Troubleshooting:

I’ve imported the secret phrase of a wallet from another provider into XDEFI Wallet but my account balances are at 0, I have no assets in the “Owned” tab and the address(es) generated after the import are not the same. What is the problem?

This can result from two possibilities:

1. You haven’t imported the right seed phrase

2. You have imported the right seed phrase but the account(s) you have in your MetaMask wallet have been manually imported via private key(s) and are not linked to your wallet’s seedphrase & private key

Method 2: Import XDEFI Wallet with .json keystore

1. Press the extension icon in the top right corner of your web browser

2. From the XDEFI Wallet home screen, click on the three horizontal lines at the top right

3. Select Wallet management

‌4. Select the option Import wallet

5. Select the With keystore tab

6. Click on the Browse button

7. Import the theNameOfYourWallet.json file from your computer

8. Enter the password to decrypt your keystore file and access your wallet

9. Read and agree to the Terms of Use

10. Import
