Can confirm the same issue, on current play store version (1.8.112), in addition, I cannot open a wallet (Join Rewards throws up a "please try again" error), or disable the reward icon.

Edit: Android 9/LineageOS 16, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4

I have the same issue. Here is my hardware & software:

• Oneplus 5T running OxygenOS 10.0.0 (Android 10)
• Brave browser version 1.10.95
• Device is Rooted using Magisk
• Device passes SafetyNet checks

Edit: Updated Brave version number and added gif.

Edit 2: Updated Brave version again

I was able to fix the bug by uninstalling and then reinstalling Brave browser from the Google play store. Now the Brave Rewards settings page loads properly.

Having the same issue right now on my OnePlus 5T (Android 8.1.2). Brave version 1.14.86.

Any solution except for reinstalling yet? Cause reinstalling will make me lose my BAT, since the Wallet is not verified yet, right? :/

@JonnyHaystack @Nephatiu Is this still an issue for you in Oct 2021? Please make sure your Brave Browser app is updated to the latest version (as of Oct 2021, it's v1.31.x). Thanks.
