@MRVDH this means the fix first will appear in dev, then in beta and then in release. Each step is a version bump and takes ~ 3 weeks https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/wiki/Brave-Release-Schedule.

Just want to point out that this is not a problem with properly displaying a warning message. The sync code I enter is correct. The button just doesn’t do anything. See https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/issues/4756

Users are still facing the issue. Hence re-opening the issue and removing a Not actionable label

@AlexeyBarabash after deliberating with the @brave/uplift-approvers team, we’re going to let this ride the trains from Nightly to Release. There’s a few +1’s from the community but I don’t think this is critical enough to warrant an uplift. 0.68.x has ~a week before release so we try to only uplift critical fixes 👍

Also having the same issue with a valid sync code on a fresh (so latest) version of brave. Tried reloading with empty cache and hard reload with no difference. No errors in console.

EDIT: Managed to work around this by either bookmarking any web page or attempting to create your own sync chain, then cancelling. Not entirely sure which of these made it work, but it seems to have synced now.

If someone else could test this workaround, it may help fix this issue.

After messing around a bit it seems to work to do a hard reload (cmd+shift+R) on brave://sync page.
