Valid hex cannot be signed with ethereumSignMessage

[sidsverma]

I am trying to do personal_sign some hex string data using metamask on ledger. There is no callback after I sign it on the ledger device.
The code:

ledgerjs/packages/web3-subprovider/src/index.js

Line 113 in 12b678c

async function signPersonalMessage(msgData) {

There is currently no way to sign hex messages using ethereumSignMessage.

Is this issue currently being worked on? Curious about the status here, I have users with ERC721 tokens stuck in their Ledger because of this signing issue. This is affecting the personal_sign method in Metamask + Ledger. Metamask + Trezor had a similar issue, but was fixed when they started accepting hex string data: MetaMask/eth-trezor-keyring#16

It would be great if Ledger added support for this.

I agree. Ledger support for this would be very helpful.

Ledger support to sign hex messages is needed. Is there an eta on resolving this?

@gre is there any update on this issue?

@gre Please update. I can't do specific tasks with my ledger device without this.
