An android app i’m working on uses Google oauth to authenticate users (via AccountManager).
It’s been working fine until yesterday and now whenever the app tries to authenticate and get a google auth token I get the following error:

Logcat shows the following (email removed):

Has anybody seen this RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED error before?
No, but maybe you are sending too many request? Do you have a background service, etc? Try with a different account and maybe consider using Google Play Services, it might be able to at least handle this better.
