“No eligible accounts can be found” error on sign out despite disabling Smart Lock

[ifeins]

Step 1: Describe your environment

• Android device: Samsung S7
• Android OS version: 7.0.0 (though it happened on other versions)
• Google Play Services version: 11.9.75
• Firebase/Play Services SDK version: 11.8.0
• FirebaseUI version: 3.2.1

Step 2: Describe the problem:

I'm using Google authentication through Firebase Auth UI to login users to my app.
In the app I'm developing I've added a sign out button which allow the user to switch the associated Google account.
When the sign out button is clicked an exception is thrown (see observed result section).

I've previously opened a StackOverflow thread on this and was asked to open an issue here.
See this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48529851/firebase-auth-ui-no-eligible-accounts-can-be-found-error-on-sign-out

Observed Results:

The following exception is thrown:

Expected Results:

I expected the sign out to work successfully and not throw an exception.

Relevant Code:

This is the sign out code I'm using:

private void signOut() {
    AuthUI.getInstance()
            .signOut(this)
            .addOnCompleteListener((task) -> {
                if (task.isSuccessful()) {
                    User.setCurrentUser(null);
                    showSignInDialog();
                } else {
                    Log.e(TAG, "signOut: Failed to sign out", task.getException());
                }
            });
}

This is the code I'm using to perform sign in (notice that I disable smart lock):

private void showSignInDialog() {
    List<AuthUI.IdpConfig> providers = Collections.singletonList(
            new AuthUI.IdpConfig.Builder(AuthUI.GOOGLE_PROVIDER).build()
    );

    Intent intent = AuthUI.getInstance()
            .createSignInIntentBuilder()
            .setIsSmartLockEnabled(false)
            .setAvailableProviders(providers)
            .build();
    startActivityForResult(intent, RC_SIGN_IN);
}

I've also attempted to disable SmartLock on the device itself but the exception is still being thrown.

@ifeins thanks for raising this.

So signOut looks like this:

    @NonNull
    public Task<Void> signOut(@NonNull Context context) {
        mAuth.signOut();
        return Tasks.whenAll(
                signOutIdps(context),
                GoogleApiUtils.getCredentialsClient(context).disableAutoSignIn());
    }

and signOutIdps is pretty simple as well:

    private Task<Void> signOutIdps(@NonNull Context context) {
        try {
            LoginManager.getInstance().logOut();
        } catch (NoClassDefFoundError e) {
            // Do nothing: this is perfectly fine if the dev doesn't include Facebook/Twitter
            // support
        }

        try {
            TwitterProvider.signOut(context);
        } catch (NoClassDefFoundError e) {
            // See comment above
            // Note: we need to have separate try/catch statements since devs can include
            // _either_ one of the providers. If one crashes, we still need to sign out of
            // the other one.
        }

        return GoogleSignIn.getClient(context, GoogleSignInOptions.DEFAULT_SIGN_IN).signOut();
    }

So this is almost definitely coming from the disableAutoSignIn() call.

The good news is that you can safely ignore this error., although it's definitely a pain to detect so we should fix it. I have some ideas for how we can work around it in FirebaseUI but I'm also going to raise this with the SmartLock folks.

@ifeins I bet this comes from disabling SmartLock at the account level on your device, did you see this error before you did that?

Edit: yep that's the trick, I was able to reproduce.

[samtstern]

@ifeins fix implemented, will be included in 3.2.2

[ifeins]

@samtstern Thanks for the quick turnaround 👍

This issue happened both when SmartLock was enabled and disabled on the device.

[samtstern]

This has been fixed and released in version 3.2.2.

@samtstern Thanks for the fix, I had this issue in a side project which I didn't touch for a very long time, so took me a while to verify this. But it's working great now :)

[samtstern]

@ifeins thanks for verifying!

Hey guys,
Im using com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth:4.2.0 and when I try to login with google I get...

W/SmartLockViewModel: Non-resolvable exception: com.google.android.gms.common.api.ApiException: 16: No eligible accounts can be found.

E/AuthUI: A sign-in error occurred.

Is this still the same issue as above?

[ewaldbenes]

Hi,

I get the same error as @aidanmack with version 4.2.0. Any news on that?

Thanks!
