Common Errors: "Can't Verify Ledger® Wallet" & "Unable to Ledger® Trezor"
If you encounter a “Can’t verify Ledger® Wallet” message, it may indicate mismatched firmware or an outdated Ledger® Live version. Update both components, restart, and try again. The “Unable to Ledger® Trezor” error appears when users mistakenly attempt to connect a Trezor device to Ledger® Live — note that Ledger® and Trezor operate within different ecosystems and require separate apps.
Ledger® Account Recovery & 2FA Reset
Lost your Ledger® device? Don’t panic — your crypto can be recovered using your 24-word recovery phrase. Enter this phrase on a new or reset Ledger® device to regain full access. For Ledger® 2FA reset, remember that Ledger® does not handle third-party 2FA settings (used on exchanges or accounts). You’ll need to reset it directly with those services.
When to Contact Ledger® Help Center
Contact the Ledger® Help Center if your app continues to malfunction, or you face issues like unrecognized devices or corrupted firmware. Avoid sharing your recovery phrase — legitimate support will never ask for it.
