Topic: MultiBit HD 0.4.1 has same bug as 0.2.0 (Read 1554 times)

Hi !  i have the same problem with version 0.4.1 i open multibit hd and it never connects to the network  and cant see balance or transactions it says connecting all the time, I´ve tried repair multiple times but nothing.

What can i do ?

Thank you all! Solved this by importing keys into bread wallet. I'm fine with having it on my phone.

I successfully tried generating a wallet in multibit HD and retrieving its extended private key using an offline copy of the webpage linked below.

https://iancoleman.github.io/bip39/

To use the webpage right click the link and choose save as , then press enter.

Open it offline in your browser, then click the BIP32 tab below the big Derivation Path heading.

Put the text below in the BIP32 Derivation Path box.

m/0'/0

Type your wallet words password into the BIP39 Mnemonic box.

The page should automatically generate your extended private key and a list of receiving addresses  for your wallet.

If your Bitcoins are in a change address then repeat the steps above, but type the text below in the BIP32 Derivation Path box.

m/0'/1  

The page should show you all your change addresses with their private keys.

If aren't sure if that webpage is trustworthy it was recommended by a respected member of bitcointalk called dooglus who's a clamcoin dev, and runs a well known dice site. This is the post which he recommended it in.

You can also scan it at the virus scanner link below to check if it's safe.

The only reason I said to run it offline was to be extra safe. It's possible to use it online. but less secure.

Yes




Use the webpage I linked to in my earlier post. After you have entered your 12 wallet words into it and put m/0'/0  in the BIP32 Derivation Path box the page should automatically display the addresses in your multibit HD wallet together with their private keys.

You should be able to see them about half way down the page below the big heading that says "Derived Addresses".

If you know which address contains your Bitcoins you need to copy the private key shown next to that address.

If you don't know which address contains your Bitcoins then open the blockchain.info link below and starting at the top of the list search blockchain.info for each Bitcoin address in your list until you find the one containing your coins.

Don't let blockchain.info or anyone else know any of your private keys

https://blockchain.info/

After you find which of your Bitcoin addresses contains your Bitcoins copy its private key, then follow these steps.

Download electrum 2.6.4 portable from here (because the latest 2.7 versions are buggy).

https://download.electrum.org/2.6.4/electrum-2.6.4-portable.exe

Create a new folder and copy electrum-2.6.4-portable.exe into it, then double click it to start the wallet.

An install wizard window should open. At the top of it select the "Restore a wallet or import keys" option, then click the "next" button.

Another window will open with a box in it that you can type your private key into.

After that click the "next" button and another series of windows should open. Leave each window's settings as they are and click the "next" button in each one until the wallet opens.

You can leave the password boxes blank, the electrum wallet can work without a password, and its password is not the same as your multibit wallet's password.

When the wallet opens it should sync within minutes and show your Bitcoins. You can use it to send them wherever you like.
