Users Still Being Signed Out Despite Firebase Auth v24.0.1 Fix

[zjamshidi]

The regression introduced in v23.2.1 is not fully fixed, and it's still happening. It has affected many of our users.

Fatal Exception: com.google.firebase.FirebaseNetworkException: A network error (such as timeout, interrupted connection or unreachable host) has occurred.

Hi @zjamshidi, thank you for raising this. I tried reproducing this issue as described in the original issue #7111 , however, I haven't been able to replicate the issue.

What I did was:

• Using Email/ Password, log in on app with Firebase Auth 23.2.0
• Close app, clear from recent app list
• Update Firebase Auth version to 24.0.1
• Relaunch the app. The user is still logged in.

Based on the stacktrace you shared, it looks to me that you're experiencing a different issue. Could you provide more details? Aside from that, it would help us a lot if you can also share an MCVE/ Code snippet and/or steps to reproduce the issue. Thanks!

It might be a different issue. Let me give you more details. I was getting so many FirebaseNetworkExceptions, and the user needed to log in every time the app was opened. The crash was

Fatal Exception: com.google.firebase.FirebaseNetworkException: A network error (such as timeout, interrupted connection or unreachable host) has occurred.

Then I upgraded the Auth SDK version to 24.0.1, and the exception changed. I don't know exactly how to reproduce it, but the number of crashes is significant.
