🐛 [FIREBASE_AUTH] SMS code always Expired in some devices (Release Mode)

Bug report

Describe the bug

I have a Flutter app that use's Firebase Auth as authentication system. With the majority of devices, it work's without problems. The problem is that some users using specific devices can't authenticate because every code that is sent to them are expired (like Samsung A03 Core).

Basically, i ask to Firebase to send the code using the verifyPhone method below. If the device completes the verification automatically, the app is redirected to the authenticated app. If not, the user is redirected to a page where the OTP code should be inserted and validated using the method loginWithPhone below. When the problem happens, it is always a firebase/session-expired error in this part of the logic.

I imagine that probably the Firebase is signing the user because it shows their phone numbers in Firebase Auth Console, but i cannot imagine why the verificationCompleted wouldn't trigger if that's the case.


@override
Future<void> verifyPhone({
    required String phone,
    required Function verificationCompletedCallback,
    required Function codeSentCallback,
}) async {
    try {
      await _auth.verifyPhoneNumber(
        phoneNumber: phone,
        timeout: const Duration(seconds: 60),
        verificationCompleted: (PhoneAuthCredential credential) async {
          await _auth.signInWithCredential(credential);

          //Redirect user to the authenticated App
          verificationCompletedCallback();
        },
        verificationFailed: (FirebaseAuthException e) {
          switch (e.code) {
            case "too-many-requests":
              if (kDebugMode) {
                print("verificationFailed: TooManyRequests");
              }
              break;

            default:
              if (kDebugMode) {
                print("verificationFailed: Unknown");
              }
              break;
          }
        },
        codeSent: (String verificationId, int? resendToken) {
          actualCode = verificationId;

          //Redirect user to the page where the code should be inserted
          codeSentCallback();
        },
        codeAutoRetrievalTimeout: (String verificationId) {},
      );
    } on FirebaseAuthException catch (e, stackTrace) {
      switch (e.code) {
        case "invalid-verification-code":
          throw InvalidActionCodeError();
        case "invalid-verification-id":
          throw InvalidActionCodeError();
        default:
          throw AuthenticationError();
      }
    }
  }

@override
  Future<void> loginWithPhone(String smsCode) async {
    try {
      PhoneAuthCredential credential = PhoneAuthProvider.credential(
        verificationId: actualCode,
        smsCode: smsCode,
      );

      await _auth.signInWithCredential(credential);
    } on FirebaseAuthException catch (e, stackTrace) {

      switch (e.code) {
        case "invalid-verification-code":
          throw InvalidActionCodeError();
        case "invalid-verification-id":
          throw InvalidActionCodeError();
        case "session-expired":
          throw ExpiredActionCodeError();
        default:
          throw AuthenticationError();
      }
    }
  }

Steps to reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Try to ask for a SMS on some devices.
Code that come's is always expired.

Expected behavior

The OTP code should be valid when inserted by the user.
