If you are a long-time holder, your problem could be related to #327 because as I understand older Ledger versions were not BIP44 compliant.

I have an Nano-S (think it started with Firmware 1.5x)

I still also have not found a solution getting ETC wallet number using my Nano-S recovery and bip39!

I have got the private keys using the Mnemonic words for: BTC segwit ( using BIP49 tab ==> BIP32 Derivation Path = m/49'/0'/0'/0 ) BTC native segwit ( using BIP84 tab ==> BIP32 Derivation Path = m/84'/0'/0'/0/0 ) ETH legacy (using BIP32 tab - "Cusom derivation Path" and using m/44'/60'/0' and m/44'/60'/0'/0 - seems depending on when you created an account)

But: I'm also still searching the correct derivation path for ETC (tried m/44'/6a'x/y/z where a is 0 or 1 and x,y,z is 0 or 0'

I have found a Nano-S where m/44'/60'/160720'/0' was used as derivation path to generate the ETC wallets ! (even ETC should be 61) (Seems the account was created at the time where the Nanos were managed via chrome-plugin)

So try:

  1. Enter your "BIP39 Mnemonic" words
  2. Select "Coin" ETC
  3. Select tab "BIP32"
  4. Enter m/44'/60'/160720'/0' as "BIP32 Derivation Path"

As result the m/44'/60'/160720'/0'/0 could be your first ETC account.
