I bought my Ledger Nano S Plus from Best Buy. There was no plastic wrapping around it. It was in a sleeve. I cannot get it to move past the Genuine Check on ledger live. However it does not have any message that it is not genuine. It does not move past "Connect and Unlock"..... The chat is not answering my issue!
how do u get to the geniune check page? this isn't my fiirst ledger device so my ledger live didn't go through the normal steps. how do i do a geniune check?
I’ve the same question with you. I just bought one from a vietnamese reseller accredited by Ledger, and wonder what if they add a new chip inside because it’s easy to open up. The seal is also easy to fake. Is there any sanction if an official reseller sell scam Ledger product?
I bought my nano s 2 years ago thru a 3rd party. Since the seed phrase was generated on the inital setup, im guessing thats a good sign the device has not been compromised and still has its integrity? All packaging and materials appeared in tact
Individuals owning these devices typically seek top-notch security, so when they aren't providing a robust support system to tackle such enquiries with technical analysis, it feels like they're evading responsibility.
i bought ledger today, it comes with orange box , is it a new package or what. i am a little bit scared. also i will check all steps from the video, thank you and please reply
Thank for the great video. Question off topic if you don't mind. I have a few Ledger Nano S devices. I purchased them a few years ago, use them just a handful of times a year, and have them in safe storage. My first Ledger Nano S device's screen slowly began to degrade and eventually went 'black.' I messaged Customer Support a few months ago but no reply. I noticed similar screen issues on my 2nd device a few months ago. I just now checked the screen and its impossible to read; it's essentially dead in the water. Do you know if this is a common issue with Ledger Nano S screens? Also, I'm planning on buying a Ledger Nano S plus and importing seed phrase from my 2nd device. There shouldn't be an issue correct? Thanks for you support.
Hi, yes this is one of the common issues we have with Ledger Nano S screens. However, if your Ledger devices are still in the warranty period then you can reach out to our team and we'll send a replacement. And if the devices are out of warranty then we can offer a discount that you can use on your next purchase.
Hello, this isn't necessary, you wouldn't't be able to reset a device which is not set up. The best practice is to set it up and complete the steps below: - set up your PIN - generate 24 words recovery phrase from your Ledger device's screen - establish a genuine check connection with Ledger Live installed from Ledger.com support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/4404389367057-Is-my-Ledger-device-genuine-?support=true If you were able to complete these 3 steps, then your device is safe to use, if you come across any hurdles, let us know, and we'll gladly assist.
I bought nano x via ledger official website. It generated 2 same words when I’m setting up the 24 seed phrases. Is it common 2 out of 24 seed phrases duplicated? Thanks
Is a firmware update similar to a factory reset? I bought a Ledger Nano S Plus on Amazon but got a Ledger Nano X instead. The plastic wrap was already removed and the metal part had a big finger print on it. The online test nevertheless showed that the device is genuine and when I first started it I got the welcome message and then had to set up a new pin and a new seed phrase. When I first connected it to my laptop and Ledger Live it showed me a firmware update that I installed. After that I had to restart with the pin and a completelly new seed phrase again for some reason. However the 3 provided papers for writing down the seed phrase were still empty when I opened the package and I had to use the 2nd seed phrase because the first one was deleted after the firmware update for some reason. Now I don't know if it's a good idea to send my crypto currencies to this ledger or if I should order a new one from Ledger directly.
On their page they mention that their devices are manufactured in different periods and that of course their packaging varies, but for you to be more secure, send yourself about 10 dollars to verify that your device has not been tampered with and is genuine
People if you don’t want to waste your money don’t trust them I lost this year lots of money they are not regulated they don’t warranty for your transactions good luck
I got hit seven days back, did some digging, and this situation reeks of misconduct. Others confirm similar experiences. I didn't need to dig much; it's evident the company, run by amateurs, lacks robust support structures. The fact that someone could siphon off large sums without any authorization confirmation-no emails, texts, or communication-is a glaring flaw in their system.
Mine only turns on when it is plugged in. Odd. I just saw the Welcome screen but the clear bag/seal did look sketchy. I bought mine in advance from Best Buy and picked up the next day.
I just bought my 6th ledger nano. The pop up where it says genuine check doesn't appear for me on my ledger live. Why is that? I have had ledger live installed for 4 years on my PC and already have 5 ledgers connected.

@@Ledger I have four ledgers...when I sent bitcoin from an exchange to one of my wallets..it sent it to two addresses instead of my single ledger address. And in ledger it says “why two addresses” I read that section and still don’t understand why half of the time ledger automatically generated a secondary address for when I received bitcoin
Hi! Change address is completely normal due to BTC UTXO model - each time you receive funds your address will change. This is what contributes to Bitcoin being a pseudonymous network. Also, it's totally safe to reuse addresses, it will just lessen your privacy in the network.
