SignIn Dialog from GoogleSignInClient.getSignInIntent() not returning correct result after rotation

[aaronvargas]

When running the sample for SignInClient everything works correctly when no device rotation occurs. But if you rotate the device after showing the SignIn dialog you receive incorrect results in onActivityResult.

• Device: Nexus 9
• OS version: Android N
• SDK version: 26
• [Android] Google Play Services version: 11.6.2

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start sample with device in portrait orientation and select SignInActitivity
2. tap Sign In and wait for Account selector Dialog
3. Rotate device to landscape, now select account
4. UI doesn't update to show logout and disconnect. onActivityResult() shows correct Request code of 9001. Result code of cancelled (although account was chosen) and task has ApiException 12502 - SIGN_IN_CURRENTLY_IN_PROGRESS

I've confirmed that there are not several attempts to startActivityForResult() for the signIn attempt as the error indicates.

@aaronvargas thanks for this report. I can confirm that is the case, I will look into it.

Hmm looks like this is a known issue (69275024 internally) I will chase it down. Thanks for the reminder!

Has this bug been resolved?

[samtstern]

@vinaysshenoyhl no it has not yet been resolved, I will try and get an update on this issue.

Awesome, thanks! I'm not in any particular hurry to see it resolved since it's not blocking us on anything, just wanted to confirm that the issue is still open and the error wasn't due to anything I was doing wrong.

@samtstern I just encountered this issue myself and thought I'd broken stuff in my refactor! 😱 Hope this gets fixed soon, for now, I've added a hack.

[samtstern]

This should be fixed in the next release of play services (whatever comes after 12.0.0)

@samtstern we are still getting this error with version 16.0.1.
We see a SIGN_IN_CURRENTLY_IN_PROGRESS (12502) with a SIGN_IN_CANCELLED (12501) shortly after.

android.content.Intent com.google.android.gms.auth.api.signin.GoogleSignInClient.getSignInIntent()' on a null object reference

explain please

Is it resolved? I am having same issue now too. As an workaround, I did following handling

            if( e.getStatusCode()==12502){
                /*
                * https://github.com/googlesamples/google-services/issues/345
                */
                GoogleSignInAccount accountOld = GoogleSignIn.getLastSignedInAccount(activity.getApplicationContext());
                if (accountOld != null) {
                    LOG.info("Got cached sign-in");
                    handleSignedInAccount(accountOld);
                }   
            }
