Hey,

This issue is already fixed for the next release of Firebase Auth; the library will correctly throw a network error in this case. We'll need to test that we're handling this new exception in FirebaseUI appropriately, so I'll leave this open until we confirm it's fixed when the new version lands.

@iainmcgin Has the new version you mentioned been released yet?

I tested the authentication flow without a network connection and received the following:

Is there a way I can neatly handle com.google.firebase.FirebaseNetworkException? It would be good to let the user know that the connection failed.

@kz I just released version 0.4.3, I am not exactly sure which commit Iain was referencing but can you check if your issue was fixed?

[kz]

@samtstern Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I have decided to go with FirebaseJS in an Ionic app instead. If I do get this error again while using Firebase for Android in the future, I will be sure to let you know.

[samtstern]

@kz good luck with Ionic! Closing this issue for now, if someone else has the same problem they can open a fresh issue.

Still facing this issue on Android 5.0 . Updated firebase core to 10.0.1.
