Android Spotify app fails to start

Problem: Android Spotify app fails to start (the apps starts and keeps showing black screen with big green icon in the center, that's it - no any standard UX features displayed, menus, etc)

When problem initially appeared:

I logged out from devices thru web browser on spotify.com under my account

What I did to fix the problem:

Removed SD card
Did clean reinstall several times (https://support.spotify.com/us/article/reinstallation-of-spotify/)
Updated phone to the latest stock Firmware
Switched between Wifi and LTE connections

Question to developers/support:

How can I force Spotify app to go thru full initialization (possibly network cache reset, starting app in special mode/flags, etc) ?
