hi, i sent low fee (not free) transaction from bither mobile app and its been stuck for a long time now. https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/8da2ee3976816f37dea321c781af1895429ab9e559e28983f36278700a6e73cc i tried this method to clear / double spend the funds but it didn't worked. http://bitzuma.com/posts/how-to-clear-a-stuck-bitcoin-transaction/ i followed all the steps, signed my transaction and used a list of “pushtx” URLs but the all gave error something like -22 or -25. please help if you can.

Which wallet u used ?
I can Suggest u to wait For Some more days and still if its unconfirmed u will get back your btc from where it came ( Hope U didnot Bought Those Btc )
It will be automatically rejected by the nodes in 7 Days..
Unconfirmed Tx arent a big issue ..
You should post about the issue if its unconfirmed for 7+ Days..
However i can give u some tips to prevent such issues in future..
1) Always Put atleast 0.0001 Btc Miner Fees..
2) You can adjust your fees if u want to send an urgent tx.. for e.g. If u need very fast confirmation and u are in urgent need then u can include higher fees for higher priority..


IMO this case is different coz the transaction is a double spend, im not sure what did the OP have done to this but it will really depend on which transaction will get confirmed first (the first and second of the double spend)
OP's transaction probably got forgotten by parts of the network and the miners and probably could broadcast that double spend already.

At any rate, the replacement transaction has already confirmed.

Did you sign the transaction using a private key? A private key starts with 5, K or L.

Generally, even if you do make a correct raw TX, you wouldn't be able to broadcast it unless the network has forgotten about it. The reference client do not broadcast double spend transactions. You need to wait for at least majority of network to forget about it. Depending on your client, it may rebroadcast and you need to wait for it to confirm.

You have two choices:
#1 Wait for the network to forget about it and create another transaction.
#2 If you have access to any of the address you have sent to, you can create a CPFP transaction. CPFP basically allows the child transaction to pay for the parent transaction. If you pay a higher fee down the chain, miners who uses CPFP patch would see this and mine the entire chain of transaction for you and thus confirms everything. You need access to the private key of the address it was sent to however. Only Eligius uses this patch and they don't mine a whole lot of blocks per day.
