase feature?

We have received more than 10 entries. We will take 5 more, but there are more requirements:

1. You installed the app in 2016 or 2015 and your first wallet was created during those years.

2. You must submit your screen shots using a "Report Issue" from the navigation menu. Make sure "Wallet dump" is selected. This will allow me to see the date your wallet was created as well as your transactions and addresses. If you are concerned about this, then do not participate.

3. You have many incoming transactions (10 or more).

Follow these steps:
1. Take a screen shot of Dash Wallet 4.65.12.1V (from Google Play) of the Backup wallet screen (Safety / Backup wallet) (which also shows a nonzero balance). Perform a backup. This proves you have the current version of the app with a balance.
2. Download https://github.com/HashEngineering/...v5.14-beta-5/dash-wallet-beta-5.14.beta-5.apk and install this beta app on your device. It will not replace your current Dash Wallet, it is a separate app.
3. Open the beta app and restore the backup from step 1 (Safety / Restore wallet). The backup file can be selected from the drop-down list and has the current date in the file name: (e.g Dash-wallet-backup-2017-07-25). The app may close and disappear. If it does, restart it from the purple icon for Dash Wallet.
4. While the beta app is syncing, go to Safety / View Recovery Phrase. Enter your PIN, if you have one, other wise the recover phrase will be displayed. Write it down.
5. In the beta app, go to Safety / Restore from Recovery Phrase. Enter the phrase from Step 4 and press restore.
6. Allow the beta app to sync. It may take 1-2 hours. When it is fully synced it will show the balance. Make sure this is the same balance as from Step 1.
7. Go to Safety / Restore from Recovery Phrase and take a screen shot of the screen with the balance visible. Do not enter your phrase. This screen will prove you installed the new beta app and that your app is synced..
8. Send both screenshots to [email protected] with your Dash Address. The first 10 replies with the correct screenshots will be paid 0.1 DASH ($17-20).

DOESN'T WORK? Send your screenshots anyways with your address and we will figure out what went wrong.

NOTE: DO NOT send any screen shots with your recovery phrase.

This expires on 4 August 2017.

We have checked the mail and paid out 15 submissions, which will be the end of the program unless you can meet other requirements:

We need to make sure this process works on an old wallet.
