Set up MFA Again on New Phone

Problem

MFA is not working after receiving a new mobile phone

Environment (ie: Product build, OS, Software, Firewall, Proxy, Internet Service Provider, etc)

New Mobile Device

Resolution

Add a NEW CONTACT METHOD (phone call, text or MS Authenticator app) using https://mysignins.microsoft.com. See instructions in Second Method for Multi-Factor Authentication article. 

If you are able to login using your old mobile device, this will allow you to generate a new QR Code to use with the new device.

See instructions in Generate a QR Code for a New Device article.  

Cause

The MS Authenticator app is tied to a device and you will need to register the new device under your security information.
