Your wallets are buggy as hell.
Desktop wallet:
Entering my password and getting a message:
Error fetching account information. Trying again with a different node.
Node returned error while fetching your account information
It's a node problem, not a wallet problem. Change node to a healthy one and everything works fine.
Version 2.5.7 works but was showing less balance than it is. While wallet is open balance can increase for some time (and few more transfers appear in history) and then it decreases again with disappearing transactions. I clicked attach to tangle several times without result. Then balance was correct during few minutes and became less again, then it became correct again, then lower again. I am afraid to do any transfers while my balance jumps up and down like this.
Version 2.5.7? Which IOTA wallet do you use? Trinity wallet is version 1.0 (both the desktop and the Android version). Could it be that you used the very old IOTA Wallet which has been completely outdated for a long time? Do not touch it, also it does not work properly anymore because it has not been adapted to recent changes. Use Trinity with a working node (
use one of this list with high health and milestone) and you won't have problems
Sorry I was not specific enough. By desktop wallet I mean the current version of Trinity 1.0. And mobile version is Trinity too which is currently available on Play market. Trinity 1.0 is set to "Automatic node management", but why it cannot select a good node itself? When I try to add any node from this site
https://iota.dance/ - I tried to add this node
https://nodes.iota.cafe:443, I get a message "Custom node is already listed". However the wallet cannot start and says: "Error fetching account information. Trying again with a different node. Node returned error while fetching your account information", what other node can I add if it does not allow to add any node (because they all already added to the program). When I select "Primary node autoswitching" - "Primaty node:" whatever node I select it always says "Node out of sync". I just thought... does this wallet require correct time on computer? Time on my computer is incorrect (not local time) set. Can this be the reason? Because of incorrect time I have a problem connecting to Binance API, maybe your wallet requires correct time too. If yes, then you need to fix this and allow any time.
Yes wallet version 2.5.7 is old but still works for me unlike new Trinity. It shows correct balance now.
