Is There a Fix for the Unable to Log In Error?

There are a couple different options to try and fix the Unable to Log In Error for Honkai: Star Rail.

  • Check the server status: There is no official server status page, yet, but you can check the Honkai Star Rail Twitter to see if the server has been taken down.
  • Restart the launcher: The age old IT fix can work like magic in this case, though it’s not quite an option on mobile.
  • Disable / Change Your DNS: Check in your mobile settings whether you’re using a private DNS. AdGuard DNS in particular is causing a lot of problems for people trying to connect to Honkai Star Rail.
  • Disable VPN: Using a VPN may cause an error between the service and the server. Disable your VPN and try to log in again.
  • If you’re on a mobile device, switch from Wi-fi to mobile data before attempting to log in again.
  • Reinstall the game: This may fix the error by completely reinstalling all files
  • If all else fails, reach out to HoYoverse via Twitter or Discord for help solving the issue.

There is no big confirmed cause for the 1001_2 or 1001_1 errors making it so you can’t log in, but these are the best options we’ve got for now. Stay tuned for any more updates, as well as a resolution from HoYoverse. Good luck getting into the game, and once you get in check out our Honkai Star Rail guides. Thank you for reading!
