Merge pull request #4645

This change fixes a bug in the Monero wallet setup wizard. Previously, when restoring or creating a wallet from seed/keys, the wallet was first saved with a blank or temporary password before the user's chosen password was applied. If appl…

This commit updates the Monero GUI wallet's message-signing screen so that when a user verifies a signature, the app now reports extra details: whether the signature is valid, which key type was used (spend key, view key, or unknown), and …

This Monero wallet update fixes a bookkeeping bug. When a wallet imported a list of its owned outputs and that list was smaller than a previous import, internal lookup maps (key images and public keys) could still point to entries that no …

This commit simplifies how Monero's simplewallet decides whether a payment ID is a real encrypted ID or a dummy placeholder. Previously, the wallet checked both the payment ID value and whether any destination was an integrated address, an…

wallet2: trim stale transfer maps after output imports

This Monero wallet patch cleans up internal lookup tables (key-image and public-key indexes) when the list of owned transaction outputs is shrunk, for example during an output import. Without the cleanup, those indexes could point to entri…

simplewallet: classify payment IDs by their payload

This small change removes a consistency check in Monero's command-line wallet when loading a saved transaction. Previously, the wallet verified that a 'dummy' payment ID label matched a special zero-value payment ID. Now it labels the paym…
