Resolving Login Issues in the StreetSmart App

Overview

The error "Starting" with a continuously spinning loading indicator occurs when attempting to log in to the StreetSmart app. This issue was identified as a stale/incorrect device session on the server, causing login failures and app freezing on the PIN entry screen. A DNS configuration change was applied to address Verizon connection issues, and the problem was resolved after these steps.

Solution

Follow these steps to resolve the login issue in the StreetSmart app:

  1. Force-Close the StreetSmart App:
    • On Android: Go to Recent Apps → swipe StreetSmart away (or Settings → Apps → StreetSmart → Force stop)
  2. Re-open StreetSmart and Attempt Login Again:
    • In most cases, login should work immediately after force-closing and reopening.
  3. If the Device is Still Stuck on the PIN Screen:
    • Deactivate/Clear the device activation from the web portal:
  4. Alternative (if portal access isn’t available):
    • Clear the app’s local data (cache + storage), then retry:
      • Android: Settings → Apps → StreetSmart → Storage → Clear Data (not just Clear Cache)
      • Then reopen the app and log in again.
  5. DNS Configuration Change:
    • A DNS configuration change was applied to address Verizon connection issues.

Verification: Confirm that the affected user(s) are able to log in now, or if you’re still seeing the PIN screen after the steps above.

Note: If the login works but you are seeing other issues like a red sync button or frozen menus, follow the steps to send logs to the server for further analysis.
