Why is it rejecting my TX?

I'm also having this issue with the Verge Tor Electrum 2.4.1 on Windows 10. I was able to perform one transaction then none have worked since.

Ok, so I finally figured this out since there's really no documentation and nothing built into the code to automatically calculate the best fee for your transaction, which is why they get rejected. Ether that or it's just so buggy that it doesn't do what it is supposed to do. Also, I stopped using the Electrum XVG Tor version because there's also a bug there where if you click Tools->Preferences, it doesn't do anything.

That being said, you will want to get the electrum-xvg non tor version here https://github.com/vergecurrency/electrum-xvg/releases. After you download, extract, then launch electrum-xvg, it is going to ask you if you want to create a new wallet or restore. If you have your old seed phrase, you can choose to restore your wallet using the seen phrase. This is what I did since i wanted to access my coins from the original wallet I created. When that is done, the main window will show up.

Next, you will want to click the little red dot in the lower right hand corner. It will be red because the latest version also doesn't contain the latest electrum servers. In the box next to Auto-connect, paste e2.verge-electrum.com in there, hit tab to move your cursor, then click Ok. You might have to wait a bit but it should connect. If no,t relaunch.

Once it connects it will synchronize and you will then see your balance in the lower left hand corner. That's when you know you are good to make a transaction. To make the transaction successful you are going to want to change the fee manually. To do that you will click Tools->Preferences and then check the box next to Set Transaction Fees Manually, then click ok.

Finally, you are going to click the Send tab, enter the address you want to send to, the amount you want to send, and also type in the Fee amount. That is where it gets tricky. For perspective, I had 793 XVG. I started with an amount of 792 with a fee of 1 which was tx rejected. Then I tried 791 with a fee of 2, also tx rejected. It finally went through after using 790 with a fee of 3.

Again, my opinion is that there are so many bugs and also very little documentation on how to use these wallets. It's very discouraging to say the least.

These are all the bugs and or missing features that I have found. Some have been reported by me already.

Electrum-XVG-TOR version 2.4.1:

  1. Tools->Preferences does nothing when you click it. Reported here but it doesn't appear the devs are looking at that section much https://github.com/vergecurrency/electrum-xvg-tor/issues/22.

Electrum-XVG and Electrum-XVG-TOR version 2.4.1:

  1. There's no mechanism to automatically adjust the fee so you don't have to sit there all day guessing what the fee should be.
  2. Out of the box they won't connect. Would be nice if there was a mechanism built in to automatically get the newest servers. I don't think I would have to report this one, it's all over Reddit, Youtube, and there was even a sticky in the dev Telegram group.

Wraith 4.0.1

  1. You can't lock the wallet once it has been unlocked. Reported that here https://github.com/vergecurrency/VERGE/issues/497.
  2. The huge button on the small buttons on the left nav pane does nothing.
  3. You can't restore a wallet using a seed phrase if you used electrum to create a wallet with a seen phrase. Should be a feature.
  4. If you dump your private keys from an electrum wallet and import them into wraith, you never see your balance for that address until another transaction occurs, even though it synchronized with the blockchain. It also doesn't pull in all your other receive addresses, I think you have to import each individual address and it's corresponding private key. Kind of a kludge in its current state.

Which button is the "huge button"? If you mean the Export button, it does work in some views.

We have a bug on file when, someone cancels the transaction while publishing it to the network and tries to resend it, it causes the server transaction broadcast failed loop and reject all the transaction broadcasts from that point until the client disconnects from the network and that specific electrum server is restarted. This is a bug in the client code which has been identified. This is most likely the cause not the transaction fee.
