Since a couple of days, I’ve been trying to restore my Signal account from an old device, after moving to xperia x-iii.
- Transferring the backup and opening it with the passphrase went fine, but the code that was sent by the signal server was considered consistently incorrect (tried 3 times over the last days).
- Afterwards, it would not even send an SMS, but just claim that there are too many attempts (giving a waiting time, which I always let pass).
I gave up and simply tried to register a fresh signal account. But the same thing happened also here.
- There is also the peculiar note that says “Missing Google Play Services”. This shouldn’t appear, should it?
- Signal was downloaded first from the APKPure store, and then deleted and downloaded again from Aurora store.
Maybe someone has had a similar experience, so any clue would be welcome.
