Starting from release 1.5.5 looking at that XML file and directly installing the April 29 pre-beta, Gnucash for Android fails to start. There is a brief black screen then the apps page re-appears. The first time there was a list of files to open, but I was not expecting that and I cancelled. Now it won't go back to that window. That is not the same as when I manually un-install 1.5.5 before installing the pre-beta. Going back to one of your other questions, yes, there are many brokerage accounts with many stock and mutual fund accounts with purchases, sales and current balances in those securities. I was hoping to just ignore them for now. My default currency is US Dollars but I may have one or two expense accounts in CAD from years ago, although I do not use them now. As for the other question, I do not know how to identify a template. I remember that I accidentally created one once in release 2.4.something, and I never succeeded in removing it, but that was long ago. It continues to pop up when updating security prices. If you can help me to find it, I should be able to extract it and, if necessary, sanitize it for your perusal.
