Troubleshooting
Having issues with Quik.Meme? This guide covers common problems and solutions.
Wallet Connection Issues
Cannot Connect Wallet
Problem: Wallet won't connect to the platform
Solutions:
- Make sure MetaMask is installed and unlocked
- Check you're on BSC network (Chain ID: 56)
- Refresh the page and try again
- Clear browser cache and cookies
- Try a different browser
- Update MetaMask to latest version
Wrong Network
Problem: Connected but transactions fail
Solution: Switch to BSC Mainnet:
- Open MetaMask
- Click network dropdown
- Select "BNB Smart Chain"
- If not listed, add manually:
- Network Name: BNB Smart Chain
- RPC URL: https://bsc-dataseed.binance.org/
- Chain ID: 56
- Currency Symbol: BNB
- Block Explorer: https://bscscan.com
Wallet Disconnects Frequently
Problem: Wallet keeps disconnecting
Solutions:
- Disable other wallet extensions temporarily
- Check MetaMask settings for auto-lock timer
- Keep the tab active (some wallets disconnect on inactive tabs)
- Try incognito mode to test for extension conflicts
Transaction Issues
Transaction Fails Immediately
Problem: Transaction fails right after submitting
Common Causes:
Insufficient BNB for Gas
- Keep at least $5 worth of BNB for fees
- Check your BNB balance in MetaMask
- Buy more BNB if needed
Slippage Too Low
- Increase slippage to 1-2%
- For volatile tokens, try 3-5%
- Access settings in swap interface
Amount Exceeds Balance
- Check your token balance
- Try clicking MAX button instead
- Account for gas fees when swapping all BNB
Token Not Approved
- First transaction approves token
- Second transaction executes swap
- Both need to succeed
Transaction Stuck Pending
Problem: Transaction pending for long time
Solutions:
Check BSCScan:
- Copy transaction hash from MetaMask
- View on bscscan.com
- See actual status
If Actually Stuck:
- Try MetaMask "Speed Up" feature
- Or wait - BSC typically confirms in 10-30 seconds
- If pending over 5 minutes, may need to cancel
If Failed:
- Check error message on BSCScan
- Retry with higher gas
- Check if slippage needs adjustment
Transaction Reverted
Problem: Transaction reverted with error
Error Messages:
"Insufficient output amount"
