Brave android app crashes when I tried linking my solana wallet

I was trying to link my solana wallet to the brave Android. But when I reach the verification page and click on verify my address button the app crashes.

Error message:

Something went wrong

There was an unexpected error and we weren’t able to finalize the connection. Please try again.

This is not a crash, but an error message provided when hitting the max connections. If you have previously connected 4 devices or profiles to this address, you must use a different and/or new Solana address.

The app crashes after i hit confirm connection. Also I am very confident that this solana account hasn’t been connected to any other device for brave reward.

But I will still check if the number of connections is the issue. Any other suggestions if you have would be helpful

Do you have any recent crash logs available at brave://crashes

I have some crash logs and those are reproducible as well. But I am not sure how to share those.

Would you mind copy/paste the recent Crash IDs in plain text here? We can investigate.

FYI for feedback, since clearly it was crashing and you assumed incorrectly, don’t you think if a user reached max connections, THAT is what the error message should actually state if true?

I’m a dev too, in fact from the assembler days, a generic “Something went wrong” is always explained by someone being lazy and too bothered to just “type” out what they want to convey, leaving users frustrated. Yes, it means typing a message for all known scenarios that a user might run into. But at what point was “Max Connections Reached” too hard when the max allowed is apparently “4”? You should have known someone would hit that in 2025?

And in this case, it made you incorrectly assume about something because the error was literally too generic as they provided a screenshot showing just that, they knew it was a crash, their log says crash, you said no not a crash, well it was.. :sweat_smile:

Thanks for the feedback. We have a PR up to show more specific messaging. I’ll ping the team again to see where we’re at with it. https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/48902

What Brave and Android version are you experiencing this on? Thanks for confirming!

Thank you! I’ve escalated to the team and we’re reviewing.

How will I know when the issue is resolved?

This was fixed recently and will be resolved in the 1.86x release.

I will have to update the brave browser that will fix the issue?

It’s currently resolved in Brave Beta and will be fixed in the production version of Brave with the upcoming 1.86 release. This is scheduled for early January. You’ll need to download/install the Beta version if you wish to link immediately. Thanks!

Is it possible to download beta version for Android devices? If so I am not aware of where to find the beta version of the app? Also are there any known risks for the beta version?
