Introduction
The Unsupported Chain ID error is an issue encountered by many users when attempting to use Trust Wallet on PancakeSwap. This error is caused by a mismatch in the network identifier or chain identifier used by the decentralized application and the blockchain network that Trust Wallet is connected to. In this document, we'll explain how to resolve this error and get back to sending and receiving tokens on Trust Wallet and PancakeSwap.
Causes of Unsupported Chain ID Error
The unsupported chain ID error is most commonly seen on Trust Wallet, when attempting to interact with the PancakeSwap decentralized exchange. The underlying cause is that the decentralized applications need to be on the same network and have the same chain-ID configured. Before proceeding further, let’s understand the opportunity causes of this error:
Trust Wallet connecting to the wrong network: The Trust wallet application can connect to multiple networks simultaneously. If the network you’re connecting to is not the same one with which PancakeSwap is configured, then you’ll get the unsupported chain ID error.
Wrong Network ID in PancakeSwap: The Unsupported Chain ID error is also caused by an incorrect network ID being used in the PancakeSwap decentralized exchange.
How to Resolve Unsupported Chain ID Error
Step 1: Check the Network in Trust Wallet
The first thing to do when this error occurs is to check the associated network with Trust Wallet. To do this, open the Trust Wallet app and tap the networks icon located at the top right of the page. This will display a list of all the networks the wallet is connected to. Make sure the network says “Ethereum Mainnet”. If not, then change the network to the main network in order to resolve this error.
Step 2: Check the Chain Id in The Trust Wallet
After changing the network in Trust Wallet, it is important to also check the Chain ID. To do this, open the Trust Wallet app and tap the Networks icon located at the top right of the page. Then select Settings and scroll down until you see Chain ID. Make sure this is set to 1 (Ethereum Mainnet). If not, then you need to change the Chain ID to 1 to resolve the unsupported chain ID error.
Step 3: Set the PancakeSwap Chain ID
The Unsupported Chain ID error occurs when the chain ID in PancakeSwap is not set the same as the one in Trust Wallet. To change the chain ID in PancakeSwap, open the application and select “Settings”. Then scroll down and check the Chain ID option. Make sure this is set to “Mainnet-1”, which is the same as the chain ID in Trust Wallet. If not, then change the settings to “Mainnet-1” and save the settings to resolve the Unsupported Chain ID error.
