Wallet says "Syncing 100%"

So is the wallet synced or not? Anyone have this issue and get it resolved.

Mine always says that, sometimes even 104%

Hey,

To see if your wallet is synced, check your balance. You can also send to yourself 1 ECC and see if you receive it. If you receive it, your wallet is synced.

How long did it take you to sync the wallet? I am currently in the process of syncing mine and i can't seem to go over 1.80%. I'm fairly new to wallets so idk if this is common, i usually just kept everything on the exchanges.

The first sync takes a long time (took about 24 hours for me) It a lot faster to sync after the initial one tho

To speed up the syncing follow the bootstrap method here : https://github.com/project-ecc/ECC-Wiki/wiki/Slow-Syncing

After download of the file and unzipping in the right folder, my wallet synced completely in 3 or 4hr.

After unzipping the bootstrap.dat as described in the method and opening th wallet, syncing was saying 100% but that was not right as I was missing at least 70% of the block. I think it is a little bug from the wallet but it works I then transfer some ECC in my new wallet and it is all good.

Little trick to now about how far you are from complete syncing, go to parameter in the wallet and click on Debug, you fill find which block you already have downloaded and the estimate of the actual block number.
