So, I created 1 online wallet and other local wallet and loaded them for easy access. The blockchain was downloading for 5 days already and since day 2 it stopped at 70% mark and it didn't download any further. So, I came on this forum and people gave me a link to download the DB from http://db.burst-team.us . Extract the zip into <your wallet>\burst_db , then restart the wallet - you'll be up to date in 15 - 30 minutes.
So, I did this, but the local wallet didn't respond anymore. Anyway, I did everything from the online wallet.
Then, I decided to create a vault wallet, without loading it. I remembered the passphrase in my head and I also wrote it down on a paper. Before transferring any money into it, I checked it out and logged in around 4-5 times to see if I put the passphrase correctly.
Then I logged in into another wallet and transferred 17'100 burst. After that I signed one more time into the vault wallet (the 6th time) and it worked. But when I wanted to send from my Vault wallet 1 burst in order to secure my ID the passphrase didn't work anymore whatsoever. I tried even later to change some characters in case of mistake, but no.
So, you can tell anything you want, but I swear that is impossible to forget my passphrase in such circumstances.

RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
Well, I have seen in the very beginning when I just heard about Burst on these chats that someone entered his passphrase and got completely into a different wallet; but at that moment I also thought that is a mistake from that particular person.
Now, I just want to forget about this nightmare. I agreed in the beginning even when I saw that Burst is complicated, but now, when they don't even sign in all the time into the correct wallet -- sorry, I have to give up on Burst. -

It's the same.
It's very frustrating... I know for sure that I didn't confuse my password, something is clearly not working properly with whole this Burst thing.
Well, good at least that I didn't lose bigger investment as I wanted to do later on; good that this happened just when I invested initial $10.
Anyway, I wish you all goodluck with this Burstcoin; but I really have doubts about its success... -

It opened the pool. What should I get from this?

@haitch, I pressed your link and it says:

I also tried to change some elements and "spaces", but it doesn't work whatsoever. It's impossible to be so different when I know for sure that I signed in just a couple of seconds ago.
Besides, I wrote it down and I remembered into my head. -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
Now I can't even sign in into my vault wallet anymore. I know about missing space or element or anything like that. I knew it from the beginning. I am I have the correct passphrase.
Why it allowed me to sign in like 3-4 times, but after adding money into the wallet; I can't sign in anymore. It's impossible that I put a not the same passphrase. I tried like 20-30 times already.. -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I deliberately didn't want to load the wallet because I didn't want to save my PassPhrase in any form on my PC to secure myself in case anyone would break and hack my PC.
I used the passphrase manually and I signed in on purpose around 3 times to see if it works and it did. I even remembered it in my head, but I also wrote it down very carefully on a physical paper.
And after I transferred money into it from my older wallet, I logged in just fine; but when from inside I tried to set up my account as we are told in tutorials -- the passphrase just simply didn't work anymore.
Believe me, I didn't forget my password, I signed in around 4 times, I even wrote it down and remembered into my head; but after I transferred the money, it didn't work anymore.
Could it be some kind of a bug? -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
And I just transferred into that account 17'100 bursts.

RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I tried with space, I tried without space; I tried anything.

RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I just created a brand new Burst wallet to serve as a vault. I transferred all my funds to the vault account, then inserted the password manually and signed in again into vault account; but when I tried to send 1 burst to another wallet -- it was said that the passphrase is invalid.
I have written even in the beginning my passphrase on a paper, so I know for sure that it's the correct passphrase.
Why now it always says that "Incorrect Passphrase"? Someone could help me please? This is my Wallet ID: BURST-M5L2-29EH-PTKQ-DD2GK -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I don't understand.
I press:
-- start mining
-- ctrl+v the pool (m.burst4all.com)
-- change reward assignment
-- ok (where says that the pool address m.burst4all.com of m.burst4all.com got copied into your clipboard)
-- ctrl+v it in the second textbox
-- ctrl+v my passphrase in the first textbox
-- submit
What am I doing wrong? -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
After pressing "submit" the "change reward assignment", I got this: {"errorDescription":"Incorrect "recipient"","errorCode":4}
-
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I will just now start mining.
So, which one is the best mining pool for a total beginner? -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
@daWallet, do you want to say that if someone hacks my PC, an extra layer of security would not help me? For example, after password is inserted, the requirement of an SMS code sent to the phone number attached to the wallet would not be helpful?

RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
@Gibsalot ok, but I still don't see the risk eliminated here considerably.
Because, if I understand correctly, if someone hacks your Computer, when he accesses the Burst Client and presses the "Load Wallet" button, it appears the list with all your wallets (including the one that you keep as a vault). So, he just press to load every wallet from that list, gets automatically the passphrase for each wallet, even if you didn't save any of your passphrase on your Computer.
So, eventually, if someone hacks your Computer, it's not difficult for him/her to access all your wallets that you signed in even just once from your Computer.
Am I understanding correctly? -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I have one very big concern about the Burst.
Since it's so easy to log in into your wallet (you need just to press load wallet, then you get your passphrase copied for 30 seconds and you just paste it and you are entered into the account), if someone hacks my computer, it will be very easy for him to access my Burst Wallet and steal the funds.
I'm wondering, wouldn't be better and safer to just add a second layer (like the phone), so every time when you try to access the wallet to be required to submit the passphrase and the SMS code?
Wouldn't it assure a real safety? -
RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
Regarding mining: in order for my computer to keep mining bursts, do I need to keep it permanently open, or I can put it in the sleep mode as well?

RE: Blockchain downloadingposted in Help & Support
I can't wait until Burst mining will be available for iPhone as well.
