A BIP-0032 compatible Hierarchical Deterministic Groestlcoin Wallet



After a measure of hard work adapting the latest Bitcoin wallet (v4.14) for Android to Groestlcoin, the Groestlcoin Android wallet beta (v0.20) is ready for testing.
The app allows you to send and receive Groestlcoins on your device using QR codes and URI links.
When using this app, please back up your wallet and email them to yourself!  This will save your wallet in a password protected file.  Then your coins can be retrieved even if you loose your phone.

It is appreciated if feedback of the following is provided:
1.  Can you receive coins? (small amounts to avoid losing them)
2.  Can you send coins?
3.  Can you scan a QR code from another phone.
4.  Can you request coins via email or other android service?
5.  How long does it take to sync the blockchain?
6.  How much space does it take up on your phone?
7.  Does it calculate exchange rates properly?
8.  Are you able to sweep paper wallet?

If the app crashes you can send the report via email or another method if your phone allows it.  Reports of errors can also be posted in this topic.
To close the app, simply press the back button until you reach your home screen.  The app will close itself (there is no need for a disconnect option).
This application is licensed under the GPL version 3. There is no warranty and no party shall be made liable to you for damages. If you lose coins due to this app, no compensation will be given. Use this app solely at your own risk.

The application may have unfound bugs and problems. To leave feedback: 
1.  PM hashengineering on bitcointalk: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=155038
2.  Email: [email protected]
3.  Reports of errors can also be posted in this topic.
