Anyone else having trouble with google 2FA authentication?

I went to bed last night with a fully working Developer and Rooted S5 phone - workup this morning and my phone would not access any google service. Thought maybe my google account had been hacked (password reset), but tablet and laptop still connected just fine.

I reentered my id, password, and 2fa codes several times, but still said login failed. I would get the email that it consumed a onetime use 2FA code, but the phone still said "there is a problem signing in". I tried from gmail, hangout, google+ and it always failed. The time it worked i was prompted from the play store app. Once it worked, everything else started working too.

Anyone else? Was there a security policy update that could break this?

I don't have 2FA set up, but I did get the "problem signing in" prompt and had to reenter my password. It was for only one of the google accounts on my phone though. Wonder if google has a glitch earlier today?
