Firmware and update considerations

Use official update flows only.

Pause if an update page asks for recovery words.

Keep device model and Ledger Live version context ready for official support.

Recovery phrase safety warning

Never share your recovery phrase, seed phrase, private keys, PIN, or wallet backup with anyone. No legitimate Ledger support flow should ask you to type recovery words into a website, support chat, remote-access session, or validation form.

Common issues users search for

Setup flow uncertainty.

Firmware or app update prompts.

Unexpected zero balance after restore.

Phishing sites imitating Ledger activation.

Scam and fake support warning

Be cautious with search ads, DMs, fake phone numbers, cloned wallet sites, fake firmware pages, and recovery services. Official wallet support links should explain safe next steps without asking for secrets or remote control of your computer.
