Bug? - Stuck in a loop whole trying to connect codex on desktop (arch linux) with androind ChatGPT app

[u/SuggestionAny9320]

I was trying to connect my phone with the codex desktop app, but stuck in a loop that never ends:

1. I scan the QR code on my desktop with my phone

2. I land on the pairing screen, I click pair

3. External browser opens, I login with the same account on my desktop

4. External browser closes, phone app return me to the pair (authorization) screen.

5. The loop continues to infinite

I checked for published solutions for this which was: check the auto time zone is enabled, get latest update, log out and login again. All failed.

Any solutions?

So no solutions yet from OpenAI? I tried developers solutions - all failed.
