The date is a LANDMARK, not a boundary: BirthHeightResolver takes the

margin, so the scan actually begins somewhat EARLIER and some pre-date
history does arrive. (Observed: a wallet restored with 22 Sep 2026

* restore whose keys predate the chosen date is scanned in full — and
* must not be flagged.
* - dashj regime: `BlockchainServiceImpl`'s fresh-store checkpointing
* reads `serviceConfig.getWalletCreationDate() ?: wallet.earliestKeyCreationTime`
* — the user's date wins OUTRIGHT there, so the same input can skip past
* a genuine key time that the SDK regime would have honoured. The two
* rules are reproduced separately rather than averaged, because a status
* line that is honest about the wrong engine is not honest.
*
* Comparing the resulting floor against the wallet's own key time is what
* makes this a statement about UNSCANNED HISTORY rather than about a
* preference: a seed restore stamps `Constants.EARLIEST_HD_SEED_CREATION_TIME`
* (2015-03-29) as the key time, so any later floor provably skips chain the
* wallet could have been paid on.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Keep the warning until the scan actually covers the earlier history.

When Settings clears the creation-date preference without widening the scan, this flow emits null. boundedScanStartSecs() then returns null, so the Network Monitor hides its warning and the home header removes “Synced from,” although earlier transactions may still be missing. The PR reports this behavior from device testing. Track the scan’s persisted coverage instead of using the current preference as proof that the scan is complete. Retire the warning only when a scan has covered the earlier range.

Review comment at
@wallet/src/de/schildbach/wallet/service/L1SyncStatusService.kt at line 685:
Update the `observeWalletCreationDate()` flow so clearing the creation-date
preference does not imply that scanning has covered earlier history. Use
persisted scan coverage to keep the warning visible until a scan actually covers
the earlier range, then retire it.
