[4.1.0.24 Xperia 10ii] Strava Android app: unable to login

REPRODUCIBILITY (% or how often): always
BUILD ID = OS VERSION (Settings > About product): 4.1.0.24
HARDWARE (XA2, Xperia 10…): Xperia 10ii dual-sim
UI LANGUAGE: German
REGRESSION: (compared to previous public release: Yes, No, ?): Yes

DESCRIPTION:

Strava app is unable to establish login to Strava account.

PRECONDITIONS:

Aliendalvik, Micro-G 0.2.19, and Strava 204.11 installed
Permissions granted
Signature spoofing configured and working, Micro-G self-testing without issues

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Start Strava app
  2. Provide credentials (email address, password)

EXPECTED RESULT:

Strava app opens, and shows owner’s feed

ACTUAL RESULT:

Strava displays message “Unable to verify your account data” (German: “Bei der Verifizierung deiner Kontodaten ist ein Fehler aufgetreten.”)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

I noticed the issue when setting up my new phone (Xperia 10ii). Because I was unable to login to Strava on that phone, I tried to logout from Strava on my old phone (Xperia 10 plus), and even reset my Strava password. Now I am unable to use Strava, on both phones. Strava had been working without issue on my old phone with more or less the same configuration. Of cause I never tested to logout and login.
Needless to say that my Strava credentials do work in the browser, and with Strava apps on iOS and native Android.

It seems Strava uses Google captcha during login, and that only works if Google SafetyNet is active in Micro-G configuration. Problem solved for now :slightly_smiling_face:
