I'm trying to use Sparrow Wallet with the Ledger Nano S that I have used with Ledger Live for the past three years. I'm unable to show my transaction history or funds in Sparrow. I've already reset the birthdate one month before my earliest transaction but it's not discovering any.
Based on a previous posting here with the same issue I see that Ledger Live shows a Derivation of 44' /0' /0' /0/8 while Sparrow Wallet (using Native Segwit) shows a derivation of m/84' /0' /0'. Is this my problem?
If so, any suggestions on how to fix it?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

You probably have the wrong script type. Follow these steps:

  1. Create a new wallet with File > New Wallet
  2. Set the Script Type field to Legacy
  3. Import the Ledger as a Connected Hardware Wallet
  4. Apply to save
  5. Check the addresses match

Yes, Craig, that did it. Thanks so much for your help. I had hit a brick wall.

Craig, I'm attempting the same thing on a different Ledger Nano S but this time the addresses don't match. Can you help me out on this?
thanks, Bo

I suggest asking on https://t.me/SparrowWallet - Github is not the right place for support.
