Which service are you using?

You need to switch to Custom URI Scheme: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2InstalledApp#creatingcred

And add an intent filter such as the one described here with AddActivityText: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2448213/how-to-implement-my-very-own-uri-scheme-on-android
