2fa won't work now? - Black Kodak - Jan 1, 2016
I removed 2fa from my account because the code wouldn't work anymore? Now i removed it all, then im trying to add it back ect ( scanned barcode) and on the validate page, i try to enter the code, and it says it isn't valid??
I'm using authy btw.

Are you sure you're inputting the correct code

150% sure I am.
Only 1 code to input.

You know the code changes every 30 seconds right? Or am I missing something?

You shou'd click on reset, for your phone there is an option "Scan QR".

Yea I've tried that too, but I go to validate phase and enter the code it gives me on my phone and still doesn't work..

Hmm, that's strange. Have you tried using another authentication app to test it?

Are you using Authy? If not, please do. I lost all my shit with Google Auth.

Just had a problem too. Unsure what's going on. I had to deactivate my own. But then again I was doing changes and testing a week ago.
I'm looking into the code to see if there is any errors.
After my reset the code seems to work.
Also adjusted server time which may have been the problem but not likely as it was only off by 3 seconds.

I had this same problem when I switched phones a couple weeks ago, I had to disable 2FA altogether then re-enable it. I know I was entering the code right several times too.

Could have been the time was off. The time is very sensitive. I have to setup NTPD so that it will keep it tight.
Just tested with 4 members with old Gauth codes so it does appear to be working.

Awesome man, just fixed mine.
I was using google authentication, switched to authy, set it up and worked first try.
