verify phone number not working

[MoradAbdelgaber]

vrifyPhoneNumber method not returning any value .then() function not running although the sms is received. so the verification Id is always undefined.

Please share the code to sort out the problem.

However, have you added you domain in phone auth as valid domain?

There seem to be several related issues regarding phone auth. I was using firebasex plugin then tried this one. The result (on iOS) is the same - app crashes. On Android needs more investigation.

Did you ever get this working?
When I try the verifyPhoneNumber(phone, timeout) using the number of the installed SIM, the auto-verification occurs despite that I put timeout = 0, I do not receive an SMS and the .then() does not get executed at all, hence there is no verificationId to use in firebase.auth.signInWithCredential() and get the user authenticated for other firebase funcitons.
When I put a phone number of a DIFFERENT SIM than the one installed (I have a 2nd phone with a different number), I RECEIVE the SMS on the 2nd phone, and the .then() function GETS EXECUTED as expected!
Is there a way to either: (a) fix the handling of the timeout=0 and properly receive the SMS and call the .then() function? or (b) receive the verificationId in the onAuthStateChanged event handler, so that we can authenticate the user from code running on this handler instead of the .then() function?
Thanks!
