Invalid Authenticator 'Error'
So... I do now have this terrible mobile authenticator activated for more than 7 days and I have to trade some of my skins away. Well... guess what... I can't because Steam is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with me! "Invalid" authenticator is what I am getting every single time I am trying to confirm a trade with my ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ mobile auth., but I do have the correct time zone on my mobile and I do also NOT (!!!) have a 2nd phone with this mobile auth. activated!

What the f can I do now? I can't even disable it anymore - it keeps telling me that the authenticator is giving flase codes (yeah ofc... I can log in without a problem with the codes the auth. gives me ffs).

Make sure the time on your phone is correct

Thanks for your answer... but if you would have read my text you would know that the time on my phone is correct. Quoting myself: "but I do have the correct time zone on my mobile and I do also NOT (!!!) have a 2nd phone with this mobile auth. activated!"
