And according to the comments under that post, change the UserAgent might help.

I see the same. Just installed the latest version, on MacOS, and got stuck at this point.

andy-mortimer commented 4 years ago

Is this the same issue as https://github.com/minecraft-linux/mcpelauncher-ui-qt/issues/6 , now fixed? It looks like it.

Oh, I tried build them from source, it appears as a samsung phone, and login just fine. I'll close this.

andy-mortimer commented 4 years ago

Nice, thanks for following up. I'm currently struggling to get the build from source to work but good to know I'm on the right track!

@MCMrARM does the MacOS prebuilt binary at https://mrarm.io/r/mcpelauncher-osx include this fix? I couldn't find a Help>About with a version number to check it but I'm assuming not because it gives this symptom. I am trying to build from source but it seems recent XCodes don't like 32-bit builds or something; a pre-built version with this fix would be very convenient! :)

andy-mortimer commented 4 years ago

One last comment from me, in case other people are in the same situation and find this thread: the reason I couldn't build from source on MacOS was that I've upgraded to Catalina, and so the required 32-bit parts of MCPELauncher will neither build nor run: https://mcpelauncher.readthedocs.io/en/latest/troubleshooting.html#macos-x-catalina-could-not-find-the-game-launcher So updating the MacOS prebuilt binary is probably fairly futile now
