YYYY: Year of Address Creation
MM: Month of Address Creation
DD: Day of Address Creation
T: Left this the same
HH:MM:SS Time of address creation (recommended put 12:00:00)
Z: Left this the same

What do you mean with T&Z? I don't see any of it Huh

Oh, my fault. I see, that one after letter D & letter S Grin

Just don't edit that place.
Example:
*privatekey* 2015-01-01T12:00:00Z

For more security, after importing, delete the unencrypted file from SD. I have been using this for 1-2 months and nothing, flawless!

The better way to do this is to encrypt the file first before you transfer to your phone. Just use the encryption format that can be read by the Android wallet.

Hi!

This is my first topic here, and is for how to import addresses to Andreas Schildbach's Bitcoin Wallet.

First, go to Notepad and paste this code:

Code:

# KEEP YOUR PRIVATE KEYS SAFE! Anyone who can read this can spend your Bitcoins.
PutHereYourLargePrivateKey! YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ

Then, edit the spots

YYYY: Year of Address Creation
MM: Month of Address Creation
DD: Day of Address Creation
T: Don't Change!
HH:MM:SS Time of address creation (recommended put 12:00:00)
Z: Don't Change!

Now, click File > Save as

Name: Bitcoin
Type of file: Any file (*.*)

Now save and transfer to Download folder of your phone.
Start app, click on Restore Wallet, select the file, put nothing in Password, and Click "Restore"

Ready!
