On my Android (LG Optimus), signing in with LinkedIn doesn’t work because:

1) I can’t see both of the challenge words needed to enter — the screen is too narrow. Screen won’t swipe, and turning it sideways doesn’t rotate it. (Auto-rotate is set to "on" on my phone.)

2) Tried a sound challenge instead, but it didn’t work — seemed like it was downloading, turned the volume all the way up, but didn't hear or see anything.

3) The challenge “words” are just collections of hard-to-memorize letters -- which would be fine except you can’t see them while you’re typing because the keyboard covers them up. So if you forget some of the letters, you fail the challenge. Try another challenge, have the same problem, etc. … (And again, can’t swipe screen so as to be able to see the words.)

(I posted this problem as a blog comment, too.)

Yes, I signed in with my existing LinkedIn account. Maybe it has to do with whether you already have the LI app on your phone/have signed in via phone previously? I don't have the LI phone app.

This was a UI bug that we fixed in the 1.1 update. Please upgrade and this problem should go away. Sorry for the inconvinience.
