This is the land of wolves now & you're not a wolf
When updating firmware, is the recovery seed always required?

Only if the update goes FUBAR. Normally it updates and you just keep using it. No wiping or reseeding.

ok thanks...I still haven't updated my firmware since I got mine...I think I am two firmwares behind now...

Entering private key anywhere on your PC is unsafe. No need to use trezor for it.

It would be better to allow to enter the private key completely into Trezor, without revealing it to the PC.

For example, trezor could show RANDOM letters from base58 alphabet, in the 3x3 matrix as for the PIN. 8 random letters, 9th for "Other". Since private key is 256 bits, it would require about 256/3 = 86 steps to enter single key. Alternatively, one of buttons can be used for Other, resulting in 80 steps and some button presses on Trezor.

can we get a sweep private key feature in mytrezor.com? please, please, with sugar on top

use case: enter private key in the web form, use as input in a payment
send the coins to either a trezor address (sweeping) or any bitcoin address (payment) with the rest going to trezor ...

workaround is using any wallet that can import priv key. would be great if mytrezor would be capable of it.

Can someone give me a step by step on how to change the Trezor idle graphic using Windows 8.1 please? I wish it was just part of MyTrezor.com where you could select an image and tell it to use it. Thanks.

Step 1) Get https://github.com/trezor/python-trezor installed
Step 2) Change homescreen using proper commands

A user-friendly homescreen upload should come with next myTrezor.com release if I remember well.


i can't seem to get the python-trezor hack to work with 12.04?

Also, on the website have you gone into advanced options and checked the box for password use? The plugin might have updated and the option might have gotten unselected. The Trezor doesn't know if you have a password. It is up to the website or wallet software to prompt for one. Without a password you have a distinct wallet with its own keys. With the password you have another wallet with different keys. It may be as simple as the option to prompt for the password having gotten unselected.



in response to 600watt this would have been my tip, see the advanced options before wiping. the wallet was most probably just fine and did not prompt for password, no need to wipe & restore. but good to read you found your way

ok, i contacted support and followed their suggestions (wipe the device)   it was kind of exiting to wipe it. 

all accounts restored, the coins are safe, trezor is running fine.

everything is fine, the support was precise, friendly and fast.

thumbs up.

As long as you have your seed safely backed up nothing to ever worry about. Glad you got your Trezor working correctly again and restored access to your hard earned bitcoins. :-D

ok, i have updated my trezor.


when i plug it in, it asks for the pin. after i punch in the pin it shows the device name but that is it. it does not ask for the passphrase. what should i do ?  (tried several times to disconnect it and plugged it in again. always the same. it seems to try to load something, but it never gets there.)



 have you tried to plug it in another computer? or to run it with electrum instead of mytrezor plugin ?

tried several computers. getting worried. lots of coins...


i will write costumer support now.

Why on earth would you be getting worried? Didn't you write down the seed?

Also, they warn people to move coins temporarily during an update if they have large balances just in case. You can create a new wallet from the seed and password and then wipe the Trezor and start over and then send the funds to the wiped and new seeded Trezor. After wiping you might want to run the firmware update again just to be safe. As long as you have your seed and know your password the coins are safe and there is nothing to worry about.
